It was 네덜란드편사... In google translate, it comes out as Dutch Braid. Should I change the name to "braid"?

10802
Its actually woven into a sheet, despite the name > .>

Make 60 men cut down trees!

Name the nau "Os Colonos Treze" or something :3

Also, make sure the carracks are moored correctly.

Mehmed sold the fur for 27806, and the sausages for 13225. He made 40620 ducats in gross profit, minus the 1% tariffs.

He then sold five of his barley crates at the brewery for 60 ducats, and 25 crates at the trade post for 44 - breweries had little need for the huge amounts of barley he had. He made 300 at the brewery and 1100 at the trading post for 1100 in total.

Mehmed then passed on some of his knowledge to the wool merchant. Impressed by him, the wool trader offered his wares at 300 per crate. It was a small discount of 21. He saved about 700 ducats, and bought 35 crates for 10500D. He also bought five boxes of western armor for 11490 ducats.

He could meet no sailswright that could sell a decent sail at 27548 D or less, so he just set sail for Amsterdam.

He entered port 1 day later, at night.

In Amsterdam, Western armor's price was at 2602 per box. He could sell at 13009, or 12879 after tariffs.
Wool was priced at 362 per box. It was 12655 for all 35 boxes, or 12528 after tariffs.

@Repulsion

It took 7 days to get to Venice. In Venice, bee wax sold for 1496 per box. Marble sold for 1395 per crate, and parchment sold for 1337 per box. olive oil sold for 380 a box, and olives sold for 278  per box.

@Tiruin

Juan's caravel docked at Lisbon. It took 13 days to get there : adverse winds did not help. He doled out 1950 ducat's worth of pay again. Satin sold at 4539 per box, as the market price had risen to 137% the past few days.

@evilcherry

Chico did not sell the brandy. The wooden statues were sold for 11352 total.

He then bought 30 coconuts for 8760, and loaded up 25 palm oil boxes for 5225. Or at least, he tried to. He could only load 7 boxes for 1463.

He then sailed to Casablanca.

Coconuts: 245/crate
Palm oil: 222/box
Brandy: 779/box
Sugar cane: 217/crate

Max ponders for a moment, and then as if INSPIRED FROM ABOVE goes sails to Casablanca!

His sloop approached Casablanca. He could see some large ships like caravels and carracks, small ships like vasa and brigs, and exotic ships like Turkish galleys, junks and even a ship-of-the-line. Who should he attack?

- Ex-naval sailor (vasa)
- Self-defense squad (vasa)
- Thief groups (vasa*3)
- Small merchants (caravel)
- España Navy Fleet (Ship-of-the-line, two large galleons)
- Turkish merchants (three turkish galleys)
- Chinese traders (2 junks)

Sheena and Annita carefully inched into the building. Annita opened one of the doors and headed in. With a sharp crack of electricity, she got shocked and was flung back into Lexx. Annita started convulsing; it was apparent she would die without a defibrillator. Which of there was none here. Her motions slowly died down, until she ceased motion. A cannon roared somewhere in the distance.

Griph loaded his disc launcher and shot at the fence. With a crackle and a bright light, there was electricity, then the disc fell to the floor. Griph cautiously picked it up. The disk was charred but otherwise fine. He only needed to wipe the charred parts. The fence looked normal.

Keena kept going. She was now stepping in mud, but there was no water to be seen. She heard a cannon blast in the distance, from the direction of the city.
(YAY puzzle)

Nabisco waited in the dark. He heard a muffled cannon shoot, but it seemed no-one was in his building yet - he hadn't heard the clunk of a rock slab.

Ferrel dismantled the elevator trap, and remade it so that whomever stepped onto his floor would be shocked. He also made the same trap in front of all the stairs. The power was drawn from the main power grid. He had to dig out some of the wall to access it. A sudden cannon shot made him flinch- apparently one tribute had died.

TIME: About 10 pm
Actions: Tributes - react to Annita's death, set up plans

Griph and Donitz continued along the road. Far away, they could see the lights of an encampment.
After an hour or so, they reached the Dugald Woodcamp. There were few people walking around, but at least there was people. Usually, monsters did not attack large encampments, unless they had a leader, or a motive to do so.

Revenge was sweet, and he might want something to trade with the formians in the ruins. Still the tremor concerned him. He wouldn't want to be on the road for very much longer.

The merchants slowly backed away, reluctant to drop their stuff, when their eyes widened and all turned tail, running as fast as they could. Zario slowly turned around, dreading what he would see. Behind him was a huge golem with a yellowish rock body with blue crystals embedded in it. The pegmatite golem roared and lifted both of its arms high in the air.



10807
Of course not! I just need to get around making the maps and you people need 25 plus levels to go elsewhere.

Oh, I know those :3 Best with a side of Ruby.

Haha, overreacted a bit because its been noted more than once>.>

Uncharted Waters Online is the actual game this is based on. I don't know why they translated as that, when the original Japanese name is "The Great Age of Sail", usually 1680~1860 ish.

I love how this is suppost to be 13th-14th century Europe yet the Poltical Borders are very Modern.


...Except you are NOT suppose to look at the political borders?

BTW, its actually the 19th century, and I couldn't be bothered to erase the borders ^^ Also, you are a bit late, considering Azthor noticed that first.


Think of it: there are muskets and cannons.

