Machiavelli The Prince: Enhanced Edition - 4X Trading Empire Strategy Game (2026 Update)

0:00 So, this is Makavelli the Prince.

0:03 So, this game came out a little while ago.

0:05 Came out in 1995, but we have an enhanced edition

0:08 that just came out uh just um just a few days ago.

0:12 Well, like a month ago, I think is when it came out.

0:14 So, it is now supposed to be it's on Steam.

0:16 It's supposed to be able to be played here on uh

0:18 on Steam and and run great and all that stuff.

0:21 So, we're going to try that.

0:21 This is uh your classic Forex strategy game, but it's all built around trade.

0:28 and we're building a trade empire.

0:30 So, we're expanding and exploiting and and uh not really exterminating,

0:34 but we are um doing all all that good stuff.

0:38 So, uh we are one of four uh companies at the moment in the game.

0:44 We've got 60 years to see what we can

0:46 do with this and I'll introduce what's going on.

0:48 We got a couple boats.

0:49 Everyone starts here in Venice and we're going

0:51 to go explore the world and build a trade empire.

0:53 This is a proper trade game.

0:55 I haven't played a real good trade game this this century.

1:00 Uh it seems like all the good trade games were

1:02 from way way back then when I was a kid.

1:05 Um so this seems to be one of those I don't know why I never played

1:09 this one when back then because it seems

1:10 like one of the games I would be playing.

1:12 But here we are.

1:12 We're in Venice and in we are in Venice

1:15 and we've got like a couple thousand bucks.

1:17 Uh we can do a few various things like um

1:20 we can go stop off and we can visit the church.

1:23 We can eventually become pope if all things go right.

1:26 We can run the town of Venice.

1:28 We can make our own towns.

1:30 Um we can if we're pope, of course, we can go we can call on crusades.

1:34 We can excommunicate folks.

1:35 I mean, there's a lot going on here.

1:37 And um we're going to see what we can do.

1:39 So, welcome to Venice.

1:40 Venice at the moment is creating glass and fish and and guards.

1:45 We have guards because there's pirates and and bandits and things out there.

1:48 And speaking of guards and bandits, I heard a scream,

1:52 which means you want me to tell you a story.

1:54 And I'll tell you a story about my dad.

1:56 Not that he's a bandit, but uh he was um went over to his house and he

2:00 he just finished this uh this model of of Mount Everest.

2:06 And I said, "Wow, Dad, is that is that the scale?" And he said,

2:10 "No, it's to look at." Anyway, here in Venice.

2:16 Venice, as you can see by the colored in.

2:18 These are all the the commodities in the game.

2:20 Um, they make glass.

2:22 They they provide glass.

2:24 There's 30 30 glass available right now.

2:25 No one's demanding it.

2:26 It cost 77 bucks.

2:27 We got a bunch of fish here that they have also 37 bucks.

2:31 And what we're going to do is we're going to go load up our boats and and horses

2:35 and camels and send them off into the world to go and try to make some money.

2:39 Now, we don't know what the world looks like.

2:40 We can we know about this.

2:41 We've got an idea because the world is sort of like medieval map style, right?

2:47 But this isn't accurate.

2:48 And so as we go explore the place, then we will find all these things.

2:52 We we have an idea that Rome is over there.

2:54 You know, we we kind of know the basics.

2:55 We know there's some city up there.

2:57 We know Bzantium is around here somewhere, Cairo.

3:00 And so we got we got the basics down,

3:02 but we don't know it's probably off a little bit.

3:04 So as we go explore things, we'll go uh find that.

3:06 So this game does have music in it.

3:08 And I guess they've changed the music.

3:09 So this was this has been updated

3:11 with by I think it's the it's the original folks.

3:14 So 21 years later they came in they've re

3:16 they've redone some things and made it modern computer friendly.

3:20 Uh they've also changed the music.

3:21 I don't really like the music though and I'm not

3:23 100% sure that the music is uh copyright or YouTube friendly.

3:27 So thought we go for a little Dwarf Fortress music

3:30 to start this one off with cuz I know that's friendly.

3:34 Um so uh let's go visit Venice and let's buy some things.

3:37 We got a couple boats.

3:38 Let's go buy some glass.

3:39 class is kind of expensive.

3:40 More expensive this time than I had than last time.

3:42 There's different ways of playing.

3:43 This is the um the uh the the world map that I'm on right now.

3:47 It has the world minus.

3:49 We can go all the way to Australia.

3:50 We can go like uh I think we go to Australia.

3:52 We can go all the way to Japan anyway.

3:54 Um the Americas are not in the game though because it's, you know, 1500.

3:59 Well, actually, I think I have 1500.

4:00 I don't know what it's 1600.

4:02 I don't know what year it is.

4:06 I forget what year it is, but it's not the year of of dealing with that.

4:09 So, we're going to go buy a couple

4:10 bits of glass because that's what Venice does well.

4:13 And we're going to go sell this glass somewhere.

4:14 That's the main idea here.

4:16 So, let's go sail about and go explore the world and find some things out there.

4:21 The game is randomized a little bit.

4:22 Even though we're on a a map of the world,

4:25 things change a little bit, especially like commodities and things.

4:27 And look, there's Rome.

4:28 We found Rome.

4:29 Let's go stop in Rome.

4:30 Rome doesn't make glass.

4:32 Rome makes fish and grog exclamation point.

4:38 I have the Monkey Island uh joke with the exclamation point.

4:41 Um so of course those are the cheap ones there.

4:43 We have a power just flickered.

4:47 I'm glad I have a battery backup.

4:49 Um we have um they don't have glass.

4:52 So our glass we bought for 77.

4:54 We can sell it here for 100 bucks.

4:55 Look, I made money already.

4:58 Oh, it's so nice.

4:59 Um we'll take some of that grog back.

5:00 We can go take a look.

5:01 And we so we only know two places cuz we know in Venice Grog sells for 77.

5:05 We bought it for 60 here.

5:06 So there we go.

5:07 We're making cash.

5:09 So we can go and get ourselves a little

5:10 bit of grog and make a little bit of money.

5:13 Just like that.

5:14 We have two ships right now.

5:16 We've got the little galley and we also have this cog I think is what this is.

5:21 I forget.

5:22 Um but it holds it has it has more space but it goes slower.

5:27 So we can also sell those fish elsewhere.

5:29 I'm just going to pick up more glass because

5:30 I have a feeling we're going to use it.

5:32 So, we'll pick all that up.

5:34 We could pick up some guards because those pirates are going to mess with us.

5:36 We don't want to mess with those guys, but we'll take our chances right now.

5:39 And we will sail about.

5:41 And uh there's my opponents.

5:42 I'm the guys with the with the birds.

5:44 So, let's go make our way over to like um

5:47 Antioch or somewhere over here to Middle East umish land here.

5:52 There's also a city right there.

5:53 What is that city?

5:55 Uh no, I'm not done.

5:56 So, we're going to go over here to uh to Venice.

6:00 And in Venice, um I want to buy I want to buy a boat.

6:05 No, not in Rome.

6:06 No, no.

6:07 Um in Venice, we're going to go buy a ship.

6:11 And with with my 900 bucks that I got left,

6:13 we could we could buy actually you can buy

6:14 a ship or I could buy a camel or a donkey.

6:16 So yeah, you see it look like civilization one.

6:18 It kind of looks like um Yeah, like that or colonization.

6:21 My colonization is also kind of that same look.

6:25 Um I think we're going to pick up a a donkey.

6:28 Donkeys are better at walking over mountains.

6:29 Camels are better for walking over over the sand.

6:32 We're going to grab a donkey and purchase one donkey.

6:35 We're going to purchase it in Venice by that group.

6:40 And we're going to go to Venice to that donkey.

6:43 What else we have over here?

6:44 We've got Oh, we can buy All right.

6:45 Right.

6:46 We can go to war.

6:46 We got mercenaries.

6:47 We can go take towns out.

6:49 Uh we can buy art.

6:51 I'm not entirely sure how the art I think it has sort of this value to it.

6:54 Um, we can go and um we can talk with politics

7:02 and so we can like persuade some of these senators.

7:05 They're all made.

7:06 These guys are all independents.

7:08 We're the four factions.

7:09 We're very powerful businesses and we can eventually rise up

7:13 our own mercenaries and all this kind of stuff and bribe senators.

7:17 Give him a little bit of cash.

7:18 There's a 20% chance that he will sway towards me.

7:20 And if he sways towards me, maybe he can put me in charge.

7:23 the the doa of uh Venice if we pull our cards

7:29 right or maybe we have a little sheainu or which however you

7:34 want to call that I could call the do doge

7:36 or the or the the proper way I suppose um let's go to oh

7:41 actually I can't work actually I should run my camel just

7:43 jets but we can load him up next turn we'll load up

7:45 my camel with some things and we'll go send him away to uh

7:49 well to march over over land and we will pass the turn.

7:54 So, there's different ways.

7:55 There's different levels of like difficulty.

7:56 We're on normal difficulty.

7:58 I skipped that intro screen.

7:59 Uh normal difficulty and there's there's three opponents.

8:02 Um and we have um 60 turns to to win basically.

8:09 So, these are the same folks, the same folks that remastered this one,

8:12 the same ones that did Empire of the Fading Suns.

8:16 Empire Emperor of the Fading Suns um just a few months ago.

8:20 I never I meant to play that one.

8:21 I never I never did.

8:22 Okay, there you go.

8:23 1302.

8:24 So, yeah, there's no Americas yet.

8:26 They haven't figured that stuff out yet.

8:28 Oh, well, a few of us have.

8:30 Um, this is definitely a this is a proper trading game.

8:34 Like, uh, markets are a thing and and playing the market is very much a thing.

8:38 This isn't like I've played, again,

8:40 this is why I've kind of mentioning I've played a lot of trading games,

8:42 but they're always very simplified in recent years.

8:45 Um, this is very much like if we buy out all of the um the glass,

8:52 then glass prices go up.

8:54 And there may be a strategy for that because me and the other three opponents,

8:57 we're all trying to do the same thing.

8:59 Um, we can also send inquisitors in and and we can kill some of their stuff.

9:03 We can burn their warehouses.

9:05 Uh, you can you can fight dirty if you want.

9:08 Uh, but we're going to go inland.

9:09 So, I think we're going to pick up some fish

9:10 and just load these these uh these donkeys with some fish.

9:14 We don't need any no defense yet.

9:17 We'll no defense yet.

9:19 There won't be any there won't be we need for it yet.

9:21 So, we'll send them out with uh with fish

9:24 and march our way over with the mountains here.

9:28 And you got your grog.

9:29 So, I can take the grog back to Venice or we can try

9:31 to sail around and see if we can find something else around there.

9:36 Um if I remember how to get back in there.

9:39 Um is beard too.

9:42 So this is like so there is uh that's how much demand there is basically for it.

9:46 So we could we can only sell so much.

9:48 So there's there like they will buy gems diamonds for 683.

9:51 They only demand one though.

9:53 They can they'll buy relics for 371 but they only demand one.

9:56 So we can bring a whole hall of relics and they'll

9:58 only buy one of them because there's not enough demand for it.

10:01 So you got to kind of that's the thing

10:02 you got to worry about because if you're we

10:04 can't just overload the market on one good because

10:07 then we'll overload the next the other town, you know.

10:10 So you got to kind of play that.

10:11 Um, now it is it not necessarily a bad idea though

10:14 to say buy our warehouse and just once the prices are cheap,

10:18 stock up our warehouse with it and then just sell

10:21 from our warehouse to to fix the prices a bit.

10:24 Um, so we could go back to Venice with the grog.

10:27 I think what I actually want to do I think do I have any do I have any cash?

10:29 How much money do I have?

10:31 Um, let me go back to Venice.

10:33 Uh, Venice and buy a boat.

10:36 I got 300 bucks.

10:38 I'm going to buy one more ship.

10:39 I need an exploration ship cuz exploring is a big deal.

10:41 We can go around.

10:42 We can find all kinds of things with exploring.

10:43 I'm going to send this guy instead of sending him over to Venice.

10:47 Let's go see what's going on.

10:48 Oh, it's Tunis.

10:49 So, Tunis, uh, they don't like us here.

10:53 They don't want us here.

10:53 We're not allowed to come into this city.

10:55 We can bribe them.

10:56 We can give them 2500 bucks and they'll let us only us come in here.

10:59 But that's a lot of cash.

11:00 It's a lot of money.

11:01 And look, we could sell that glass for 127 here

11:03 if we if we had the ability to do that.

11:05 But we don't.

11:06 So, we will not worry about Tunisia.

11:08 You know what?

11:09 They don't get my fine goods.

11:11 Triple E is the same way.

11:12 You know what?

11:12 I didn't want to give them my stuff anyway.

11:15 Bzantium.

11:16 Hey, how are you doing?

11:17 So, they will buy my glass for 70 for 121.

11:20 I'm buying it for I saw I bought it for 77.

11:22 Selling it for 121.

11:23 Excellent.

11:24 I will sell it all here and make some cash.

11:27 Uh they do have relics for 315.

11:29 Is that a good deal that we can sell at?

11:32 We can sell them in Rome for 383.

11:34 That's a nice 70 buck profit.

11:37 Rome's only going to buy one of them.

11:39 Um, they got fish for 70.

11:44 Is that all they have?

11:45 Yeah, that's all I have is they do have two of them,

11:47 but no one wants to buy more than one.

11:53 Well, Venice might well Oh, no.

11:55 There's a man, too.

11:56 So, we could run over to Rome for our two,

11:59 you know, buy the two, sell them over there.

12:01 Do we have enough money to buy all those?

12:02 To buy two of those?

12:04 Yeah, it's a quick 140 bucks.

12:08 I suppose that's what we're going to do

12:09 because nothing else is really going to be profitable.

12:11 So, we'll take we'll take those two.

12:13 I'm not going to buy anything else cuz it's going to lose money on it.

12:15 Uh I may want to buy a guard for this one because if I get attacked,

12:18 I'm going to lose 600 bucks plus my boat.

12:21 I'll be broke.

12:22 Basically, I'll be game over if I lose my ship.

12:24 So, I'm going to go ahead and pick up a guard and slap

12:26 them in there just in case pirates decide to come knock on my door.

12:31 And of course, we can we can do this this way.

12:33 Okay, we can say just go to Rome and he'll move over there.

12:37 And of course there's automated trade routes.

12:38 That's of course a deal.

12:40 Um and we'll be doing that a lot.

12:41 We'll be doing a lot of automated trade shortly.

12:44 Um he's already moved his way.

