Notes:

  • The above is a territory map, not a map of jungle density (which constantly changes). Therefore, the jungle and village squares will very likely be colored differently in-game than they are here. However, squares within the village of York will be displayed as "York" on the game map, while jungle squares will be displayed as "Jungle".

York: A Rough Guide

Click to enlarge.

Frequently refered to as the 'big city' of Shartak, York already has a colourful and frequently bloody history. Its central location led to a brutal native invasion in the early days of the settlement, swiftly followed by a pirate invasion that has shaped the town into a notorious den of anti-pirate sentiment.

York was the first town to host a full-time police force, and was also the birthplace of the Mercenary's Guild. It also boasts the island's first Tavern (Czechy's, at (11,09) on the map above), first and only newspaper, and secret society, and the island's first hospital.

Survival Tips: If you're just visiting, try to stay clear of the power struggles and not to upset any of the major groups. Sleep somewhere like CzEcHy's Tavern or the RE field hospital so that the Colonial Police will know if you get attacked. Take extra care if you're a pirate - several groups will attack you without provocation.

Points of interest

Medical Supplies Hut

The busiest place in York, regularly featuring upwards of two dozen people inside at any one time. As you can see on the map above, it is located in the far north end of York. The coordinates are -70.369,+26.320. The hut is filled with crates which contain abandonded medical supplies, which people freely take, to heal themselves, to heal others, and for monetary gain (trade them in for gold, especially in towns without access to first aid kits who will pay top dollar for them, the three native towns and the shipwreck). There are several doctors who have taken up residence there, and many wounded people come into the medical hut to be healed. A constant problem in the hut is spirits wailing and injuring people, but several friendly shamans (notably lacuna) have taken up the job of keeping it free of hostile spirits. Renegades who murder these friendly pro-York shamans are hated by all.

Trader Harry's

The trading hut in York, located at -70.367,+26.313. <add information>

CzEcHy's Tavern

1 west of the Traders hut, located at -70.368,+26.313 is the astoundingly wonderful Tavern owned by czech1. Feel free to drop by and spend a night or two in safety. Whether you're a pirate, a native, or an elusive murderer wanted by all, you're still welcome at the tavern (as long as you dont kill anyone inside.) CzEcHy's Tavern WikiPage

Trail to Derby

Starting 1 NE of the ammunition hut (09,05), go 10 paces NE. Then just follow the instructions carved every 5 squares (where possible), and you should soon find yourself in Derby. The trail is 270 paces long, which will take you about 4 days without Trekking or 2 days with it. NOTE: This trail has been shutdown by the ecoterrorist actions of the SPF, and is currently inoperative. (Shartak Presevation Front)
