One of our merchants stopped by earlier, and told me he'd been paid with a strange coin. It looks similar to ours, but it's definitely not from around here. It's a pretty looking thing, and clearly hand-crafted. Maybe we should investigate this some more?Who would have thought that a little coin could be so important? It's clear that we have a lot to learn from other cultures, and a lot of friends to make. The merchant who initially gave me the coin could hardly believe our story. You should have seen his face!

The Shady Goldsmith

My, what an unusual coin. Did someone really pay with this? It looks so exotic... Maybe it's even worth something! I have an... acquaintance... that really knows his foreign currency. Perhaps we should get him to give it an appraisal?Very interesting... He said that this coin belongs to an ancient tribe from a civilization called the "Tikki". Apparently for the Tikki people, these coins symbolize wealth and prosperity, and are considered sacred. Unfortunately, for us, it's little more than a piece of junk.

The surroundings of Tikki Island have been afflicted by a curse due to the missing sacred coin! We can't leave the Tikki like this... We must get this coin back to them! We'll need to craft the best ships and pack enough supplies to make it through the cursed storm.This should be enough. The exotic planks will make for a very robust mainframe that should endure the worst weather conditions while at sea. We're ready to go save the Tikki tribe!

This is terrible! Most of the bandits that came to steal the Tikki's treasure got stranded on Tikki Island due to the curse, and now they've decided to settle there! They're oppressing the poor Tikki, and making them do their bidding by force! This deed cannot go unpunished. We must save the Tikki tribe!"Live and let live" is what my grandpa used to say. Those bandits will think twice before messing with a pacific civilization such as the Tikkis once again. The grateful Tikki people are chanting your name, and want to reward you with an important part of their culture. We should place it somewhere on our home island, so we always remember this day!

The Little Panda

We just stopped some smugglers at the port, who were trying to get illegal merchandise onto our island. Hidden amongst their goods, we found a malnourished panda cub. Poor little panda... Who would do something like this? We must return him to his habitat and to his mother!I just received the report confirming that the panda has made it home safely. I miss him already... Do you think we can have one of our own? I'm kidding, of course!

It's so big, sturdy and comfortable that I'm thinking of ordering one to live in myself! The ship has departed, and all going well, mother and son will be back together very soon.

There will be a lot of people, so apparently "it better be huge"!What a wonderful ceremony! Oh, don't worry about me. I always cry at weddings...

While I was going through my things, I found some papers of mine from back when I was a lot younger. I liked to play make believe a lot, where I'd pretend I was someone else, and so I wrote out entire backgrounds and stories for these characters. It might be fun to share this with other people who share the same interests. What do you think?I can't believe that Settlers & Bandits is so popular!

Bart, the Barterer
1
We found this leaflet from a barterer called "Bart". It says he pays well for rare materials. I thought our economy could use a little boost, so I decided to invite him over.Bart's visit was definitely very profitable - both for us, and for him. We've obtained some nice rare materials that will certainly come in handy, and he got... well whatever junk he asked for, I guess? Maybe we should invite him again sometime? He was such a nice guy.

Bart the barterer has arrived on the island. He mentioned he hasn't had much interest from his leaflets, so he's willing to make us a good deal. He's offered me a small (horrible) marble statue, and has asked for a similar statue made of hardwood. Let's use our provision house to produce the goods he's asked for - just make sure you don't clog the production line!Bart is pleased with the deal, but I have to say... This marble statue is UGLY! Perhaps we should demolish it, and recycle the marble? Yes, I think that's a good idea.

Otherwise it wouldn't be bartering, would it?Bart seems to be really happy with the coins we gave him. I don't really get it. We only use one kind of coin as a currency after all, but he seems to firmly believe that every single one is different. Collectors are interesting people, indeed.

"The Annoholics" on Tour

The famous band "The Annoholics" are on tour! And from what I saw on the poster, it seems that they're performing nearby! Maybe we should contact them and see if we can get them to play a special gig on our island. I'm sure that would make everyone happy!Wow, what a memorable concert!

The Lost Compass

Well, now this is a peculiar compass. It has quite an odd design, and doesn't actually seem to point north, like every other compass... I wonder if there's more to this little artifact?Well, those were some strange coins! I'm not sure how useful they'll be, but at the very least, we've obtained some knowledge about hidden treasures and legends from the past. And you know what they say - knowledge is the most precious of treasures!

