Market & Auctions

The Market is Ironhold's open trade floor. Post resource listings for Gold, cut direct deals with other commanders, or run the auction house for rare items and business deeds.

Resource Listings

  • List wood, stone, iron, food, or gold at a per-unit Gold price.
  • Any commander with the Gold on hand can buy the listing in full or in part.
  • Listings can be cancelled at any time — resources return to your keep.

Direct Trade Offers

  • Send a specific bundle of resources to a specific player and request a specific bundle back.
  • Attach a short message. The recipient can accept, reject, or counter.
  • Trades resolve atomically — either both sides transfer or neither does.

Auction House

  • Items and business deeds both auction here.
  • Set a starting bid and a duration. Bids raise the current price until the timer expires.
  • Selling a business deed transfers ownership on settle — all existing employees are terminated.

Trading Leaderboard

Every completed listing, trade, and auction settlement contributes to your Trading score, tracked both weekly and lifetime on the leaderboard.
