How to grind Textile trading skill (Fibres)

Arr, so ye wish to master the trade of fine fibres and cloth? A worthy ambition, for a hold full of silk and linen can line yer purse with gold as well as any plundered treasure. Mark this well: in this trade, yer skill grows not from the selling, but from the buying of goods. A curious thing, but a true one.

To begin yer ascent, ye'll need to know the key ports where these goods flow. The best markets for a budding merchant are:

• Oslo (with room for more if ye invest)
• Mangalore
• Stockholm
• Goa
• Manchester

Ye can build yer name by port hopping between close cities, or, if ye have the coin to spare, by setting up Purchase Orders (POs) to gather goods for ye. The POs treat fibres as a Category 3 good, and can net ye a fine haul from the cities above.

To truly fill yer warehouse, seek out skill-boosting gear. A savvy captain might find a +2 Textile trading accessory in Sofala, or consult a proper equipment list.

Now, I've shown ye the shape of the coast and the promise of the trade. But the true secrets—how to buy mountains of goods or max yer skill with cunning efficiency—those are charts I keep for a more dedicated crew.

If ye hunger for the full chart and every last secret to ruling the textile trade, make way to the complete guide below. I'll show ye how to seize fortune proper.
