Merchant Alliance Emissary Table

The Merchant Alliance Emissary Table is an Emissary Table located in front of every Merchant Alliance Trading Company dock on Outposts in Sea of Thieves. These Tables can be used to Represent the Merchant Alliance Trading Company as an Emissary for increased Gold and Reputation rewards.

Mechanics
The purpose of Emissary Tables is to allow Player Pirates and Crews to vote for representing a single Trading Company on the seas as a Trading Company Emissary for greater rewards and Reputation gains. The Merchant Alliance Emissary Table allows crews to raise a Merchant Alliance Emissary Flag and show their allegiance to the Merchant Alliance Trading Company. The Merchant Alliance Emissary Table cannot be interacted with before a Player has purchased the Merchant Alliance Emissary Flag from the Company Representatives for 20000 Gold, or there already is a vote for representation put down. The Emissary Flag is available for everyone who have bought the Rank 15 Merchant Cadet Promotion from the Merchant Alliance Representatives.

Voting at Emissary Tables works identically to voting for Voyages or Tall Tales, with one person putting the decision up for a vote on the Table and other crew members having to place additional votes. Once the majority of the Crew has voted at the Table, the Crew will be notified of becoming an Emissary representing the Merchant Alliance and their Ship will be decked with the Merchant Alliance Emissary Flags. If a Crew wishes to stop being an Emissary, they will have to put it up for a vote on the Table. Player Crews can only represent one Trading Company at a time. As with the Ship Customization Chest, the Crew's Ship has to be nearby to the Table for the crew to be able to vote. This is to prevent Crews from leaving people behind to raise and lower the flag at will. When a vote has been passed, players are able to see small Ship Models on the Table, which shows how many Crews are representing the Merchant Alliance Trading Company on the seas at the present time. It is up for the Players to decide whether to work together or fight.

Rewards
Any Players who have reached above Emissary Grade II with the Merchant Alliance can return their Emissary Flag back to the Trading Company for a generous Gold payout and Reputation increase. This can be done by voting to lower the Emissary Flag at any Merchant Alliance Emissary Table. Note that your Ship has to be nearby for the vote to be possible. This reward is not given for a Broken Merchant Alliance Flag that is received from a sunken Merchant Alliance Emissary Ship.
