Hello my kin of the mushroom,
A great many tales about the so-called "Iron Republic" remain unknown to mine ears. Having obtained a safe-conduct, what preparations should be taken?
Signed, Neogeo

The iron republic flips the gameplay upside down, throws it out the window, proceeds to stab it seven times with knives made out of candles, throws it down a well, flips that well upside down, has it be half devoured by the eater of chains, shows it what the thunder had to say, throws it back and forth between the neath and parabola, puts it on a train to hell, snatches it up and locks it in the royal betlehem for five years, drowns it in the unterzee, Throws it off the roof of the bazaar and THEN spits it back out in your face. Thats really the most accurate description i can think of.

Firstly, I would recommend you check your sanity at the door. This will make what comes next much less painful.
The Iron Republic is a place where no rules are fixed. It's a giant, choose-your-own-adventure laid out like a series of greased, non-Euclidean chutes. I honestly don't know what I could say to prepare you. Just... prepare for a zee voyage. And try to keep all your organs on the inside.

It's definitely true I saw it a few days ago (and no you can't buy those)

The image doesn't seem to want to appear for me. What is it about the Iron Republic's shop that's so shocking?

Does the Iron Republic selling fuel and supplies for 10 and 20 echoes imply that the Sunless Sea prices for everything actually correspond with the Fallen London ones? That's always irked me.
However, it irks me more that I can't actually buy the damn supplies and fuel. I'd like to have some for my collection.

I may go back after Sackmas.

If your ambition takes you to the Iron Republic you will need a few things. Maybe some one following that ambition can tell you exactly what.
If you just go for pleasure I can't think of anything except that the Iron Republic is very strange so maybe Brass Rings, a Gang of Hoodlums, a spouse and high quirks might be helpful but don't worry too much if you haven't got them. Do not worry about the menaces, they jump all over the place but you won't die or go mad and there is a way of reducing them before you leave.
Have fun.

Don't forget to drop by Hunter's Keep to pick up a Stone-Tentacle Key! You'll need a Portfolio of Souls too, I think.
Edit: 5 of them.

There are a number of items and qualities you can get outside of the Iron Republic that influence what happens there... but it's impossible to say if said influence is positive or negative.
And I notice your Ambition isn't Nemesis, but for the sake of anyone reading this that is: I'd recommend waiting until the Ambition storyline sends you there. When you're at that point, you get an option that makes navigating the Republic a bit easier.