12:45 Uh how much how much money do I have left?

12:48 Did I have enough for No, 15 bucks to buy another galley.

12:51 I want to buy one ship just for running um uh exploration.

12:58 So each turn uh we've got we do get

13:00 an income 150 bucks just just an income to have.

13:03 Um we have oh we have we're paying our guards

13:07 uh 10 10 bucks and now we're 500 bucks.

13:10 Okay.

13:11 So he'll sell his sail his way back in there and it is 1303.

13:16 Uh Barbbero discovered Joseph's own sandal worth 400 bucks in Antioch.

13:21 So he's made his way to Antioch already.

13:23 This is my opponent.

13:23 Made his way to Antioch already.

13:25 He found a sandal of Joseph.

13:27 outrageous.

13:28 So, I want to find Joseph's sandal.

13:31 Maybe I'll find his other sandal.

13:33 Um, but not not today, I guess.

13:36 So, let's go back over to Venice,

13:37 and I'm going to buy that boat before I before I forget.

13:40 So, I'm going to pick up a small galley,

13:41 and this is going to be just an exploration ship.

13:43 I'm not going to I may pick up some goods just to have it,

13:45 but I'm going buy that one ship.

13:46 It's just going to go out and explore things because

13:48 exploring things is going to me a lot of money,

13:50 especially if we make our way all the way over to like,

13:52 I don't know, South Africa or over into Asia.

13:54 That's going to be good money.

13:55 Uh, Mr.

13:56 Grog here.

13:58 He's going to walk his way down to Cairo and sell it for a decent profit.

14:03 I'll sell those for a little cash there.

14:05 We have more relics here.

14:07 And we have a lot of grain here in Cairo.

14:10 And I think grain is actually a good deal.

14:14 We can sell.

14:15 We can't I can't get to Tunis.

14:16 I can get to Venice and sell it for 61.

14:19 Buying it for 29.

14:20 Now, that's a deal.

14:21 That's almost enough of a deal because

14:23 of the glass industry to do a trade route.

14:26 I think we're going to do a trade route.

14:28 So, we're going to do that.

14:31 Mm- I have that knowledge.

14:33 I mean, we know Marco Polo's He's been over there.

14:35 He knows what's When did Marco Polo do his thing?

14:38 1200s.

14:40 He's he he know he knows what's going on over there.

14:42 We He's told about us.

14:43 He told us about it.

14:44 We know about it.

14:45 Um, I'll pick up just two of these grains

14:48 and when I get that big ship back to Venice,

14:51 I'm going to send him down to set up a trade route for that.

14:54 Simple do that.

14:55 And the Nile is navigable.

14:56 Yes, we can keep on going down if we want.

14:59 Um, I'll do that with my exploration ship, I think.

15:03 Um, do I want to do that now?

15:06 We only got four moon points left.

15:08 Yeah, we'll do it now.

15:10 So, we can sail.

15:11 And yeah, most rivers you can sail down.

15:12 Oh, that's the one I didn't want I want to do that with.

15:14 So, you're going back to I was sending them back to Rome.

15:17 I'll send you to Yeah, go to Rome.

15:20 I squandered my turn, so I couldn't make it.

15:23 Okay.

15:23 And you keep on walking with fish.

15:24 We got Budapest, which I got a bunch of fish.

15:26 We can sell them.

15:27 We bought them for 35.

15:28 We can sell them for 66.

15:29 We could probably get a better profit even up further north.

15:31 Um, but that's not a bad deal.

15:34 If we can pick up like something that's good here.

15:36 178 for gold or 46 for cloth or wool.

15:42 Uh, wool to Rome.

15:43 World of Venice isn't a terrible deal.

15:45 81 bucks each.

15:47 Gold.

15:49 Gold.

15:50 Gold.

15:50 254.

15:51 Hey, that's that's a deal.

15:55 That's a deal.

15:57 I call that a deal.

15:59 So, um, so these guys are these guys are are making furs,

16:02 but they're also demanding furs.

16:04 So, that's why it's a little bit uh a little bit uh weird,

16:07 but um I think we can do the gold the gold thing.

16:11 So, I think we're going to sell these fish off.

16:14 We're going to pick up a little bit of gold.

16:15 We can't pick up all the gold because we don't want that much money,

16:18 but we can pick up four gold.

16:21 Um, and and a cloth and be completely out of out of money

16:24 and hope we don't get robbed and head back down to Venice.

16:28 And we could just do that route over and over again.

16:30 In fact, we can do it.

16:32 Let me wait a few turns before I do that because I don't

16:34 want to get to where I don't have the money to to do that.

16:37 Um, no, I'm done with my turn.

16:40 Here we go.

16:40 We got got no money this turn,

16:41 but we'll we'll cash in that goal and make some cash.

16:46 1304 uh Marosini, one of my other opponents has discovered the bones of St.

16:50 Christopher in Tangers.

16:53 Tangers is way way west 1275 for Marco Polo.

16:59 Oh, okay.

17:00 So, we know all about it.

17:02 We read those journals.

17:03 We we listened.

17:06 Anything down here?

17:07 No, there's nothing down here.

17:08 No, no cities down here.

17:10 Oh, there is a city down here.

17:11 Oh, no, there's not.

17:12 We thought there was a city, but there's not.

17:13 But, see, my map.

17:14 That's a good uh So, according to my map,

17:16 I should be I should be in in the Indian Ocean right now.

17:18 But our map is wrong because, you know, it's it's 1300.

17:23 And we don't know.

17:24 We just know what Marco Polo did because I guess that's why that's charted.

17:27 And we've sailed a bit down here.

17:28 We've never been around the Africa, so we don't know so much.

17:33 And so, we're we're drawing this out as we as we go.

17:36 So, into Rome.

17:37 Let's make some money.

17:38 We're going to sell all this stuff.

17:40 I'll keep my guards on.

17:42 What I was going to do with this guy is

17:43 going to do the whole route from Venice to Cairo.

17:49 So, I'm going to set him up with that.

17:52 So, I think actually we may pick some things up for Venice.

17:55 Does Venice want some grog?

17:58 Uh, they'll take it.

18:02 Do they want relics?

18:03 384.

18:04 I think I just sold this for 384, didn't I?

18:08 Yeah.

18:08 Yeah.

18:10 So, I think maybe Grog to Venice might be uh might be a good deal.

18:13 So, we'll just pick this up for now and then we'll go do our trade

18:16 route as soon as we get over to Venice to start up our our route.

18:19 I'll keep the I'll keep the guards on there because this is an important boat.

18:23 So, we'll send him over to Venice.

18:27 Start digging the Suez Canal.

18:28 Yeah, speaking of digging, uh we can build roads.

18:30 So, you can see this guy Tiger is real slow and like he's got 10 move points,

18:34 but of course it takes a lot more move

18:35 points to get over mountains than everything else, you know.

18:38 Um, we could build a road.

18:39 It's going to be expensive and we can set this thing in here.

18:41 So, it's like it's 300 bucks to put it in trees.

18:44 It's 500 for each mountain range you put it in.

18:47 So, that's a 1,300 Buren trade route or or road to get to Budapest,

18:54 but that's expensive.

18:55 So, we won't be doing that.

18:56 But, we get there in one turn anyway.

18:59 We could do multiples, I guess.

19:00 Uh, so we'll sell all of this for some real cash.

19:05 Oh, look.

19:06 I got so much money now.

19:07 And then I think we're going to trade about that.

19:09 I think we just do the um I don't know

19:10 if there's going to be enough demand for the gold,

19:13 but there maybe What else do they have in uh in Budapest?

19:23 Um, so they had Can I see what's just in the town?

19:28 Can I just see what's in the town?

19:31 Yeah.

19:32 Okay.

19:32 So, they had the wool and the gold and the furs,

19:35 but they don't have a lot of it.

19:36 They do have a decent amount of wool for 46.

19:39 And we'll 83 though.

19:40 So, I think we'll do we'll do maybe a couple gold and and a couple fur.

19:44 So, let's trade routes.

19:46 So, we're going to start out here in in Venice.

19:49 And in Venice, we're going to pick up glass.

19:51 Was that what we're doing?

19:52 Glass.

19:53 I forget.

19:54 I forget.

19:54 I think it was glass or fish.

19:56 I don't remember what it was.

19:57 Let me let me let me look uh clear it out.

20:00 Um we were buying glass for 76 and selling it there for 131.

20:06 Yeah, that's a pretty good deal cuz fish is still 66 and 3.

20:09 Well, it's still a good deal for fish, too.

20:11 So, let's go from Venice and we're going to pick

20:14 up a bunch of glass and uh you know, we'll do a little fish.

20:20 Yeah, that's fine.

20:21 And then we're going to go up to Budapest for the next stop.

20:27 Uh there.

20:30 And then when we're there, we're going to go and buy um we'll do a couple wool.

20:36 We'll do three wool, four four wool, and four gold.

20:40 We don't overdo the market.

20:44 Yeah.

20:45 Wine with the fish.

20:46 This is Venetian glass, wine, and fish.

20:52 That's That's good stuff.

20:53 Okay, done.

20:54 And there he goes.

20:55 He automatically goes and does it.

20:56 He's on his way making us some money.

20:59 Thanks, buddy.

20:59 This is my exploration ship.

21:01 Let's go do some exploring.

21:02 Uh, it is empty.

21:03 I guess we could load up with like some Oh, I don't know.

21:06 We'll give it a a couple bits of fish just to just to give

21:09 it something so we can go make some money while it's out there.

21:11 But we're going to go explore the world.

21:14 And I guess we'll make our way outside.

21:16 Uh we'll go past Iberia here and we'll we'll make our way out into the Atlantic.

21:22 Are we done with everything?

21:23 Yeah, I think we're done.

21:25 So now we got some cash.

21:27 Now that we got some money, we got to go make We got to use that money.

21:29 You got to have our money to make money.

21:32 And we shall do.

21:33 So uh one of the good ways of making money,

21:35 I don't know if we can actually do this just yet, but uh is the church.

21:40 Now we can hire uh cardinals.

21:43 Goodbye cardinals.

21:45 And remember, you know, you think businesses are powerful now.

21:50 This is this is this is business empire time.

21:53 Um, we can buy cardinals here.

21:56 And with these cardinals, we can vote in the elections.

21:58 If the pope dies, we can maybe get ourselves into the papacy.

22:01 But more importantly, every pope or every cardinal we buy,

22:05 thousand bucks will give us a hundred bucks

22:08 every turn because of the the selling indulgences.

22:12 um which is the more important thing.

22:13 So here in in 10 turns we we've paid off our first cardinal.

22:16 Now there's an issue because the cardinal he may die, he may get assassinated.

22:19 You know, all this stuff happens,

22:20 but it might not be a bad idea to look into that.

22:23 I think I'm not going to do it just yet,

22:24 but I will when I get a little more cash.

22:25 I think I'm going to make sure we get some more of that.

22:29 Um I I think I'll let my my big ship Where's he at?

22:36 There he is.

22:37 Is he back yet?

22:38 So you get back over here.

22:40 No, no, no.

22:41 Get back in there and I'm going to set up your trade route now.

22:43 Go ahead and sell all your stuff.

22:44 I'm going to keep the guard on there

22:47 just because I I don't want you getting robbed.

22:49 And you're going to go sell glass and Cairo.

22:51 And what were you selling up here from Cairo?

22:55 Wheat.

22:55 I think it was wheat.

22:56 That's what you're picking from Cairo, right?

23:00 Wheat.

23:01 That Cairo.

23:02 Cairo wheat.

23:06 Egyptian wheat.

23:07 Whatever you want to call it.

23:09 Yeah, that's a good deal.

23:10 and I will sell you uh glass.

23:13 You want glass?

23:14 I'll take wheat.

23:14 And this is a big big money maker here.

23:16 So, we shall make it money.

23:19 Venice, keep your uh your guard.

23:22 I'm not sure what the I saw this one earlier.

23:24 I'm not sure what the difference is.

23:25 I think I want that one.

23:26 I'm not actually sure.

23:28 Um take your glass and then you're going to go down here to Cairo.

23:38 And in Cairo, you're just going to pick up

23:40 a bunch of wheat and keep that keep that guy around.

23:45 That should be a good good moneymaking.

23:48 Yeah.

23:49 Done.

23:50 So, away he goes.

23:53 So, now maybe time to look into getting another getting another ship.

23:57 Yeah, we I think Marseilles is over here.

23:59 Yeah, we thought Marseilles is over this way.

24:00 But then Oh, actually that's good deal for fish.

24:03 Nothing new here other than grog and fish.

24:07 Um, I'll I'll say that I'll pick up some grog.

24:09 Maybe someone will want that.

24:10 I'm mostly using you as expiration.

24:12 So, we're just going to pick up the grog and then keep on going.

24:14 I think that you know what?

24:15 There's other towns over here.

24:16 Genoa's over here also.

24:17 Oh, Genova doesn't want us.

24:20 And Florence doesn't want us either.

24:23 What's it cost to get to get into there?

24:25 We'll have to see.

24:28 So, the only problem with going down the Nile is

24:30 is now we got to go or going up the Nile.

24:33 We got to go back down the Nile.

24:36 I'm not done yet.

24:37 I'm going to go buy another boat.

24:39 Um, what do we have in Bzantium here?

24:43 So, we had those relics.

24:46 I think what I want to do is I think here in Cairo,

24:50 I think I want to buy in Cairo.

24:56 I'm going to buy a donkey.

24:59 I might buy two donkeys.

25:01 We'll do one donkey and we'll kind of explore the place.

25:03 I think because I know there's big money to be

25:05 made in the Middle East and and in Africa.

25:09 There's real big money to be made in Africa.

25:11 So, I'm going to buy one donkey, one group for for the Middle East.

25:14 I'm going to buy another one.

25:16 Not a donkey.

25:17 What am I buying donkeys for?

25:18 Camels.

25:19 Camels.

25:21 Indiana Jones.

25:22 So, we're going to buy a camel for the other one.

25:24 I guess we'll send donkeys to the Middle East.

25:27 Um, and we'll see what we can find o over there

25:31 cuz I know there's big money to be made, you know.

25:33 the diamonds and and relics and good exploration going on.

25:42 Matt made us think we could get to the Indian Ocean,

25:43 but it turns out we were just in denial.

25:47 Oh man.

25:50 Okay, let's get out of here with our with our wheat, our Cairo wheat,

25:54 and go um we'll explore a little bit on our way over here.

26:00 There's Antioch.

26:04 There's our trade route.

26:05 Now we got money flowing in.

