Suggestion: Shops in Embassies? | Suggestion Box | Forum

This sort of hit me all at once.  I had just posted in Tony's thread about Command Shops (which is awesome, btw), and then I was looking at how I could change my red "No" under Embassies on the Lore Wiki to the nice green "Yes."

As I thought about it, I asked myself...."Why?"

And it's true, Embassies aren't worth a whole lot.  I would love to make one, but they're expensive and they don't really serve a function.

And in fact, I already have an Embassy.  It's called Highmoor Exports, my standalone shop.  Of course the Embassies are in better positions, and are larger, but really I don't need two of them.

So I asked myself, what if an Embassy could have a shop in it?

• It frees up a slot for someone else to have one of the limited standalone shops
• It gives an actual purpose and use to the Embassies
• It provides a draw to the Embassies, so that while people shop they might see more information about the city.
• It draws people into Embassy Row.

So my suggestion is to allow those with Embassies to place a shop inside it.  If this would increase the cost of the embassy, then so be it, I guess.  But to free up that slot for other players, this would serve as the standalone shop for that player (so no standalone shop and Embassy).
