here is an important tip to anyone who is trying to do John Sheppard's missions. try to save over 4 million dollars before you attack Caravan X. then report to Shepard imediatly afterwords and try the next missions as fast as possible. if u have cars and there is very little feul in hara, start transporting oil from Qubba to hara and they will sart producing eventually. btw 5/5

Right, just got killed...again.
Personal opinion, love the game. LOVE IT. Not much economical games around.
But i must suggest lowering the attacks between cities. I just got out of the starting triangle of the 3 cities and went West. Fine and dandy. When going back got ganked by 3 caravans in a row with 12-15 people each. I mean wtf? I was used to 4-5 drunken mexicans or at most 5 ninja's.

@antipandy123: You should try working for the Desert Patrol. Final battle (I guess...) against the military involves defeating several army regiments, consisting of 25+ men each, with about 10-15 AP and 100 HP each, armed with rocket launchers, grenades and machine guns...

5.1 million is equally good. I have start recruiting everyone lol. So now I sorta seems to well, have the biggest army in the game haha.
I have just about limitless funds and I wish there was an option to take over towns because I'm in that sort of position hehe. Ive decided Im gonna do a bit of testing on the economy and then see what affects it negatively and what affects it positively. All I know is that with 9 or 10 hummers, theres a lot of room for a huge army.

Police are my friends. If you take a job for the governor they wont touch you and if you destroy the Desert Patrol its better since the police are stronger and faster so theres very little robbers on the roads apart from in the NE where there are tons of robbers unless you destroy their base. I cba. Makes it fun attacking them all with my army and 3.6 million USD

24680 raises a good point. My economy is worsening now and its gonna take a while to regain. I suggest you budget yourself and watch the economies. Boom and bust seems to work the same in Caravaneer since buying and selling in other markets works like speculation, but some towns produce a hell of a lot more than they should and brings prices down and profit margins. I suggest you strip an overproducing town of something they need. However if you hover around Quabba you can always make money out of jewelry. I bought about 15 for $900 and sold it for $4000 in fort gok lol. Good times. I have 2.4 million and around 10 men. I don't see the need for too many. I have 5 humvees though.

lol, 38 men with sniper rifles, 2 with rpgs, 10 with machine guns, 10 humvees, 2000000 money and a killer way of making money :D

Tnt its because if your guys can only travel at 5 or 6 then the horses must stay at the same speed. Its the minimum speed of the vehicles.
My hummers escort all my men so it travels at 20

Easiest route is make your way to Quabba when you have vehicles and talk to the governor. You can kill of Desert Patrol off really easily and recieve $100,000. That really helps set off a nice caravaneer empire. I had $70,000 before that missions and after that I bought 5 hummers and military armor. Every man has the best machine weaponary. My doctor on it costs $4000 a month but thats nothing lol. I have 1.2 million and make as much as I want. Fuel costs a bomb though so if you have as many hummers as me I reccomend going to Hara, or Poca Cosa very occasionally. The police leave you alone if you complete the governors mission. Anyway Id outgun them if they did try anything :). Sniper rifles are good.

How crap? You just don't know how to appreciate it, it's good in graphics, and the gameplay is good, although combat is duller at later game.
Not that fun? What's fun then? All the other games have very SHORT lifespan and very few are good like Shift 3 NOT BOOMBOT 2.

Yeah I had that glitch too on another save.
BTW anyone know how to do the missionb where you have to kill all the guards to the bunker?

Its the best game Kongregate has hosted I think. I mean I like Mud and Blood 2, and some other games like Feudalism and even The Visitor is a nice game, but this tops.
Tip: Instead of setting off on a peaceful caravaneering journey at the start I sold my springfield, and my donkey and traded it in for a Garand and hired a person. Then I went out head hunting and once I won, I equipped the hired person with a nice katana I found and sold some on the market. I made around $2000 before I decided to go out trading. Its fun and theres money in it. ATM I have 8 people including myself all with RPK's or M4 carbines. Grenades are a life saver. Remember that. If you can get close enough and your surrounded, use superior fire power. Rocket Launchers arent worth the money really.