10811
May I harras trade lanes?

I think you're too weak for that yet... at least near major trading lanes. Go for places like Casablanca.

Xavier unloaded all of his western books. He was unsure whether or not it was a profit, though.

He then bought 35 sugar cane and 10 wooden statues. He set sail to Las Palmas.

The proud, unnamed Light Caravel reached port in two days. 290 in maintenance.

Because the distance was so short, and the culture almost identical, and most importantly Las Palmas also sold sugar cane, they would sell at 150. The wooden statues would sell for 1038 per crate.


@Tiruin

Juan sold 35 boxes for 250 each. He received 7895 ducats in return. He then bought 13 boxes of satin for 3156 each. He only had 617 ducats left. He quickly left for Paris.

The 9 days it took to get there, he doled out 1350 in pay and wrote out 733 ducat's worth of bonds to be paid at Paris. It was a good thing his crew were yet loyal to him - he had heard many stories of crew members pocketing trade goods such as gold nuggets, jewels or gold bars.

Juan entered port, to find many people panicking near the trade post. Apparently, someone had bought up huge amounts of bronze statues, numbering in the hundreds, and the price had spiked to 173%. Duck meat too had spiked to 137%.

Satin was unfortunately sold at Paris, meaning he could only get 2193 per box. He should go somewhere else. The crew looked disheartened but still did not complain.

RECEIPT
Fur 17 22032
Sausage 30 11070
Barley 30 1080

TOTAL 34182

He was able to use his knowledge of fabric and fiber to buy 5 extra than the amount listed.

Mehmed then bought a small spy-glass for 500 ducats and hired 8 strong men from the bars.

He left for London. It took 4 days and 600 ducats in pay to get there.

Fur currently sold for 1588 ducats: its price had risen to 119% over the last couple of days. Sausage could be sold for 428 per box, and barley 44.

Lexx approached one of the previously lighted buildings. Her NV goggles allowed her to glimpse a shadow of someone in the building. She glanced around at the tributes suddenly following her trail, suspicious and wary, before waiting for the prey to eventually come out.


Gail drew her serrated knifes and giggled while following Lexx. Keeping a safe distance from her, she crouched down and also waited.

Keena slipped her NV goggles on and kept trekking, while finishing off her edible berries. Still, no sources of water were found. The plants slowly started to change into those distinctive of a wetland. She saw some creeper vines, trees with darkish leafs. She brushed the ground with her hand, and felt it was moist.

Ferrel first looked out the window/wall on his belly with his binoculars. He could see some figures congregating around a building that also was illuminated like his building. He then checked the elevator - perfectly normal. He then checked the two staircases and the one emergency stairwell in case he needed to escape quickly. The glass wall seemed to be normal.

(The wall isn't strange :P It's just a glass and steel wall.)

Wikus prowled the streets. He noticed that there were a sudden increase in the echos bouncing off the buildings. He was pretty sure the bright lights were indicating the buildings with people in them. He entered the building he just came out of - thankfully, he exited before the Capitol seal - and searched for a tap. He found a bathroom on the second floor, and filled his bottle with tap water. He then remembered the fact that most buildings had fire detectors, with batteries, and a circuit box, to prevent the lights from announcing to the world his place. He first flicked every single circuit switch to the OFF position, and gouged them out for good measure. He then took a pot and stood on it to dismantle every single fire detector on the third and fourth floor. He got ten 3 volt batteries.
((D5 is said to produce power, thus the electricity smarts.))

Nabisco's heart started beating quickly. He could almost feel the release of adrenaline, the fight-or-flight instinct kicking in. He quickly flung himself down the emergency stairs all the way to the basement. The basement was pitch dark and perfect for traps and also neutralizes NV goggles, which needed at least some light to work. He quickly set up some slipping traps with plastic, and strung up twine with plant leaves to make a sound in case someone did come down. He positioned himself ready to attack or bolt right next to the stairs.

Griph measure the discs: they were roughly the size of his palm, serrated, and sturdy looking.

Dante chased after Lexx.

Sohac also followed Lexx. He carefully tread the street, in case there were "pods" that activated by the presence of people. Thankfully, none.

Tiberius swung his weapon and his head from side to side, making sure there was no-one there.

Cole also tagged along.

TIME: Roughly 10 pm

Actions: Tributes should either enter or wait.


Meta: Let's just say that some of you failed your spot checks.

Griph charged two firebolts and two lightning bolts with Donitz covering him. He sent them all at one skeleton. The fire was packaged in the lightning and arced at both wolves. They flew back a couple meters onto the ground, and whatever ungodly magic kept them going flickered out. The dark shadow on the hill melted into the night.

Zario called out pointing a blade at them, "Take your wounded and leave. You aren't a match for me. You'll all die like these two if you keep this up." If something was coming his way he would rather not be flanked. He tried looking left and right without moving his head away from them, leaving an opening for the merchants might make them think they actually stand a chance.

The merchants glared at Zario. They seemed to be weighing the pros and cons. Muttering among themselves, they decided to slowly back away without letting their eyes off him.

@techno: There are /some/ dyes, just not common. Off the top of my head, Tripoli sells a certain types of conch that is a dye.

Look-out reduces the chance of pirate attack, AND allows you to run away 100%

@Tiruin: Sorry, still can't understand :/? You can post your turns predicting what to do...
