Just realised that the mechanic officer is also found with the "surge in starcraft developments, many upgrades available" rumor.

Oh I found them. Templar is with "Deadly rouge traders cleared everythng of value" rumor and bounty is with "treasure hunter fleet" rumor. I have a question about the pilot officer though. I know you need 10 per cent of your hold to be spice for the pilot to get a bonus. But is there any benifit of having more than 10 per cent of your hold spice?

No -- after that u want to get more skills or other stacking upgrade bonuses.
For example -- Hyperion Bridge for Pilot

Captain's current cargo is displayed in the Exchange and the Status > Cargo menu.

But does the weapons cabinet spybank or water fuel tank increase your hold? Because they allow you to carry more stuff but the official hold number stays the same  I'm sorry if I ask so many questions, its just with a game like this there are so many things that aren't clear |

If you say so ...
The Cargo Hold does not change because the ship's overall cargo size does not change.
The "Tank" upgrades provide dedicated storage that is preferred to the general Cargo hold.

I think he meant the advanced bridge system (interior upgrade), also sail command probe (armament upgrade). They both say in the description "Provides pilot bonus. Stacks with pilot officer". Advanced bridge system also gives a combat bonus.

Are there any other tricks to finding the templar officer? I just spent a couple hours looking for the rumor but I cant find it.

For the templar, you just need the "Deadly rouge traders cleared everythng of value" rumour. Be patient - a lot of the time when I'm looking for a specific rumour there won't be any, then a few pop up at once.

Thought I should add this in to the thread as there isn't anything about the new officers. Templar Found in wildernes zone of a planet with "deadly rouge traders" rumor - Boarding Bonus (upgrade bonus, HP Damage bonus, and very special bonus vs. Aliens) - Higher pay for assassination (I do not know if cory meant better pay for assassinate contracts or for destroying ships) - Wilderness Landing Bonus - 20k bonus for destroying alien ships Does not have a hold bonus BH Found in wilderness zone of a planet with "treasure hunter fleet" rumor - bonus for capture contracts. (I don't know what Cory meant by this. Possibly increased pay?) - Boarding bonus (sustained, leads a second attack squad) Also, some things that were not mentioned about other officers: Political Officer warns about trade embargoes. Political Offier tells you when you have been decieved in a non-bounty contract. Pilot Officer gives a minor wf consumption bonus, an urban landing bonus, avoids radiaton storms, and provides a contract bonus for pasage (I do not know what cory meant by this. Prehaps increased pay for delivery contracts?) NOTE: Pilot does NOT increase stealth, only pilot. Military Officer provides a blockade bonus (I don't know if Cory meant he increases pay for blockade contracts or provides a bonus to the actual blockading action),tells you when the captain's health is low at urban zones, tels you when you've been decieved by a bounty contract, and provides boarding bonuses --- does boarding transitions, soaks moral hits, and increased upgrade efficency Spy provides a survelence bonus (I don't know if cory meant increased pay for surveilence contracts or provides a bonus for the surveilence action First mate also provides advice about moral (e.g. saying the crew needs rations and fuel or that they need some time in the spice hall at urban zones). First mate provides a navgation bonus (skill test/dice rolling to determine how the sector move goes. For more info go on this link startradersrpg.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=updates&action=display&thread=2400). |
