@Tagan, Ship Points and Profit Factor are basically one and the same. It comes into play more if we had chosen<br/>a route for the warrant of trade.<br/><br/>We'd get a certain amount of ship points and a certain amount of profit factor. With the ship points we'd use it<br/>to create a ship, then convert any remaining points into profit factor. The difference being, we could never convert<br/>profit factor into ship points.<br/><br/>For your choice of ships, I'd go with the Viper class. Keep ships that can move as fast as we can so we dont have to worry<br/>about losing one if we gotta disappear quick.<br/><br/>@Glyphstone, The twistcatcher searches through the lowdeckers and bilge scummers for mutation and deviancy<br/><br/>ooh, choices...
