Hello Illyrians, I'd like to compile a list of alliance hubs on this forum post, or any massive hubs with good prices. Please submit designated alliance hubs for all traders to see below. Thanks! Gul'dan Alliance Hub List:

I'm a big fan of Newchapel. The success of Hedgor's has shown that it's possible to get a properly active hub going in the BL and I think Newchapel's location is close enough to the centre of mass in the West BL to act as a centre of trade. I'll be trading there and I hope others will too. And of course I'll be at Ludis with the rest of my alliance too. -------------

Thank you for the support hrand, I have lots of cargo heading down there as we speak! Hopefully people will help me with this project, or Illyriad's quest to define Broken Lands. I'd advise anyone else who wishes to participate to do the same! Gul'dan

| Hedgor's Haven, of course. I don't know that one alliance owns it, per se. There are traders from at least ten different alliances at HH. |

From a trading perspective it is ideal to solidify one hub first and from there increase the trading base. Enticing traders to come down from Elgea is not that easy. Throwing up four hubs is just counterproductive as it only dilutes the initial concentration of prospective traders as not everyone has a multitude of traders and vans available to dedicate to trading. This will then give BL a bad rep for trading as no one will be making trades and the overall trading in BL will stagnate or decline. Hedgor's Haven is beginning to take shape. Give it a chance to grow and entice more traders and increased trading activity to demonstrate that there is great trading in Broken Lands before there is an expansion into other hubs. Provide a solid foundation in Hedgor's Haven then look for a second strong trading outpost which would be more than likely in the west. |

Do as you wish, nobody is stopping anyone from focusing. There's always going to be criticism and people will continue to do as they wish. Thanks for the criticism and make sure to send a trader to New Chapel :) Also, this forum post is about compiling different hubs across Illyria. Helping trade players know where they can send their Traders for competitive prices. Not about one hub in the blasted lands. Gul'dan -------------

Its not criticism, its business. Before you expand your market or your business, you firstly solidify the market you are working in. Its not like I am saying you have to do this and you don't get a vote. If you want the best results in BL trading, you need to have a plan. Brand and Artham have actually done very well there. I am selling a lot to artham who has put up a few relatively fair buy orders. It is then up to artham to move them around to sell at a profit. |

It is taking some effort to build up Hedgor's Haven. I have been encouraged by the number of big and small traders doing transactions there. Time will tell if the activity is sustainable. That said, I have a million advanced resources moving towards Hedgor's Haven right now, plus ten thousand crafted items of various types. That's in addition to what I already have in inventory down there. While I think it's cool to start developing another BL hub, I don't think I have the caravan capacity or the gaming time needed to really focus on two separate BL locations, plus the Elgea hubs where I trade. It takes considerable bookkeeping to make sure my all trades are profitable, and remember where everything is getting shipped. I do plan to post another trader in the west, plus some gold to participate in interesting trades, but I will likely be mostly a buyer out west for now. |

Thank you. Well thanks folks. I'm helping with HH and and doing this project and that's is final. Hulk you may be right on the business, but there's never anything set in stone on how things are handled. Other things play a part, such as risk. Just remember to have fun Hulk and Brand. Have a good day, play your game, thanks. Gul'dan
