Stallions As A Newbie?

Rob Canterbury · Post by **Rob Canterbury** » 17 years ago

First Good luck everyone tonight, this will be a tough week for me I know already.. My best horse is in with some pretty hefty company....

Here'e my question. I see alot of people who have been in the game for less than a year with several stallions. I am assuming it will take me several years to get one as I hope one or two of my babies pan out. So how is it that realative newcomers happen to find themselves with not one but a few. Is there some secret that I don't know about. Stallions are tough to find and when they do pop up they are very expensive.

Just a little confused. Thanks --by the way you guys have been a great help to me on these boards I appreciate it!.

Until recently, you could buy a real life horse that was retiring from the track, the stallions were 10,000 game points each, that's how I got mine. I also bought (then sold) one in a game point auction.

At the end of the last Sim year, some of the older players were slimming down their stallion bands, and gave to or sold cheap several stallions to new players.

Aghhhh I see

So is it impossible to purchase stallions still?..or does the SIM have GP auctions for stallions still?

Thanks for the quick response..

The GP auction is up to The Steward. We'll probably see in a few weeks.

One was given to me, the other I bought for $20k at an auction.