Let's follow the compass towards other islands, and see how it behaves then.Nothing around here, apparently... It's strange. Although the compass has very slightly shifted directions, it seems to always be pointing... East?

The little rascal we imprisoned is apparently the count's favorite son, and he fabricated that letter we received as a prank! Everything has been cleared up as a misunderstanding.

I have never seen anything of this nature, but one thing is for certain - it's come from a big beast.Bah, it was nothing more than a conveniently shaped rock! The geologist must have been seeing things, with the darkness and everything. Actually, looking a bit more closely, this "claw" could be nothing more than a sharp, oddly-colored mineral.

The Vigilante's Insignia

When I first found this brooch, I thought that it was an ornament for clothing - but when the children around town saw me holding it, they started telling me how it belongs to a vigilante called "The Custodian", that has been fighting crime on this island. This requires more investigation!Unfortunately, the Custodian does not feel to be ready to become a general as of now. She hasn't completely written off becoming one in future, however, and she's convinced that someone else would take the Custodian mantle. We'll let her continue her vigilantism for now.

Don't worry, though - once the test is done, we can re-use most of the materials used.It took a bit of effort, but she managed to pass the test. Granted, this is not a test that an unprepared person should be able to easily pass, so given the short length of time she took, this makes it all the more impressive.

The Larsian Silk Cat
1
Let us read the message... A member of the von Peahead court informs you that his Lord’s rare Larsian silk cat has gone missing. Gundolf von Peahead accuses his fellow nobleman Harald the Softnoggin of pilfering it.
The two are preparing for battle over this dispute– can you believe it?The poor thing doesn't look happy at the prospect of going back to its loudmouth of a master. I cannot say I blame it.
Hey, how's this for a suggestion. As you found the cat so quickly, I doubt our noble friends will be expecting results quite this soon. Why not let it enjoy some peace and quiet on the Excelsior? I’ll return it to von Peahead in a few weeks.

Of course, von Peahead has no evidence whatsoever. He only suspects Softnoggin because he was the last person he showed the cat to before its disappearance.
They have promised to withdraw their troops, for now, in exchange for my assurance I'll investigate the matter. Can I count on your support? We’ll use flour to dust for foot and fingerprints!I found prints! But they're not what I expected…

The most recent prints are from cat paws... It must have escaped on its own! All this madness over a runaway cat!
I doubt that von Peahead will be satisfied unless we find and return his precious pet though. Where should we start looking? I wouldn't be surprised if it had made a beeline for the fish market.The fishmongers reported spotting an ivory cat sneaking about the area. Looks like we're in the right place.

I'm Important!

We must defuse this situation. But how can we make them listen to us? These blockheads won’t even accept a flying ship as a sign of importance!
The only language they understand is their own - showy displays of wealth and power. Let's pitch my tent on their battlefield. Add some showy decorations, and bring your personal guard too - that should draw their attention.Here they come. Let’s see what they have to say for themselves.

Wood production
2-3
As you already know, we will need a lot of wood to have enough building materials. You should always have some in stock so you don't run short.Having a little stock is never a bad thing. Don't forget to check your storehouses regularly to see if anything is missing.
Produce at least 3 Pinewood.
30
Plank production
3-3
Ah, plank production is already working effectively as far as I can see. You should also raise your stock of planks a bit.You are developing quickly. This should be enough for wood production to get started. Let's get on with the next resource.
Produce at least 3 Pinewood Plank(s).

Multiple deposits
5-5
Did I mention that it is possible to have several deposits at the same time? Just send your geologist out more often. An additional stone deposit always comes in handy.Of course this is true for every deposit, not just stone. Always remember that deposits become depleted after a certain time, so it's good to have another one as a replacement.
Find 1 new Stone deposit(s).

