Monarch offerings question
« on: September 11, 2015, 09:30:43 pm »
reading up on the wiki im a little confused about what they mean by offerings to a caravan.

Does it mean I give 7,500$ worth of goods(weapons, furniture etc.) to them?

If I ask sell my gold bars(100$), and they are selling me iron bars(50$), the 50$ they get in profit, is that what they mean?

Or is it just me giving them 7,500$ flat out?

Selling doesn't count. The goods need to be tributed to the civ leader, not sold to the merchants.

Reading his name would trigger it. Thinking of him would trigger it. No other circumstances would trigger it- it was strictly related to the concept of Bill Clinton entering the conscious mind.

Mark stuff on your side of the trade screen, and nothing on the merchant's side. Hit the o button. You just made an offering. Trading's different. Trading goes to the merchant. Offering goes to the monarch instead. The trader will say something like "I'll make sure s/he gets this."
