The "Dynaverse" campaign resembles an adventure in which the captain of the ship (the player) earns prestige by successfully completing missions.

I want to live a life of luxury, and that is impossible on what a ship's captain earns.

According to the Air Line Pilots Association, a typical captain is 47 years old with 20 years of service, earning about $150,000 annually.

And the captain, who is responsible for the $72 million ship, the $12 million cargo and the safety of the crew, earns $82,000 a year.

A senior captain can earn more than $450,000; many are British or Australian expatriates.

A captain with 12 years' experience flying a Boeing 777, the airline's flagship, now earns $279,000 a year in salary and benefits.

RPG-elements also exist in the game, in that captains earn points from missions and are able to level up.

In most new restaurants, however, captains earn slightly more than waiters but still depend on tips for much of their income.

Great captains earned their reputation not just for laying brilliant plans, but for still being able to find victory after those plans began to fall apart.

A first-year co-pilot made about $16,000 a year, and a captain with at least 12 years of experience earned $69,000.
