Wood and Granite

[Mr Irrelevant]

I know when you do the economy tutorial you get a wood and gravel "farm", and since everyone gets these is there an over abundance of wood and gravel? Basically, should I even bother making more wood and and gravel to sell yet?? I don't want to waste my money, but also since labor caps at 3 days, I don't want to lose out on a lot of labor hours!

Also on that note, I'm quite upset there isn't limestone and iron in one port anymore, I was really looking forward to having a nice easy and efficient setup in one port...

When that one port is taken over then what do you do?

Gravel is pretty much a waste of time. Oddly enough, common logs are not a bad thing to make. If you sell them in an Iron or Limestone port, the weaponsmiths in that port will often require common logs for making cannons. You can always make a bit of money with common logs.

The devs have worked pretty hard to make sure you can't solo the economy. You basically have to work in a group to get most activity done. You can still set yourself up in the iron business using only two ports. There will always be a market for nails, mast hoops, and iron ship fittings.
