Change the following paragraph in the rule Treasure from:

An effect of Enchantment may be invoked by the Captain whom owns the respective Treasure once per day (unless otherwise stated in the Treasure’s Enchantment description) and may modify any of the invoking Captain’s stats or general game condition by a specified magnitute for: a specified amount of time; until some specified event occurs; or as a discrete instantaneous action. When a Captain acquires Treasure, e may keep it for as long as e wishes, or sell it whenever e is at Port. When a Captain sells Treasure, it ceases to exist and that Captain adds it’s Gold Value to er own Gold. A Captain in posession of a Treasure may invoke its magical Enchantment when e so wishes if that Treasure has not been used previously within the specified use-limit period.

If the A Captain in posession of a Treasure may invoke its magical Enchantment when e so wishes if that Treasure has not been used previously within the specified use-limit period.

Add the following to the rule Treasure:

There is a section in the Treasures Page that lists the treasures for sale.  As a weekly action, a Captain may buy a piece of treasure.  The Captain loses an amount of gold equal to the gold value of the treasure.  The Captain then owns that treasure.

against I like the idea, but am not so happy with the exact wording in this.

One thing that is helpful, when you are quoting a large block of text and changing a bit of it, is to put your changes in bold, for emphasis.

1. Buying treasures should not be a weekly action.
2. A captain should not be able to buy a treasure unless e has at least the value of the treasure in gold.
3. A captain should not be able to buy a treasure unless e is at eir home land.

P.S. Following the “Diggin’” proposal, someone needs to propose a fix that changes Port to Home Land.

Also, this proposal needs to reflect the changes made in Fixes to locations.
