Last night I discovered that it is not just me that lands weird.

Here is a pic of an NPC Python (No its not me, I sold my Python to get the Connie) as I saw it landed, and how it looked after the Landing pad dropped and rotated back into position for takeoff. Once it was released from the landing pad, it popped into a level position.

The good news :

Wolf has spotted a high intensity CZ at O'Rourke colony in Exioce.

The bad news :

Crimsom Electronics has a capship on their side - a majestic class interdictor

I think we're going to need help :shock:

Wow, that was lucky! You’d better run and buy a lottery ticket quick! :)

Can you actually take a cap ship down?

We"re going to find out soon :)

Meanwhile, Xebeth has updated the General orders - winning the Exioce war has become the priority though commanders who still want to beef up OOM's influence in Azrael are free to do so.

viewtopic.php?f=61&t=3478

Note that for small ships, Reamy Dock at Apathaam has decent outfitting and a surprising number of ships in the shipyard. Obligatory photo below, I"m so proud of how my tiny Dbx is doing in the fight :D

Lots of missiles flying about in the battlefield and the capship is targetting opposing ships fighting for the Order with PA's even at far distances.

I've seen capital ships routed before. Do they come back?

I don't think so - FD is loading the dice against independent factions battling in Imperial systems but not that much. Small player factions are now going to have a really hard time maintaining their grip on Imperial & Federal systems - every time there's a war I suspect that an Imp or Fed capship is going to appear.
