Products that can be sold - Ideas needed

[MoonSlinger]

I am in the making of a manufacture + sales game :thup:
[SIZE="+1"]Business in Lordaeron - The Entrepreneur [/SIZE]

Game, in a nutshell:
- Buy resources
- Your Factory process these resources into products
- Drag customers into your shop, and sell your products for a profit
- Tentatively: The Winner = First to be a millionaire (Reach 1 million gold)
- There is an option to sabotage other players, but it cost gold.


At the moment:
There are 4 resource points which produce 8 resources -> I am incline to have up to 12 different resources:
Graveyard (Bones, Poison), Port (Water, Fish), Mine (Metal, Gems), Forest (Lumber, Leather)

The Customers are divided into 4 races (Human, Orc, Undead, NE)

Products are set so they appeal to 2 of the 4 races.
i.e. 2 Races will buy it while the other 2 Races will avoid it


What I need:
I need products....
- I need ideas of products a player can Manufacture / Sell
- Icon representation
- Raw materials needed to make them
- Target market which the product sells (2 of 4 races)
- Short Description + why only 2 races buy it


Notes:
- I need items that can be mass produced
- I do not intend to have import icons
- If you need some other raw-material, do suggest
- All items will come with a little tag at the bottom: player who suggested it.
- It is OK to be funny
- Try to be logical, Bones + Lumber don't create Metal Helmet... you need metal for it.



Example1:

Spoiler

Name: Hallucination Potion
Icon: Potion of Omniscience
Materials: 2 Water + 1 Poison + 1 Fish
Customers: Humans, Orcs
Description:
- Hallucination Potion is like dope, when taken, it gives a "High" feeling to the user, turning this dull looking world into something more interesting.
- Humans and Orcs sometimes use it to "Travel to Mars". Night Elves scorn its use while Undeads don't even know what "Mars" is.

Example2:

Spoiler

Name: Leather Body-Hugging Suit
Icon: Ancient Figurine
Materials: 2 Leather + 1 Metal
Customers: Humans, Night Elves
Description:
- Each Leather Body-Hugging Suit is made from top quality leather and woven together with metallic threads. It is both trendy and durable.
- Humans like trendy clothes while Night Elves use them as light-armor. Orcs think leather is food. Undeads only wear rags.

How about an AK-47 with sword bullets? And a turban to go with it.
Icon: I don't know
Materials: You need fabric, some wood, some metal, and some gunpowder. And a terrorist.
Customers: Those who know about the black market
Description: You get your very own terrorist to run amok in the city!

Gems, metal and leather

Super shiny and sexy 2 piece combat swim suit.
Worn by nightelves and human women, sometimes men???

Orcs think the concept of a "swim suit" is degrading, while the undead dont like jewls

icon: moon armor (upgrade)

ALSO, CHEESE, requiers... fish???

 

[demotry241]

bacon
icon=any meat.

requires : pig.

customers, orc and human,

since night elves are veggies and the dead can't eat.

then add quote

"push button receive bacon."

 

[MoonSlinger]

Seems like there are some I can use :thup:
Slightly edited to fit my purpose

Spoiler

Name: Steam Fish
Icon: Murloc Tiderunner
Materials: 2 Fish + 1 Water + 1 Lumber (Fire)
Customers: Humans, Orcs
Description:
- Excellent fish fillet boiled with old-style camp fire, served with soup
- Since night elves are veggies and the dead can't eat... only humans and orcs can taste this delicacy.

Spoiler

Name: One more chance
Icon: Animate Dead
Materials: 3 Bones + 3 Water
Customers: Humans, Undead
Description:
- Gives the owner one more chance to live; When used , it converts the user back into the living for one day.
- Undeads love this product, its their ticket back to the living. Some humans stock this up for emergencies. Night Elves for their religion and Orcs being honor-bound are forbidden from using it.

Spoiler

Name: Shiny Swimsuit
Icon: moon armor (upgrade)
Materials: 2 Leather + 2 Gems + 1 Metal
Customers: Humans, Night Elves
Description:
- Super shiny and sexy 2 piece combat swim suit. Worn by nightelves and human women, sometimes men???

Crate is abandoned... I need products which only appeal to 2 races, not all selling,
otherwise everyone would be making those

Rep has been distributed.....
More ideas welcome

 

[Holla.]

ok ok ive got some more.

