Trade Goods

A small variety of trade goods are produced in particular areas. Trade goods provide bonuses and can be traded with other clans by a player with a mercantile occupation. A trade route can yield a large income, the exact amount depends on the distance travelled and the size of the domain of the other clan.

Trade Good	Access Bonus
silk	+1 honour
tea	+1 honour
cotton	+1 honour
ceramics	+1 honour
lacquerware	+1 honour

Silk is primarily found in the eastern part of Honshu island, while tea and cotton can usually be found in the south of Japan.

Most ceramics can be found in some market towns in the provinces of provinces Echizen, Owari and Omi. Lacquerware is quite scarce and can only be found in a few market towns.

Trade Route

Only Chonin or Tekiya can setup trade routes. Chonin and Tekiya are not impeded by a zone of control of a rival army, when they engage in trade.

A trade route can be set up in a market town or port town.

A trade route is eliminated, if an enemy captures the point of origin or the point of destination or any of the waypoints. A trade route is also eliminated if the clan who sells the resource has lost access to that resource. A declaration of war to a clan also eliminates all trade routes with that clan.

A trade route can have a maximum of 3 waypoints. The more waypoints it has the greater the income derived from that trade route. A waypoint can be set in a post station.
