Galactic Bazaar

Galactic Bazaar

Bazaar

The Galactic Bazaar is a galactic exchange where the various Strategic Resources can be bought and sold.

The final three resource slots in the Galactic Bazaar are reserved for three of the rarer Strategic Resources, such as Harmony Crystals or Xanthium Deposits, found throughout the galaxy, and these three choices are rotated on a four-turn/month basis.

Prices fluctuate naturally during the course of the game and also change according to how many of each resource the player and AI Civilizations purchase or sell to or from the Galactic Bazaar. Abundant resources that are heavily traded by players will tend to be cheaper, while rarer resources in short supply will be more expensive to purchase, and command a higher price when selling too.
