State: open

so these guys need their code.

gonna make a few more for various items as time permits over the next few days.

on my "icon to-do list" (please add any that are missing) :
oxen
horses
mules
wagon axle
clothes (separate shirt/blouse and pants/dress - i think these had an effect on the "disease" encounter frequency, although i'm not sure)
boots (boots have decreasing condition until 0 when they "die", with lack of footwear increasing "trail-damage")

possibles (comments?) :
water-bottle/canteen (i would think that water would be as important, if not more important, than food, and scarcer on the trail)
medicine (afaik the only way to deal with the "disease" encounters was through time and food, but again i'm not certain. we could add medicine to address this).

knick-knacks - items that don't have any direct benefit to the player, but may have varying prices from town to town, giving an opportunity to earn some dough.

crates of goods - i envision these as items where the process of purchasing them initiates a fed-ex quest (delivery for dough). maybe they'd be free but have weight, take up valuable inventory space, and only are acceptable at a specific, predeterimined destinations.
