Garmadon Posted January 22, 2016 Posted January 22, 2016 Welcome to the East Trade Wind Company's Discussion Topic! Here’s where members sign up, organize transactions, vote on expenditures, and more. There will be certain strategic discussions that are kept private, but if you have any questions about the ETWC or the relative parts of the EGS, feel free to ask below! What is the ETWC? Almost since the beginning of its charter, the ETWC has been the most powerful trading company of Eslandola. It controls almost all the major Eslandolan Old World ports and Sir E.T. Wilkinson de Chauncourtois, the head of the company, saw to it that most of the High Council seats were filled with board members. Only recently has the company begun to make a more vigorous move toward strengthening colonization and trading in the New World, but once it has started there isn't much that would want to stand in its way! Why should I join the ETWC? You should join the East Trade Wind Company because it is the richest, biggest, and best company around! Plus, E. T. Wilkinson de Chauncourtois who leads it is just the right person to lead a company, and not some hot-headed young Guy. We also already ply the seas of the world's oceans and own most of Eslandola's old world. Lastly, we're simply the best! Furthermore, the ETWC has monopolies of wheat and oat plantations and on copper mines These monopolies translate into in-game economic benefits. The ETWC can provide protection to your property and open the way if you want to land a position as mayor or civil servant, or even a member of Eslandola’s High Council, if you show that kind of commitment! Plus, the ETWC provides a great setting for you to engage in the Monthly Commerce and Raiding Action along with like-minded Eslandian traders.

Garmadon Posted February 2, 2016 Author Posted February 2, 2016 The ETWC has now opened the doors to builds from all nations in Pontelli, licenced or not. For gold and country! Quote

We are the richest, biggest, and best, but in terms of members we are rather lacking, actually We do need some more people to share the gold with though, so all ye Eslandolianderians, hop on over!

Garmadon Posted March 12, 2016 Author Posted March 12, 2016 25DBs to the first man (from any faction) to build a large (between 64 x 64 and 128 x 128 studs) oat or wheat plantation for the ETWC (the ETWC will licence it - and pay for the licence, obviously!) in the settlement of Pontelli before the end of the month! The first person to sign up for it either here or in the Eslandolan thread will get the reward once the plantation is built Quote
halixon Posted April 13, 2016 Posted April 13, 2016 We're fairly quiet. Something secret in the works? :? Quote
Garmadon Posted April 13, 2016 Author Posted April 13, 2016 We've got a few things up our sleeves, but that is a good point about being quiet... we might want to take some of the conversation to this thread instead of the PM. It would at least help us with the more grandiose look I hope to (finally!) finish editing my ship pictures and have another small build up by the end of the month, and then I have some more things to build (though more generally for BoBS) after that. No one seems inclined to take up the offer for building a large plantation though... hmm. Quote

Garmadon Posted April 14, 2016 Author Posted April 14, 2016 Do you want to build us a Class 1 T, Captain B? We've got - eh - 25DBs right now, so the company could pay for half of the licence and we could divide the other half between ETWC members (maybe 5 shares, 5DBs a share?) What do you all think? Quote
Garmadon Posted October 13, 2016 Author Posted October 13, 2016 The ETWC has just licenced its headquarters office in Pontelli as a small commerce: Quote
Garmadon Posted March 8, 2017 Author Posted March 8, 2017 ...And, the ETWC has now also licenced a large plantation just outside of Pontelli: Part I (by Captain Braunsfeld) Part II (by Garmadon) Quote