26:07 Excellent.

26:08 Um, Florence, what do you what do you need?

26:11 What do you want for me to bribe you?

26:13 4,000.

26:15 That kind of money.

26:17 Okay, let's get back over this way.

26:21 Someone want our our French grog.

26:23 There's 10 years right there.

26:25 Uh, so this is this is donkey.

26:28 Um, oh, we should put we should put something on his donkey.

26:30 So the donkey can have uh some some cheap.

26:34 Sure, we won't find any cheaper than wheat.

26:36 I'm pretty sure Cairo is the place for wheat.

26:38 So I won't put any more on that, but we'll send you out out that way.

26:42 Oh, if only they put a canal right here.

26:44 Man, wouldn't that be wouldn't that be profitable?

26:46 Same thing with you.

26:47 I'm going to buy some more wheat.

26:48 And we'll we'll notice here that though those prices as I buy

26:51 these, they're going to because there's a 13 available, there's 17 demand.

26:53 So those prices will go up.

26:54 I'll look at it next turn.

26:56 It's at 28 right now.

26:57 It was at 27 a second ago.

27:00 and we'll head out into the desert.

27:02 Uh there is a possibility of uh sandstorms to uh ruin our day.

27:06 So we'll try to uh not hit not get hit by those 1307.

27:18 Let's go into Antioch.

27:18 What do we have in Antioch?

27:19 We have cheap cheap relics and a lot of relics.

27:23 If we can find someone that will buy those, then that's that's good money.

27:28 So everyone just has everyone demands two or three though.

27:31 Well, Antioch has nine available.

27:34 We can get some to Bzantium.

27:35 It's not it's it's actually not that not that far.

27:39 So we can take a couple of them up to Bzantium for for some quick cash.

27:45 Spain Spain doesn't want No, not yet.

27:46 They'll get they'll want those relics in very soon, but not yet.

27:49 Give them some time.

27:52 Um, let's Oh, wait.

27:53 Let me uh let me sell you I'll say you those things

27:56 and I'll take up I'll take these two and I'll continue my way up.

27:59 Oh, I I got no money.

28:02 Um, go finish your your route there.

28:05 Oh, we didn't make it.

28:06 He did though.

28:10 Okay.

28:11 Tanger.

28:12 We can sell our grog.

28:15 What do you have here?

28:15 Nothing.

28:16 You don't make anything here but fish.

28:20 That's not a very not a very good deal.

28:22 Um I I'll sell these off.

28:26 Surprised they don't make anything here.

28:29 All right.

28:29 I'm not going to buy fish.

28:30 That's expensive.

28:32 Oh.

28:32 Oh, wait.

28:32 They got silver.

28:33 I didn't notice that was that was in there.

28:35 What are we selling silver for everywhere else?

28:37 Uh that's a good deal.

28:39 So, we'll take our silver and we'll run our way up.

28:42 Um we'll go north first.

28:47 We have a Spanish town up here.

28:49 Yeah.

28:52 And oh, those are cheap here, too.

28:55 So, we can sell this for 1980.

28:56 We can make quick 50 bucks each.

29:01 It's a quick 100 bucks.

29:05 So, yeah, we'll we'll dump those off.

29:08 And I think 250 is a good deal for for relics, aren't isn't it?

29:11 It is a real good deal.

29:12 So, I'll I'll stock up on these.

29:15 Hopefully, don't get hit by a sea storm.

29:18 Does this happen from time to time?

29:21 Oops.

29:22 Oh, see it said there was a town there, but there's actually not a town there.

29:26 Our maps are wrong.

29:31 And do I have the money now to pick up the other one?

29:34 Yeah.

29:35 Okay, so now we got two of those.

29:40 Let's go up this way.

29:42 We're going to go to Bzantium and sell them.

29:48 Oh, no buyers.

29:49 Oh, right.

29:49 Cuz you're selling it for 316.

29:51 Oh, yeah.

29:53 Oh, yeah.

29:54 Well, what's over here in over this way?

29:58 Um, is there anything that I want to look at?

30:02 Oh, I do want to show you.

30:03 So, I can team.

30:03 You can see they do have an army and at some

30:06 point we can go in and we can raise our own army.

30:11 Um, I forget where we do that.

30:14 mercenaries right there.

30:16 So, we could hire a whole group of 500 bucks.

30:18 That's my wealth.

30:19 How much do they cost?

30:21 660 bucks per turn to hire these folks in Venice.

30:25 And then we have to pay them uh obviously.

30:27 But, um then we could take them to somewhere like like Florence,

30:30 for instance, and we could try to attack these guys and take it out.

30:34 And we could we could either turn turn the town over

30:36 to Venice or we could keep it in our own name.

30:39 Um, if we want to go that way,

30:42 there's the den of iniquity where we hire denisens, arsonists, and slanderers,

30:47 and assassins if our opponents get a little uh, you know,

30:52 get a little too uh, in the lead, I suppose.

30:59 Um, then we can we can, you know, play dirty.

31:05 How's it going, P?

31:10 Um, next turn.

31:11 Next turn.

31:12 Okay, so we got we got two good trade routes.

31:16 We'll see if we can find some more.

31:18 We need to find another lucrative lucrative one.

31:20 I think I think maybe our money maker might be making our way.

31:23 Uh, either the Middle East might be a good one.

31:26 I thought there was a city there, but there ain't no city there.

31:28 Um, and it's always it's not it's not a unheard

31:31 of or it's not what's the word I'm looking for?

31:34 not ridiculous to say use Cairo.

31:38 Um I mean Alexander the Great thought this was a great idea.

31:41 Use Cairo as sort of our shipping port.

31:43 And so all the stuff that we can get from around here

31:45 goes to Cairo and then from Cairo we can ship it out.

31:47 So we just put a warehouse in Cairo and then ship it to wherever we need to go.

31:50 They make us the most money just because it doesn't sell

31:53 as it could sell a lot better in Venice than it can.

31:56 You know, you know what I mean?

31:56 So, if we find something like diamonds down here,

32:00 then we'll ship it to Cairo and then and then elsewhere.

32:06 Uh, this Paris.

32:07 Oh, Paris doesn't like us, huh?

32:09 What's it take to get to Paris?

32:13 Takes 3,500 bucks to get into Paris.

32:15 Do they have good What do they make here?

32:17 They make grog and they make cloth for 125.

32:21 That might be a good deal.

32:25 There's Calala.

32:26 And is there a town around here?

32:28 There's Mecca.

32:29 We can't get in the Mecca, though.

32:32 Catsina, you found the Ark of the Covenant.

32:35 What?

32:37 Oh, man.

32:38 Well, game over.

32:39 What else is there to do?

32:46 Okay.

32:48 I say this stream is complete because we we we got to go on a high note.

32:50 And that is that's our high note.

32:52 1,300 bucks for the Ark of the Covenant.

32:54 I think I want more than that.

32:56 Look at all that ivory.

32:57 Oh, that's good.

32:58 That's big money.

32:59 That's big money because ivory, we could sell it.

33:02 We could buy it for 100 bucks and sell it for 300 bucks in Cairo.

33:06 Now, that's a trade route.

33:07 And they're demanding 15 of it.

33:08 That's a trade route.

33:11 No, no, don't open it.

33:12 Don't open it.

33:13 Close your eyes.

33:16 Uh, yeah, there's money.

33:17 Okay, so that's going to be our trade route.

33:18 We're going to sell this wheat.

33:19 Oh, wheat.

33:20 Look at all that wheat.

33:22 Okay, we just made we just found ourselves a money maker.

33:25 I'm going to grab all this stuff.

33:26 Forget this exploring.

33:27 We are going in the ivory business.

33:29 Nothing wrong with that.

33:31 Um, and we're going to go um don't quote me on that.

33:35 Uh, we're going to go there.

33:38 Pick up a bunch of ivory.

33:40 And they want a lot of ivory in in uh Cairo.

33:44 And then we're going to go to Cairo and grab that wheat.

33:48 That Oops.

33:49 That Cairo wheat.

33:51 I I should probably put a guard on this.

33:56 What are the chances we get a bandit?

33:58 Slim.

34:00 Slim, I say.

34:04 Uh, no, I'm not done.

34:05 I'm going to go into that town I

34:06 just found and I'm going to make another caravan.

34:10 Um, a camel.

34:13 And where was that?

34:14 Catina.

34:17 Need a camel.

34:18 We could We could do a group.

34:19 We can do like five camels everywhere and really really haul some stuff around.

34:24 Um, that's fine.

34:28 13.

34:28 All right.

34:28 It's 1308.

34:29 It's not 2026.

34:30 That's right.

34:30 Ivory trade.

34:31 Good stuff.

34:33 Locally sourced.

34:37 Um, we have money now.

34:41 So now I think it might not maybe someone ask any

34:44 other way to make nice with the city besides bribing them.

34:46 Yeah.

34:46 Attacking them.

34:48 You discovered Noah's sandal.

34:50 Who?

34:50 What is this?

34:51 People just leaving their sandals everywhere.

34:53 Noah's sandal in Ngarod.

34:55 He's way up there is the next uh DOA election.

35:00 So um this is the leader of Venice.

35:02 So one of us gets to be chosen to be in charge of Venice.

35:06 Uh if we had any sway in Venice, we could worry about that.

35:10 We don't and no one else does.

35:12 And this is where we would go in.

35:12 We could bribe them.

35:14 We give them like some money and maybe they'll sway to us.

35:17 So maybe they will vote us in power and then

35:19 we can start doing like bribes and and I don't know,

35:24 we can mess around with politics.

35:27 Won't worry about that right now.

35:28 Uh we are going to miss around the church though.

35:30 I got some cash now.

35:31 So we're going to buy a a cardinal.

35:33 One cardinal, please.

35:35 100 bucks uh each turn.

35:36 I like it.

35:38 I want to be I want to be um I want to be pope so I can start calling crusades.

35:44 That's all I want.

35:47 Where are we here?

35:48 Oh, is there a Oh, I can get all the way through there.

35:52 Well, look at that.

35:54 Oh, no.

35:54 I can't.

35:54 Oh, that just goes to Budapest.

35:57 Okay.

35:58 There's not a good Bzantium Budapest trade, is there?

36:03 What do you have?

36:04 Fish and relics, but not very good deal.

36:09 No, I just want to see.

36:11 I just want to see Budapest.

36:13 Nah, not it's not worth it.

36:19 There's my Cairo guy.

36:23 Welcome to Calala who will buy my relics.

36:29 Got a bunch of cloth.

36:30 Bunch of tea cloth.

36:30 77 bucks.

36:32 So, we'll load those up.

36:33 And this this is my explor exploration ship.

36:35 So, we're just going to grab what we got and go over here to London.

36:39 I found the remains of St.

36:40 Michael.

36:42 200 bucks.

36:43 I don't think too highly of St.

36:44 Michael apparently.

36:46 So, we'll sell that.

36:47 Um, that's not a Oh, you know what?

36:50 Cairo to London.

36:52 So, we sold those.

36:53 That's what we make 40 bucks there.

36:56 They have a bunch of iron here and silver.

37:03 What do they want in Calala?

37:04 You want iron for That's 30 bucks a piece right there.

37:10 What do we have here?

37:11 Um, we have wool for 41, wool for 68.

37:19 I think iron is is the money maker.

37:23 129 versus 177.

37:26 They don't not a lot of big demand there.

37:27 There is a big demand for iron over here.

37:29 I think we just set this up this guy right now.

37:31 Oh, we can build a new ship.

37:32 We'll um we'll do it that way.

37:34 We'll keep this guy as my exploration ship.

37:37 Um, so you can see the differences here.

37:40 So, like the the large there's a large hog and small hog.

37:42 Small cog holds eight cargo versus six cargo.

37:45 This is a large and a small galley, which is four cargo versus two.

37:49 Um, they move real fast though.

37:50 And so, like this little guy with a four cargo,

37:52 he could zip back and forth multiple times.

37:54 We can make a lot of money, I think.

37:58 And we're in the business of making money.

38:02 Starting Cala.

38:09 You're true.

38:09 They don't want that much iron.

38:10 We're going to we're going to see about the uh how much iron they really want

38:12 cuz we're going to we're going to we're going to get them set up with some iron.

38:17 Um they want I mean that's a lot of iron.

38:20 They want like 15 iron or something like that.

38:21 We can do that.

38:23 We can do it.

38:24 We can do it.

38:25 Um Oh, what are you doing?

38:27 You want to pick up I don't know.

38:28 Pick up some some of this stuff just for the for the road.

38:34 Pick up some silver for the road.

38:36 There you go.

38:38 And let's make your way out of here.

38:41 Anybody up here?

38:43 Nope.

38:46 I think that was our that was our where we thought Mecca was.

38:49 Okay.

38:50 So, the new guy here.

38:51 Um there's probably a lot of a lot of ivory out here.

38:55 That's all I have though.

38:56 So, I'll I'll pick up a Well,

38:58 I'm not going to pick up any right now cuz I don't want

38:59 to fill myself with a thousand gold worth of ivory and then get robbed.

39:05 So, we're just going to do a little exploring on the river here.

39:07 Yeah, it's fine.

39:09 He doesn't need to have cargo.

39:10 All done.

39:11 Uh, no.

39:13 Um, new guy.

39:15 No, no, no.

39:17 New guy.

39:19 You're going to load up on from Calala.

39:23 You're going to grab Was it this?

39:24 Was it?

39:26 I think so.

39:28 Cloth.

39:30 Yeah.

39:33 Yeah.

39:33 Okay.

39:35 So, in Calala, grab some cloth.

39:43 It's a short trip.

39:44 You think there's going to be pirates out there?

39:49 And then London, we grab iron.

39:54 Oops.

39:55 Um, there you go.

40:01 Okay, go do that.

40:04 came with a 1,000 bucks next turn.

40:08 My opponent is also trying to like they are also saturating the market.

40:13 And so we'll see if we can Oh, the Pope is very sick.

40:17 Okay.

40:20 Okay.

40:21 He loads some things up.

40:22 He goes over there.

40:22 He sells some things.

40:23 He goes back.

40:24 So he can do two He can do both in one time.

40:26 That's pretty good.

40:27 Um the Pope is sick and I want my I want my hand in that pot.

40:32 So, we're going to go to the church.

40:36 We can buy another pope for thousand bucks or pope.

40:39 We can buy another cardinal for 10 for a,000.

40:43 Um, unlikely that we'll get anywhere with this, but we can try.

40:48 So, I'm going to buy one more cardinal.

40:49 And at the worst thing is going to happen.

