Welcome to the Trade Grid
Buy low. Sell high. Rule the economy.
Out among the stars, it’s not always about lasers and warcries, some of the galaxy’s wealthiest captains never fired a single shot. They just knew how to make a deal.
Scattered across thousands of sectors lie Trade Ports: independently run outposts eager to take your money, and offer you a chance to make a fortune in return.
These ports buy and sell essential commodities at constantly shifting rates. If you’ve got a nose for opportunity and a ship with cargo space, you’re already halfway to becoming rich.
Smart traders will learn the rhythms of the galaxy, when prices spike, where demand outpaces supply, and how to stretch every last fuel unit to make the biggest haul possible.
You’ll need to:
- Master the supply routes
- Discover the hidden hot spots
- Equip the right trading devices
- And outmaneuver anyone trying to undercut you
The Six Core Commodities:
Water – The foundation of life and trade
Crystal – Rare, beautiful, and always in demand
Metal – Essential for construction and crafting
Carbon – Vital for high-end manufacturing
Oxygen – Not just for breathing — crucial for terraforming
Power – The galaxy runs on it, and it’s never cheap
Whether you’re a peace-loving merchant or a pirate playing the long con, one truth remains:
Credits make empires.
And Trade Ports are where it all begins.
