Miniature Trading

Taking a cue from woelf, this is a list of the essential crew types for each faction. These are pretty much all crew common to the 5 main factions which I would expect to see at least one or two of in nearly every fleet, day in, day out, so anyone new to the game would want to get their hands on at least a few of these. (This list will also help me boil down specififc crew choices for other nations as I progress in my analysis of each major faction. )

Some factions(read Pirates) have more than one of each type mentioned, and some have the same crew with minor variations on a given type, such as Captain Charles Richard, for instance. I included Hermione with the other 4pt "world-haters", since England only have captain crew with that ability, whereas the Pirates, although having a few crew - like Captain Barbossa - with it, have Bruce Grey, who fits in with the rest as a non-captain.

Fiore earns a place with the major factions' cancelers since, as an Ex-Patriot, he can be used as an alternative for any of them, really, depending on the depth of one's collection.
