Plan your next HIROTONFA’s American Revolution Smuggler session
Our independent guide breaks down the five core pillars of HIROTONFA’s American Revolution Smuggler, offering observations that let you compare each system and notice how they intersect without promising undocumented bonuses.
01 / THE GUIDE
Price Trend Tracking
Select a commodity and record its price at three consecutive ports. Note any blockades or battles mentioned in port news, then decide whether to hold or sell based on the observed trend.
- Watch your wage and tax totals each trip to avoid unexpected debt.
- Upgrade the cargo hold early if you want to transport larger shipments.
02 / THE GUIDE
Crew Wage Comparison
Run two short voyages: one where you pay full wages and another where you cut wages. Compare the morale values shown after each trip to see how wage choices appear on the screen.
- Check for news of blockades before setting sail to anticipate supply changes.
- Avoid selling massive amounts of one commodity at a single port.
03 / THE GUIDE
Alignment Effect Log
Play one voyage as a Patriot and another as a Loyalist. Record which ports greet you and which send hostile ships, highlighting how alignment reshapes access.
- Match dialogue to a character’s described personality to improve relationship progress.
- Balance trading activities with dates to keep both profit and romance advancing.
04 / THE GUIDE
Dialogue Outcome Test
Pick a state‑chan and try two different dialogue choices on separate dates. Observe any changes in their reactions.
- Consider which faction offers the most favorable ports for your current cargo.
- Switching alignment may alter which ships pursue you on future voyages.
05 / THE GUIDE
Combat Roll Review
Engage a low‑level privateer and a sea monster. Log the dice results for each roll, then compare the risk versus reward of each encounter.
- Observe the type of opponent before rolling to gauge risk.
- Consider saving resources for higher‑risk encounters such as sea monsters.
