I noticed that pretty much all you can do to preserve money between characters are to transfer heirlooms that can be sold and keep residences that you have already bought. It costs a ton of money to get a better ship in this game, will it not ever be possible to transfer your ship as well?

    It strikes me as unlikely- It runs somewhat counter to the roguelike spirit of the game.

    More likely than not your ship is resting on the bottom of the Zee though. Regardless, the Emerald expansion is supposed to contain 'more sophisticated legacies', so you might be in luck.

    I suppose that if you retire there is no reason not to be able to pass on your ship but if you are lost at Zee it wouldn't and shouldn't be possible. I don't know how difficult it would be to code for different endings.

    For myself I am quite happy with the legacy system as it stands. I've just started a new legacy captain and I could have bought a cargo ship but instead used the Heirlooms to buy top grade weapons, secure storage and a light. that left enough in the bank to hire crew and the officers (as they become available) and have enough money to pursue the Magician's story when I get him. It also left enough to restock, repair and reduce terror without worrying too much about how successful I am at getting the more profitable options in the ports. It took a lot of pressure off the early game and none of it feels like a grind and soon I will be able to upgrade to a better ship and that will be the only major expense for this captain.

    Sorry RL means I am not a very active player at the moment. No social actions unless you are prepared to wait and definitely no sparring or other mult-action things.

    No Calling Cards or boxed cats please. Will take dupes on the affluent photographers. Other social invitations welcome. Parabolan Kittens usually available, send me an in-game social action saying you want one and I will get one to you as soon as possible.

    Not my style of play - I would have found that boring, I don't want to be going back and forward between a couple of ports. For me it is not about making money or maximising profits, it is exploration, fighting beasties and seeing what is out there.

    Also I took the veils stat as my legacy and chose the Natural Philosopher as my past, for the mirrors boost . So getting the Iron and Mirror boosts from the things I bought means that combat is easier, having secure storage means that I haven't had Tomb Colonists raiding the supplies. I don't bother with the gamble that is sending Prize ships home so don't need the extra crew to cover that either.

    I will get a bigger ship for the extra hold space so I can start collecting the things for the Zong and I'll probably have enough echoes to do that after one more trip around the Zee.
