Crew Management FAQ

Agree on more "authentic" crew mix ancient46, but in doing a 15% to 33% crew rotation (which I believe was historically the norm) I find I can barely keep adequate crew so the auto promote (like in v1.4) tended to work better for me in that regard. I've had to rotate fewer guys out because of the way v1.5 does promotions, and still have to make allowances...

For example, to have a senior LT(jg) or a LT ready to assume duties as XO you need to "grow them yourself" from Ensign...in v1.4 you could take a jg or LT from the "pool" if you were willing to pay the renown, here in v1.5 it is not even an option. So, I find I need to watch that aspect.

Like you I don't want a crew of supermen either.
