Think I am going to pledge the Aurora. I like the idea of never being reliant on crewing someone elses bucket. I may choose to do so but I don't want to have to.

I was originally worried about the ship insurance. My initial impression was that ship insurance was real world cash, but it looks like it can also be purchased with ingame currency. I hope I am correct on that.

Can't wait to launch the SimHQ Navy...or pirates, whatever.
