Trading Post

The Trading Post is a human outpost on the Mars of the late 19th century.

Description
This trading post is by everyone considered neutral ground for (even Raxachk waited until Cooter was far away from it). It is located at 13°S 128°W in the hills of Arsia Mons, just south of Olympus. This is the only place on all of Mars, where an adventurer can buy ammunition and supplies, as the only other person willing to trade - William Randolph Hearst in Olympus - only offers junk and weapons.

History
After stranding on the planet, Buffalo Bill and his associates quickly realized how they could get into an important position when supplies were scarce on Mars and established this outpost near Olympus. Particularly interested in the mineral oxium, both Buffalo Bill and Calamity Jane were willing to trade oxium for various other items, such as ammunition for weapons, warm clothes and various other useful equipment, as well as Martian Berries. Purple berries could also be traded for oxium. Cooter McGee, the Post's main oxium supplier, had gone missing after running afoul of Raxachk, but was later rescued by the Avatar at the request of his colleagues.

Cody, Jane, and McGee returned to Earth once the new space cannon was completed and ready to depart.

Trivia

 * It is entirely possible when not closing the door to the house, that hostile wildlife enters the trading post, killing the inhabitants horribly. That then means a game over.
 * This is the main supply line for all kind of ammunition and supplies.
