Tyhm has a spectacular aura about
Wagon Ho!

Suggestion:
Each business (Bait Shop, Mining Shop, Bow Shop, anywhere you can pay money) has a daily NPC event: a wagon train goes from the business to the bank (yes, this would require a bank being built). Players can sign up to take over for the NPCs at the bank, they are paid 100 gralats if they make it back without being robbed (this would give players an option to make money without equipment, just like the Bomys Pearl diving!) Other players can rob the wagon by hitting the safe 20 times, hitting the wagon cuts the speed to 1/2 temporarily. If they destroy the safe, it blows open and all the money falls out: the wagon explodes, the guards warp back to the bank so they can't collect, and the robbers can run off with the money and maybe a "Thief" flag.
The police attack people with the "Thief" flag...

So here's how it goes.
5 Dustari sign up at the Bank and get on the wagon to Skop's Fish Shop. They take the safe onboard, and halfway back 5 Outlaws/Karakaze/Pirates attack. 3 attack the horses to slow it down so the other 2 can climb onto the wagon and attack the safe. If they blow the safe, they rush off with the money and the Dustari wake up at the bank, where the banker fires them and tells them never to come back; the attackers have to dodge the police until they die/go broke, and can't go to the bank. If the Dustari fend off the attackers long enough, they get 100 gralat each.
What do ya think?
