Easier ways to find out the best traderoutes: Use the SEARCH FUNTION on this forum. There are dozens of threads containing "best" trade routes.

You don't need to go all the way to Solarius. You make less profit on the diamonds from New Berlin but it's significantly quicker.

The classic run is New Berlin to New Tokyo with diamonds and optical chips back to New Berlin. Im sure theres other ones out the however, just look around for prices and be creative

I prefer Cobalt from Mainz Station in Frankfurt to Planet Honshu, and then its either Food Rations or Consumer Goods From Planet Honshu to Mainz. It's a really quick run, only 2 and a half system and u get close to half a million credits if your using a Humpback freighter.

Smuggling gives a good pay off, this is shorter and you dont ened to be good with criminals for this one but hawaii to manhatten. you can make a mil or so in a hour, not too shabby

If you're friendly with the Outcasts go to Malta and get a load of Cardamine go to Manhatten and sell. More than 80000 in one trip (in my Sabre) and most of it can be done through jump holes. The most dangerous part is the Jump gate to Leeds from Tau 29 (I think) after that it's easy and pretty quick. Then get Light Arms from Detroit Munitions and go back to Malta. Wash, rinse and repeat.

you're talking about trade routes . . . well, for me the best ever trade route is looting a wrecks! i am NOT searching them but when i am in sector with 2 or 3 wrecks, why don't loot them?

Wed Mar 16, 2005 3:13 pm by micahd

for me the best is robbing junkers as they come out of rochester base and then taking thier carmadine/artifacts right to manhattian to sell. i think one full trip in the best freighter(capacity wise) is 412000 credits. its good credits and fast but disabling the bases guns and waiting for junkers to come out gets a little boring after a few trips. the junkers and rouges are weak so killing them and disabling rochester is no big deal.

I find that the easiest trade route is this:
Buy Diamonds on planet Cambridge.
Sell them on planet Leeds.
Buy Optronics on planet Leeds.
Sell them on planet Cambridge.

This trade route involves four system jumps there and back and only 2 dockings, and yields 745$ per cargo space. In a dromedary, that's 204 875$ going there and back once! As added bonus, the highest level enemy you're liable to encounter on this one will level 6, so any player could do this run in his sleep.

Cry havoc and let slip the dogs of war!
