Crew

Hi, total noob here, but loving the game.

One question though, I played the tutorial, watched the training Vids and read the long FAQ page, but I can't find anywhere what crew effects are.

I see they have loyalty and skill that both go 0-100 I think. But what so they actually do? And what happens with disloyal crew? Do they still all your money and go AWOL when your on a planet or something lol?

What I really want to know is what benefit does a navigator or an engineer have?

Hi Apache, a crew can be a big help in surviving. A GOOD navigator can help you NOT jump into planets and such. A Engineer will help fix damage to your ship at a faster rate. A Science officer can tell you a little about systems and sector's you jump into. A crew member of lower loyalty is more likely to jump ship when you dock than one with higher loyalty just as one with higher skill will be more effective than one at a lower skill level.

Hi Apache, welcome to the game and forum.....Hope to see you out there some time!....

And yes your crew will go AWOL and steal your money if they have low loyalty....

:P

Hi Apache, and welcome!
Very detailed info about crew can be found here:
http://www.starwraith.com/evochronlegen ... de.htm#210

(it's for a previous Evochron game, but likely still applies; and if figures are somewhat different, it prolly doesn't matter that much, but gives you the gist of it, which I figure is what you were looking for in the first place).

Thanks for the detailed answers, that answers all questions bar one: how often do your crew get paid?

Im from England not Ireland, so not it wasn't me I'm afraid, I guess its not a very origonal name

I think it is every 5 minutes or so. I have not had a crew for a long time but iirc it was around 5 or 10 minutes or I could be having another Yoda moment...