Sapphire staff:
Matirials: 2x lumber 1x gems.
Description: A a staff made of wood with a beautifull sapphire attached to the end.
icon: mindstaff
Customers: Humans + Night elves.
Dalaran priests and mage tranies love this item for wieght and cost, and night elven druids like it because of its looks.
Orcs hate this kind of GAY staff crap and undead are to obsessed with claws to worry about it.

Leather Rags:
Mats: 1x lumber 1x leather
Description: Some leather rags, no desinger stuff.
Icon: im not sure about this one
Customers: Undead, Orc
The undead will wear anything that isnt fancy and the orcs dont have any fashion sense so it all works out.
Humans and night elves are pretty stuck up so they wont wear THIS crap.

Garden ornament:
Mats: lumber, metal
Description: An ornament to futhermore, pretty a garden
Icon: dont know about this one either
Customers: human, night elves
Humans and night elves love decorating their gardens, well, the women do anyways.
Orcs and undead say... WTF IS A GARDEN AND HOW CAN I RUN AWAY FROM IT?

Nose ornament:
Bone, metal
An ornament worn in the nose, REALLY fashionable.
Icon: once again, IDK
Cus: orcs, undead
orcs and undead love BONES in their noses, to bad the humans and nightelves dont agree, i bet THATS what started the war

Poison tipped arrows.
poison, metal, lumber
arrows with a deadly poison attached to the head
icon: obviously slow poison
Customers: Nightelves and humans
although humans and nightelves use these a lot, orcs and undead never really got the concept of the "bow"

Bone buckler:
lumber, bones, metal
A Heavy buckler made out of iron and wood, decorated with bones
icon: not sure.
customers: orcs and undead
Undead love these for the bones, while orcs like them for the durability. humans and nightelves think this is to barbarik

 

[The Undaddy]

Never saw any resources so
How about:
Military Outpost(Weapons,Cooked meat (soldiers eat meat,they are going to be big boyz now ))
Weapons attract humans and orcs,while the night elves don't buy them because they make their own (i know ) and the undead don't use them.
The "meat" also attracts humans and orcs,while the undead don't eat,and the night elves don't eat meat?
Feel free to modify
If you don't like the meat thing,you can replace it with mercenaries

@The Undaddy
The resources are fixed, at the moment there are 8 different resources:
GraveYard- Poison, Bone
Forest - Lumber, Leather
Mine - Metal, Gems
Sea - Water, Fish

What I am looking for is products which can be made from these resources and sold to the different races of WC3. However, I want them to only appeal to 2 of the 4 races, not all of them.


@Holla.
Thanks for more input :thup:


@Everyone Else
I still need more ideas if anyone can provide them.
If possible, please put them in the format provided.
Hopefully I can gather more, as I need about 50 in total.


Note:
I am busy at work, so might not update as frequent as I like

Water Coating (Blunt molding)
If possible, the moonwell abil's icon w/o autocast rectange (if possible) (uhh i really ahve no idea, im not too used to undead icons)
6 Water (or 6 bones if undead)
Night Elves, undead (undead uses a variant based on bones)
For the next few attacks, you will deal additonal magical damage that is based on the hero's int. Every attack uses one charge, the water to charge conversion is 2 water to one charge. This item only applies to melle units. (change charge conversion rate to balance)

The undead variant: By mashing bones togeter, the undead have managed to make their weapons more blunt, thus allowing the user a chance to stun and deal extra damage. The chance of this is relitively high, but if it dosent proc it will still use a charge. This variant uses str as a base instead of int

The orcs and humans prefer permanate upgrades to their weapons, so they tend to stay away from such resource draining practices.


-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Spirit Splitter
1Gems 5water
Banish
Night Elves and Humans
Creates a dummy immage of the caster and banishes the caster, Any damage delt to the immage will be redirected back to the caster, but the immage will only take 30% of the damage. The caster on the other hand, being in soul form (banished) gains an attack bonus for all his spells, the drawback is that being in such a form renders him extreamly vuneraable to other magics. The bansihed unit is rendered invisable during this duration.

Because the nightelves and humans exell in magic, they deicded a to find a way to turn themselves into a pure magical entity, allowing them to cast greater magic. The research is incompleat, and this is their incompleat product, a potion that seperates soul and body.
If the reasearch is finished, it will allow the user to actualy turn into an elemental that is both physically immune and magicaly resistant.

The undead and orcs never found the pleasures of being banished and sees this as a foreng idea, therefore they dont touch it.
