To get trade ships, you need to build a shipyard and construct your first vessel - it's a pretty straightforward process. You'll need to gather resources, like wood and iron, to build and upgrade your ships. As you progress, you'll unlock new types of ships and upgrades to boost your trading capabilities.
The gameplay loop is all about finding the best trade routes, managing your fleet, and optimizing your cargo holds. You'll need to balance the demand and supply of goods, as well as navigate through treacherous waters and avoid rival traders. It's a challenge, but it's so rewarding when you score a big profit!
