Note: this table currently excludes Phkb's Smugglers. It too has a major affect on trade and economics, but is not directly comparable with the above, since it works on prohibiting trade (thus encouraging smuggling and a black market) which then impacts massively on pricing.

This table also ignores some brilliant oxp's which introduce a focus on just one aspect of economics.

• Black Monk Monastery introduces loans
• Darkside Moonshine Distillery introduces distance from production as an affect on price.
• Diplomancy OXP introduces taxes
