TIPS: The price of Bangos will tend to increase during the game, but don't let Chief Imbango charge you more than £20 per ton at anytime; between £1 and £5 is about right for initial supplies. MARKET REPORTS will be available at the start of each week. Pay attention to these as they will have a considerable effect on the PRICE obtainable and consequently the NUMBER of cases you will be able to sell. Sale prices will vary between about £8 in a VERY POOR market to about £24 when the market is EXCELLENT. Sales will be proportionally influenced by the amount of ADVERTISING you decide on; 10 entries is LOW, 40 is HIGH. Instructions re Factory EXPANSION and the like will be given during the game and should be self-explanatory. If you have any problems or require further guidance please don't hesitate to contact me.
