well i put dortmund for the IMG traders (IMG shipping to their allies is inRP) since there is only a loss of $90 credits in total which isnt a real loss but yeah if your a RepEx you should goto the Ring instead


2nd route: wasnt sure about it being RP for Gateway but thought i would mention it anyway since they are a Bretonian shipping company

Hello Community

dear Ian, good run, but only for traders friendly or neutral to bretonia, nothing good for kusarian traders for example
but i have another one in bretonia, think is a good one for rp, especial for bowex

RouteA:
Omega49
Lanzarote Base - buy Gold for $360
Planet Gran Canaria - sell Gold for $380 / buy Deuterium for $375
Tau29
Freeport 6 - sell Deuterium for $1799 / buy Xeno Organism for $1000
Tau31
Planet Harris - sell Xeno Organism for $1300 / buy Prisoners for $699
Newcastle
Gateshead Station - sell Prisoners for $1200
Lancaster Trade Center - buy Optronics for $1007
New London
Planet New London - sell Optronics for $1375 / buy Light Arms for $406
Omega49
Lanzarote Base - sell Light Arms for $1190

That makes with an Adv. Train an all in all profit of $16.985.000

RouteA1:
Omega49
Lanzarote Base - buy Gold for $360
Planet Gran Canaria - sell Gold for $380 / buy Deuterium for $375
Tau29
Freeport 6 - sell Deuterium for $1799 / buy Xeno Organism for $1000
Tau31
Planet Harris - sell Xeno Organism for $1300 / buy Prisoners for $699
Newcastle
Gateshead Station - sell Prisoners for $1200 / buy Light Arms for $350
Omega49
Lanzarote Base - sell Light Arms for $1190

That makes with an Adv. Train an all in all profit of $15.425.000

RouteA2:
Omega49
Lanzarote Base - buy Gold for $360
Planet Gran Canaria - sell Gold for $380 / buy Deuterium for $375
Tau29
Freeport 6 - sell Deuterium for $1799 / buy Niobium for $377
New London
Kensington Station - sell Niobium for $903
Planet New London - buy Light Arms for $406
Omega49
Lanzarote Base - sell Light Arms for $1190

That makes with an Adv. Train an all in all profit of $13.670.000


And then, for my Bretonian Bowex Trader, i have also a route through the Omegas:

Route B: (IMPORTANT: Dont sell the VIP's at Kurilen if you are working for a Bretonian Company)
Cambridge
Cambridge Resaerch Station - buy VIP's for $4850 (for less at the Planet Cambridge possible)
Munich
Planet Nuremberg - sell VIP's for $10.000 / buy Engine Parts for 276
Omicron Theta
Freeport 9 - sell Engine Parts for $1125 / buy Xeno Organism for $580
Cambridge
Cambridge Resaerch Station - sell Xeno Organism for $1800

That makes with an Adv. Train an all in all profit of $15.495.000

I think of my daily experiences on this routes, they can both be good roleplayed and gives you a good profit.


And now to the "OORP"-Trade-Route-Cryers...
Even the Diamond-Niobium-Run isnt such "OORP" when you use the Lanes and not the JumpHoles.
I did and still doing this run:

Planet New Tokio - Station Leipzig - Yokohama Shipyard hauling Niobium to Rheinland and High Temerature Alloy back to Kusari.
(Route is: New Tokio - Honshu - Sigma13 - Frankfurt - New Berlin - Dresden)

I will find more profitable, good rplayable routes.

Regards.

Quote:Till an alternative is found for the OORP routes, IE an RP route that is just as good, stop going on about how OORP they are.

By "as good" I think you mean "as lucrative" - well there are plenty. They probably take longer to generate serious creds, but what's the harm in that. I mean the money is only a key to other things, which arent all that important anyway. The mineral run from New York to Leeds and back is fine; as is the food from cambridge to colorado and then back with....forget...slaves? :P

Yamato: nice to see you're varying things; watch you dont get caught smuggling light arms out of Bretonia. Pretty pirate free route, though.

These are great Akina, I use them aswell, beside my BMM trader that does less profitable routes...

The Niobium run is second per tonne, in cold hard cash you get per time required the best one around... but there are many routes that come within a fraction of it's profitability that take you to great places, where pirates arn't on every jumphole, and a rtader can prosper in good RP...

I'd be concerned about a couple of things here, in RP terms:

1. You're suggesting a Bretonian company should ship a commodity banned in Bretonia. You can bet this would make for political trouble and rather...complicated RP. What route would Bowex take to the Taus? Certainly not through Bretonian space.

2. You're also suggesting a Bretonian company - the one supplying the Bretonian military - should trade through the Taus, controlled by Kusari. Again, some complicated RP.

Right.

Anything I say is not intended as offensive, and to try and deliberately misinterpret it as such would be an attempt at trolling via misrepresentation.

It's not a conspiracy, it's localised bias. They're not intelligent enough to form a conspiracy.

And it is trading from a Zoner Planet to a Zoner Freeport back to a Zoner Station.
I dont care if the Tau Systems are controlled by the Kusari Forces. Kusari didnt own them right now and Zoners at the Freeport also want their Stuff, in exchange for Xeno Organism and Terraforming Gases for the development of Planet Harris.
Thanks for that hint with the Light Arms, I looked that up, you are right; so wether i should find another good for hauling or i should find a way to transport this anyways...
I have to contact the BAF therefore...

(I wish to transport that Light Arms anyways, Zoners of Lanzarote Station asked for them, maybe they like to be prepared cause of the Corsair-presence there; i dont know, iam just a trader...
maybe they sell this stuff to the corsairs after i dropped it and gain my money,... I need to be more suspicious about the Zoners)

Right.

i think he mainly means the Cambridge to New Berlin route as it goes through Cambridge, Omega 3 + 7 where Corsairs hang around

If you want to make a GMG trader you can run Plutonium from Ogashawa to Lanzarote, then Deuterium from Gran Carina to Honshu (then consumer good to Ogashawa for a little extra profit).

I personally find the asteroids in Omega to be better flying than Tau-31 - and the odd pirate adds a bit of spice!
