*bump*


HornStar32 asked about some advice threads. Some time ago valmont performed a valuable service by collecting many threads according to topic. I am only bumping one of them. Search for valmont to find the others.

If you can not think of a good reason to build something other than a caravan, build a caravan!

I once worked out a trade bonus formula and sent it to several friends for testing. The formula was different from the one in the book.

The bad thing is that I don't have a copy myself now. Could somebody help? If you can just post it here.

I, too, would like to see the correct formulas.
