Game guide › Market & trade

How do I send resources with merchants?

Build a Marketplace (10 merchants per level on this world), enter the amounts and the target village, and click OK. Each merchant carries 500 (Romans), 1,000 (Teutons) or 750 (Gauls).

Marketplace needs Main Building 3, Warehouse 1 and Granary 1.

  1. Open the Marketplace in the Village centre.
  2. Enter the amounts. Each "(max)" fills only what your free merchants can carry.
  3. Enter the target coordinates, or click one of your villages or a saved place.
  4. Tick "Save this destination" to keep it (up to 30 places).
  5. Click OK. Merchants deliver and walk home empty.

Merchant speed: Romans 16, Teutons 12, Gauls 24 fields per hour (x100 here).

Goods above the receiver's storage are lost.

A Trade Office adds +10% carry per level.
