So, a question. For the discerning, down-on-his/her luck captain who may need to kill/devour the occasional crew member to stay afloat, why do we leave dead crew behind? Every time a crew member dies, I think to myself "That's a bit of food and hunger I could be dealing with right now!" If there could be a way to store dead bodies (With appropriate levels of terror boosting, of course!) for the cannibal captain, that would add a wonderfully morbid touch. Thoughts?
On that note...Why not take that a step further? if Crew = Supplies, and Supplies = Fuel (Under desperate circumstances, of course), why can't I just cut out the middle-man and toss them into the burner to make it the last leg to London? Perhaps a special training at an appropriate port, or a particular chef with..particularly loose morals? When I talk about this game to friends and families, a big selling point is the horrible fates given to the crew (Poor souls...) If I could genuinely throw them into the burner to make it home when I'm stalled out...That would be fantastic.
