Buying and selling

Shop stock depends on the size of the settlement. Shops buy back at a third of the price, and never run out of gold.

Each smith also sells weapons of its own trade beyond the old patterns: one-handed ones in any hamlet, two-handers, bows and shields from a village up, the finer variants and the crossbow only in cities.

Selling

  • Shops buy at a third of an item's price.
  • A town's shopkeepers never run out of gold: they buy as much as you bring. A shopkeeper hired in a player city pays from their own purse, and stops buying when it is empty.
  • What you sell becomes part of their stock.
