Currently Bretonia has cheap crew, and Rheinland and Kusari have expensive.

Bretonia is doing badly in the war with Kusari, and thus should have the most pressing need for crew loyal crew, driving up the price of Bretonian crew. Rheinland is still in an economic slump, so should have plenty of unemployed crew hanging around.

Just suggesting a rearranging of crew prices.

As far as i'm aware, i've never seen anyone ever trading spaceship crew anyway. You can't really make more than like 200 credits per crewman transporting them anyway, no matter where you take them to, as the average price is 1,500 with it dropping to 1,400 at a couple of bases (that i'm aware of) in Bretonia and being about 1,600 max (being the top selling price i've seen for it, i think?). I'm sure someone could point it out if i'm wrong, but there doesn't seem to be any real point in them at present.

I know that wasn't the point of the original post but i thought i would point it out here. As for the point being made regarding prices of spaceship crews in Bretonia and Rheinland, I guess i'd have to agree with that assessment.

Space ship crew are an RP commodity. Ie. they are there for players who wish to appear that they have a crew aboard their massive warships.

exactly

that's why I didn't even include it in my commodity guide

the biggest price difference is 150 :)

I don't mistake it for a profitable cargo, I'm just suggesting a little more... realism in pricing.

It's the little touches that make a good game great.

Good point. I agree.

Was also wondering the basis for the Slaves trade. I guess there are people that collect them in the places they sell cheap and the people way out there buy them, since they can't afford to pay people?

Looking into returning, maybe.

Yeah, balances things up. Good idea.