40:51 We're going to get another 100 bucks each turn.

40:53 So, that's fine.

40:54 We'll get two votes in this uh who's going to be next next cardinal.

40:58 Um, that's fine.

41:01 So, let's go.

41:02 I'd like to explore above Budapest also.

41:04 I don't have any money now.

41:06 So, sea center.

41:07 Yeah, there's no Santorini here.

41:12 Um, where am I going to sell these relics at?

41:14 I got to get rid of these things.

41:20 Where's my I need to go commodities, don't I?

41:22 This one.

41:24 Commodities and relics.

41:27 So, I need someone who's demanding it and give me for Oh, wow.

41:29 600 bucks down there.

41:33 Wow.

41:35 And I bought them for how much?

41:38 I bought I bought them for like 1,300.

41:41 I'm going to make like 300 bucks on each one

41:43 of those if I can get It's a long way down there.

41:49 So, I could So, what I could do is I could I could go in I could I

41:52 could drop it off in a warehouse in Cairo

41:56 and then ferry it down with a with a donkey.

41:59 I think I I think we need a road here.

42:01 Cairo to that.

42:02 We definitely need a road there.

42:06 I think I want to do that.

42:07 It might be a a process.

42:12 It might be just cheaper just to dump it though.

42:15 Not worth the time.

42:19 just dump it in in Venice for right now.

42:21 For right now.

42:22 But maybe we'll look at that cuz they're making

42:26 two and they're buying they're buying two down there.

42:33 Yeah.

42:33 And we we can make roads and we're going to make roads pretty soon.

42:40 There's Hird.

42:41 We will sell them our silver and pick up some.

42:45 Those are pretty cheap.

42:47 Fish are pretty cheap, too.

42:48 But we're on the coast, so it's probably going to be always cheap.

43:00 There's got to be something else over here.

43:02 Okay, there's our Cairo business.

43:03 Oh, look how much we just made so much money.

43:05 We made so much money.

43:06 Okay, so now um we don't do that.

43:10 Now is road building time.

43:11 So, we build a road.

43:11 We're going to go like there.

43:12 100 bucks done.

43:14 Uh 300 to go in the desert.

43:16 Man, it's going to be expensive.

43:21 Then we're going to like We can't go

43:22 in the We can go like maybe over and then up.

43:26 That's only 100.

43:41 It's going to be worth it.

43:44 There we go.

43:44 We got a road to Cairo.

43:46 Now, my opponents can use this road.

43:48 It's not stopping them from using it.

43:53 Um, do we have anything else we want to do?

43:54 I don't think so.

43:55 I think we're good.

43:56 We have a lot of money, though.

43:57 So, now maybe we should wait and spend our money on something.

44:00 Um, what do we have?

44:05 Do we have any other real that that's real tempting

44:08 to get a route running just a quick little ship

44:11 running two relics from Buddha from Bzantium to Cairo

44:16 and then running it down along with the wheat down there.

44:21 That's real tempting.

44:22 I think I want to do it.

44:25 I was debating, but I think I want to do it.

44:26 So, I'm going to say we'll let's move this guy down.

44:29 We'll send him down here for now and we'll prepare for for getting that set up.

44:41 I for how many difficulties there are.

44:42 There's these are average.

44:43 I think there's like five difficulties.

44:45 I'm on the middle one.

44:47 Neutral neutral party won the DOA election and the pope has died.

44:55 Okay.

44:56 So according an army was spotted near Cairo.

44:59 Uhoh.

45:01 Okay.

45:02 So now we got to vote who who is going to win the election.

45:05 It can be one of us.

45:06 One of our companies can win the uh the people the papacy

45:10 um papacy and um the other ones are also um the different France,

45:16 Spain, Florence, Genoa.

45:17 They can all have their own vote as well.

45:19 I vote for myself.

45:20 You know, if anyone should be pope, it should be me.

45:23 That's what I say.

45:29 Okay.

45:29 So, instead of selling these things, we're going to buy a warehouse.

45:33 Um, I remember how to buy a warehouse.

45:37 2450.

45:38 Yeah, buy a warehouse.

45:39 And we're going to store these in here.

45:42 And what we're going to do is we're going to set up a route

45:43 and we're just going to go pick up some relics and drop them off down here.

45:46 Do you guys have anything else?

45:47 You have wheat.

45:47 We can sell the wheat up there in Bzantium.

45:50 So, our trade route for Mr.

45:53 Galley a little galley is going to be from Cairo.

45:58 Pick up some wheat and then to Bzantium.

46:03 Nope.

46:03 Bzantium.

46:05 You're going to pick up some relics.

46:08 And when you get to you're going to you're

46:10 going to store I for actually how that works.

46:18 I forget if you store there or store there.

46:22 There.

46:22 I want you to store the relics.

46:26 We'll see if that works.

46:27 I want you to not in Bzantium though.

46:28 I want you to store them in Cairo.

46:33 Store I think maybe we do this though.

46:35 I think do that.

46:35 You store those.

46:37 You sell those.

46:38 We'll see.

46:38 We'll see if it works.

46:39 Right.

46:44 Okay.

46:44 More money coming in.

46:46 And we'll keep on sailing around.

46:48 See what we can find.

46:50 Danzing.

46:51 Anybody over here?

46:54 Nope.

46:59 Where's all these towns?

47:01 There we go.

47:02 Now we can make it in one trip.

47:03 Well, okay.

47:04 Two trips.

47:07 There's the the London business.

47:12 How's it looking over here?

47:14 Uh there's still a good demand for it.

47:15 We're buying them for 37.

47:16 We're we're selling these for 117.

47:20 And back over here, we've got plenty.

47:22 We're buying for 80 and selling for 62.

47:24 I think I think we're in good shape.

47:26 Yep, we're in good shape.

47:29 Um, oh, there's the army.

47:32 Oh, there is an army in Cairo.

47:34 Oh, I don't want that to happen.

47:36 Where's my ship at?

47:38 My ship is there, isn't it?

47:43 Well, I'm sure I'm sure everything will be fine.

47:46 Uh, with all this money I've got now, we could look at I don't want to do that.

47:50 We could look at bribing somebody here if we see someone

47:53 that's got like a really good deal and a close deal.

47:55 For instance, this is real close to Venice.

47:58 So, we could like stock up on all these uh

48:00 this cloth for 62 and sell it in Venice.

48:04 It's like super close for 100 bucks.

48:07 40 bucks each.

48:07 We could also buy the glass isn't a very good deal anymore.

48:10 It keeps on going up.

48:11 But we could do like the fish back over there.

48:14 Problem is, is it going to make any money?

48:18 Or a thousand is too much.

48:21 How about Jenna?

48:22 How much are you?

48:24 5,500.

48:25 That's even more.

48:27 How much would it cost to just raise an army and go there?

48:30 How interested are we in in taking this place?

48:32 They got they got some they got a cannon.

48:35 I have actually I haven't I haven't actually attacked a town before.

48:38 I've been playing for a bit, but I have not taken a town.

48:43 And right.

48:44 Yeah, maybe better.

48:44 Maybe it might be better off just get more cardinals.

48:48 That would pay off more.

48:49 100 bucks each.

48:52 Maybe we just forget about them.

48:57 No, don't don't do that.

49:00 Okay, we got good amount of money coming in.

49:04 Cardinals are bringing in 200 bucks.

49:11 Looks like Marseilles and Tangier is

49:12 getting getting uh popular Budapest as well.

49:18 Okay, so here's the votes.

49:20 Uh I got my vote, my two votes

49:22 for me and everybody else voted for who's that France.

49:29 Everybody else voted for France.

49:30 What's France get the pope for?

49:32 Right.

49:33 Well, okay, fine.

49:37 Did I ruin this guy?

49:39 I think I did.

49:40 Did I ruin your orders?

49:41 Oh, I didn't mean to ruin your orders.

49:42 Um, so in in London, there you go.

49:51 Wait, no.

49:53 You're supposed to be Why did I mess up?

49:55 Um, London, buy those.

50:01 Go to Cala.

50:02 Oh, I have to click that.

50:03 Uh, and buy those.

50:06 Okay, there you go.

50:13 Yeah, France has seven cards.

50:14 They have got seven votes.

50:15 Yeah, but everyone voted for France.

50:20 That's how I feel.

50:21 No buyers available for goods.

50:22 Um, hold goods until buyers become No.

50:27 Um, what was that one for?

50:30 Oh, no.

50:32 A storm at sea.

50:34 My my ship and someone else's ship.

50:36 Oh, my my green ship.

50:38 No.

50:41 Did we make it?

50:42 We survived.

50:43 We survived.

50:44 It's okay.

50:44 It's okay.

50:44 It's just a big wave.

50:45 It's okay.

50:46 Ah, bandits.

50:47 Oh, I got no defenses on this guy.

50:49 This is the uh the Budapest guy.

50:50 He's going to get taken out by bandits.

50:52 He got squashed by bandits.

50:54 Oh, what a turn that was.

50:56 Oh, man.

50:57 Makes me feel It makes me think about that guy

50:59 that uh had the periodic table fall on him.

51:01 He said that the uh the cause of death was was exposure to the elements.

51:07 They They couldn't heal him.

51:10 They only bury him.

51:19 Is there any town?

51:20 Oh, this is the top, isn't it?

51:23 There's no Oh, look at those.

51:26 Look at those.

51:28 Okay.

51:29 Sell all that with that's a lot of furs and 500 bucks for that ivory.

51:36 We could sell it for so much money.

51:39 1,000 bucks for diamonds.

51:43 140 bucks for wheat.

51:47 We should get all that.

51:50 Yep.

51:50 Fur for those hats.

51:52 Um let's see.

51:55 So, like there's there's a $100 profit right there.

52:01 Who else?

52:02 Who else wants furs?

52:04 What do you guys have?

52:12 Nothing too exciting.

52:17 I wonder how how profitable it would be to do like a big a big route.

52:21 Like for instance, there's they've got uh ivory

52:24 for 100 bucks and they're buying furs for 500 bucks.

52:28 If we were able it's a long way,

52:29 but if we could get stuff from No all the way down there,

52:32 we'd make so much money.

52:34 It would just take a long long time.

52:40 Um might have been about not being able

52:41 to store the goods for the relic trade due to which was set to I think I there

52:45 might not be enough relics there to be to buy.

52:46 I need to check on that.

52:48 So that's like that's such good money there

52:51 if we can get that get that down there.

52:53 And there's also some pirates over there.

52:57 Um these guys first.

52:59 Make our way to India.

53:04 So I think it was here.

53:05 There may not have been enough relics for him to buy.

53:08 Where is he?

53:09 There he is.

53:11 I want to look at that guy.

53:14 He got his wheat.

53:15 I'm not sure what the problem was there.

53:19 How you looking?

53:19 You're good.

53:20 You actually have a defense on you.

53:24 But you didn't do any good because you got hit by a storm.

53:27 Guns don't help storms.

53:33 Oh, yeah.

53:33 It was Yeah.

53:34 Yeah.

53:34 You're right.

53:34 It was It's coming out of It's going out, isn't it?

53:37 Why didn't you sell the wheat there?

53:44 Come here.

53:45 select you.

53:48 Yeah.

53:49 Why did you sell that stuff?

53:52 Oh.

53:52 Oh.

53:53 Oh.

53:53 Okay.

53:55 Um where's his where's his orders?

54:07 So, he's the one that was doing Hang on a minute.

54:14 He's the one picking up relics and and those and he's

54:16 supposed to drop those off and sell them, but I had them backwards, didn't I?

54:20 Um I don't how to look at his trade route, though.

54:27 Um I redo his trade route.

54:30 I guess I'll just redo it.

54:32 So in Bzantium, you're going to you're going

54:35 to pick up these and I guess we store that.

54:39 Is that how I had it before?

54:53 Is it because Cairo got taken over?

54:57 What's happening with Cairo?

55:01 Cairo and wheat.

55:02 And maybe don't store that.

55:07 No, that says Cairo right there.

55:14 Why is it doing that?

55:16 Okay, clear it all out.

55:18 So, Bzantium, buy those.

55:21 So, I think I have to store up there and you go to Cairo.

55:26 We'll try that.

55:28 Store those.

55:29 Don't sell them.

55:30 And then carry that.

55:30 Okay.

55:33 Okay.

55:34 I think we're done with our turn now.

55:41 600 bucks for mercenaries.

55:43 I got 3,500 bucks.

55:49 I had a few folks around.

55:54 I might need some I might need to go take over Cairo.

55:57 That's going to be my my money maker.

55:59 Um that's just all this I don't know how art works.

56:13 I think this is a like to to sway to make people like you more.

56:19 Yeah.

56:19 Throw masquerades.

56:20 Oh, yeah.

56:20 Throwing parties, donate money to the church.

56:23 They like you more.

56:26 And then um oh, somebody's got some one of my opponents has some sway here.

56:34 And they're trying to sway things in their direction.

56:36 I don't really know how this one works all the way,

56:41 but they're just too they're just too much to get any success out of this.

56:46 So, let's pick up another cardinal.

56:51 I'm going to pick up two cardinals and I'm going to end the turn.

56:56 I'm going to think about what we can

56:57 do about getting stuff from Russia to Africa.

57:02 How we can go about doing that.

57:04 We could do a road down to Venice.

57:07 It' be expensive, but we can get a road to Venice,

57:09 Nogarod, and then uh Oh, Venice is getting attacked by by pirates.

57:18 I'm not really sure what happened there.

57:25 I see is okay because we're still trading there.

57:29 Is there another city on the end of this?

57:34 No.

57:40 The last game I actually finished, uh,

57:42 I did that last night, as a matter of fact.

57:47 So, what do you think of that?

57:49 It was a demo, but still still I'm still counting it.

57:58 So, we could do um it'd be such a long a long way our way down here.

58:08 Just about doing that.

58:09 Um, and then as long as we get the we the relics

58:17 the relics are going in there into Cairo and we're going to Oh,

58:20 I already have them in there.

58:22 So, I want to make sure we adjust if

58:24 I can figure out how to adjust this this guy.

58:27 Can I adjust your route?

58:30 Oh, okay.

58:31 So, when you're in Cairo, instead of buying two of those, pick up pick up

58:34 those two and it'll automatically grab it from the warehouse.

58:39 So now we can sell those relics down there

58:41 and that's that's going to be some some big business.

58:47 Um no garage we can have a road down this way.

58:51 It's going to be expensive down to Budapest.

58:58 That's kind of my goal tonight is to see if I

58:59 can get to an end an end uh game with this one.

