Campaign 2 : It's All Mine

Isla del Hierro is full of... potential. Mine away, with the help of CEO Keith Preston, and make yourself a wealthy Presidente : you'll need it for later.

Primary Missions :

One Billion Reasons - Build a Mine.
>>> 10,000$
Simple enough, there are two iron deposits right next to your town.
Partners ? - Export 500 Iron.
>>> 15,000$ to Swiss Bank Account
Just let it roll.

- Export 500 Gold / Bauxite / Salt
>>> 15,000$ to Swiss Bank Account
Gold is the most expensive commodity of the three, ans is readily available nearby, so build 2 gold mines, a garage and road them to your town.

Prospectors - Pay 10,000$
>>> New resources on your map.
Not particularily useful, but needed to complete the mission.

??? - Choose a Reward
>>> +10 respect from everyone
>>> +5% ore prices
>>> 10,000$
In the long run, i would suggest the increased ore prices. Respect can be bought with the right buildings, after all.

A Drill from China - Pay 10,000$
>>> Save the miners (maybe?)
Sounds a little dodgy, but what choice do you have?

Made in China - Choose an Affliction
>>> -50 relations with China for 3 years
>>> -10 respect from Tropicans for 2 years
>>> Unknown effect (+ China Relations).
No reason to pick negative effects right?
A Rescue Plan Of Our Own - Build an Academy of Science
>>> N/A
No more trusting foreigners !

Gray Matter Matters - Have 4 Professors
>>> N/A
These can come from Radar Dishes, Colleges or your Academy of Science.

You'll be given a choice : to save the miners or to wait. These are the outcomes :
Wait Once > +10,000$ / You will be given the remainder 25,000$ if you ever fall short of cash in a further mission.
Wait Twice > +15,000$ (stop here).
Wait More > A warning by Penultimo (or here).
Wait Again > An uprising will be triggered. Good luck with that. You will get the achievement "Iron Fist".
In any case, the miners will then be free.

Get Rich - Make 100,000$ from exports.
>>> Win the Mission
The more mines you have, the faster this will go. It took 3 freighter trips with my 5 mines from the "Corner the Market" secondary mission.


Secondary Missions :

Dumping Prices - Choose a Reward.
>>> 10,000$ to Treasury and -10% Iron price.
>>> 10,000$ to Swiss Bank Account and -10% Iron price.
>>> No cash, no price change.
Iron prices will soon drop anyway, so you'll have to mine something else. Pick the swiss bank account unless you need the cash.

Dust Disease - Have a doctor.
>>> Stop the continuous deaths of valuable miners.
Build a clinic and hire a doctor if necessary.

Corner The Market - Have a total of 5 Mines or Salt Mines.
>>> Ore prices increase by 10%.


Other Notes :
- Set your Avatar to Miner before the start of the mission for 50% extra production from mines.
- Having a second dock can help reduce the pressure of having to wait for the next boat for exports.
- Since most of your cash will come from imports, you might want to build a Customs Office.
