Is there a thread about officer pay? I came across a surrendered ship and boarded her. She turned out to be English and the captain surrendered to me. This is all well and good, but his monthly pay is $14,000 a month and he is breaking me. He is up to level 7 or so now so a high level is not the cause. To give some perspective, Artois Voisey is around $2,400 and I am around $3,500 a month.
