| |
| '''General stores''' were [[Merchants|trading posts]] present in the 18th century [[Caribbean]] and [[United States|Colonial America]].
| |
| | |
| Unlike the specialized 15th and 16th century merchants, general stores offered a variety of supplies, ranging from [[Swords and maces|melee]] and [[Firearms|ranged]] weapons, ammunition, [[hunting]] supplies, [[Tailors|outfits]], and [[maps]].<ref name="AC3">''[[Assassin's Creed III]]''</ref><ref name="AC4">''[[Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag]]''</ref>
| |
| | |
| The stores in the Colonies were located in the major cities such as [[Boston]] and [[New York City|New York]], and in the [[Frontier]]. The [[Kanien'kehá:ka]] [[Assassins|Assassin]] [[Ratonhnhaké:ton]] could trade in his hunting spoils at any of these stores.<ref name="AC3"/>
| |
| | |
| Each store possessed an accounting book, through which Ratonhnhaké:ton could trade the goods crafted by the [[Crafting (Assassin's Creed III)|artisans]] of the [[Davenport Homestead]], as well as manage the convoys that would be sent to the other colonies across America.<ref name="AC3"/>
| |
| | |
| In the Caribbean, general stores were found in the cities of [[Havana]], [[Kingston]], and [[Nassau]], as well as many minor islands around the West Indies. One store was also funded by [[Edward Kenway]] and built on the [[Great Inagua]]. Unlike the stores in the Colonies, those around the West Indies allowed Edward to buy hunting goods to be used for [[Crafting (Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag)|crafting]], as well as sell them.<ref name="AC4"/>