59:05 So you may be in for a treat.

59:07 Or maybe not if I lose cuz the go from there

59:16 by C is going to be like I don't know six turns.

59:18 That's too much.

59:21 It's not worth it by then.

59:25 What What do you have here?

59:26 You've got a whole bunch of furs.

59:29 I We could buy a big boat and we can kind of river down,

59:35 but you can't really automate.

59:36 I don't know if you can automate drop just you can't just dump stuff off.

59:39 You have to have a town to dump it off.

59:44 Yeah, I I don't if there is a way of building

59:46 a town on the I don't know that there is.

59:50 If there is, I don't know.

59:52 We could if we get a Budapest, then we can then we can boat it out.

59:55 We can boat it there in one or two turns.

59:57 So, I think that's the way to do it.

59:59 So, I'm going to look at getting a road down here and then from Budapest,

1:00:05 we could get it or we could also just we could

1:00:08 donkey it from Budapest down to Venice and then boat it down.

1:00:12 This is our money maker.

1:00:14 And so, I'm determined to figure it out.

1:00:16 Um, I'm going to start just doing the the the basic way.

1:00:21 We'll worry about the um the roads and all that stuff later on.

1:00:26 We're just going to get a couple of donkeys.

1:00:30 Two donkeys.

1:00:34 Oh, I didn't mean to buy them in Venice.

1:00:36 Whoops.

1:00:37 I bought donkeys in Venice.

1:00:38 Um, okay.

1:00:41 We got That's okay.

1:00:42 Donkeys Venice is fine.

1:00:43 We're going to go to I always forget.

1:00:45 Always forget that.

1:00:46 We're going to go to Noar.

1:00:50 There it is.

1:00:51 Two donkeys.

1:00:52 Buy that group.

1:00:53 Another Oh, I can't afford it now cuz I got no money.

1:00:55 Okay.

1:00:56 Um Um one donkey.

1:01:05 Okay.

1:01:06 I got no money now.

1:01:07 I can't really say anything up.

1:01:07 I can set up tomorrow.

1:01:17 Yeah.

1:01:17 And you can you can build big big warehouses.

1:01:19 So I could make I think Budapest is probably

1:01:21 the better warehouse cuz it's it's on the river.

1:01:23 It's not getting attacked by people for some reason.

1:01:26 Um, lots of pirates over here.

1:01:28 I think what's going to happen if those pirates

1:01:30 get me if I had a warehouse in Venice, I think they would take my stuff.

1:01:32 I think why that is how that works.

1:01:34 All my all my loot in the warehouse.

1:01:36 So, Cyro is important to keep around.

1:01:39 Um, oh, someone else is already building a road.

1:01:40 Well, look at that.

1:01:41 Someone's already on this on this business.

1:01:45 Okay.

1:01:48 All right.

1:01:48 I'm going to sell you some fish, I think.

1:01:52 Oh, I see some glass glass from Venice.

1:01:55 So, who all maybe what I'll do is I'll go to these uh these new donkeys we got.

1:02:04 Where are they at?

1:02:05 New donkeys.

1:02:06 Here you are.

1:02:07 So, what we're going to do is we're going to start out here in Venice.

1:02:11 I was going to start you Well,

1:02:12 this is going to work out because we got plenty of glass.

1:02:15 So, we've got two of these guys.

1:02:17 So, we're going to set up glass and that should be fine.

1:02:27 And then we can go I think I copy it to you.

1:02:32 Yep.

1:02:33 Um I'm going to switch one of these out with a with defense though.

1:02:36 And then when we go up to Novod, which is a long way up there, take the road.

1:02:42 Um then you can buy all these furs.

1:02:52 There you go.

1:02:57 So, we have one defense for the donkeys.

1:03:02 Hopefully, one's enough.

1:03:04 Um hopefully um I will kind of drain them when I take this, but it

1:03:12 might not be a bad idea because if if I if I suspect,

1:03:15 which obviously I do suspect this because it's the only thing they have.

1:03:17 I suspect my opponent is also thinking this because they're building roads.

1:03:23 So they clearly have the same idea as I do.

1:03:24 So, I think it might be a good idea for me to build a warehouse

1:03:26 here and do a little uh little shenanigans by um um see if I can Well,

1:03:33 first off, buy my warehouse.

1:03:34 Uh warehouse warehouse.

1:03:37 Um I don't know how to buy a warehouse.

1:03:41 Oh, maybe I can't because I don't need any money.

1:03:42 That's why it's not asking me.

1:03:43 Yeah, I got 10 bucks to my name.

1:03:46 Um wait, let's go next next guy here.

1:03:50 Um, so I'm going to I'm going to buy as much of that stuff as I can.

1:03:55 It'll raise the prices.

1:03:59 Oops.

1:04:00 How'd you get messed up on your route?

1:04:04 How'd you mess up on your route?

1:04:08 I don't understand why.

1:04:09 That's kind of annoying.

1:04:11 I think I'm just hitting buttons and it's messing it up.

1:04:14 It's an old game.

1:04:16 So from there, it knows what to do.

1:04:18 And then there.

1:04:19 Yeah.

1:04:22 No, no, no.

1:04:23 Go back.

1:04:33 No, no, no.

1:04:34 Okay.

1:04:35 And then you are supposed to go back this way.

1:04:38 Why is everything Why is everything all ruined now?

1:04:42 Why?

1:04:46 No, not not like that.

1:04:54 Okay.

1:04:54 I don't know why my tra get messed up.

1:05:00 So now I should have a little bit of cash now.

1:05:01 So now we can go and we can load this guy up and buy a warehouse.

1:05:06 I can't buy a warehouse.

1:05:08 Oh, it's 250.

1:05:09 That's why I can't buy one.

1:05:10 So you know what I think I'm going to do?

1:05:12 I'm going to let this guy kind of explore.

1:05:14 I don't know if there's any any towns around here.

1:05:19 But if there is, we'll find.

1:05:22 I don't think there's any towns over here, but just there may be something.

1:05:27 Okay.

1:05:28 And you're good to go.

1:05:29 Right.

1:05:30 See, play by email is in this.

1:05:33 You may see play by email in there.

1:05:34 I don't I'm not sure what's going on with the font.

1:05:40 The Pope has called a holy crusade.

1:05:43 Oh my.

1:05:44 Against who?

1:05:48 How do we know who it's against?

1:05:55 Okay, that's all working again.

1:05:57 Where do I see the news?

1:06:01 Um, that's city reports.

1:06:08 That's exciting song messages.

1:06:12 Holy crusade.

1:06:13 Not against me though, right?

1:06:20 I don't know where to how to see that world map.

1:06:23 I don't see anything getting listed.

1:06:25 There's a couple of swords over here.

1:06:26 Maybe there's something going on over there.

1:06:33 Anything marked on the map?

1:06:38 Yeah, I'm not sure.

1:06:41 So, there is a crusade,

1:06:42 but I'm not sure how to tell where it is, where we're crusading.

1:06:55 Okay, I'm going to take those those hides.

1:06:57 We just go over to Hamburg.

1:07:15 He should use the rope.

1:07:19 Um, yeah.

1:07:20 We'll end the turn.

1:07:27 At the end of this, we'll uh we'll run

1:07:29 and we'll look at what a random map looks like.

1:07:33 Army was spotted near Samana.

1:07:38 And my boat is at sea.

1:07:40 It's about to get hit by a big wave.

1:07:42 Hang in there, buddy.

1:07:45 Yeah, I picked up one relic that time.

1:07:50 Must be full or out of them.

1:07:58 So, those things off.

1:07:58 Not the best price, but it's okay.

1:08:01 Make a little cash and I will pick up a couple fish.

1:08:06 This is my explorer.

1:08:07 So, we'll let him continue exploring.

1:08:14 Good call.

1:08:16 Um, maybe we'll see.

1:08:29 What if there's a I bet there's a list somewhere.

1:08:30 It shows me my best trade routes.

1:08:37 I think they're just out.

1:08:38 They're not making it fast enough.

1:08:46 So, when they go up there and they carry that that that fur down,

1:08:49 I didn't have them set up to store the fur.

1:08:51 And I should I should have them do that.

1:08:53 Those are my my guys.

1:08:55 Where they at?

1:08:55 There they are.

1:08:56 Not using the road.

1:08:58 Um, so your orders when you get to Venice, do I do it here?

1:09:04 Right.

1:09:04 Store in Venice.

1:09:07 Is that how I did it?

1:09:09 Did I do it here?

1:09:11 I think you're you're supposed to store those.

1:09:14 No, I did.

1:09:14 I did do it right.

1:09:17 Okay.

1:09:19 So, store the furs in um Yeah.

1:09:25 Same thing with you.

1:09:26 Oh.

1:09:33 Okay.

1:09:33 So, you store the furs in Venice and then when the furs show up in Venice,

1:09:37 I got to buy a a place in Venice.

1:09:39 Also, um I'm not sure how do I get in Venice without actually being in Venice.

1:09:51 I'm not sure I actually buy something in Venice.

1:09:59 Did I mess you up?

1:10:00 You only got You only have so much wine.

1:10:02 Uh, just go up there.

1:10:05 Okay.

1:10:10 Um, okay.

1:10:17 Venice is a popular place.

1:10:27 My oh my uh my the devil fortress soundtrack is over.

1:10:29 Let's go with some battle brothers.

1:10:33 There we go.

1:10:36 Okay.

1:10:37 So, you can continue your your route, buddy.

1:10:47 And then Let's go up here.

1:10:57 I don't know how to access the town while having a unit selected.

1:11:03 Um, it's this way.

1:11:09 There it is.

1:11:09 There it is.

1:11:10 Okay.

1:11:10 So, we want to go to Nograd.

1:11:15 There we go.

1:11:16 So, in Novearro, what I want to do because they're buying stuff, too.

1:11:20 I'm going to buy a warehouse.

1:11:22 I'm going to buy I'm going to buy all of these.

1:11:25 Fill them with this.

1:11:26 It's going to raise the prices.

1:11:28 We'll buy it from there.

1:11:29 I want more cuz when my guys get there,

1:11:34 I want to make sure I'm going to buy more cuz there a demand for it.

1:11:36 There is a demand for it.

1:11:37 So, price is going to go skyrocket here in a second.

1:11:39 That's okay.

1:11:40 We'll be ready for it.

1:11:40 I'm not sure it's going to be worth the money that I just put into that.

1:11:43 It might.

1:11:47 Okay.

1:11:48 And then when we get to Venice,

1:11:48 we'll have to buy another warehouse there, but we don't have money for it.

1:11:53 Okay.

1:11:57 Oh, no.

1:12:03 Let's go down here.

1:12:12 Anybody?

1:12:17 Oh, Timbuk, too.

1:12:19 Oh, they got cheap ivory, too.

1:12:20 Not as much ivory.

1:12:21 They got Oh, look at that.

1:12:23 They got diamonds.

1:12:26 They got it.

1:12:26 They got diamonds.

1:12:28 Uh, okay.

1:12:30 I would like to make money on diamonds.

1:12:33 Diamonds.

1:12:33 I can buy them for 285 here and I can sell them in no garage for a,000 bucks.

1:12:43 I don't know if it's worth all of this hassle

1:12:46 because I can sell them in Cairo for 670.

1:12:48 Is it worth the extra 400 bucks each?

1:12:52 That's 1,600 bucks.

1:12:55 That tower is a we think probably like the Tower

1:12:58 of Babel or something because it's like an old medieval map.

1:13:00 We don't know what is where everything is.

1:13:03 We just know maybe maybe Babylon or something.

1:13:04 I don't know what they know, what they're thinking,

1:13:06 but um these things kind of pop up

1:13:08 on the map cuz we don't know what where things are,

1:13:11 what things are, and so maybe it's something.

1:13:14 So, we're sort of speculating there might be something there.

1:13:17 Um we we got to take this out and find a way of getting it.

1:13:23 I'm just going to haul it around.

1:13:26 If I wait here another turn, will it give me four more?

1:13:28 Maybe I should just wait and see how many we get.

1:13:29 Let me get a guard, though.

1:13:31 Well, I need a I'll go ahead and keep them.

1:13:34 So, we just need three more and we can head that back up that way.

1:13:42 We're going to wait here.

1:13:46 Okay.

1:13:46 Next.

1:13:47 Is everybody where the dragons are?

1:13:52 Yeah.

1:13:53 Here be dragons.

1:14:11 Let's look at the city ports.

1:14:14 And back in Venice in Venice, we need to buy a warehouse.

1:14:26 Probably a couple of them cuz we can hold.

1:14:28 We're going to be bringing a lot of stuff in.

1:14:29 A lot of furs.

1:14:31 So, we're going to have all that so we can carry we can stash those furs,

1:14:33 which we can sell for 300 bucks here.

1:14:38 What are we selling those furs for?

1:14:40 I'm sure it's for a lot more.

1:14:47 Where?

1:14:48 Who?

1:14:48 Why is it here?

1:14:50 500 bucks.

1:14:54 Maybe this is more complicated than it needs to be.

1:14:58 Oh, we'll see.

1:15:01 Oh, yellow guy selling up the river there.

1:15:04 I do I do love these fancy graphical new games.

1:15:07 I sure do.

1:15:09 You know, I I found that um I don't really need that many pixels, you know.

1:15:15 Too many pixels, it just gives me a headache.

1:15:21 Something like that.

1:15:27 You guys want my fish?

1:15:28 Here you go.

1:15:29 Uh, what do you have here for me?

1:15:30 You got some silver.

1:15:31 I'll take it.

1:15:36 Oh, bandits.

1:15:37 Uh-oh.

1:15:39 Oh.

1:15:39 Oh, we killed one of them.

1:15:40 Oh, but he got me.

1:15:41 Oh, man.

1:15:44 Oh, man.

1:15:45 That goes my explorer.

1:15:47 I will uh Oh, hey.

1:15:48 Are we good now to have more?

1:15:50 I got two more in here.

1:15:51 I'm happy with that.

1:15:54 That's That's good enough.

1:15:55 Uh I'm going to run you over here and we're going to store that over there.

1:16:01 Oh, wait.

1:16:01 Can I um I could do this because I could there's a boat.

1:16:06 These these are connected by boat.

1:16:07 I could have a boat from Timbuktu to uh

1:16:10 this one and I could dump the diamonds off, come back, pick up diamonds,

1:16:16 and run it back over there and then run the diamonds up.

1:16:22 You're supposed to be in Ngrad and you're supposed to sell all that.

1:16:29 They went they went to 105.

1:16:30 It's still not that much.

