[Quarque]

Tricmagic, are you sure you have the money for those two bids yet? You only get the loot from your expedition next turn.

You also can't send Ins Kath to the arena yet. He is currently on his way back to town, so you can't give him new orders yet. Also the arena isn't open this turn.

[EuchreJack]

@Tric & Dunamisdeos: Since both of your goals are to accumulate the most wealth, and it's hard to measure the value of the items in your inventory (recalling that your adventurers are also items in your inventory), you should conduct a mass selloff by the end of tommorow.

*Jack assumes the crouching vulture stance*

[Quarque]

No, the value of goods is counted without the need for a selloff. See here (under "boring accounting stuff"):

Half of the trial is done, let's see how our contestants are doing:
TricMagic recalls the adventurer early to equip them with a much needed item. This means they make nothing on the expedition. Will future profits outweigh the costs?
Dunamisdeos joins as a minor partner with an established cartel. They seem to know what they're doing. What could possibly go wrong?
Find out on... FORUM RUNNER!

Spoiler: boring accounting stuff (click to show/hide)

So what is "wealth" anyway (i.e. how is the match scored?)
The most obvious form of wealth is money. All other forms of wealth are ultimately going to be expressed in it. (if you have 1 florin, that's 1 florin worth of money, obviously)
The second most obvious form of wealth is equipment and loot. Items are counted as the amount of money they earn if liquidated on the game's market (if you bought a short sword for 1.23 Florins, it is still worth only 1 florin.) Contestants may, of course, earn a greater sum of money by selling to other players, if they find willing buyers.
The third form of wealth is adventurer contracts.  Contracts are counted by their buy price (usually 3 Florins) amortized according to how much of the contract already ran out. (so if you buy an adventurer's 21 turn indenture for 3 florins, and 6 of those turns have already run out the contract is worth 2.14 Florins)
The final form of wealth is consortium shares. Shares are worth a percentage of the consortium's total wealth, calculated as though they were a player. (so if you own 10% of a consortium that has a florin, a short sword and an adventurer contract worth 1 florin, then you have 0.3 Florins worth of shares)

A1s?

Also of note, I don't think my Forum Runner opponent can get co-signed adventurers back to base without also getting others to agree with it. What is the nature of the Charter's goods? I'm really only telling her to return because they apparently can't be counted while on adventure. Otherwise I'd continue.

I'm not sure on the whole bidding thing, since I'd have the money to pay for it at end of turn. And that Armor and backpack is super useful for future expeditions.

[Quarque]

It's a rule everybody has been following this game. If it was possible to spend money carried by an adventurer as soon as you order them to return, we'd have bought the armor one turn ago.

[TricMagic]

Well.. As a question, can multiple people make adventuring parties?

[Quarque]

Yeah, you can send a party of multiple adventurers.

Before I forget,
ACTACTACT: Ms. Heiger 'Ratsbane' Iverson sleeps in a different haystack to recover as well.

[a1s]

Well.. As a question, can multiple people make adventuring parties?

You can:

• cooperate with another player to send an adventurer to a dungeon.
• send multiple adventurers to the same dungeon (except the arena)
• and, of course, you can do both at the same time (as Explorator's Union is already doing)

Tricmagic, are you sure you have the money for those two bids yet? You only get the loot from your expedition next turn.

You also can't send Ins Kath to the arena yet. He is currently on his way back to town, so you can't give him new orders yet. Also the arena isn't open this turn.

A1s?

That is correct. Also arena requires a ticket, which TricMagic may or may not have, but I'm just making a reminder.
