need loan for transport

[Thurgret]

This is the reply I gave in the last thread, in which you begged for money for a gunboat:

Collect scrap metal at Pittsburgh with your Starflier until you can afford a Rhino. Collect scrap with your Rhino until you can afford a Camara or else a Dromedary. Collect scrap with your Camara/Dromedary until you can afford a Mammoth. A Mammoth costs about 10 million, has 2,200 cargo. Run boron from Pittsburgh to Thames Outpost, mining machinery from Thames to Graves, gold from Graves to Fort Bush, consumer goods from Fort Bush to Pittsburgh, until you can afford a Firefly, which costs about 40 million. Go to Cambridge, buy a Firefly. Continue to trade until you can afford a 100 million container transport. Join a corporation and buy a container transport. Stick with that and buy all the ships you like, or continue to save up and buy a 5k cargo transport (personally I like the Shire far too much... it can fend off a gunboat/a poorly flown bomber).
