How to Play as a Caravan Guard
- Stay Alert in High-Risk Areas: The Caravan Camp and Routes are prime targets for potential robberies. Keep an eye on anyone suspicious and stay close to Caravan Traders handling high-value goods.
- Coordinate with Other Guards: Work alongside other guards when escorting high-profile shipments or facing increased threat levels. Regular communication with your team can differentiate between a successful job and a costly ambush.
- Control Access to the Camp: High-value goods, especially weapon shipments and medical supplies, attract attention. Ensure only authorized personnel have access to Caravan Company assets and prevent looting.
- Respond Quickly to Attacks: Raiders, scavengers, or competitors may attempt to steal goods or attack traders. Be prepared to respond with force when necessary, but always keep the Caravan Trader’s safety as the priority.
