Yes it does, although the increase is less with every ship added. The limit is however many ships you can get in a fleet (so 20).

Interesting, I had assumed otherwise, I'm already raking in a ludicrous amount with only one in each slot.

Does a trade ship gain more 'experience' and hence generate more income, if it has been trading longer, similar to the merchants in MTW2?

I will be waiting for your guide and with what you have told us so far, it will be very informative.

Thanks a lot for your help. I can't wait to try it with my one Prussian ship. All hail Prussia the Great!

Some of my warships have the coin on there after I parked them in a trade zone once so I guess they can be trade ships too

Does anyone know why I have only three trade slots and thus only allowed 3 trade partners?

are trade ships good for anything other than parking them in trade zones and troop transports?
