Crew Experience/Replacement

[Legioneod]

So as we all know the price to hire crew is pretty high, I personally like this because it makes crew feel valuable.

My idea is to drop the cost of crew but give them experience and perks kinda like the officers, this way crew would remain valuable to the player.

 

I also think that valuable crew could give you more of an incentive to surrender or flee rather than fight to the death.

If you surrender you would be able to keep your crew and crew exp (or only lose a little). This would give players more of a reason to surrender rather than fight to the death because if you take the time to rank up your crew you really dont want to lose them and start all over again.

 

With that said, you should lose some experience when you lose crewmembers and when you get new ones due to the inexperience of the new members.

 

There should also be a wounding system that way if a crew member is wounded you would be able to have him back in service after some time but if he is killed you would have to hire new crew. This way you would always have to buy brand new crew, you would only have to buy crew to replace the ones that died.

That's why I said wounding should be added.
