Do Market Buyers go to Storage Yards like Granaries?
The short answer is “Yes,” but…. Grumpus (a Pharaoh Heaven Board Member) explains: “Market Buyers will only take food from a storage yard if that food is being imported. Once you start importing a food, you can also grow it at home,(if that is possible) and you will not need granaries for that food.” Ironrodiken of Impressions further explains: “As Grumpus said, in most missions, your people will need Granaries if they’re to eat homegrown food at all.
