Talk:Hands of a Killer (Chronicle)
From Backstage Lore Wiki
6,314 dead in a Battleship loss. Ship losses are common; a Capsuleer conducting individual interviews would leave no time for other business. No, the ship, corporation, or station would have to have some human resources recruiting function to provide grist for the capsuleer ship mill.
Admittedly, this particular chronicle is a key piece of lore that confirms the presence of ships' crew; that a pilot would deign to speak with an individual applicant poses other questions.
