<p>According to the rules: <a href="http://www.zmangames.com/uploads/4/7/1/7/47170931/en-stone-age-ext_rules.pdf" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://www.zmangames.com/uploads/4/7/1/7/47170931/en-stone-age-ext_rules.pdf</a> </p>

<blockquote>
  <p>A player may:</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li><p>Trade only once his marker has moved off of space 0 of the    merchant track.</p></li>
  <li><p>Only trade in order to acquire a Civilization card or Building    tile.</p></li>
  <li><p>Trade the resources and jewelry of their choice.</p></li>
  <li><p>Improve his trading ability by advancing on the merchant track,    allowing for  2 to 1 ,  1 to 1 , and even  1 to 2  trades. </p></li>
  <li>Trade    even if he did not place two figures at the merchant this round. </li>
  <li>Important: A player may only trade once per round.</li>

<p>Just played our first game of Stone Age with the expansion and we have a question.</p>

<p>All the examples show a single use of the trading ability.  Does that mean that you are limited to a single trade per turn or can you do multiples but only towards a single card/hut?</p>

<p>So, can you trade 14 wood for 7 gold on a 1-7 hut using the lowest level of trade?  You would then be able to score 7*6 (42) points off of 14 wood.</p>

<p>Please help me understand the limits of trading in the Stone Age Expansion.</p>

Just played our first game of Stone Age with the expansion and we have a question.

All the examples show a single use of the trading ability. Does that mean that you are limited to a single trade per turn or can you do multiples but only towards a single card/hut?

So, can you trade 14 wood for 7 gold on a 1-7 hut using the lowest level of trade? You would then be able to score 7\*6 (42) points off of 14 wood.

Please help me understand the limits of trading in the Stone Age Expansion.