1:16:31 So, sell those off and we're going to um guess I'll buy him from here.

1:16:47 Also, where' my guard go?

1:16:50 Is he on the other one?

1:16:52 Oh yeah.

1:17:02 Okay.

1:17:04 One left.

1:17:06 Okay, you guys can continue your trade route now.

1:17:08 Remember what your trade route was?

1:17:10 Um, no.

1:17:14 It's like in there.

1:17:15 It's It's weird.

1:17:17 So, Venice, same thing.

1:17:20 Yep.

1:17:21 to there.

1:17:22 Okay, continue your route.

1:17:27 When you get to Venice, you're going to store that stuff and then

1:17:30 we'll we'll ship it wherever it needs to go.

1:17:32 Uh, no, we lost our guy over here.

1:17:34 We didn't find anything over here anyway.

1:17:35 We should get someone else in Antioch and see

1:17:37 what we can There's the bandits right there.

1:17:39 Let's hire another another dude.

1:17:45 Um, a camel this time in Antioch.

1:17:53 And then um that guy in Antioch,

1:17:55 we're going to go ahead and load him up with um load him up with with a guard.

1:18:02 Maybe two guards.

1:18:04 Just one.

1:18:05 He's really just an explorer.

1:18:08 We'll give him two guards.

1:18:10 And we'll take surely the fish will go sell for pretty well in inland.

1:18:14 I think relics will sell inland very well.

1:18:18 There may be a city there.

1:18:20 We're not sure.

1:18:26 That's the yellow guy's boat.

1:18:27 Yeah, these guys here.

1:18:30 Uh Tino, who's working that?

1:18:33 I don't like it.

1:18:38 Another vote here in Venice next turn.

1:18:44 Is he doing anything?

1:18:45 He doesn't seem to be buying the diamonds, though.

1:18:46 What's he What's he doing?

1:18:47 Maybe he's working the ivory.

1:18:52 What's he selling here?

1:18:54 He's not selling ivory.

1:18:56 Maybe he's Maybe he's buying and selling diamonds.

1:18:59 I don't know what he's doing.

1:19:02 Whatever he's doing, I don't like it.

1:19:10 Continue on your Oh, did I mess you up?

1:19:14 I keep I click and then it messes it up.

1:19:23 Hang on.

1:19:28 Uh, yeah, you can I don't I don't you can attack his stuff.

1:19:33 Um, I think I do that here.

1:19:41 So, I can burn Okay, I can burn a warehouse.

1:19:46 So, yellow guy has a warehouse in Budapest.

1:19:50 I can only do it in one of these cities here.

1:19:54 Tang in Venice.

1:19:55 So, I can burn his his warehouse in Budapest if I wanted to.

1:20:03 Um, or I could I guess I guess slander him will

1:20:11 make people not like him like for the pope and all that.

1:20:14 Um, which might be important.

1:20:15 Like we got a we got a vote coming up here actually.

1:20:18 Anyone have any Oh man, this blue guy.

1:20:20 Oh, they all have power.

1:20:21 I feel like I'm a little behind now.

1:20:23 I guess I should have somebody on my side.

1:20:25 How about this guy?

1:20:27 That's a lot of money.

1:20:28 I get this guy on my side.

1:20:29 So, how has much money?

1:20:35 Fine.

1:20:35 I'll bribe you.

1:20:36 I'm not happy about it, though.

1:20:38 Oh, I got him.

1:20:39 Okay, cool.

1:20:40 I got one blue guy here is an issue.

1:20:43 So maybe I might know.

1:20:46 What's an assassin do?

1:20:48 Oh, I can kill I can kill a pope.

1:20:53 Um, okay.

1:20:54 Well, let's um that's how we get to that that screen.

1:21:01 Um I kind of want to slander blue guy.

1:21:06 Yeah.

1:21:08 I don't want him winning anything cuz he's got everyone that likes him.

1:21:10 Implicate another player.

1:21:11 Yeah, yellow guy.

1:21:18 Peaceful trading.

1:21:19 I don't think so.

1:21:21 I never say anything about peaceful.

1:21:32 Okay.

1:21:33 What are you doing?

1:21:33 Uh yeah, you're going you're going to go over there.

1:21:38 Oh, he's got a road in Africa there.

1:21:47 No, I walk on the roads.

1:21:48 It's just it's just a civilization habit.

1:21:50 Walk on the roads.

1:21:51 Old old timey civilization.

1:21:54 Um I'm going to see if we can like if I can discover

1:21:59 all you have to do is discover the town on the other side.

1:22:02 Actually, you know what I could I don't own Mecca.

1:22:04 How much it take to bribe Mecca?

1:22:05 3500.

1:22:06 Maybe we should find a way of bribing Mecca.

1:22:08 Cuz if we do that, then we get our then we can have

1:22:10 then the east is ours because we can't get any boats over there.

1:22:16 You know, there's no canal there.

1:22:17 So, we can't like get over there very easily.

1:22:20 Antioch is going to kind of walk us there eventually,

1:22:23 but we could own India and all this stuff as as we get over there.

1:22:27 If we get over there.

1:22:32 Big blue guys here now, too.

1:22:46 Someone said Barbero is an eater of worms.

1:22:52 That guy announces he is running for DOA.

1:22:57 Okay.

1:22:59 Elections.

1:23:00 Please choose a faction to support.

1:23:02 Well, I choose myself.

1:23:05 Actually, I maybe I should vote for the neutral party.

1:23:07 So then they may maybe we'll get more votes.

1:23:10 Um, no one's going to vote for Barbara.

1:23:12 I'm going to vote for him just to hope that he will win.

1:23:15 He that we don't want the guy to eat worms to win.

1:23:28 Our mapmaking, our mapmakers are very very bad.

1:23:31 Uh being away from Oh, no.

1:23:34 Oh, not this one.

1:23:38 Are you good?

1:23:39 Okay, he's good.

1:23:40 He's a camel.

1:23:40 He likes He likes sandstorms.

1:23:42 Being away from from the um the coast

1:23:45 also inre increases your likelihood of of um sandstorms.

1:23:50 Where's that road going?

1:23:51 I think it's going to Tangers.

1:23:53 I don't see it.

1:23:55 I'm curious.

1:23:58 I'll use it.

1:23:59 I'm going to No, I could sell these gems or I

1:24:01 could deposit them and then haul them up later on.

1:24:05 I may just tell this guy cuz that's a,000 bucks each worth.

1:24:12 Or that's a lot more money if we can move it up.

1:24:19 I think we're going to do that.

1:24:20 I'm going to I'm just going to haul this thing up.

1:24:23 So, head on up to Cairo.

1:24:27 We're going to make some real money.

1:24:28 It'll take us some time, but we'll get some money.

1:24:30 These little quick trade routes are working good.

1:24:36 The furs are stored in Venice.

1:24:40 So now, now that Venice is stored, yeah,

1:24:45 now is the time to start working on that job.

1:24:49 And so we're going to buy a boat.

1:24:50 We'll buy a big boat because we got a lot a lot of hauling to do.

1:24:55 So we'll take the large one large cog here in Venice.

1:25:00 We could always just do like a couple small guys together because

1:25:03 that's essentially the same amount of cargo space for much faster speed.

1:25:09 We need to haul I think eight is probably fine.

1:25:13 Well, seven.

1:25:14 I'll probably load him up with um with a with a defender.

1:25:20 Okay, so this guy now so your route is in Venice.

1:25:24 Pick up those furs.

1:25:25 I'll keep a defense.

1:25:28 Pick up those furs.

1:25:30 And you're going to Cairo.

1:25:36 Drop off the furs and pick up um gems.

1:25:43 Is that an automated thing that we want to do?

1:25:47 Yeah, I guess what I want to do.

1:26:01 I think.

1:26:10 Oh, there is a town here.

1:26:12 I found the bones of St.

1:26:13 Benedict here.

1:26:15 Hey.

1:26:16 Oh, there we go.

1:26:18 Cheap iron here in Baghdad.

1:26:20 Um, I'll pick up some of that.

1:26:25 All right.

1:26:25 Store.

1:26:25 All right.

1:26:26 Thank you.

1:26:26 Thank you.

1:26:29 I'll go ahead and load him up.

1:26:29 I'm sure we'll find some place to sell some iron.

1:26:36 So, yeah, he when he gets to he needs to store I can't get my head around this.

1:26:46 He needs to store in Cairo.

1:26:54 No.

1:26:55 Yeah, he needs to store the furs in Cairo, right?

1:26:58 Am I right about this?

1:26:59 Help me out with this.

1:27:01 What does he store?

1:27:02 He stores in Cairo.

1:27:04 Furs, I think.

1:27:10 I do have a warehouse here.

1:27:13 Store in Cairo.

1:27:13 Okay, thank you.

1:27:15 Um, Cro already has a bunch of stuff there.

1:27:20 Um, and those relics are supposed to be going to um, well,

1:27:24 they are they are going they're just going where we buy another warehouse buy.

1:27:29 It's only 250 bucks.

1:27:30 We'll buy another warehouse so we can make

1:27:31 sure we have space for all that stuff.

1:27:35 Okay.

1:27:39 So, what do you buy uh, iron for?

1:27:42 65.

1:27:46 Is that all you have is is iron.

1:27:49 iron and fish for 78.

1:27:53 That could be a a that could be a little quick trade route right there.

1:27:56 Probably pretty easy one.

1:28:01 Let's do it.

1:28:03 So, we'll make another one of these guys.

1:28:05 We're going to go from Baghdad.

1:28:06 We're going to pick up um what is it?

1:28:08 Fish.

1:28:09 No, my memory.

1:28:13 In Baghdad, you pick up right iron.

1:28:15 Of course, iron.

1:28:16 And then from here you grab uh fish.

1:28:19 I guess 78 sell for 105.

1:28:21 They have big demand for it.

1:28:24 So right, Baghdad iron.

1:28:28 We'll just keep one defense this time.

1:28:33 And then um we go to Antioch.

1:28:38 We keep our guard and we we buy fish.

1:28:44 Okay.

1:28:47 There you go.

1:28:48 Uh thing next to fish the the defense.

1:28:51 That's the the guards.

1:28:54 That what you mean?

1:28:58 Money starting to pile up.

1:29:01 Oh, left of the fish.

1:29:02 Oh, I'll look.

1:29:12 Neutral party one.

1:29:13 Hooray.

1:29:14 Oh, it didn't tell me the the votes.

1:29:17 Oh, the storm at sea here.

1:29:18 There's a lot of storms here.

1:29:20 Oh, no.

1:29:21 I lost my boat.

1:29:22 Oh, man.

1:29:23 That's my Which which boat was that?

1:29:27 That's my problem is if you lose one, you got to remember what it was.

1:29:30 I think it was the relic one.

1:29:32 We deal with the relics.

1:29:34 So, there's a bunch of relics in Cairo.

1:29:38 And where those relics supposed to be going?

1:29:41 They're supposed to be going here eventually.

1:29:43 I don't think I have that route set up yet, I don't think.

1:29:45 Do I?

1:29:46 That's what What are you doing?

1:29:47 You're carrying that stuff and No, no, no, no.

1:29:50 Um, me click that guy.

1:29:54 No, don't.

1:29:55 Just let me click the guy.

1:30:02 It was wheat and relics.

1:30:03 I think it was buying wheat in Cairo and relics, I think, in Bzantium.

1:30:12 And the relics are here in Cairo because we're going to we're going

1:30:16 to we're supposed to ship them down here which is what Where's my Okay,

1:30:22 there's got to be for orders trade groups.

1:30:26 So he's the it's him.

1:30:29 He's taking the He's taking the relics down.

1:30:36 So um Oh, sandtorm.

1:30:39 Okay, he made it.

1:30:47 So, yes.

1:30:47 So, he's carrying two relics down here to sell.

1:30:50 He could probably get away with doing more

1:30:51 than two cuz we're starting to pile them up.

1:30:56 do that.

1:31:15 Okay, you're my explorer.

1:31:17 So, in Bzantium, we are buying relics cuz relics I think are the cheapest there.

1:31:27 Oh, they're real cheap in Mecca.

1:31:31 Antioch has a ton of them.

1:31:37 So, Antioch to Timbuk 2 or or or either a Catsina is also fine.

1:31:41 It only requires It only demands two.

1:31:42 That's why I was only doing two cuz it only demands two.

1:31:44 That's why.

1:31:48 So, we should switch it over from Antioch

1:31:50 over there because we can grab Antioch really easy.

1:31:55 That should be the new one.

1:31:56 And I should switch that tray about around, shouldn't I?

1:32:03 Is it you?

1:32:04 No, you.

1:32:07 Okay, back to that.

1:32:09 Let's get a new ship purchased in We'll purchase in Antioch.

1:32:16 one uh just a little guy small galley by that and you see

1:32:31 oh cloves was there was there clothes in Antioch no not making Okay.

1:32:47 So, the ship there, the other one.

1:32:51 I can't control him yet.

1:32:52 I'll get him next turn.

1:33:05 Does that go Oh, it does go all the way up there.

1:33:10 Maybe we'll find a better route down in South Africa.

1:33:13 I wonder.

1:33:24 This is a new one.

1:33:25 So, his job is to pick up a couple of relics here and store them in Cairo.

1:33:34 In Cairo, I don't know.

1:33:35 Pick up some wheat.

1:33:38 I'm not really sure.

1:33:39 I'm not really concerned about um making a lot of money here.

1:33:43 They'll buy they'll buy the rate with the wheat.

1:33:58 Everyone's using that road there.

1:34:04 Tino began constructing the family villa.

1:34:08 Oh.

1:34:10 appointed me.

1:34:12 Me council head.

1:34:13 Oh, you shouldn't have.

1:34:17 Thanks.

1:34:18 Thanks, buddy.

1:34:23 All right.

1:34:24 Well, you always if you ever wanted to rule Venice, now is your chance.

1:34:28 Um, I don't even know what I do as as council head.

1:34:31 So, what do I do?

1:34:32 I haven't done this before, so I don't know what I do with this.

1:34:36 Um uh change positions turn after the election.

1:34:39 What do I do?

1:34:42 You put me at like you put me there.

1:34:46 I got you assigned me a post.

1:34:47 I appreciate that.

1:34:48 I don't really know what I do with that though.

1:34:54 43%.

1:34:54 What are you at?

1:34:55 40.

1:34:55 What?

1:34:56 45 57 44.

1:35:00 I got a lot more money than these guys though.

1:35:03 And we all know money is more important.

