Our company colony is located at 13062,2742! Invite people to be able to come buy from us to help us grow. Our members should be making 1-3 trips a week to buy from and invest in new construction at the Colony as well.
We're currently in the process of redesigning and redeveloping to as much R2 status as possible so please bear with the reorganization and reconstruction while we do this...
Of course this means we will need everyone to pitch in! You've all been so wonderful about helping to build, invest and run materials hither and yon... Please keep it up!
We have a landing point next door (south) to our Colony that offers foes lvl35-38 to fight or you can collect/procure rabbits, berries, logs, stone, rocks and cranberries to work on skills or sell back in London (or home capitals) for a nice profit!
We've come up with a plan for development which will be posted here (original design made by our own LittleJK).

| Picture Rendition of Plan
This next pic is the plan to go by... I've also included pics taken at the Colony to show where we are at presently so everyone is clear of the work needed over the next few weeks. It also shows how the colony works. Houses are important as they provide population required to build markets, bank, tavern, shipyard and archives that allow us access to industry and technology through recipes, ships and items special to the Americas.
This picture shows some of the reconstruction we're planning from where we are at to get to the Colony we'd like to have represented above.
You might be asking... How do I invest? If this is your first visit to our Colony then you'll be treated to a narrative (like the storyline) that shows how things are done and gives you the information we've provided here through pictures.
You may also be asking what products are available to purchase... Are there any specialties?
The answer is that the products change according to what we've developed (ranches, forests, farms) and what people buy/trade. For example, Herb Farms feed the Luxury Market; Forests feed the Wares Market, Mines feed the Wares and Manufacturing Markets; and regular Farms feed the Food Market just as the houses provide the population for our Colony to grow, build more... the more ranches, forests, mines developed the more products we will have available. It is all intermingled. Ships available only in the Americas will be available once we are able to build a R2 Shipyard. These are just some of the things we've found out through research from the websites and the closest understanding I've gotten from it. I hope I've shared it well and you have a better understanding of what our Colony can offer our Company!
Questions, ideas and thoughts can be shared in this area as to what you'd like to see, have seen, knowledge you've gained or things you may not understand :) so.... get busy with the typonese!!

What are the best items to buy in Europe to bring and trade at the colony. I kn ow on only my second trip there I had Armor and Cannons from London and they were a loss to sell there. Also does simply buying from one market and selling to another within the colony aid in the colonies growth? I hope to attempt my 3rd trip(first solo) to the colony soon and this info would help make it more beneficial to the myself and the colony.
ReplyDeleteIn addition to the information below... the items we have available change. Because of this, it's hard to tell if we'll always have cranberries and maple syrup to trade but there should be something that to buy that will sell at a good price each time you go.
DeleteBuy craberries and maple syrup to sell for the return trip to london. They are specialty items of the Americas. Lemon Oil also sells good. I bought lead ore then made into lead and it sold back well at market. Whiskey, feathers, paper, european armour and other types of "local specialties" will probably sell well too. I know paper did ok. Here's a link of a table put on the wiki listing local specialties... http://unchartedwaters.wikia.com/wiki/Local_Specialties. Unfortunately, in order to trade, I and other members have bought and sold at a loss to each market just to get trade up but there are items you can buy and sell at a profit if time is taken. There is also a landing point next door to collect goods that sell well in London and at markets in colony (stone, coal, rabbits, cranberries) depending on your procure/collection rank.
ReplyDeleteOkay so selling at a loss still helps the colony, that was my fear that selling at a loss would have no effect and simply be a waste of time.
ReplyDeleteTwo-hand Swords and European Armour sold at big losses to the colony so they are not worth bringing over. However Whiskey and Paper from London did resell for very nice profits.