A little comfort

If you have a little time, I would like to share two things with you First, you can track quests by clicking the small box next to the quests in the quest book, and secondly, you can pin the building menu if you want to prevent it from closing, when you are building streets, for example. Take a look.Pretty useful features, am I right? Keeping the quests in sight is particularly handy. But I have kept you from your business long enough. Don't let me delay you any further.
Track a quest. Pin the building menu

Still lacking stone
7-10
With the added resources from Theodor, we should have enough of nearly everything except stone. Produce some, because we'll be needing a lot of it during our upcoming challenges.Very good. This amount of stone should be sufficient for the upcoming buildings. However, you should always continue producing stone.
Produce at least 5 Stone.

Don't forget to buff
8-18
Remember buffs? Producing buffs takes some time, but you usually need them on short notice. That's why I recommend you always have some in stock.That is correct. You can do a lot with this. Don't forget that you need resources to create buffs, such as fish in this case. Do you have enough left?
Select a . Produce at least 3 .

The base of buffs
8-10
Since we have produced enough buffs, it's time to reproduce the fish, because when the basic resource of the buffs is exhausted, no more buffs can be produced.Your fishermen were really hard working. Seems like they are really satisfied under your leadership. Now the first part of your economy is finished, we can go a step further.
Produce at least 3 Fish.

Allies
10-10
I see that a lot of other settlers have settled very close to you. Maybe you should become friends with some of them? Having allies is never a bad thing…Very good - strong allies will definitely prove useful. Social skills are very important. You should never underestimate that.
Add 1 or more friends to your friends list.

New suggestions

I've just returned from visiting one of your neighbors. A really nice island with interesting building structures. Why don't you visit your neighbor's islands yourself?And did you like the islands? Of course you should always go your own way, but considering suggestions doesn't hurt.
Visit at least 1 friend(s).

Do not forget the economy
12-12
I know Lord Sardin is a bit severe and has you really busy, but despite all that, don't forget your economy, especially your tool production. Is it going well?I see you have everything under control. I just wanted to be sure, but it looks like I worry too much.
Produce at least 5 tool(s) in your workyards.

Mutual help
12-12
So, do you get on with Sardin? He might seem a bit rude but he is a brilliant tactician. But let's get back on topic; the king attaches great importance to neighborly help at the moment. I think it would be good to join forces with one of your neighbors and help them.The king has noted your efforts appreciatively. I congratulate you. You are really doing excellently. Keep it up!
Buff at least 1 of your friends' buildings.

Who has more wheat?
14-14
Please excuse the interruption, but I have a small favor to ask of you. A farmer from a neighboring country has made a bet that his farm has more wheat and water, and I want to prove him wrong. So, we'll be needing more wheat fields!That's really generous of you. With so many wheat fields, we should definitely win the bet.
Have at least 3 (s) on your island.

To multiply the harvest
14-20
We have a lot to harvest on our farm. If you were willing to support us with food, we could multiply our yield. And that would be fantastic, wouldn't it?
If you're feeling extra kind, you could give some food to the workers at your small wells as well!Super! Thank you very much. You will not regret this, believe me. I will begin to help with the harvest immediately.

Good preparation

Please excuse me. I know you are very busy, but I won't disturb you for long. I just wanted to say that as soon as we begin producing bread, we'll be needing a lot of wheat. Maybe it would be best to build farms now so you don't have to deal with it later on?Thank you for following my advice. I'm looking forward to the bread production already. Please contact me if you need my help with it.
Have at least 2 (s) on your island.

Wheat ahead
15-25
I see you have built multiple farms. That's good, because soon we'll be needing horses, and they consume a lot of wheat. It would be best to anticipate and start production now.So, the advice from the farmer was good after all. With this production we are well prepared for the horse breeding that will soon be upon us.
Produce at least 5 Wheat.

Help for the comrade
16-16
A former comrade from the military academy has asked me to help him. He has received orders to defend a village and doesn't have enough bows. I really want to help him. First of all, we'll need a large amount of wood.Hmm… I just told him we would help him, and straight away he asked for more bows. He's always been like that - you give him your pinky and he takes off the whole hand.

Increased consumption

Greetings. I have a small problem. The consumption of hardwood planks has increased a lot lately, especially since your orders for building new residences. I would be very grateful if you could raise stocks a little bit.Thank you. Now I can continue working without problems. I have a feeling that a lot of new construction orders are about to come in.

