The Humble Merchant

Recommended Posts

I'm looking to start a new game as a merchant character and try to avoid combat entirely. I'm compiling a mod list that will try to enhance this style of play. I'm still looking for ideas and feedback before I start my game, so I've not tested most of these mods yet so it's entirely possible some of them are pants.

 

Here's what I have so far:

Early game jobs

Immersive Woodcutting - earn money by being a lumberjack

Goranga restaurant job - work at a restaurant

CLS-Craftybits V08 BETA - Oblivion crafting system

Random Tasks - randomly generated collection quests

Gold Horse Courier - get a job as a courier

Player Fishing Mod - fish!

Complete Gardening - allows the player to cultivate a garden

Graverobber BETA1 - rob graves for a living

Ashs Odd Jobs II - available jobs in the Imperial City

 

Later game investments

Bank of Cyrodiil - bank your gold to earn interest

SoTs The Order Of Nibenay] - run a guild, purchase upgrades, earn income

Brew House - buy a farm and farm plants and animals

Mining Company - purchase mines, hire miners

Tamriel Resource Exchange - buy and sell shares on the stock market

Ls Rentable Player Homes - buy vanilla oblivion houses and rent them out for a steady profit

Goranga traveling merchant - buy stock and sell to npcs at higher prices

Big Business - acquire an estate, purchase upgrades and hire workers

Pats Business Mod Shopkeeper - own a store in Chorrol, purchase new stock and hire staff

Imperial Bank of Cyrodiil - own several homes, businesses, take out loans, and earn interest

 

Player Homes

Valley View Estate - manor with vineyard that can produce wine and brandies

Shadowcrest Vineyard and Shadowcrest Vineyard COBL - estate that can produce wine

Aleswell Cottage ver 4 - cottage with crafting facilities

Millstone Farm And Millstone Farm COBL - farm with crafting facilities

Red Rose Manor ver 2_2 - Manor with crafting facilities

 

Companions

Companion Vilja - has avoid combat mode

Mercenary Svenja - fighter which costs a set wage every 5 days

Companions for Hire 02 - Athgar - companion that costs 200 gold every 4 days

Packdonkeys ver 2 1 - donkeys to move inventory between locations

 

Gameplay

Oblivion -Elys- NoFastTravel - disables fast travel

Persuasion Overhaul OBSE - more immersive persuasion system

 

I'm looking for any feedback on the mentioned mods or this style of gameplay, as well as other suggestions for mods which may compliment this style. I like to see some more hire-able guards/mercenaries in order for the PC to avoid combat while traveling, but free companions seem too easy. As always, more things to spend money on is always a good thing, and any additional non-combat quests would be welcome too.
