Trading

Some additional rules for the Trading Game

• American Indians and merchants do not cross the mountains.
  It is too dangerous and costly to cross the mountains to trade. The traders move the trade items back and forth.
• Indian Traders can not go back to get more items.
  Again it is too costly to make many trips back and forth for just a few items.
• The Indians already have guns.
  They will be interested in getting supplies for their guns.
• The Indians can “buy” from other Indians.
