Hi!

What is the difference between the small merchant vessels and the commerce clippers - other than their combat value? They both have a merchant factor of 10. Are the small ships also able to sail to any trade box or are they restricted in range?

I am too poor and my PC too slow to simply try it.

Also: Is there a possibility to permit your entrepreneurs to automatically buy needed ressources? I feel like in a planned economy when I have to manually import minerals etc. Surely the Krupps should be able to get their business running on their own!

Thanks

They do have a different capacity.
Tried with France and big ones have 750 and small ones 250.
Not sure how that changes when the steam powered ones come out.

No way alas to set up the economy easily.
I find it necessary to micromanage at least for the first few months.

After that, I've usually got it running pretty well on it's own and only occasionally have to tweak it.

This is my AAR on France over at the Paradox Forums.
Hopefully, it will give some ideas:

Thanks for the quick answer! I'll have a look at the AAR as I find the manual somewhat lacking.
