Ports allow a small land unit, an Element or a Courier, to travel vast distances in TribeNet using a Port network. This is useful for missions, exploration, and trade.

After two years of extensive travel, Bradshores has released their long-awaited guide to the Ports of TribeNet.
Once at a Port, you may nominate to travel to any other Port using GOTO Orders. See GM for details.
Travel via this method is possible for Elements and Couriers only. Maximum size of unit is 100 people, up to 30 large animals or 100 Goats may be taken in addition to 5 Wagons. The quantity of goods that can be ported is 5 Wagonload (animals do not count towards carrying capacity).
The cost is 10 Gold paid at point of departure as Transfer to 1263 and flagged in GM Actions. The trip takes two months. First move is GOTO RB 2317. On the following turn you GOTO destination Port hex.
The Port trip is a rather grand event, somewhat equivalent to The Grand Tour, and in this respect, you must wait at least 6 months before making a second departure. Combat is not possible in Port hexes.
The list of Ports below is organized by rows from north to south.
