my marketplace went up. i'll trade someone crops for any other resource. your crops should be okay, just make sure you have SOME kind of crop production. I think if it reaches zero, your stock will start to deplete. but yeah, someone needs to build a marketplace to trade with me, this way i can start sending my merchants over. merchants won't bring you back resources though...the person you are trading with needs to have THEIR merchant return to you with the goods. i guess i can be a hub to get the trade lines started. but, i do need some help in making my rally point as soon as possible. If possible, i'd like to send an escort with my merchants. i'm not sure about the whole deal with merchants possibly getting raided by opposing forces. I'd hope they have some kind of diplomatic/trader's immunity to combat and military affairs.
edit: gotta make that cranny too. 👍
