Original Post:

Time for a new Illy experiment! Introducing The Traveling City-Mart service! Ever wished you had another city conveniently next door where you could keep all those annoying cottages, take advantage of spare caravans, and have more options available to you?

Now you can! City-Mart is a settlement built from the ground up specifically to provide services to other players in return for payments in gold. It's optimized for mobility; all standard services are operational with Level 12 buildings, so City-Mart can go “on tour” throughout Elgea, vending goods and services all over the continent.

City Mart Grand Opening: April 13th

City Mart Opening Location: -18,436 in Norweld

SERVICES

Harvesting Services

Harvesting resources can be valuable, but sometimes it’s just not worth rearranging your entire city just to make all those gatherer buildings. And who wants to go through the pain of sending out cotters day after day after day? That’s where City-Mart comes in! Our cotters are well-trained in all forms of harvesting, from hides, herbs, and minerals, to specialties like grapes and equipment. We also employ harvesting caravans and specialist harvesters. We survey the spot with scouts, and if your request is approved, occupy the spot and harvest the resources. See Rules and Regulations.

Pricing:

1) Single Harvest Rental:

            Cotters

                        100 Gold [per square] [per cotter]

            Caravan

            50 Gold [per square] [per caravan]

Specialists

            500 Gold [per square] [per unit]

DISCOUNT! 10% off. For performing and providing your own survey of the square (with scouts).

*per-day charge is paid in advance.

Geomancy Department

Haven’t quite leveled up your Mage Tower enough for Nature’s Bounty? Didn’t have room in your city for a Geomancer’s Retreat? Never fear, come take a walk down the Geomancy aisle, pick out your favorite geomancy spell, and have it cast on the city of your choice! We can also gift a spell to your friends! (Don’t worry; we check with them before casting).

Pricing:

1) “Gift of” brand spells:

            50,000 Gold [initial cast] + 5,000 Gold [per day*]

2) “Nature’s” brand spells:

Caravan Service

City-Mart offers caravan rental services to provide players with extra trade capability. Caravans can be rented for a single trade movement, or for up to a week at a time. Once a shipping request is approved, players send the goods to City-Mart, and City-Mart then ships the goods to the destination. The player will receive a report when the request is completed. See Rules and Regulations.

1) Single Trade Rental:

50 Gold [per square] [per caravan]

2) Period Rental:

            5,000 Gold [per caravan] [per day]

RULES AND RESTRICTIONS

1.      Order Processing:

a.       When sending initial orders, please do not send any resources or gold to City-Mart. The order must be accepted first.

b.      It may take time for orders to be accepted and initiated. Please allow up to 24 hours for an order request to receive a reply, and another 24 hours for the order to be initiated. The estimated completion time will be provided when the order is initiated, and a confirmation will be sent when the order is complete.

2.      Business with War Participants: City-Mart will provide services to players currently engaged in war. However, City-Mart reserves the right to withhold any and all services (providing refunds where needed) to any player whose alliance is currently at war if City-Mart feels threatened or endangered.

3.      Harvesting near other Players: Where surveying a harvesting request, City-Mart will confer with any players within 10 squares of the spot, seeking permission to harvest there. If a third party denies permission, City-Mart will turn down the request. It is the prospective customer’s responsibility in this case to negotiate with the third party to gain permission to harvest there, and then re-submit the harvesting request. City-Mart must receive a direct confirmation from all third parties before the harvesting request will be accepted, even if the customer performs and provides their own scouting report.

4.      Lost Harvesters: Customers are not liable for any damage to harvesting units by third parties and NPCs.

5.      Caravan Movements to Blockaded Cities:

a.       City-Mart will not accept any requests to send resources to a currently blockaded city.

b.      If a city becomes blockaded in the middle of a caravan movement, the customer will be refunded the full payment in gold that they spent on the request, but will NOT be repaid for the resources lost.
