We don't know what scarcium's useful for other than trading, do we? Just thought I'd mention that incase we want to expand using metal at some point. Course, Scarcium will probably have some valuable uses later, but how much worth is one for construction, I wonder.

I'd love to see if there was a way to make the food more valuable, or to turn it into biofuel for trading, but as it stands I think heading to the ghost town's a good idea. I suggest the idea of selling another 7 food for 3 rifles JUST in case we need them for the ghost town.

You can make advanced stuff with it (like a laser, maybe?), and spawners. Not sure what else to do with it right now. a single piece isn't worth much but coins.

Can we try and find an oil-press? If we are a farming colony, having one will give us a huge advantage in trading.

We should also build a second farming area to increase our income of plants.

You need metal to build more farm,and you can barely hold it all as it is. But we'll see if there are any free oil presses after you guys figure out how much excess food you want to sell at once this time.

Guess we're going to need more metal to expand the holding area and farm, then.

Ok, looking at buying that aircraft using food. for the unfueled version, both choices mean 10 food sold. for a fueled one would be 12 food with 10 coins leftover.

If we take the more expensive variant, add in the 7 for 3 more rifles (if noone objects) and 9 food to feed us, that'll be 28 food used.
We have 16 plus 23 next turn, giving us 39. Taking away the 28, we still will have 11 food leftover. Seems fine to me! Handy having a farm giving us easy to produce income :P

Selling more than 20 food in a day will crash the selling price of it into the floor for the rest of the trading, there aren't that many metropolis here and they all have surpluses as good as yours most of the time foodwise. It would take more to do the same thing if you're trading with less well-stocked towns.

Don't forget about the smith, if you guys are planning to build anytime soon.

So we should make one big purchase (buying all at the same time) and move on before the plants filter out from each shop and the market crashes.

Shopping List (Order of Precedence)
- 1 Airplane (Fueled)
- 3 Rifles (For a total of six or something)
- 1 Oil Press
- ?? Metal (Or kidnap the smith)

Markets can't crash with fuel. We sell at high prices to unlucky people who run out. Although, we need to invent the press for that.

...Can we afford a spare metal to make a press?

You're only making it harder for us to make insanely huge profits. We now have to give up the sale of at least 1 food.

No you don't, you had 11 left. now you have exactly enough for a turn if a storm sets the field on fire or something.

Turn 3

Date: 12th January 2786

Many things are sold and bought today before you leave.
First, 28 food are sold, for 840 coins. Then you return to the airship merchant and buy it, fuel and all. He does not say if it has a name or not. Then more arms are bought. The smith sells you a oil press blueprint for 50 coins after smelting two rifles down. It needs 4 metal. You return the the Nomad Farmer with 30 coins, and head off towards the mysterious desert town to the south.

Anything you guys want to do on the way there?
