Well, if it had military hull in a combat zone, it makes sense. I hear that's kind of new.

Good night last night. Finally earned my novice rating from the Pilot's Federation & delivered enough fortification material to get my Level 2 rank in the next PP cycle. Got blown up once but that's par for the course.

Checked out the high CZ in Exioce though the war is over and saw a strange sight. Crimsom Electronic ships and the #1 faction ships were just milling about not firing. Not a single Order ship in sight.

The faction tab was locked and labelled "Ceasefire". Very eerie spectacle.

Finished off the media runs for the Blue haired one.

Got Lady Jayne outfitted with 6A Prismatics and decided to head to the war. On my way out off Azarael met CMDR Telengo who kindly informed me that the war was over. :(

Went to Exioce anyway and tried out the Low CZ there just to test out the shields. Can't say I'm overly impressed. Gave up a fair bit of jump range to go from 5A Pris to 6As, not to mention cargo space. But will stick with it for the next week or so, run missions, bounty hunt, CZ and short distance exploring and see how this goes.

Have fun, fly safe. o7

Just made it to Baron with the Empire tonight (Been sitting at Lord forever). This grind is going to be the death of me.

On the plus side, it seems like Shadow Delivery missions from anywhere other than Robigo don't attract any attention at all from the cops, so I've made a lot of money tonight. So some of my complaining about smuggling post-1.5 may be specific to Robigo missions.

Also made a lot of exploration and bounty money. I'd have half a dozen pirates waiting to pounce at half the stars I jumped into tonight. Didn't mind the combat, and certainly not the money, but I failed some courier missions I stacked onto the delivery missions because I didn't have time to jump 260ly AND keep fighting off pirates.

Patrolled Azrael space, hunting for wabbi....pirates for a OoM mission I got in Exioce. Win-win situation, apart from the pirates that I blew up. Naturally I left the OoM-wanted ships alone.

Easily did a hundred Empire and Federation missions in a 15 hour session. I went from 48% in Knight to 4% in the Lord Rank and from 30% to 78% in Midshipman rank.

Also got my net worth up to 145 million and still have 2,200 merits in my PP rank 4 after the new cycle start :)

I seem to spend 80% of my time in my Asp Explorer. Its set up as a heavily armed and armored transport. Fire power is 4 small gimbaled pusle lasers and 2 medium gimbaled multi-cannons. It uses military grade composite with a cargo cap 110 tons.

The last 5% 'til Elite is maddening.. Keep thinking "Why isn't it moving? Are the servers bugged?"
