Merchants
From: Andrew Burt
• 1 Bag pasta shapes or macaroni
• 1 Bag dried peas or soya beans
Split the pack or troop into 2 teams and give one team 6 macaroni (Gold) and the other team 6 dried peas (Silver). Explain that the teams should try to make as much money as possible in the time available. They may do this by trading with the 2 merchants (leaders) who will be roaming around. One merchant will give you 2 gold for 1 silver, the other will give you 2 silver for every 1 gold. The team with the most money by the end of the game wins (count silver and gold as equal value).
Refinement:
The merchants may swap their bags to confuse the players
Refinement:
Player and/or other leaders may steal from other players using tagging or lives.
Refinement:
Introduce another trading stage and merchant (and possibly another team) eg. bronze or platinum. Merchants only trade bronze for silver, silver for gold, gold for bronze.
