Traders of the Inner Western Rim

Yes - players can communicate via PM WHEN they are in the same LOCATION. Just don't ask me to arbitrate on any deals you may make.

Alternatively -

The Granica Trading Corporation Loans Officer is very understanding. "Can't quite pay back the full amount, eh? Well, then we can add you to our "Valued Customer's Particularly Helpful Additional Loan Scheme." Pay us immediately the principal of the loan (the amount you borrowed), and pay back the interest as you can. Every turn you don't pay, the interest will increase by 20%. So if you still owe us 200 credits this turn, next turn we'll ask you to pay 240. The turn after, 264. Eventually we will insist on payment in full."

I will sell 6 trade goods for 80 each. 480 total.

I will pay back the loan of 1620 credits.

Pay 50 credits to Omai, in exchange for information. Buy 2 fuel for 13 each, 6 trade goods for 50 each. 376 total.

Jump to Corpfodi via hyperlane with 2 fuel, 6 trade goods.

Since the last loan went so well, Omai takes out another Standard Granica Station New Merchants Start Up Loan for 316 credits, buys 7 trade goods and jumps back down the mysterious western(?) hyperlane with them.

Sorry Omai - the New Merchants Start Up Loan is only for "New Merchants" who are "Starting Up". You have already had such a loan, and cannot apply for a second one.

I suppose I'll borrow from *shudders* the Friendly Friends instead.

@The Jabbawookie - I need you to confirm / edit your orders to indicate your actions regarding the loan situation.

I might add a narrative section to help you out...

As Omai Guidnesse approaches the Super Friendly Friends Bank they are approached by Thanat Churyd and Gunkev Storhepw. "Omai, isn't it? On the hook to pay off the start up loan? We are in the same boat. Don't need the full thousand, though, either of us. How about we borrow the 1000, split it 3 ways, and pay it back individually. Each take 333 credits, and pay back 666 in nine turns time. How does that sound to you?"

That sounds convenient.

I'll borrow 333 then, and edit my orders accordingly.

Turn 8 Market Prices

Corpfodi[19.24]

Demands Ardanium. Produces Cortheum.

Corpfodi has been recently colonised by settlers sent by the Granica Mercant Corporation, and renamed in its honour. The native inhabitants of this world (the Fodi) are primitive technologically, though they number in the hundreds of millions. They speak of an ancient enemy who conquered their planet centuries past and were only expelled after a devastating war that left the planet barren and poor. The planet has a breathable atmostphere, temperate climate, and humanoid suitable biosphere. The Corporation controls a Cortheum mine on the planet's southern pole. The local people desire trade goods, fuel, and Ardanium.

Trade Goods 50/80

Fuel 10

Ardanium 85

Cortheum 24

Darbagh[21.32]

Demands Cortheum. Produces Dedlanite and Fuel.

Darbagh is a troubled world with a difficult past. A climate disaster centuries past rendered much of the surface uninhabitable. A major terraforming project was undertaken in the last century, but failed. To complicate matters, Darbagh has become a place of refuge for people fleeing trouble from all across the sector. You can find every kind of alien here - crammed into the habitats that fight a constant battle against the environment. The atmosphere is thick, but breathable with a pressure mask, while the temperature is hot and humid. The population is not large, probably less than three million, but these are crowded into a few ancient habitats.

Trade Goods 50/80

Fuel 21

Cortheum 115

Dedlanite 48

Granica Station[18.29]

Granica Station – an interesting port in a storm! Orbiting a planet composed entirely of methane ice, Granica station has been built to help open up the Inner Wester Rim for trade and exploration. The Imperial Senate has granted a charter to the Granica Merchants Corporation to develop trade in this part of space.
