⛵ Trade routes

⚠ Spoiler: this opens in chapter 8.

From chapter 8 a ⛵ Pier can be built at the island’s edge — a deck over the drop. From it a flying airship travels a trade route by itself to the keepers’ islands your party has already visited.

• A route: what to send (up to 2 goods, up to 200 in total per trip), what to bring back with the earnings and how often to fly. The rest of the earnings comes as gold.
• Your goods are valued there (more than at the Trading post), and theirs are cheaper than buying at the post. The price wanders a little from trip to trip.
• One pier — one route. An airship on a route doesn’t go on expeditions: you need another one — build it at the shipyard.
• Not enough goods in storage — the airship takes what there is; nothing to take — it waits a day.
• A route can be removed at any time: if the airship is on its way, it delivers the cargo and returns.
• Colony guests also land at the pier — the route airship stays nearby until it flies off.
