# Market and Crafting in Warfront Nations

> Trade resources on the player market and craft tanks, airplanes, and ships from raw materials in Warfront Nations.

## Market

Player-to-player exchange for resources and crafted units.

### Tradable Items

Oil, ore, uranium, diamonds, tanks, airplanes, ships.

### Listing Fields

* Seller
* Quantity and remaining quantity
* Price per unit
* Status (active, sold, expired, cancelled)
* Expiration time

<Tip>
  Watch listing volume before pricing — flooding the same resource crashes the floor fast.
</Tip>

## Crafting

Crafting is **instant**. Inputs are deducted from your storage and the finished unit is added.

| Unit         | Recipe            |
| ------------ | ----------------- |
| **Tank**     | 10 ore + 5 oil    |
| **Airplane** | 8 ore + 3 uranium |
| **Ship**     | 12 ore + 8 oil    |

Crafted units are deployed in [warfare](/guide/warfare) for damage multipliers — tanks for ground, airplanes for air, ships for sea — or sold on the market for a markup over raw material value.

## Build, Sell, or Stockpile?

* **Sell raw** — fastest cash, lowest margin
* **Craft and sell** — higher margin, ties up materials
* **Craft and stockpile** — readiness for upcoming wars
