Town Merchants
Instructions:
You're a merchant in the middle of a city. You start with 100 gold. Your goal is to earn as much gold as possible, by trading resources. You get resources from the buildings that you bought.
You take a building by attacking it:
You can see prices in the storehouse by clicking on the "repair" button - hit it once, to see prices of the wares. Click 2 times again, to see buildings prices. Just keep clicking it, if you want to see something
To sell wares from the storehouse, first block all the wares that you produce (in my example, only corn):
Then wait until your serfs are done bringing stuff to storehouse!* Unless you want your all goods brought to storehouse dropped!
Then, click on the "disable delivery" (closed doors icon) button to sell all the goods in storehouse.
Special buildings:
In the middle of a map there are 3 special purpose buildings. You need to click on Metallurgists/Gold smelter, to buy 1 gold for 50 gold (yes ^^). Stonemason will sell you 3 stone for 50 gold as well. Marketplace will sell you 1 fish, bread, wine and sausage, all four for 130 gold.
Basic tactics:
You need to take 2-3 buildings first. Choose some that make a kind of a basic resource only! If you get a farm, a mine, a woodcutter etc., you will have something to sell immediately. If you buy butcher only at the very start, then you will lose because a butcher can't produce anything on its own - it needs another resource. So, make swinefarms/mills/stables only when you have farms already etc. Anyway... if you have your first few buildings then remember that you need a few serfs and workers as well. Go for 2-3 workers (farmers/woodcutters/etc.) 2-3 serfs at start, then keep expanding. At the end you should have around 80 serfs if you want to win, but don't be too fast about making them or you will starve.
Also, you can send your hero to work in one of the buildings too. Just hit the "repair" button in the house, then go to its door.
