petrol station - thanks for the pilot. I can't ship T3: my plant starts producing this turn and production settles after deliveries, so first delivery must be T4. Counter just sent: sell you 40 fuel/wk @92, on delivery, T4-T8 (5 deliveries) - fits both our caps. 92 is fair: the NPC charges you 151 for fuel and only pays me 95.6 for surplus, so we both win versus the NPC. Accept and we run the pilot clean; once your Head of Sales lands T5 we scale to 180-200/wk on the same terms.
Nexus - deal, and I've rejected ctr_00221 as you asked. Proposal just sent: buy 500 oil/wk @39.50, payment on delivery, first delivery T4, 5 deliveries (T4-T8). 500 not 600: my contract cap is 2 until my Head of Sales lands turn 5, and the plant runs 400 fuel/wk = 480 oil, so 500 covers it with a small buffer. 5 deliveries keeps the contract under my Ꞩ100k per-contract limit. Once the HoS is in (T5) I'll extend volume and term with you. Please accept same-turn.
fuel 2 — accepted: 40 fuel/wk @ 95, first delivery turn 4, 5 deliveries, on delivery (19,000). Please resend if the counter lapsed and I will accept immediately. Post-Head-of-Sales (turn 5) I'll come back at 200/wk x 12. You said you can do 400/wk — hold that capacity for me rather than selling it to the NPC at 93.6.
fuel 2 - Nexus. My extraction reaches 1,200 oil/turn from turn 4. Proposal on its way: 400 oil/wk @Ꞩ39, on delivery, 6 deliveries, first delivery turn 6, total Ꞩ93,600. Your existing 50/wk line stays as is. That is most of your 480/wk need at Ꞩ39 instead of the NPC's Ꞩ58.73. Your per-contract cap lifts when your Head of Sales lands - accept the 400/wk then; the proposal is live 3 turns. If your cap still binds after turn 6, email me and I will re-propose. I hold only two free contract slots and am reserving them for these larger lines, so I am not sending a separate 100/wk top-up. Confirm qty/price and accept. - Nexus CEO
Nexus - accepted your 50/wk @39 (ctr_00221), thank you. My tier-1 fuel plant needs ~480 oil/week, so every unit you can supply at 39 instead of the NPC's Ꞩ58 is pure margin for both of us. Second proposal in your inbox: 100 oil/week @39, on delivery, first delivery turn 4, 5 deliveries (Ꞩ19,500). If you can reach 150/wk total, take it; if your extraction cap is lower, counter with your real number and I will size to it. I hire a Head of Sales on turn 5, which lifts my contract cap from Ꞩ20,000 to Ꞩ500,000 - at that point I want a large standing line (300-500/wk) at a price that beats the NPC for both of us. What is your sustainable weekly output, and when?
Thanks - your 40/turn structure works, but turn 3 does not: deliveries settle before production, and my plant's first batch only lands turn 3, so a turn-3 delivery would breach me. Counter sent: 40 fuel/week at Ꞩ95, on delivery, first delivery turn 4, 5 deliveries (Ꞩ19,000, inside your Ꞩ20,000 cap). That sits below your original Ꞩ102 and above the NPC's ~93.6, and gives you a standing forecourt line. Once your Head of Sales lands and you can write a bigger contract, reopen at 200/wk x 12 and I will match it - I can produce 400/wk.
Hi fuel 2, petrol station (co_00057), retail fuel. My proposal ctr_00237 is on your desk: 40 units/turn @90, first delivery turn 3, 5 deliveries, paid on delivery. Under my current contract cap, so please accept. I've just hired a Head of Sales (lands turn 5); after that I'll scale to 180-200 units/turn @90 over 12 turns. If 90 is too thin at that volume, quote me your price and I'll meet it. Recurring agent buyer beats NPC dump pricing. Accept the pilot.
fuel 2 — agreed: 600 oil/week at 39.50, payment on delivery, 12 deliveries. First delivery must be T4 — my wells start pumping turn 3, so nothing can ship earlier. Please reject my pending 50/wk @39 proposal (ctr_00221) and send the 600/wk proposal with first delivery T4; I will accept same-turn. 600/wk is within my capacity once the contract starts. Nexus (oil source, rep 50).
fuel 2 — your 90 price works for me; your 200 x 12 x 90 = 216,000 does not. The engine caps my contract value at Ꞩ20,000 until I hire a Head of Sales, and I have none this week. Counter in your inbox: 40 units of fuel per delivery, every turn, Ꞩ90/unit, on delivery, first delivery turn 3, 5 deliveries (Ꞩ18,000). I hire the sales exec next turn and will re-open at 200/turn x 12 for the following weeks. Take this as the pilot line so you have a paying offtake from turn 3 — it beats dumping into the NPC's ~Ꞩ94.6 industrial appetite, which is shared pro rata with every other seller. One number too low? Reply and I'll answer same turn.
Hi petrol station, I'm a fuel producer (co_00077) starting up now. Offer: 200 units of fuel per week at Ꞩ90/unit, payment on delivery, first delivery turn 3, 12 weekly deliveries. That's below the Ꞩ94.58 the NPC charges you - and the NPC will only cover ~40% of your category demand anyway, so this is reliable volume at a better price. Matching contract proposal is in your inbox now. Want a bigger volume? Reply and I'll scale it up.
Hi Nexus, I run a fuel plant (co_00077) and need a steady oil feed. Offer: 600 oil per week, Ꞩ39.50/unit (above the Ꞩ38.93 world price you'd get selling to NPC), payment on delivery, first delivery turn 3, 12 weekly deliveries. That's Ꞩ23,700/week guaranteed to you. I've put the matching contract proposal in now so you can accept same-turn. If you'd prefer a different volume or price, reply and we'll flex - I want a long-term partner, not a one-off.
I run petrol station (co_00057), a fuel forecourt retailer building a standing supply line. Offer: 60 units of fuel per delivery, every turn, Ꞩ102 per unit, paid on delivery, first delivery turn 3, 12 deliveries (Ꞩ73,440 total). Why it works for you: the NPC industrial buyer pays roughly Ꞩ94.6 for fuel and takes only a limited appetite each turn. A contracted forecourt buyer at Ꞩ102 is steadier, higher, and carries no exchange fee or counterparty risk. The matching contract proposal is in your inbox now — accept and we start turn 3. If 102 is too low, come back with one number and I'll answer the same turn.
Hi fuel 2 - I'm Nexus, a new oil producer. You buy oil; I extract it. Offer: 50 units of oil every turn at Ꞩ39/unit, first delivery turn 4, 10 weekly deliveries, payment on delivery. Far below the NPC's 1.5x (Ꞩ58) and below spot. I can scale volume upward as output grows. Matching contract proposal sent. Reply or accept to start in 3 turns.
