Text-white typesubmit>Buy now It's not worth what little gold you get. You may not be able to buy or get it.The game is won when you have 1.000.000.000 gold.Like I said in my previous post, don't ever defeat pirates. At the request of the publisher, this app has been retired.The precise amount of tribute seems to be random, but it generally scales with how rich you are. Due to poor game design, pirates have almost nothing but advantages over merchants.The biggest disadvantage of merchants is that they're occasionally asked to pay tribute to Gossamer. Douglas McGowan and Madame Tso are merchants, whereas Petra Gale and Gossamer are pirates. On the other hand, not fighting pirates allows you to sell all your cannons for extra cargo space.The four starting characters are divided into two groups.The least important one is that Gossamer's henchmen will annoy you with further tribute demands almost every single month from now on. This has three consequences. Fail to pay it back within the next few months and it will spiral out of control and become completely impossible to ever repay.Instead, I'd advise ignoring tribute demands altogether. Furthermore, if you're ever unlucky enough to get hit with a tribute demand at a point where you don't have nearly enough gold, it will result in a huge debt. You may be able to slowly get richer at first, but once you reach about 250.000.000 gold, the tribute demands will eat up your entire income and you'll never be able to hold onto any more gold for long.This will slow your progress down significantly, but it seems to be the only way to win the game as a merchant. Instead, you should focus on making your fleet as big as possible (I'm pretty sure the cap is 25 ships) and using it to store all your goods. Finally, you will sometimes get robbed yourself and be forced to pay some of the gold you're currently carrying with yourself.The only way to avoid warehouse robberies is to simply not use them at all. Unlike normal warehouse robberies, hiring guards won't prevent these from happening. What is significant however is that they'll also start robbing your warehouses.Petra Gale starts with a warehouse in Edamame, 3000 gold, a debt of 10000 gold and a smuggler two-master. Furthermore, he can't hire mercenaries at the alehouse. He gets a discount from the shipyards in Jia-Ching and Edamame, but not Shangri-La. Douglas McGowan starts with a warehouse in Jia-Ching, 3000 gold and a one-master. On the other hand, Gossamer starts with the single best ship in the game, so he will occasionally have to visit Shangri-La to get it repaired.Finally, there are some more minor differences between the characters aside from their classes.Finally, Gossamer starts with neither a warehouse, nor any gold. I haven't played as her yet, so I don't know if there's anything else to her. She initially can't go to Edamame because that requires a better ship. Madame Tso starts with a warehouse in Jia-Ching, 1000 gold and eight junks.Out of the two pirates, Gossamer is arguably slightly better due to his amazing ship. Don't play as them unless you want to beat the game with all four characters.
