    Trade Ships?

    I was wondering how many trade ships people have and how much they are paying for them?

    I currently have 57 and my next ship will cost me 453,565 gold at a discount due to the Temple of Hermes on my island.

    Just hit 30. Maybe could use 6-8 more, but 57? That's some serious pillaging!

    Yep, I think my largest haul so far was upwards of 60k gold and 19 ships worth of goods. I get a lot of midrange as well. I'm constantly pillaging about 9 to 12 inactive colonies at a time. The salvage business is risky though... You never know if they might come back from the grave to bite you.

    Re: Trade Ships?

    Wait what does it mean when a player goes inactive? Is that the account is being deleted thing or just the guy went on vacation for awhile?

    and 25 boats myself, havent been attacked or attacked yet so I'm all good so far, been fine just trading...

    Inactive and Vacation modes are totally different. Inactive is when your account is going to be deleted within so many days if you don't log back in.

    58 and counting... The next ship will cost me 477,149 gold. I can't imagine how much the 120th ship will cost. Wow!

    All,
    I have thirty six, but I am looking to expand towards fifty or so. I send out close to twenty pillaging raids a day and there are times when I am out of trade ships.

    45 for me.

    I don't pillage often either. I think I have them just to satisfy my e-peen.

    (That, or the fact that I like to keep my gold score under 1 mil so I'm not a great pillaging target!)

    38, like Foxoq I invest my money to keep a low profile. I also seem to do a lot of resource shifting so its nice to have a ton of boats zooming around and still have enough for a raid, action points permitting of course.

    Well I wouldn't go that far... 29 ships is a decent fleet.

    Woot! Halfway point reached! 60 ships!


    Next ship -> 528,327 gold.
