Storing and trading | Buildings

Storage types

There's never too much place to store your resources and materials - always make sure that your warehouses aren't overfilled and are placed close to crucial buildings used for production of goods and food. You can store your materials and resources in:

Storage Barn - a building where you can store food and luxury goods: herbs, coats and tools. It's a good idea to place your barns in various places on the map, close to houses and factories - it improves transport of goods.

Cost: 48 units of logs, 16 units of stone

The Market has the biggest range of all storage places.

Stock Pile - place where you can store basic resources like logs, firewood, stone or iron. You can set it up in any free spot - it's best to place them near storage barns so you have all materials in one place.

Cost: none

Market - you can place all available materials there, they will be used by villagers in the range of this building (yellow circle). Market has more capacity than Storage Barn, it's also more versatile, but a few people have to work there, so Markets are recommended further in the game.

Cost: 58 units of logs, 62 units of stone, 40 units of iron

Trade

Merchants arrive in your docks every year or two.

NOTE: Essential information about trade has been described in "Basic gameplay" chapter!

In the game, you can trade with merchants who deliver goods by rivers - they are a source of goods like cattle, chickens or high quality coats. To trade with them, you have to build a Trading Post - you can build it only near a river. Like the Market, it requires workers - it's a good investment if you want to breed cattle or chickens.

Cost: 82 units of logs, 80 units of stone, 40 units of iron
