I think there needs to a car for sale that runs on methane and you should be able to turn your horse manure into methane!!!

wil, just to let you know, the caravan will not always be there, so if you plan on telling everyone that it is an easy way to get more men to fight for you, you are sorely mistaken, just to let you know

hey what i knowtesed is that there is a caravan at okaidi that is really weak, i attcked them with 3 guys and owned, now i have 20 guys and follow carravans untill they are weak then kill them, i can beat them without looseing 1 person.
it would be better if more people would pop up, like if you lose 1 or two guys you cant hire someone to take there place, something should be done about that

NanoMan, the third town is where you make most of your money. I like to buy a cart to begin with, so at the second town I can load up with a large amount of shoes, then get rich at the third town. Sellin clothes at the first town also gives a lot of money. Don't skip the third one.

@jugagor: probably in later towns, i still havent found them. ive only seen them the time i attacked a caravan like an idiot :P XD

NOTE FOR BEGGINERS!!! If youre just starting and need money do this. At town talk to sheriff, get ur stuff and buy the worst cart the town has, buy about 50-100 food and a blue water carton and fill it at well. go back to market and buy all the leather u can go to Caganel and sell all leather and go back to poca loca (or w/e)... then repeat. this is better than what sheriff says cuz the third town is too far away. also after u buy some decent bullet amount encounter all the bandets u can (BUT NOT TOO MANY!!) after getting guns and other weps from them sell them at shop and ater u have at least 2k hire ur first crew member.

Top game !
Much better than most of the non flash games and rpg out there.
5/5
A mix betwen :
- Elite for commerce and slow progression
- X-COM for tactical fight
- Mad max for the scenario / univers
Only flaw is the combat can take too long without a challenge after a while, but that is about the only flaw you can find

I had two Desert Patrol escorts, then I saved the game. When I loaded it, only one was there.
Then I beat the bunker. I saved the game. When I load it, I'm immediately attacked by a huge band of robbers who have the innitiative when the battle starts, killing half of my people.
I just have to say...that's effed up. Another flaw.
On other thing this game has to have is the ability to delay moving one person. Sometimes a person is trapped and can't move until another person is moved first. As it is now, you have to lose a full turn just. You should be able to skip the move and come back to it after all the other people have been moved.

Nice game, but it's really hurting for a couple of improvements:
1. Need a way to save the game in tiown, so you don't waste supplies going to the map
2. Need a way to figure out where you are, if you miss a town (ancient sailors could do it, why can't we?)
3. Need a way to pass time in town, if (like me) you run a route dry but haven't gotten enough to make it to the next towns without getting raped by bandits
4. Need a way to escape from combat if you get overwhelmed, especially considering how many bandit groups will zero in on you at some points.

Well, i guess you can get attacked while on foot, but i never said you couldn't. Thanks for following up on that.
Just saying it is possible to make it from Diep Gat to Hara on foot, without getting attacked.

heres another route: qubba and masriah. buy shoes from qubba at 40$ and sell them at masriah for almost a hundred. get alshohol from masriah and sell them for more than 5 times the price in qubba=D

great advice iudex, followed the basic ideas and I got me 4 hummers full of mercs and heavy ordinance and a third of a million
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
iudex, thats not really good advice :(
soz, but, when u buy the mules, u get used to having to feed all them + mercs.
therefore, its gonna be hard to drop Everything or sell cos most cities like okadia dont have either a cart shop
or a farm or watever.
my advice is get onli 1 cart, get rich following iduexs trade route ( minus buying more mules) and head to vredammater platz then quabbas alchol trade
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
here's my strategy to get you going from start: buy the weakest cart, some food, a jug of water, and some forage, and as much leather as possible. Head to caganel, sell leather, buy shoes. Head to drushlak, sell shoes, head to poca cosa. repeat. Then at your next time in poca cosa, buy a mule and another cart. repeat once more. If at anytime you see clothes around $10-15/per, buy all and sell at $40. you should have between $20k-$35k afterward. drop your mules and carts. Head straight to Hara on foot. (i don't think robbers attack you on foot, i didnt get attacked once)
After this, buy a small jeep with your money and hustle alcohol from towns to Qubba. When you get enough, buy new weapons and some Hummers. Stock up on fuel and hustle gold from the NE to Qubba.
After this, just hire the crap outta mercenaries and start the missions.

does anyone have stats or guesses on the leveling/experience system in this game? I'm trying to amass a high AP group for the army battles and was wondering how long it would take.
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
lol no wonder. i was wondering why caravan x had a special name so it turns out that it was supposed to be attacked? and how early is early?

Nice homage to Fallout. This would be a really fun game if there was some way to flee from combat. In Fallout you can try to make it to the exit grid if you screwed up and forgot to arm yourself and your companions. In this game you just have to lose. It's extremely frustrating, considering the time that goes into getting the game started. I don't think I can keep playing after the time I invested...and then forgot to issue weapons and extra ammo. A real shame. Fatal flaw in the game design.

Heh. Shill, hire some folks to help you out. Trust me. If you don't, you'll be destroyed quite quickly. Probably on your first attempt to travel past Okaidi. Maybe even on the Drushlak-Okaidi route.

thanks guys! became really succesful!
:) by the way; i dpnt really use mercs; just 10 accuracy and agility is pretty good
