I voted for option two (market), but on further consideration I say option 1 is what I would pick.

Problems w/ market:
a) Clanmakes could transfer strat gold without having to be near each other within strat, destroying some of the logistical aspects of strat
b) Richer/established players would have a much larger strat advantage because they could buy gold more easily (granted there is still a market for this now, but streamlining the process would make it much more frequent I think).

I like the fact that the 1:10 conversion would remove the strat gold entirely, but would provide incentive for players to get involved in strat if not just to bolster their cRPG characters.

I voted for the Marketplace option, however, I think that the current ideas being tossed around in Selling > Srategus are pretty fun.

Prices change due to risk on there. Local Pickups people normally charge regular rate for, however if they have to travel it doubles, sometimes triples. I know if the Hospitaller Faction requested to purchase Strat gold with their location, someone would have to pass through FCC territory, and a lot of traders would make the option to not make the trip....though it would be fun to see the ones who would!

To give independent players more of an incentive to play strat and make some money in it, I want to ease the way of trading strat gold with cRPG gold. See options above.


I think the option to play Strategus needs to be much clearer so more people can get involved, maybe something on the c-rpg.net front page or a tab in the character page area that takes you into Strategus. 

On the siege server the other night I saw someone asking if they could get an invite to join strategus because they thought only clans had the link.
