Merchant Shops

In 1 collection by Visie Maigo
Mods for Artifact Hoarders
6 items
Description
Adds merchant shops to the map and 100+ new items. Be the first to find the merchant shops and buy the best items!

Additional Features
  • 100+ new items that can spawn during base game play and while browsing a merchant shop.
  • Reputation system to gain favor with the merchants to earn discounts and exclusive access to your own pool of items.

Notes
  • You need to start a new game for the merchant shops to be spawned.
  • Defeat the marauder army blocking the merchant shop to gain access. Any unit can enter the shop.
  • Every merchant shop has its own stock of items. The shops are refreshed with new items every 7 turns.
  • The merchant shop items are shared across all players. If one player buys an item and another player visits the same shop, then that particular item is no longer available for purchase. This adds another point of contention on the map in multiplayer games!
  • You can see what items were bought by other players. It could fun to see what was bought.
  • Merchant shops only spawn above ground.
  • Up to 10 merchant shops may be spawned depending on the map size and number of players.
  • The merchant shops are generally spread out between player starting locations.

A big thank you to these modders for translating my mod!

Known issues
  • The Merchant Shop text label doesn't show up by default on the Province map. The workaround is to set the Interface setting for Province Labels from Limited to All.
  • You can still enter the shop and buy items even if the shop's province has been annexed by another player. Maybe that's fine since the merchants are supposed to be a neutral faction?

Files modified
None of the base game files are modified.

@Zenurik, thanks again for translating my mod to Korean! I have added a link to your mod in my mod description.

@Dragon of the South Wind, thanks for the review! Yes it seems like the new shops added in Giant Kings don't sell items, so this mod is still useful.

For anyone wanting to compare this mod to the shop structures added in the Giants update, here's a screenshot of both structures that happened to spawn next to each other. "Merchant shop" from this mod on left, "Shop Structure / Training Camp" on the right.

The merchant shops tend to just have items and things, whilst the new vanilla shops you can buy hero respec, skill points, renown, abilities, and also attack them (their armies are very strong when you find them early game)

Absolute chad modder that updates on DLC release day.

I went here first to check if your mod still works! Thank you for your quick implementation.

Updated for the new patch! No big changes as I have been focusing on my other mods. The shops still work well alongside the new shops introduced in Giant Kings.

Version 5.0, Ogre Update
- Increased the cost of Tier IV items to 550 gold (from 450 gold).
- Added the following mounts to the game's Evil Mount item set, used for event rewards: Infernal Hound Mount, Night Terror

Thanks for the feedback everyone. They are adding shops in the Giant Kings expansion, I will wait for more details before deciding on the next update for this mod.

@Felix Fictus I just loaded a game with only this mod enabled, no issues. The infinite loading is likely from another mod.

infinite loading screen on start-up. needs an update.
