Caravan of Shartak discussion

[Ahnaom]

I can't really commit a character to this cause now but I think this idea has a huge potential. It will probably be hard to make profits in PvP trade and gather the rarer goods. But you can always sell the things to the trader if the demand slumps for some reason. Also, this could be a source of lots of fun RP and interactions among players.

I have met a few traders who are doing their individual runs across the towns. Maybe it would be a good idea to talk to them in-game since not everyone has an account here or reads the forums. I will spread the message to my IC friends.

Also, Ahnaom might be interested in buying some of the things. And maybe I could even act as a supplier from time to time. Regular contracts probably won't fit in my play style but sometimes I like to sell things to NPCs. If you were in town, could trade with your caravan instead.

Yoda, you could add a clan link to the first post.

Is there a need for a monetary donation?  If I could be given a proper incentive, I could put up to 500 GC forth to the cause.

[yodas minion]

 Solemn, all donations will be accepted!
Yes i do suppose your coins would be needed and put to great use.
thanks,now would you like to pm me where you are and where we will meet up at. any time is fine for me.

[Swarm]

Your money will not be wasted!

A ponzi sceme would be nice, though

[Solemn]

As I said gentlemen, what would be my incentive for that chunk of funds!  Nothin' in this world's for free~

[yodas minion]

hmmm...

 We could offer 15% of our profit to you for the next 3 months.
this offer is negotiable.

[Ahnaom]

You haven't even started the business and there is already a shady extortionist that wants to rob you from the hard-earned gold.

[yodas minion]

The business will begin more when the war in wiksik settles a bit.

and yeah lol, already an extortionist.  

But i plan on having my alt "Merchant Yoda" get a higher level while im fighting the war in wiksik so that i can disband the COS and copy everything to the COS made by merchant yoda so i can continue to help wiksik AND do the COS. but im gonna have to watch out for when i make a run through wiksik because that might be tricky with my other alt being there.

[Ahnaom]

I would seriously advice you to keep business and war separate. If you get involved in conflicts, you will make enemies everywhere and it will become difficult to trade. Same for mercenary services.

[yodas minion]

hmmm...
   i see your point. crap!

[yodas minion]

Alright about another month and we will be on the move everyone!
Our first stop will probably be Dalpok, so any of you dalpoki's out there need something?

Just so you know, you can PM Simon to shift Founder Status to another character as long as it has clan leadership.  This is how a clan can have multiple founders.

It'd be simpler to do that rather than disband it.

And with that, I gladly give my donation to you.  It's en route, and I'm proud to say that this venture will start out exceedingly well funded.

[yodas minion]

Thanks to you solemn, and Ahnaom. This caravan will start out very well funded!
So hopefully business will be good. were working on getting mostly heavy swords/yeastweed. but there will be more things after we get the better goods bagged 

And i will PM simon once merchant yoda gets clan leadership. about giving founder rights to him and then having poisonous soldier leave the clan.

Yes. Your heart.

[yodas minion]
