Trading and reputation

Merchants differ in what they buy and sell, and settlement reputation also affects trading. The table shows the trade favorability modifier granted by each reputation tier. This is one input to pricing, not a universal discount on every item; supply, demand, merchant parameters and other conditions still affect final prices.

Special events

Event	How it occurs	What changes
Fair	Regular candidate	A Fair is a randomly occurring settlement situation. Its official effect describes visiting wandering traders, alongside changed conditions for food, alcohol and other trading. Its timer lasts 7 game days from activation; a situation update then processes its ending.
Bloom	Regular candidate	Bloom is a timed settlement situation from the regular rotation. It changes plant growth and herb buying prices, and refreshes growth in the settlement’s owning area when it starts.
Rut	Regular candidate	Rut is a timed settlement situation from the regular rotation. It changes wilderness activity and creature spawn counts, and refreshes global animal and monster locations when it starts.
Competition	Regular candidate	Competition is a timed settlement situation from the regular rotation. It changes contract availability, deadlines, reputation calculation and selected trade terms, and processes qualifying existing dungeon contracts on activation.
Pilgrimage	Regular candidate	Pilgrimage is a timed situation associated with visiting pilgrims. It increases reputation reward modifiers for Crypt and Catacombs contracts and changes food and medicine trading-price terms.
Reinforcements	Regular candidate	Reinforcements is a timed settlement situation from the regular rotation. It lowers wilderness activity and ambush chance in the owning area, changes trade terms, and lets qualifying kills affect reputation through player XP.
Dangerous Roads	Possible contract aftermath	Dangerous Roads is a negative settlement situation caused by eligible Bastion contract aftermaths. It changes trading and wilderness generation and can lead to supply problems. Resolving the linked dungeon contract allows a situation update to remove it; it has no fixed-day expiry.
Pestilence	Possible contract aftermath	Pestilence is a negative settlement situation that can follow an unresolved Catacombs contract. It affects sick beasts, gathered food, village residents, and medicine trading, and can lead to delivery problems. Its ending path requires the same dungeon connection to be cleared.
Nightmares	Possible contract aftermath	Nightmares is a negative settlement situation that can follow an unresolved Crypt contract. It rewrites sleep settlement in the affected area, withholds Vigor, and changes alcohol trading. Its ending path requires the same dungeon connection to be cleared.
Delayed Deliveries	Economic consequence of a negative situation	Delayed Deliveries is the first economic deterioration stage that a negative settlement situation can cause. It changes trading conditions and merchant fund generation, may worsen further, and can be cleared by resolving its parent situation.
Disrupted Logistics	Economic consequence of a negative situation	Disrupted Logistics is stage 2 of economic deterioration caused by a negative main situation. It further changes trading, stock generation, and merchant fund generation. It is replaced or cleared only by further deterioration or removal of the linked negative parent.
Supplies Shortage	Economic consequence of a negative situation	Supplies Shortage is the third and final economic deterioration stage caused by a negative main situation. It further changes trading, stock generation, and merchant fund generation. A situation update clears it after the linked negative parent is removed.
Fate of the Brewery	Story events and consequences	Fate of the Brewery is a story quest during caravan preparations in Osbrook. You can clear the brewery for Odar or use Jurg’s information to uncover the truth and help Kromm preserve it. Choices change rewards, reputation, trading services and the cart’s location.

Background

A thoroughly unassuming village that lives off its mill and wheat fields. The war went past these hinterlands, leaving almost no traces in its wake - and the locals wouldn't take it any other way.
