			    Freelancer Trade Routes


I'm not really that interested in trade, but I came across this route when I
was looking for the most convenient place to sell the Artifacts from the
Graveyard of Innocents wrecks (deeming Planet Manhattan too far away).

Buy Alien Organisms at Freeport 9, Omicron Theta;
take jump hole to Omega-41;
take jump hole to Omega-5;
take jump hole to Cambridge;
sell at Cambridge Research Station.

Buy Gold at Planet Cambridge;
take jump hole to Omega-5;
take jump hole to Omega-41;
take jump hole to Omicron Gamma;
sell at Tripoli Shipyard.

Buy Water at Planet Crete;
take jump hole to Omicron Theta;
sell at Freeport 9.

Profit (assuming 5 organisms perish and not considering radiation damage):
VHF:	   174170
Humpback:  647750
Dromedary: 713525

Alien Organisms can be bought cheaper at Ruiz Base, Omicron Beta, but I'm
not sure if the additional losses by perishment and radiation are worth it.
Gold can be bought cheaper at Planet New London or Trafalgar Base, New
London, for one extra hop; or Battleship Hood, Graves Station or Arranmore
Base, Dublin, for two extra hops (via New London; Arranmore/Tripoli is the
best for Gold).

Profit, using Ruiz and Arranmore (assuming 10 organisms perish):
VHF:	   204210
Humpback:  780750
Dromedary: 860825


Another trade route suggested by DarkArchon:

Not quite as profitable, but much easier and not illegal.

Buy Diamonds for $396 at Planet New Berlin.

New Berlin -> Frankfurt -> Sigma-13 -> Honshu -> New Tokyo

Sell Diamonds on Planet New Tokyo for $1650, buy Niobium for $512.

Repeat your path in the opposite order.

Sell Niobium on The Ring (right next to Planet New Berlin) for $1440, go
pick up more Diamonds, repeat.

Like I said, not quite as profitable, but you can damn near do it in a
freighter with no shields and one gun, it's a cake walk and shouldn't take
more than 15 minutes at the most.  Round trip in a Humpback I think your net
profit is a bit above half a mil.