1:35:12 I'm just curious what would happen, you know,

1:35:13 say say we went say we went to Budapest and maybe we burned something down.

1:35:22 He has a villa.

1:35:23 Can I burn his villa down?

1:35:25 That would be funny.

1:35:29 For 1,000 bucks.

1:35:31 Yeah.

1:35:31 Oh, success.

1:35:33 Uh, implicate.

1:35:34 Yeah.

1:35:34 Yeah, it was definitely blue guy.

1:35:37 How do I make my own villa?

1:35:40 I want my own villa.

1:35:41 I don't know how to do that.

1:35:52 Politics.

1:35:52 It looks like it's that, but that's not it.

1:35:58 I definitely have the more money than anyone else.

1:36:01 And I'm at cabin boy.

1:36:03 Oh, it's like the old micropro way.

1:36:07 So, I'm definitely screaming into the lead here.

1:36:11 I don't know how to build build a villa

1:36:13 and I feel like that's something I should be doing.

1:36:15 Probably something we do here in Venice.

1:36:20 I don't know how they have an army.

1:36:30 They have They have an army also.

1:36:35 Is there a city over here?

1:36:40 What are you doing over here?

1:36:46 Oh, I'll go look at the art.

1:36:47 Yeah, that might be it.

1:36:48 In the art.

1:36:50 So, here.

1:36:51 Uh I wish they wanted more of that stuff.

1:36:56 Um I'll sell the ivory.

1:37:01 I will stash these in here because I'm going to have a ship go in here.

1:37:04 I may just have a manual ship kind of run some of this stuff around.

1:37:08 We got to I may just have a ship come by here,

1:37:09 pick up a bunch of relics and just sort

1:37:11 of deliver them to whoever wants them because nobody wants relics.

1:37:14 Nobody Everybody wants them.

1:37:15 They don't want a lot of them.

1:37:17 No, they all demands of one and two.

1:37:19 Nobody's more than that.

1:37:23 They want it for a lot demands.

1:37:29 Oh, they actually have available ones cuz I probably carried some

1:37:31 in there and dropped them off and they don't want them.

1:37:35 So, I got to figure out something else to do with these these relics.

1:37:40 Rome wasn't for 385.

1:37:41 I can just grab them and start shipping them up there.

1:37:45 That's not bad.

1:37:49 Okay, so now your job here in Cairo is to just grab some wheat, I think.

1:38:00 They like they like wheat down there.

1:38:01 So, we'll give them some wheat.

1:38:03 And I'm going let you haul that down.

1:38:05 Who Who buys wheat for more?

1:38:06 You buy it for 112.

1:38:08 That's a lot.

1:38:10 Or 133.

1:38:11 That's a lot, too.

1:38:14 Not sure if it's worth the distance.

1:38:17 Worth the turns.

1:38:18 So, just go there.

1:38:26 That's my That's my real money maker.

1:38:31 Uh, where was Art?

1:38:32 Art was in Art Villa.

1:38:36 There it is.

1:38:38 How do I get a villa?

1:38:39 Villa cost 2,000 bucks.

1:38:43 Okay.

1:38:43 Yeah, let's build a villa.

1:38:44 I can build a church.

1:38:46 Oh, donate money to the church.

1:38:47 Give me a villa.

1:38:49 14 of popularity.

1:38:50 Oh, yeah.

1:38:51 That's They like people with fancy houses just like real life.

1:38:56 I'm kind of walking over here in Russia and there's nothing up here.

1:39:04 No buyers for which goods?

1:39:14 Cairo is kind of packed with things.

1:39:15 Um, what he just drop off?

1:39:23 He's dropping off glass.

1:39:24 There's no buyers for the glass.

1:39:27 Maybe worry about next turn.

1:39:34 See what happens.

1:39:47 If I get my 3,500 bucks saved up.

1:39:51 What?

1:39:54 Are there other demands of warehouse owned by Tina War?

1:39:56 Oh, no.

1:39:56 No.

1:39:56 That's good.

1:39:57 Warehouse fire in Budapest.

1:39:58 Yeah.

1:39:59 Ha, I know about that.

1:40:00 We did that.

1:40:02 Excellent.

1:40:04 I became constructed to my villa.

1:40:06 Yes, things are looking up.

1:40:08 We are uh we are on fire.

1:40:14 Serves them right.

1:40:16 There we go.

1:40:16 There's my villa right there.

1:40:25 You know, you just sailing around here.

1:40:26 No town.

1:40:26 You just up exploring things with a sandstorm.

1:40:34 Camels are good with sandstorms, so we're less likely to get hit by them.

1:40:47 Came with some good cash there.

1:40:48 I'm just going to load you up with ivory and I'll ship you back up there.

1:41:03 There's a report, a trade report that shows who's

1:41:06 made who's made the the most the most cash, right?

1:41:11 Groups.

1:41:12 doesn't say like um anything like that.

1:41:18 Um how is my how's my my thing going here with with Venice?

1:41:22 So Venice has a bunch of furs going and that's

1:41:24 what this other guy that was was shipping stuff down.

1:41:28 Um he's supposed to be the one my way south a little bit.

1:41:34 As soon as that one does a turn, I'm going to go look at him.

1:41:37 So he's Oh, there he is carrying the diamonds.

1:41:39 He's already got it on his way.

1:41:46 So, it's him, I think, one of them.

1:41:52 And in Venice, we got some furs in there.

1:41:55 We got a bunch of diamonds are coming in.

1:41:56 And the diamonds are going to get loaded

1:41:57 up on a donkey and shipped up to Nogarod.

1:42:01 So, we have to buy a donkey.

1:42:02 I'm going to go ahead and buy it this turn so we can have it.

1:42:06 I think one donkey is enough to carry those diamonds up up there.

1:42:09 Right.

1:42:09 Diamonds.

1:42:09 Diamonds are the thing that goes to Ngarod.

1:42:16 Diamonds.

1:42:19 Florence wants diamonds.

1:42:20 Oh, Genova wants diamonds.

1:42:21 Venice wants diamonds.

1:42:22 Okay, send him to Venice.

1:42:23 They only want four.

1:42:28 That demand went way up.

1:42:29 That was nowhere near that before.

1:42:30 He wasn't off before.

1:42:33 So, we can sell four of them there.

1:42:34 We'll stick the other ones in the warehouse until

1:42:36 they won them and then we'll dump them on them.

1:42:39 1,300 bucks in Florence.

1:42:40 How much does Florence cost to bribe?

1:42:45 2500 bucks.

1:42:46 We could just pick up Florence right now.

1:42:48 They only want one or two.

1:42:57 That is a fancy donkey.

1:42:59 Donkey walking around jingling with with diamonds in his pack.

1:43:04 I got to see what's going on here in North Africa.

1:43:12 Okay.

1:43:12 Yeah.

1:43:12 Go ahead and go go and go there.

1:43:18 Sell the wheat.

1:43:19 Wheat cells really would go well here.

1:43:21 And to load up fur, I think, or glass.

1:43:28 Maybe we're taking glass down there.

1:43:35 We are supposed to call the furs down there also.

1:43:41 I think the other ship is doing that though.

1:43:43 I forget what ship is doing which I think it's his job.

1:43:48 So we'll sell the glass.

1:43:50 Does anyone want glass now more than anyone in war?

1:43:58 Two wants it.

1:43:58 Mecca wants it.

1:43:59 Rome wants glass for a lot.

1:44:00 So I'll just ship you over to Rome.

1:44:07 He's just out exploring, I think.

1:44:25 Yeah, I could just send two two gems up to No, that's a good point.

1:44:30 Um, trade groups are fiddly.

1:44:38 Um, is this the one?

1:44:39 That's not that one.

1:44:43 I don't know what I got so many so many different ones.

1:44:45 So, you're hauling furs down.

1:44:50 You're about to stop in Venice with those furs.

1:44:52 And then when you go back up, you're going to carry those gems.

1:44:56 So, it's they're right there.

1:45:01 Next has to wear her goods until buyers become available.

1:45:03 Yeah.

1:45:05 I didn't want you to run off yet.

1:45:07 That's fine.

1:45:13 So they dump they dumped it off and ran off already.

1:45:17 Oh, you're not carrying anything though.

1:45:19 There's no glass here to buy.

1:45:21 Oh, there's no glass here to buy.

1:45:32 Well, okay.

1:45:44 Back over here.

1:45:44 You just dropped off those gems.

1:45:47 Do I have too much invenous?

1:45:56 Oh, can you Oh, I can't.

1:45:58 Okay, so it's way I think what happen

1:45:59 is when there is a demand, it'll sell them.

1:46:00 That's what that red I think means.

1:46:03 Okay, right now there's no no demand.

1:46:08 Okay, we may not be the most the most uh efficient here.

1:46:17 But just the ivory business we've got going now

1:46:19 I think is is making us some good money.

1:46:20 Plus this whole thing with with Florence um

1:46:24 or Kylie I mean how much money do I have?

1:46:31 Where do I see my cash?

1:46:32 My cash?

1:46:34 Where's my cash?

1:46:37 Think if I go to a town they'll show me my cash.

1:46:41 Where's my cash?

1:46:47 I got money here somewhere.

1:46:49 I don't know where it is.

1:46:51 Um, we'll pass the turn and then we'll and then

1:46:56 we'll see how much we got tons of money.

1:46:57 I got so Okay, I got 11,000.

1:47:01 I think we just built sold some diamonds.

1:47:06 Something tells me we made some money there.

1:47:12 A plague has hit Florence.

1:47:16 Army is spitting their is spotting their genoa.

1:47:18 We're not we're not going.

1:47:19 That's okay.

1:47:20 That's what they get for not trade with me.

1:47:22 I think maybe they might have unless they're going down here to Rome.

1:47:24 That could be.

1:47:26 Um so we got a lot of cash now.

1:47:29 A ton of cash.

1:47:31 And I kind of want to see what like maybe we

1:47:35 got to find somebody who's going to make us some good money.

1:47:37 Like you can buy wheat for 150.

1:47:38 So, we could easily do a Cairo wheat trip over here real fast.

1:47:42 Make a bunch of money.

1:47:44 Um, we don't need to take anything back.

1:47:47 Just dropping fish off or uh wheat or anyone else here real mad?

1:47:52 I want to buy Mecca.

1:47:53 I'm going to go ahead and buy Mecca now.

1:47:54 Bribe Mecca, I mean.

1:47:56 So, I believe that if I bribe them,

1:47:58 it'll let me it'll I can access this town now.

1:48:01 And I think it let me make a ship there.

1:48:03 That's what I want to do.

1:48:05 So, we're going to see if we can go over here.

1:48:08 We're going to buy a ship in Mecca.

1:48:11 I'm going to buy a little scout ship.

1:48:16 Okay, so Mecca's mine.

1:48:21 The other option is Tunis, who doesn't seem to make anything but fish.

1:48:28 I think this this Cairo wheat business is uh is good business.

1:48:37 So we could we could Cairo wheat.

1:48:39 What's mecha buy wheat for?

1:48:40 Not the best, but they have gold.

1:48:44 241 for relics.

1:48:46 We already have too much relics in Cairo.

1:48:56 Well, we could just run a caravan.

1:48:58 Just just run wheat out.

1:49:08 They don't have they don't have them though in Baghdad.

1:49:11 Problem is they don't have them.

1:49:12 So that means they demand them.

1:49:13 If it's if it's grayed out like that means they demand them.

1:49:15 So they'll they'll buy them for 202.

1:49:19 But they only have relics and iron here.

1:49:25 There is a bunch of iron there in Baghdad.

1:49:27 Can we get that maybe moved around somewhere?

1:49:31 I'm trying to find a something we can do with the wheat.

1:49:34 So many so many relics.

1:49:36 Never thought I'd be I have too many relics.

1:49:38 People are like, "Nah, no thanks.

1:49:39 My house, my living room's full.

1:49:40 I don't need anymore." It feels silly to just load

1:49:45 up on wheat and then not sell anything back to Cairo,

1:49:49 but there's nothing around that really works that way.

1:49:54 Maybe Grog.

1:49:57 You guys want Grog in Cairo?

1:50:01 Well, yeah, we do.

1:50:03 We could do a Rome a Rome to Cairo route.

1:50:07 It's just risky, especially in the Mediterranean

1:50:10 because there's always uh storms.

1:50:19 Maybe I just make another another caravan.

1:50:27 Wheat and ivory.

1:50:32 I think I just need to do that just for the cash.

1:50:38 So, we'll get a uh camel in Cairo.

1:50:47 I think one camel's probably enough.

1:50:51 Two might not They might not be able to carry enough for two.

1:50:56 Nah, we'll do two.

1:50:57 We'll go for it.

1:51:00 Let's do it.

1:51:03 There's a ton of wheat there.

1:51:06 So, these guys in Cairo now.

1:51:09 So, your job is in Cairo.

1:51:11 Load up on some wheat.

1:51:16 I'll put I'll put the defense in there a second.

1:51:18 And then, and you're going to walk your way over here to here.

1:51:23 You can sell that wheat, which I think we're already doing.

1:51:25 And you can just pick a pyrie.

1:51:29 I don't think we have quite enough.

1:51:31 That's okay.

1:51:32 We could also just have them sit and wait.

1:51:33 Wait.

1:51:38 Nothing wrong with that.

1:51:39 If we wanted to, instead of store, we could have them wait until they get a full

1:51:43 load just to make sure we we're not wasting time.

1:51:55 We could have one one of them waits on wheat and the other one waits on Well,

1:52:00 I don't want to do that because I want I

1:52:02 want to stick together so I can share the defense.

1:52:07 So, yeah, we'll both we'll both sit back.

1:52:08 We'll we'll wait.

1:52:09 It's fine.

1:52:11 We'll take our time making some money.

1:52:15 Well, we are we are in the uh the fifth month of the year known as May.

1:52:19 And uh a fun fact about making jokes in May is

1:52:25 it doesn't matter if it's a good joke or a bad joke.

1:52:28 Every joke you tell is amazing.

1:52:34 Amazing.

1:52:38 There you go.

1:52:44 Let's go take this guy.

1:52:45 Uh go.

1:52:46 Where you going?

1:52:46 Why?

1:52:47 Why is he Why is he messed up?

1:52:53 No.

1:52:55 Okay, you keep on looking.

1:52:56 Zing, right?

1:52:59 Pirates decided to outrun them.

1:53:02 Yes.

1:53:03 Where do we see spot pirates?

1:53:07 Why don't you sink the yellow guys?

1:53:12 That's who you should be sinking.

1:53:16 Okay, there's our money.

1:53:17 Go for it, buddy.

