TRADESUPPLY

Usually there is a limited supply of all natural assets, both in time and

place. You may have to wait a long time for some of them to respawn, people

may be hoarding others, keeping the supply down. The more people hunting for

the same things, the harder it will get, naturally.


Generally you can not trade any kind of 'organic' material (like food or

drink) from one Dimension in another. The Timewarp will destroy these

products, rendering them useless. There are a few exceptions to this, but

those should be self explanatory. Items like logs and minerals can be traded

in all Dimensions.


Some products, like grain, grapes, olives or goat milk, could be found on

almost any island. Others, like seafood and eggs, are easy to collect, but

have to be used before they decay.


Certain products or raw materials, for instance some of the potion

ingredients, could also be hidden, hard to find, or only be obtained in rather

remote or dangerous locations.


The harder an object is to get, the higher the value of it, generally.
