 Star Trades Help Manual

Welcome to Star Trades!
Upon the death of a distant relative, you have inherited a fledgling trading company in the Star Traders Association (STA). Using the last of your meager savings, you have purchased a single cargo ship suitable for trading commodities between various Star Systems.

Galactic trade requires finding Star Systems where commodities are produced and sold cheaply, transporting them to Star Systems where they are prized, and selling them at a profit. Illegal goods can also be traded, but the penalties for smuggling are high, so it's best to stick to legal trading.

Your little trading company is ready for you to take the reins. You will be both the Chief Operating Officer and the Chief Financial Officer. You have but a short time to build it into a Galactic Trading Empire and prove yourself to the Kentaran Galaxy by being listed in the Historical Archives for all time.

Days To Retirement marks the number of days until your mandatory retirement by the STA. There is no way to circumvent your retirement, so use the time you have to make your company as succesful as it can be! After 60 Galactic Days, you will be forced into mandatory retirement by the STA, so you'd better get to work -- your one little cargo ship awaits your orders! Good luck!