1:53:18 make some money.

1:53:20 Um, oh, you're the other one that I've got I'm manually doing.

1:53:23 So, sell all that.

1:53:27 And what am I going to do?

1:53:29 Uh, we're going to take all these furs and haul them back down.

1:53:37 There we go.

1:53:41 And you're going to go down here and sell them down here.

1:53:45 Those are our first Russian Russian furs in Africa.

1:53:50 Oh, what a day.

1:53:54 Qashqar.

1:53:55 Here we go.

1:53:56 I found the bones of St.

1:53:57 Paul.

1:53:57 What's St.

1:53:58 Paul doing over here?

1:54:01 Okay.

1:54:01 Well, I got I got some furs for you.

1:54:03 You seem to like those.

1:54:05 I got 14 grand.

1:54:07 And still no cloves.

1:54:09 Find them eventually.

1:54:10 Uh oh, wait.

1:54:11 We have to have cinnamon.

1:54:12 Hey, I'll pick up some cinnamon.

1:54:13 You know what?

1:54:14 Load me up with that cinnamon.

1:54:15 I bet.

1:54:15 Oh, that's all you got?

1:54:16 Okay, I'll take what cinnamon you got.

1:54:18 That may not be a good price.

1:54:21 I'll take some of that, too.

1:54:23 Now that I'm loaded up, maybe I should Maybe I should get a a defender pirates.

1:54:39 Yeah, right.

1:54:39 Well, why would I say no?

1:54:44 No.

1:54:44 No.

1:54:44 Well, we'll take our chances.

1:54:48 This guy.

1:54:48 I think I'm shipping that glass.

1:54:50 Oh, that's the one that shipping glass over to Rome.

1:54:52 That's where he's going.

1:54:53 I think I should really spend my money on something.

1:55:00 And I think I'm going to go spend my money at the church.

1:55:03 I'm going to buy some cardinals.

1:55:05 I got 12 grand.

1:55:06 I'm going to buy a bunch of cardinals.

1:55:07 We are going to be pope next time.

1:55:09 Well, no one was available.

1:55:10 Next time we're going to be pope, I I declare.

1:55:18 And then politics, we can start getting people swayed on our side.

1:55:20 So like um this guy over here.

1:55:25 If I were to give you like 2500 bucks, what do you say?

1:55:28 He says, "Okay." And um I can sway.

1:55:34 Oh no.

1:55:36 55% 57 51.

1:55:38 What am I at?

1:55:39 I got a villa, remember?

1:55:40 57.

1:55:42 So, we can try to get someone else.

1:55:43 This guy kind of We'll get him.

1:55:45 Kind of likes us a little bit.

1:55:47 There we go.

1:55:47 We got three on our side now.

1:55:50 So, maybe we'll be in charge of Venice.

1:56:09 What is that?

1:56:11 Dino discovered the head of John the Baptist.

1:56:15 Sala, a cardinal of the Nook faction was assassinated by what?

1:56:21 You killed my cardinal.

1:56:23 A plague is in London.

1:56:25 Oh, that's not good.

1:56:25 And Marseilles also as well.

1:56:27 Tunis.

1:56:28 Oh no.

1:56:30 Oh no.

1:56:32 Okay, it's plague time.

1:56:34 I guess I'm guessing that's going to like mess prices up.

1:56:39 Uh I'm assuming.

1:56:43 Okay, that's it.

1:56:45 I'll buy my other cardinal to fill my Oh, I can I can get another one.

1:56:49 I'll buy another one.

1:56:50 And then this guy Tino.

1:56:52 It may not have been Tino, but we we were told it was.

1:56:54 So that's that's who we're going to go deal with.

1:56:56 We're going to go um we're going to kill I could go kill the Pope.

1:57:02 How much it cost to kill the Pope?

1:57:03 2,000 bucks to kill the pope.

1:57:05 Yeah, success.

1:57:07 You want to try to implicate another player?

1:57:09 Yeah, you know who it was?

1:57:09 It was that guy.

1:57:11 Oh, I was caught.

1:57:13 Okay.

1:57:14 Okay.

1:57:14 Well, maybe it wasn't that guy.

1:57:18 City you're approaching has the plague.

1:57:19 Trade here anyway.

1:57:21 Uh yeah, what's going to happen with that?

1:57:24 Let's sell all this stuff.

1:57:26 Um and then we're going to buy their uh buy their grog.

1:57:32 plague doesn't get in the grog, does it?

1:57:36 Plague.

1:57:37 Oh no.

1:57:40 Oh no.

1:57:42 My ship got the plague and sink.

1:57:47 Oh, is there a town over here?

1:57:48 There is a town right there.

1:57:51 Ooh, gold.

1:57:52 Oh, cheap ivory.

1:57:55 Okay, so this uh give me that gold.

1:57:59 Remember that whole thing I had with with Mecca and I

1:58:01 was going to explore from there and I forgot about it.

1:58:03 Where's my ship at?

1:58:08 Let's load you up with St.

1:58:11 Antonius uh in Mecca.

1:58:14 Wow.

1:58:15 1,000 bucks.

1:58:18 So, while we're over on this side in Mecca,

1:58:21 we'll grab a couple relics and we'll we'll ship

1:58:25 them out and see if we can get I'm going

1:58:29 to basically go to the east and see if we

1:58:30 can make up our business in the in the east.

1:58:33 Or we could just hit a storm and wash away.

1:58:38 So, so much for that ship.

1:58:41 Okay.

1:58:42 Well, you know, may maybe we'll buy another ship.

1:58:46 How about another one in Mecca?

1:58:48 Oh, here we go.

1:58:52 By that guy.

1:58:53 Let's try that again.

1:58:55 Let's forget that happened.

1:59:03 Next scheme, invent insurance.

1:59:06 Yeah, we Yeah, those relics are on the sea floor

1:59:09 for the the next guys here in a couple thousand years.

1:59:15 No, let's not go there.

1:59:18 We're not going to get anywhere until London gets plague free.

1:59:34 You taking that wheat up, too?

1:59:35 Oh, yeah.

1:59:35 You're going to get relics.

1:59:41 Um, yeah, we best.

1:59:42 How long does plague last like a week?

1:59:49 You can go to China.

1:59:50 You can go to Japan.

1:59:51 Japan's on the map somewhere.

1:59:53 I don't know if Australia is on the map or not

1:59:55 because when was Australia discovered the pope was assassinated by by Nook.

2:00:01 Yeah, he was.

2:00:03 Dino discovered the bones of St.

2:00:05 Francis Moadishu.

2:00:07 Moadishu.

2:00:07 Where's Mogadishu at?

2:00:09 That's way over there.

2:00:10 One of my cardinals died.

2:00:12 Who should be Pope?

2:00:14 So I have six votes.

2:00:16 None of my opponents have any votes.

2:00:18 Spain's got three.

2:00:19 Rome's got three.

2:00:20 Flor is does France not get to vote again since they were pope last time.

2:00:26 You not be pope twice in a row.

2:00:27 I don't know my pope rules.

2:00:31 Zanzibar.

2:00:34 You got a bunch of gold here too and cinnamon.

2:00:46 So there's one there's one idea that I could have

2:00:49 that I have had and that is like we take Cairo.

2:00:53 We raise an army up and we take it because

2:00:57 there's not a ton of things there and then if

2:01:00 if I take Cairo then I'm the only one that can

2:01:02 trade in Cairo and Cairo is a pretty important place.

2:01:05 So that's that's a thought.

2:01:09 Like while we're going to be pope, we might as well,

2:01:11 you know, get in on all the whatever we're doing.

2:01:16 So is there anywhere that we can get?

2:01:19 Not really.

2:01:21 Not really close close by.

2:01:22 It's going to be real expensive.

2:01:24 There's a good size army here we could hire in 1,200 bucks a turn though.

2:01:28 We can move these guys.

2:01:31 We could hire them here and then move them

2:01:32 down to to uh to Cairo and then take it.

2:01:38 Australia was discovered by Europeans in6006.

2:01:43 I don't know if we have the money for it.

2:01:45 I think we will though.

2:01:47 I don't know that I can actually I can't actually get on a boat.

2:01:49 So, it actually has to be down there somewhere.

2:01:50 So, we need to find it from like if we can find one.

2:01:52 There's a little group from from Tripoli.

2:01:55 Oh, they're water only.

2:01:56 They're pirates.

2:02:12 There are pirates also.

2:02:16 So, let's not if we get if we see someone that shows up there,

2:02:19 I think we're going to we're going to try that.

2:02:23 There we go.

2:02:23 First m first shipment.

2:02:24 Look at all that money.

2:02:25 That's that's the Russian furs.

2:02:28 That made me happy that I actually made it all the way there.

2:02:30 I like that.

2:02:32 Let's get some ivory sent back up and we'll

2:02:37 head back up to um I can't get you guys.

2:02:41 You already have ivory.

2:02:43 You have cheap ivory and those diamonds.

2:02:46 Um actually, hang on.

2:02:50 That's what I was doing, wasn't it?

2:02:51 Is the diamond trade.

2:02:52 Let's forget all that.

2:02:57 Let's go over here.

2:02:58 Pick up those diamonds.

2:03:00 What's with the two roads?

2:03:01 No.

2:03:07 Yeah, we'll wait till we get a big a big stockpile of cash just

2:03:09 in case I need to figure out a way to get them hold over there.

2:03:14 And it's going to take time.

2:03:20 Benefit is though, if we turn it So, I think we can turn it over to Venice.

2:03:23 Um, and so Venice would would control Cairo.

2:03:26 Um, which people would like that.

2:03:29 Um, or we can turn it over to us and we can kick everyone else out.

2:03:32 Only us or only we're the only ones running it.

2:03:38 Yep.

2:03:39 It doesn't seem to be that busy of port.

2:03:40 It seems like I'm the only one actually using it,

2:03:41 but I want to make sure that I am the only one using it.

2:03:45 Budapest is very busy.

2:03:52 Let's try this again.

2:04:02 Like, oh, where?

2:04:05 Oh, man.

2:04:06 Why didn't you ask me?

2:04:13 What happened?

2:04:18 There we go.

2:04:21 Oh, no movement points left.

2:04:22 Okay, we're looking on How's the world looking?

2:04:25 We're We're getting there.

2:04:29 So, you can see how far off we are now.

2:04:30 So, there's there's India, but it's it's it's here.

2:04:34 Um, looks like we have um I guess we got Indonesia down that way a bit.

2:04:40 There's probably some towns in here.

2:04:42 I didn't even think about looking at because we're right there's Venice.

2:04:44 We haven't even explored this way.

2:04:46 If there's some towns like Swiss towns or something,

2:04:48 German towns up here that may be stuff worth selling.

2:04:53 Let me do a little explore.

2:04:54 Let's grab a donkey in Venice.

2:04:59 Where's Ven?

2:05:00 Why he's not offetized?

2:05:07 Oh, it is.

2:05:08 I can't buy a donkey in Venice.

2:05:10 Why?

2:05:16 Maybe because there's Oh, plague.

2:05:17 Yeah, there's plague.

2:05:18 That's right.

2:05:21 That's right.

2:05:22 We can buy an Hamburg or Cala and move them move them that way.

2:05:25 Actually, we can buy a boat and move it down the river.

2:05:30 Let me get a uh large galley.

2:05:33 I think the large ones can still fit down the rivers.

2:05:36 Guess we'll find out.

2:05:38 Aren't we supposed to vote?

2:05:52 We voted, right?

2:05:54 If I buy another one and I I get nine cardinals now,

2:05:56 I want to make sure I get this vote.

2:06:00 Okay.

2:06:13 means they can vote, I think.

2:06:15 Oh, he thinks I I don't No, I'm not sure.

2:06:18 One of my cardinals got assassinated.

2:06:22 Ah, I got the vote.

2:06:23 Oh, even Spain and France voted for me.

2:06:24 The 20 votes for me.

2:06:26 Two for that guy.

2:06:28 Oh, man.

2:06:30 That means not only am I in charge, but people want me to be in charge.

2:06:33 Titty was attacked by some some pirates.

2:06:38 Did they take my stuff?

2:06:39 Nope.

2:06:41 Okay, so now we're pope.

2:06:44 As pope, what can I do?

2:06:50 So I can call a crusade.

2:06:51 I can add cardinals.

2:06:52 I can excommunicate somebody.

2:06:53 Let's say I want to excommunicate um oh a town.

2:07:02 should excommunicate Florence.

2:07:04 I think they're going there.

2:07:05 They got a trade right there.

2:07:06 I'm going to do it.

2:07:08 Yeah, Florence has been excommunicated.

2:07:10 The Pope's going nuts.

2:07:11 I mean, it's like Look at the year.

2:07:13 The Pope It's what he does this time.

2:07:16 We call crusades on everyone.

2:07:18 A crusade.

2:07:20 No one heeds the call.

2:07:21 Oh, all right.

2:07:23 All right.

2:07:24 Fine.

2:07:27 Hey, Moadishu.

2:07:30 Um, anything new here?

2:07:31 We got cinnamon.

2:07:31 And we got the same kind of stuff we got from everywhere else.

2:07:34 Gold for a pretty good price.

2:07:35 Pretty good sell.

2:07:38 Oh no, they're buy they're they have gold here also.

2:07:42 So I'll grab an ivory on the way out and then

2:07:46 we'll make our way keep on heading over up that way.

2:07:57 So, it's it's a it's it's sort of a new it's it's not a new game,

2:08:00 but it's it's a um enhanced version.

2:08:08 Okay.

2:08:08 Here to buy some diamonds.

2:08:10 We're going to wait a turn and buy some more diamonds.

2:08:13 That made us a lot of money last time.

2:08:17 You know what?

2:08:17 I'm not going to wait a turn.

2:08:18 I'm going to just ship stuff out.

2:08:28 No, hang out there.

2:08:29 Oh, don't go back though.

2:08:30 Hang on.

2:08:33 You just hang out there.

2:08:41 Okay, this is my um India guy.

2:08:50 No, I wish it would like stop.

2:08:52 Yeah, cancel your orders.

2:08:54 Um Oh, what are you going to get?

2:09:01 He was going to He's the Cairo guy.

2:09:07 So, he's he's this guy.

2:09:10 He's the first to Cairo.

2:09:16 Don't go in there, though.

2:09:21 This plague is really starting to cause problems.

2:09:32 No towns over here.

2:09:33 Marco Polo died.

2:09:39 What do you got that's cheap here?

2:09:42 Grab some cheap fish.

2:09:45 We'll sail into the river down this end.
