Cargo Ledger — Logistics Hub

Tides of Fortune Cargo Ledger — harbor inventory hub linking nearby storage crates, ship cargo management, and Market trading workflow for ARK fleets.

Cargo Ledger Overview

The Cargo Ledger is Tides of Fortune's central logistics structure — a harbor building that monitors and withdraws items from nearby storage containers through a single interface. Patch 89.25 introduced it alongside Market and Bounty Board as part of the pirate harbor economy ecosystem.

Fleet captains managing multiple Brigantines, treasure haul stockpiles, and trade good inventories benefit enormously from Cargo Ledger consolidation. Instead of running between storage boxes, pull resources centrally and list goods on Market without downtime.

Cargo Ledger pairs with Merchant skill tree investments for amplified trade efficiency. Merchant builds treat the Ledger as mandatory harbor infrastructure alongside Shipyard and Market.

Setup and Workflow

Unlock the Cargo Ledger engram through Genesis Part 1 milestones. Place adjacent to your Shipyard and Market for optimal dock-to-trade workflow. The Ledger automatically links to storage crates within range.

Recommended harbor layout: Shipyard (center) → Market → Bounty Board → Cargo Ledger. This cluster creates a one-stop naval operations port where captains resupply, accept contracts, and manage inventory without walking between scattered boxes.

Organize linked storage by category: ammunition crates, treasure loot, construction materials, and trade goods. Label containers mentally or by placement position — the Ledger displays contents from all linked boxes in one view.

Fleet and Trade Integration

Unload Brigantine cargo holds into Ledger-linked storage after treasure runs and Ocean Outpost raids. Sort high-value items for immediate Market listing, bulk resources for construction, and surplus for tribal distribution.

Merchant captains activate the Merchant active ability during high-volume Ledger-to-Market transfer sessions for amplified profit margins. Batch transfers during protected trade windows maximize economic returns.

After Patch 91.18 fixed Bounty Board contract completion across server restarts, Ledger-Market-Bounty Board loops are fully reliable for daily harbor economy cycles.
