$$ !!!Amazing trade route !!! $$
Ok, this trade route has already been proposed (credits to Chris) but I really wanted to insist on this route !! It is great ! It takes 4m30s (with docking and repairs).
It works in SP after the campaing (could also work near the end of the game when you are at New Berlin). I did not test it in MP, but I heard it might not work since the sigma-13 jumphole isnt working... thats what Ive heard.
This route was performed in 4m30s (back and forth) including docking, buying/selling and repairs using a Humpback. Could also be done in a Rhino for all I care
Using Sigma-13 Jump Hole (Around E5)
New Berlin (Consumer Good (150$)) -> Yanagi Depot (330$)
Yanagi Depot (Cardamine (250$)) -> New Berlin (1 349$)
Total profit: 255 000$ (254 750$ to be exact) in one round.
Total time: 4m30s
Very short, very efficient ! You can use a rhino and buy a humpback when you get the money. Each time you deliver a cardamine cargo using a humpback you gain one level, so I got to level 38 fast.
Be careful: Hessians will wait for you when you exit the jumphole when you are coming from Sigma-13. Sometimes they are only two, but sometimes there are 8. They shoot like Lucky Luke, just afterburn and you will get to the trade line (about 3K away) in time. Use shield batteries and nanobots if needed.
There are also some Corsairs near Yanagi Depot but as soon as I got good shields and weapons on my humpback they let you alone.
It's a bit risky at the beginning since Hessians and Corsairs are after you, but like Chris mentionned, if you have good running skills and know how to use the afterburn efficiently (best way is to press/release, press/release ... if you keep afterburning all the way theyll shoot at you easily....)
Hope it helps...
I think this is the best trade route of all...
Again, credits to Chris who provided this route !
