Trade MRCA Deadline - Oct 26

[Capt Wolf]

The sign-up deadline for the next Trade MRCA is October 26, midnight, anywhere in the world.

----------------

To sign-up for the Trade MRCA, read the rules here and then sign-up via this form.

For a ship to take part in the MRCA, it must be licensed. You can license your ship under the new ship rules via this form. If there are any issues (typo, wrong number of points or other issues) with this process, PM @Bregir.

Note that the MRCA signup form still doesn’t have raids added yet, so if you’re interested in conducting a raid this turn, PM @Capt Wolf. If you’re just going to be trading, you can go ahead and fill out the forms normally.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

IMPORTANT MAP ZONE INFORMATION:
- Note that zone 34 connects to zone 36
- Explorers have confirmed that the open sea south of zone 35 is navigable. As such, zone 62 (unmarked on map) is available for travel in the MRCA. Zone 62 connects to zones 33, 35, 37, and 38. Cartographers are working to get the maps updated as soon as possible.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In addition to the information above, consult the following two maps for trade zone numbers before submitting any forms.

First, the continental coast and the seas closest to northern Halos: 

IMPORTANT: Note that if you click on the above map to go to one you can zoom in on, there is an error on the linked map (zones 10 and 11 are mislabeled). Use the map visible above for proper zone labels.

Note that the settlement marked on the above map as Dragonstone now goes by the name of Aurelia.

 

Second, here is the map for the New Haven Sea, which has a growing number of settlements:

* If you have to ask where Black Rock is, you can't find it.

 

The following islands can also be chosen as destinations. They have no trade value, so you won't earn any DBs sailing to them, but they're better than sinking.  
If sailing to one of these islands, use the name listed here:

Island	Faction	Marked on map as	Zone	Trade Value
Fever Island	---	1	26	0
Island of Bats	ALT	4	27	0
Bubbling Island	NAM	6	30	0
Garden of Hades	---	9	31	0
Gunpowder Island	---	16	35	0
Stilt People Island	---	17	35	0
Glimmer Island	CAR	20	35	0
Mud Beach	SR	21	35	0
Screeching Isle	---	22	35	 0  

Also, the pirate hideouts of Barracuda Bay in zone 27 and Dragon Lair in zone 13 can be visited by black flag ships of any faction and remain hidden in the subsequent KPA ship report. But this is for pirates only. Ships not flying the black visiting these hideouts will likely be captured by Captain Redbeard or The Dragon!

Hooray, thanks @Capt Wolf for turning right around into a new turn

[Fraunces]

Ah great. Just filled the forms. Many thanks for the work you guys put in this game.

Hey, @Capt Wolf / @Bregir. I was just looking at the settlement status, and I don't think the WTC troops were moved from Fatu Hiva. I'm guessing I forgot to put in the troop move paperwork (I swear I put it in, but it was a while ago... so honestly no clue). I was hoping we could have the troops counted as moved in the last MCRA. (Especially as I think oleon would want their settlement free of Corries!)

As such, 2 fleets of mine left Fatu Hiva last turn. One went to Spudkirk, and the other back to Mesabi Landing. I was hoping that of the 390 troops could be moved with the 2 fleets (and feel free to deduct what my ships made in the MCRA). This would put 160 men in spudkirk, and 230 back in Mesabi Landing out of the 390 there. 

If not, that's totally fine. But.... i might need to work something out with Oleon!

That all sounds reasonable to me. I'm going to flag this for @Ayrlego, who has been overseeing troop movement records.

Hey @Mesabi !

you're in for another round ?

I double checked the troop forms, nothing there... but it's an easy fix. I've adjusted the spreadsheets to reflect the troops were moved last turn. Nothing to see here Oleon!!!

I always try to keep my ships on the sea. I should probably break out my bricks again...

Who might I inquire with to get the stats for a captured NPC ship? Quinnsville captured Serpent's Scream from Francois the Elder last turn I would like to know what I've got to work with. 

Thanks in advance!

But note that it is an un-MOC'd ship, so you'll need to build it before you can sail it,

Gotcha, thanks for letting me know! I'll had that to my to-do list...

I haven't found myself in this situation but am curious, is this "build it" a 1. Whole new ship? 2. Micro scale? 3. A MRCA outcome 16x16? Or 4. Something else?

1. Whole new ship.

Basically, capturing an un-MOC'd ship is the same as acquiring a free license for a ship of that size. It can also be sold to the prize court for DBs if you don't want to build a ship.
