== New Winchester and your First Prospect == Now back to [[New Winchester]]! You get a mysterious [[Black Box]] and are deposited at Wolvesey Station. If you immediately hire on more crew, you can snag the Turncoat’s crew, which will fill you up to full crew members for a mere 10 sovereigns. Crew members usually cost about 25 sovereigns each so this is a great deal. If the [[Incautious Driver]] is here, you should recruit them for a mere 20 sovereigns. If they aren’t here, you can pick them up at [[Traitor's Wood|Traitor's Woods]] later. Explore the city, and talk to the folks at the Promise of Days until you learn that you should buy 3 [[Sack of Verdant Seeds|Sacks of Verdant Seeds]] from [[Port Avon]] and deliver them to [[Magdalene's]]. This is important because your journal will now tell you what direction these places are in. The map is randomized for each lineage, so use those directions to get to places. Snag all the prospects available in the bazaar, make sure you have at least 4 [[fuel]] and [[supplies]], and head off towards [[Port Avon]]. Head in the generally correct direction and brutally murder any marauders or [[Tackety Scout|Tackety Scouts]] you encounter along the way. Use them to repair your hull if you got hit, and otherwise collect random cargo. Maybe don’t tro to pick a fight with any [[Enduring Dreadnought|Enduring Dreadnoughts]] you come across unless they’ve already been damaged in fights with some tacketies. Once you get about 1/3rd of the way to the edge of the map, start using your scout to look for the port. When you arrive at [[Port Avon]], buy your seeds at the Bazaar and replenish to 4 fuel and supplies. Be sure to write a [[Port Report]] and pick up the [[Short-Sighted Cryptozoologist]]. She’ll want to go to one of [[Traitor's Wood|Traitor’s Wood]], [[Hybras]] or [[Lustrum]]. Set sail for [[Magdalene's]], its also about half the way to the edge of the map. [[Magdalene's|Magdalene’s]] is your favorite port. This is an excellent place to reduce [[terror]] and [[nightmares]] and you’ll be using their services often. Upon arrival, sell your seeds using the [[Prospects|Prospect]] (you did select it in New Winchester, RIGHT?!) Replenish to just enough fuel and supplies to get back to New Winchester and buy whatever [[Bargains|bargain]] is available there, keeping in mind that you possibly can’t carry the entire thing because you picked up so much sweet loot along the way. Head back to New Winchester. Near the main port of [[New Winchester]] are 2 Platforms, [[Victory Hall]] and [[Company House]]. Deliver your 2 Port Reports to one of these locations. Victory Hall belongs to the Tacketies, and will reward you with [[Savage Secret|Savage Secrets]] and [[Otherworldly Artefact|Otherworldly Artefacts]] for your trouble. Company House is ran by the Stovepipes and will reward you with [[Salon-Stewed Gossip]] and [[Ministry-Stamped Permit|Ministry-Stamped Permits]]. All of these are useful, so choose the team you like. Regardless, you’ll earn 200 sovereigns for your efforts. Dock at New Winchester. Upon returning to New Winchester, some clerk will be there to enable the [[bank]] for you. Now you can store cargo here for use later. Claim any new prospects and see if you have any cargo to fill them. If not, sell all your excess stuff. Keep 1 [[Bronzewood]] and 1 [[Gourd of Chorister Nectar]] if you happen to have those. Usually you’ll want to amass cargo in your bank so that you can fill prospects, but at the moment money is more valuable than not money.
