Hello,

Checked the damage done to my credit at Riffraff's by Kharma and Dudley, decided I needed to skip town to Fehu. Did a run, made about 29mil, then realized I was really tired and had to get to Sol early the next day for my day job. So had to abandon 5 other delivery missions I had .

Have fun, fly safe.

P.S.: I'm not paying for the damages to Raff's. Drinks fine, blood and guts clean up, no.

Holy smokes!! 40 missions? Dang .... you must be sitting at a station and cycling the BB for quite a while... or there's a trick that I don't know.

Congrats on reaching Marquis status!

Depends on the system, I just made 30m in one trip and am now Duke(Duchess).

This is similar to the runs from Sothis and Robigo (sp?) that were all the rage a month ago.

You accept the missions, then switch to another game mode, and accept more. (Group, take missions, swith to open, accept missions, solo accept missions). Then wait for the BB to reset (about 5-7 minutes) and fill up again. (I also made a private group for myself, so I cycled through 4 modes each time.)

It is easy with an Asp or other ship that can do 80-100 tonnes to get 20+ million of legal haulage missions in about a half hour. Then its a 300-400ly trek back into the heart of the Empire to deliver them. They tend to be all clustered in a 40-50ly bubble in the area around Sak Manka. At least they are for me. Some deliveries will be in systems where you have to run 40-60K ls from the main star so you have to make sure that you check the times. Some are double or triple deliveries in a system or station. Even a Cobra doing 40 tonnes can make a good amount of coin.

Also, since you are loaded with lots of Valuable mission cargo, you will find that you are getting interdicted A LOT more, and lots of those annoying "Follow me so we can talk" NPC's. Do not try this unshielded, or in a ship that can't defend itself. You WILL get shot at quite a bit.

That's more or less the same with what I have been doing lately, with my Asp, but with one big difference...
When I fill my cargo hold with the stuff that I am supposed to deliver, I make a list of my cargo load-out from the right panel and SELL EVERYTHING TO THE LOCAL MARKET!!!

This way I can shave two or three jumps from the return to the bubble trip and escape quicker from the interdicting pirate ships (lighter loads mean greater top boost speed after all!). An additional bonus is that I am not restricted by my cargo space. For example my Asp has an 84T capacity, but I can take missions that in total may be 50% more than this.

So when I start the trip back to the Bubble, I make sure that I have a list of what I need to deliver and how much time I have, and I set course to my most urgent destination. Actually I head to the system nearest to my destination that is selling the requested by the mission goods, buy every ton that I must buy according to my list and then start to do deliveries.

Eg. I have 3 missions requiring 15+15+15 tons of gold for systems A, B and C. Also 2 missions requiring 18+18 tons of silver for systems C and D.
So,I am locating a system selling the above items as close as possible to systems A,B,C and D, buy 45 tons of gold and 36 tons of silver, complete the deliveries. Then I am doing the same for the next item (or items) of my list.

The only limiting factor is time. Try not to take missions with less than 6 hours time limit, and try to not take more than 13-16 missions at once.
The ideal thing is when you get multiple missions for the same station, of course.
