I just picked up on something that seems a bit unfair to our savage friends of the Indian Alliance. The following is the lead in tag for the Colonial Tavern: <font color="yellow"> <blockquote id="quote"><font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica" id="quote">quote:<hr height="1" noshade id="quote">Welcome to the Colonial Tavern where Tories, Whigs, Colonials, Hessians and French Officers and Indian Chiefs are all treated equally. We don't care what color your uniform is (or lack there of) as long as your money is silver and gold...<hr height="1" noshade id="quote"></blockquote id="quote"></font id="quote"></font id="yellow"> Now it seems to me this is akin to a "No Indians Allowed" sign on the door. As we all know the poor savages don't carry much silver or gold coin. In all fairness if we expect to allow them in we must accept whatever form of payment they can produce. After all it is the 18th Century and the barter system is still alive and well! Of course you'll have to set up some kind of system for example: Flagon of Beer--one muskrat pelt Two Jiggers of Rum--a fair sized skunk skin Bottle of Madiera--Large good quality beaver skin keg of Good English Ale---two deer, two fox & a black bear skin Bottle of French Brandy Wine--4 good quality mink or ermine Some of General Washington's Applejack--Two Redcoat scalps |
