I've used this technique to find smaller towns that I could pillage. -- nm - CQ dipped in Paas Apr 6, 19:31
But she hasnt been the only one on ST who has traded with somebody then got pillaged by same person - eag Apr 6, 19:30 1
- I saw your message you just got pillaged. Planning on a reprisal? - celedhring Apr 6, 19:37
as eag says, it's putting yourself out there. you think it's coincidence that the person i bought from yesterday spied then attacked today? -- nm - b! Apr 6, 19:30
If you buy 5,000 sulfur from me and i'm of the mind to do so it would only take a little bit of research to find you. - Stephen Apr 6, 19:29 10
- Actually, scratch that, it's even easier than that. - Stephen Apr 6, 19:33 9
  - you can also find towns randomly on a map... what further info do you get from trading? -- nm - loosilu Apr 6, 19:34 8
    - I can see from my trading post that a certain dude is selling 10k of wood and sulphur. - Dignan Apr 6, 19:37 2
      - yup, works both ways. -- nm - Stephen Apr 6, 19:47
      - hey, quit spying on me, spyer. -- nm - loosilu Apr 6, 19:38
    - it's a time-saver. no having to randomly click - just go check-out someone who has enough assets to be trading. -- nm - b! Apr 6, 19:36
    - Ok, if i'm trading a resource when the other player's transports are coming in it shows up under the military tab with a link to the city. - Stephen Apr 6, 19:36 1
      - ahh. -- nm - loosilu Apr 6, 19:38
    - You can take back what they just bought, I guess. -- nm - celedhring Apr 6, 19:36
    - if they buy you'r surplus they might have something you need :) -- nm - Danedukenuuk Apr 6, 19:35
