11 Goods and Production is Corsair Cove's economic backbone. The haven runs on more than 50 distinct goods, organised into layered production chains that climb the haven's vertical tiers. The full catalog has not been published; this page collects the publicly disclosed goods and explains the broad chain structure tying raw materials, intermediate goods, and finished products to the buildings and crews that make them. See also City Building, Buildings, and Crew and Population.

66 Limbic and Hooded Horse have repeated the same headline number across announce coverage: more than 50 distinct goods, organised into layered chains. The catalog spans the everyday provisions a pirate crew needs to keep showing up and the specialised pirate paraphernalia that turns the era's atmosphere into mechanics.

1616 Chain Structure
1717  
1818 Each production chain pulls a raw material through one or more intermediate stages and ends at a finished good. Because each stage can sit on a different tier of the cliff face, a chain is both a layout decision and a logistics decision. Iron from a mine on one tier, smelted on a second tier, and pressed into cannons in a foundry on a third tier is one chain that crosses three Vertical Construction tiers and depends on pulley systems and depots at each break to keep flowing.
1919  
2020 The haven's economy is therefore not just about producing enough of each good; it is about routing each chain through the cliff-face geometry without starving the workers or stranding inventory.

2222 Goods That Move the Crew
2323  
2424 Three goods are explicitly tied to the morale system because they are the ones the crew actively consumes:
2525  
2626 Ale routes through taverns and is the fastest lever on cohesion.Tobacco the second named comfort good; sustains morale alongside ale.Clothing a basic provision rather than a comfort; under-supply pulls the meter slowly but persistently.
2727  
2828 Higher worker tiers expect richer provisioning. Specialists drink and dress better than drifters, and the production chains for the upper-tier provisions are usually longer than the basic ones.
2929  
3030 Ship Outfitting
3131  
3232 Goods produced on land also outfit the fleet. Cannons go from foundries to ships; sabers go to boarding crews; spyglasses to navigators; ale and food to the ships' provisions before each Expeditions expedition departs. A fleet at sea is a depletion event: every action burns supplies that have to be re-produced before the next voyage.
