== Market and Trade ==<br />
<br />
Goods change hands at '''trade hubs''', through market offers or delivery contracts, and are moved by cargo armies.<br />
<br />
=== Trade hubs ===<br />
<br />
* A [[Trade Hub]] is a country fortification with a level. Each hub applies a '''tax''' on trades, set within the band allowed by its level.<br />
* Trades '''settle on the spot''': goods change hands in the hub's district, and you haul them with your own cargo armies.<br />
* Hubs can be shown on the map; [[NPC factions|pirates]] prowl the sea lanes around them.<br />
<br />
=== Market offers ===<br />
<br />
* Pick a hub and a good (each good has a group and a volume in m³ per unit), then post a '''sell''' offer or a '''bid''' with a unit price and a duration from 1 day to 1 month.<br />
* Selling '''escrows the goods'''; bidding '''escrows the coins'''. Filling a bid needs your goods at its hub.<br />
* The hub tax is previewed on each offer, and a price history is available per good.<br />
<br />
=== Delivery contracts ===<br />
<br />
* A contract asks a hauler to carry goods from a '''source district''' to a '''destination district''' before an expiration, for a reward.<br />
* Goods and reward are escrowed when the contract is issued; the hauler posts collateral and carries a '''sealed crate'''.<br />
* Contracts can be filtered by issuer country, maximum distance and relation (ally, neutral, at war), and the path can be shown on the map.<br />
<br />
=== Cargo and crates ===<br />
<br />
* A sealed cargo crate shows its destination, expiry and volume. Drag it onto an army to load it; it is opened at delivery.<br />
* The inventory window has four containers: district inventory, wallet, armies and crates. Drag between them to deposit, extract, load or unload.<br />
* Credits traded is a ranking metric.<br />
