Hi, something went wrong with the first post it seems, so here's the 2nd try.

So I've been playing UWO for a little while now, got my character leveled up some and then I all of a sudden was able to invest in a city, but:

I don't quite understand what the advantage is of investing in a city.

Also, I think I invested in Jaffa and Beirut but I'm not sure. Is there any way I can see which cities I've invested in?

Apart from that I see lots of people running around with what seems to be a crew (I'm guessing it's a main character being followed through town by 2 crewmembers). I thought this might be the "aide", but I've gotten myself an aide yet I'm still alone (I also don't know how to use their inventory for more storage). Have I missed some "deploy" option, or am I just missing the point here?

Help is appreciated :) Thanks in advance!

Investment in a city gets you more items to buy at the market, better
haggling and lower prices at the market, especially if you convert the
city to your nationality, as well trade fame. As for 3 toons, that's the
most you can run from one router. Some players run 3 toons with 2
desktops, running two toons through 1 desktop and one toon through the
second desktop, all on one 'puter. However, I'd recommend getting your
sea legs with one toon, then multi-toon later. However, do create a
second account and at least one storage toon with it, it doesn't have to
sail and frees up our characters inventory without having to sell stuff
you'd rather not sell or toss.
