Trade Liason Ammo request
« on: July 28, 2011, 09:22:55 am »

Currently when you request ammo from the liason you can only specify "bolts" and they bring iron/steel (re: war) bolts.  I'd like to see a second category - http://www.olliemag.com


 (re: practice) bolts.Once dropped me luck - in the hands hold complimentary tickets to the concert 'Singing Guitars ". I keep to myself and wondering whom to call for the evening: the young do not go, but friends of middle-aged heavy to lift, and the word CASINO scare them away and act like incense to the devil. A week urged his colleagues - two lovely women who have few other places visited, and I really wanted to give them a feast, but they

roulette
 until the last minute and agreed to only one day before the concert. I had them both, and separately, to talk about the event in detail - about the fact that we sit at the tables, there will be appetizers, wine, vodka, juice, fruit, all beautifully served, that can be smoked, danced, laughed, have fun, enjoy life ...

 that it's free - a gift from the casino. In fact, at the table in this version is from half to three thousand. The fact that the casino every month made us such gifts, it was one of the most powerful incentives for games and fun. And very pleased to realize that you are a VIP-a player.

Well, yes. They are effective enough to use in combat, but also cheap enough to use for training.

Metal - only for combat
Bone - both combat and practice
Wood - only for practice.

I dunno, I once had a hunter with wooden bolts seriously wound an axegob.

Actually, i'd like to see that implemented for every type of good. You can request both gcs and cs silk for example, but only random metal armor and weapons.

This is a good idea.

Perhaps requests for goods made of specific materials should be accompanied by some extra fee or tariff on said goods, however (ie a slightly larger than normal markup)

I imagine the price would be higher through simple supply and demand if you request a specific kind of metal rather than any old metal.

Thus we need the reverse too.  I'd LOVE to tell the human rep that I want "as much wood as you'll bring" without having to individually specify "I want hickory, oak, walnut, mahogany, pine, birch..."

That's a very good point!

Wood - only for practice.

Man, have you ever gotten a sharpened, possibly barbed wooden bolt shot at you?

Here's a hint: probably going to hurt.

Indded, I would love to order "ores of iron" or "flux stones"

Have YOU?

Well, were talking game mechanics here and wooden bolts can be deadly when used against unarmored foes, they are lacking against foes wearing armor.

And "important" foes (FBs made of more interesting materials for example) usually shrug off wooden bolts.

On the other hand, you can make lots of them cheaply.
