Dreven I have one question. I am a Bothan master smuggler and a Rebel Colonel. I purchased a S.F. Detachment Headquarters last night for 67500fp. I was only charged 60750fp for it. I noticed on previous posts that Bothans get an additional discount. Do you happen to know what this % is? It will really help me in figuring my cost and ultimatley my selling cost on faction perks. Thanks so much for your help.

Heya!
Another Master Smuggler Bothan Rebel Colonel here.
Unless something changed, the additional discount you get as Bothan on rebel perks is 10%.
You need to have on you enough FPs to cover the cost without that discount. The price you see on the recruiter is the Master Smuggler price. You see the Bothan discount only when buying, as you noticed.

Hey great spreadsheet,
but uh....being a bit dense today
i'm a zabrek rebel colonel master smuggler (yes i know me sig says MBH just ain't got round to changing it yet :-P)
now say i wanted to buy a basic trooper and the score on the planet is rebels = 2, imps = 8
this makes the base fp 75
normal losing fp 112
nirmal winning fp 225
also MS base 56
MS losing 84
MS winning 168
now in creds
MS base 4072 creds
MS losing 6109
MS winning 12218
and now we get to the bit which confuses me.
which column am i suppose to look at if buying in fp's or cred's
eg is it base or losing or winning?
or is it base if i buy it, losing if i delegate to a fellow rebel?
please explain cuz me poor brain is hurting now

Buying raw FP hasn't changed. As a Rebel, you're still paying 100k for 1375 FP no matter if you're losing or winning. Then figure in your /del ratio (from the Rank Table) to get what your cpFP actually is if you plan to /del them to another player.

Wait...so when they're LOSING the war they pay less? Or am I misreading? Because all the "Losing the War" numbers are smaller, and I thought, cheaper, which seems backwards to me.

You read it right. A tad like with CoA: the winner get FPs bonus on kills and discount on rank buying but the losers used to get 30% discount on perks.
So yes, you read it right, prices are lower for losers, and more badly they lose the lower prices get. Idea being to help them fight back. There is a thread on the GCW forum arguing that logic of that, someone linked it here, let me see if I can find it.
Edit: here is the Smuggler forum thread giving the link to that thread I am talking about. I figured you might find both interesting. Link
