    Um, I hope it's OK starting a new thread, but I'm seeing gem requests popping up in various places, and am having a hard time keeping who wants what straight. So maybe we can consolidate all gem request here?

    Anyhow, I've got Astral gems to spare (who needs some for site searching? Skinu, you want some for your new Astral mages to get in some Arcane Probing?), a very small F and E income (2 and 1 per month respectively), and 3 D gems a month coming in (C'tis wants them for forging Mentors, but I believe Agartha wants them to cast Dark Knowledge - in my mind, that should take priority - we need to take every opportunity to increase gem income).

    At some point (not just yet, but try to generate that income for the future!), I will want lots of Astral gems, and maybe Air gems.

    I need astral for site searching! 2 per turn please Smile

    Dark Knowledge is nice, although if we're starved for gems we might get by with manually searching death sites since level 2 in death is fine for tons of income. Also, I desperately need skull mentors to get to Const-6 and use these gems with my forging a little more effectively.

    Yeah, sort of what the marketplace thread was supposed to be for, trading items and gems between players, but whatever works.

    Anyway remember to use the marketplace thread to list what spare items/gems/slaves you currently already have. Then you can come here I suppose to ask for the gems you need.

    Think of the marketplace thread as a place to post your inventory.

    The forging thread should be used for forging requests exclusively, for items which do not currently exist, and as a way for the forging nations to list what they can make.

    In other words if you don't see it listed in the marketplace thread (aka inventory thread) ask for it on the appropriate thread. That was the original idea anyway. But in practice, things change. Smile

    Thanks Septimius, that's kind of how I saw the Marketplace forum - a "Hey, I got a Horned Helmet in a luck event, but have no use for it - anyone want it?" kind of thing.

    But we have people asking for gems probably more than for gold now, so it seemed logical to have a dedicated thread.

    Oh, and Stretch, I'll send Ulm two A gems a month until you say otherwise.

    I need D gems to forge Ulm's skull mentors. I can forge as many per turn as people can send me gems for.

    Since I'm racing for artifiacts and the mage time involved in forging the mentors is the exact benefit of using the mentors for one turn, I'm considering using each mentor for one turn before passing it off to Ulm. I'm not set on this, so what do you guys think?

    Decided to send all skull mentors directly to Ulm. Death gems and hammers will continue to speed up this effort.

    Running low on Nature and Water gems... nothing currently critical, but I'll be forging artifacts in just a few turns.

    Thanks! I thought you meant air gems at first... I definitely need 2 astral gems per month.

    I will send some water and nature gems over as well as some hammers Raiel.

    How many hammers? I'm not being pushy or picky - I'll just save more death gems for next turn if you are actually sending more than 1 hammer.

    Whoops, my mistake, just sending one hammer Raiel. If you can definitely send 2 mentors this turn so that I get them next turn that'd be great Raiel. Then I can get conjuration 3 the turn after, and my mages can use all the help they can get.

    Yup... two mentors are on the way. I'll go ahead and forge two more this turn and 3 more next turn.

    9N11W on the way to you also, Raiel, FYI. Hopefully with a good supply of mentors and my ever-growing ability to recruit mages I'll have Construction-6 in 5 turns.

    Stretch, I've got you covered with 2 Astral gems a month until you can generate your own income for site searching.

    At the moment they are going to be combat or research in their spare time, but thanks for the offer. I desperately need air gems though, I found two sites to boost me by an additional 4 per turn putting me up to 7 per turn, but im going to get pushed soon by Vanheim and id like to forge another air booster so I can get a lv. 6 air mage into battle asap. I have 27 stockpiled water gems which im not using currently, and 8 pearls (+3 a turn), if anyone needs them more than I do.

    Skinu, I am actually very short of water gems for site-searching--I can cast two Voices of Tiamat per turn, plus some more Voices of Aspu, if I can get some more water gems.

    I need 4N per turn in order to cast haruspex 2x per turn! Please send these over! I also am once again in need of astral pearls (at least 4 per turn) as next turn I can begin recruiting lizard shamans and arcane probing.

    I sent you four, which is all I had left. Needed to forge a bag of winds and robe of the sea desperately to fight off Vanhiem so I had to transmute a few, but from now on I can send you 2 every turn.

    Thanks! Every bit will help. I am still in desperate need of water gems, so if you can at all afford to give up some of those, please send them on to me posthaste.

    Aha! A type of gem that I have in relative abundance! I'm sending 10 water gems to Shinuyama.

    Thanks all! Hopefully I can start making returns on gem investments soon, my gem income's already much improved, but right now I seem to be spending as fast as I'm getting.