Nothing but hot air

We agreed on 100 bows. I wonder what he wants to do with them. You could almost win a war with that many. Whatever, it's worth it, believe me.Why did I insist on helping him? I made a bet with another former student that the time will come when he would need my help. Back then, he had rich parents and bragged about it, but I knew it was nothing but hot air.

How do you like the new resources? You can make a lot out of them. Remember that marble deposits deplete quite fast. When you have several, the stonecutter will always choose the nearest one.Of course that also applies to stone deposits. You should always have multiple deposits on your island.
Find 1 new Marble deposit(s).

The trapped child

Something terrible has happened. One of the children has gone into a mine and the mine collapsed after them. Can you help us find the kid? It was an iron mine.Thank you for your help, but please hurry. We don't have much time. Maybe the child is trapped and cannot breath.
Find 1 new Iron Ore deposit(s).

The rescue
20-25
As soon as you build a mine on the deposit, we can start searching. Your mine workers can help search while they are digging.Thank goodness, we found the child. That was close. I will go immediately and tell everybody to stay away from the mines.
Produce at least 50 iron ore in your workyards. Have at least 2 (s) on your island.

Increased water consumption
20-25
Finally we can train cavalry ourselves. How is water production going? We need water for brew as well as the horses, but I don't think there's any chance we will run short of it.I see that water production seems to be quite effective. Don't neglect it, or the cavalry training will cease.
Produce at least 100 Water.

Gift baskets
22-25
Nice to see you again. As expected, my relatives liked the bread very much, but there is still some left. Maybe you should process the bread into gift baskets?Exactly these ones I meant. As you probably know already, you can allocate the baskets to your production buildings, and these will produce more effectively for a certain time.

Wood for longbows
22-25
Do not get distracted by this... What was his name? Klaus? The little fat man, you know who I mean. Do not get too distracted by him. We need hard wood for longbows. Maybe you could increase the production outcome for a short time.It's much better that way. Don't forget to keep an eye on your weapon production, as you need your army when expanding your land. And even if you have enough units, weapons are a fantastic good to trade with.

Coal for training
23-27
Lord Sardin has come to me with an unusual request. I think he was a bit too embarrassed to tell you directly. He says he needs coal for the training of his units, but he didn't want to tell me exactly how he was going to use it. Just send your explorer to find a coal deposit.Maybe you're wonder why you were supposed to search for a coal deposit. Well, Henry told me he is now able to build coal mines, and they are way more effective than the coking plant. This is a good time to try out the new mines.
Find 1 new Coal deposit(s).

The coal mine

Now the only thing left to do is commission the construction of the mine. Meanwhile, I will try to find out why exactly Lord Sardin wants coal. I'd really like to know.I just returned from the barracks. The troops had all painted their faces black. Looked really frightening. I think it's camouflage training. Very strange.

Gold deposits
23-30
One of our geologists just came and told me he thinks we have gold on our island, although he wasn't sure. He needs more time to find out. Send your geologist out to find a gold deposit. Maybe we'll get lucky.I don't believe it - we really do have gold on this island. That is fantastic! Before we begin to bank it, we should check whether we have multiple deposits and how rich they are. Coin production is quite expensive.
Find 1 new Gold Ore deposit(s).

The price of gold
23-30
Hmm… constructing coin production should be handled very carefully, but I have to admit I don't have enough experience to give out advice. What do you think about trading a little with coins to get a feeling for their value?So, what do you think? Did you get an impression? With coins, you can do a lot of different things, not just trade but also hire new specialists. For the moment though, it's a little early to you build your own means of production.
Buy at least 400 Coin(s) from other players.

Ways to the gold
24-30
You can produce coins yourself, trade them, buy them from the merchant or find them on your adventures. Sometimes, even your explorer will take some coins back. Try out all the possible ways and when you are feeling confident, we'll start organizing your own coin production.You've really managed to gather quite a solid amount of capital. Did you have any difficulties? Sleep on it, it and if you still want coin production, we'll start work on it. Meanwhile, you should be able to evaluate it yourself.

Greetings. I see that you are going to begin your own steel production. A good decision - Steel is a fantastic material. Just remember that it will require more coal, so you had better raise your stocks.Very good. Now we will be able to work, and steel production can begin. I will return to my work and make sure production goes smoothly.
