just to clarify did the options look like
or was it missing the 2nd half "Cheap Shop" / "Better Treasure"?
Damn... I don't remember anymore :/
I don't think I saw them like this. I remember connecting in my mind "gain 1 wound = block sand flow" and expected something to happen, so I don't think I saw the cheap shop part.
This said, I remember I connected the "100+ strength" requirement to the cheap shop, while here I see it is connected to the "100+ def" one.
If I find this event again I'll make sure to take some screenshots of it
