Description[]

Merchants and traders do their business at the Trading post. There is always a deal to be made or a bargain to be had. However, merchants from far away tend to head for big and well known trading posts!

Building Information[]

At the trading post the player has the ability to make bargains to sell his goods for gold or to find deals and buy goods from other players for an amount of gold.

The capacity of your Trading post, is the total number of resources you can offer for sale at once and is increased with every expansion level. The range of your trading post is increased with every odd expansion level as well.

At levels 1 and 2 you see only your island and the immediately adjacent 1 island away.
At levels 3 and 4 you can see up to 2 islands away.
At levels 5 and 6 you can see up to 3 islands away.
At levels 7 and 8 you can see up to 4 islands away.
