 * Land trade: Use a trade cart to travel between your market and the market of another player to generate gold. The farther the distance between the two markets, the more gold is generated.
 * Water trade: Use a trade cog to travel between your dock and the dock of another player to generate gold. The farther the distance between the two docks, the more gold is generated.
 * Market: Trade gold for food, wood, or stone.
