Just travelled to LHS 2637 to buy an A7 Power Plant for my Python, 51M !!! Now back home doing trade runs and mission to recoup the cost. Next target is to upgrade my thrusters to A Grade.

I have got the impression that not all online friends are shown in the galaxy map, may that be the case?


Not sure how many friends you have, but I assume they all show up fine. I've had about 50 on at once and they all where shown.

I want to try out a Dropship, but I can't advance in my Federation ranking. Not sure if I'm doing something wrong or what... >_>

Finished my last bounty hunting run and ... boom! Finally got my Clipper. Those large turrets.... *hugs the ship*
Now time to begin upgrading it.

i finished the CG at Nahet and then quickly went over to Mictlan to try and catch the tail-end of that one. i signed up, earned a quick million just to give me *something* to contribute, went back to the RES for more and... server restart. i hope there's still something left when i return.

Set about a RES in my new Vulture last night and, I definitely like this ship!! Shields didn't get close to dropping, took out a couple condas, federal dropship, and an assortment of adders, cobras etc (maybe popped a few sidewinders too). Also, finally did some of the Fed rep missions as I want to get the Sol permit.

Ah, that's just answered a question I had. I noted from looking at the galaxy map that I need a permit for Sol and I wasn't sure how to get one. But now I know: do Fed missions to get my rep up. :)

Returning to civilization 12000LY to go, made a school boy error, canopy now not going to last trip home we suspect, 16000Ly worth of data about to go up in style, not going to self destruct, ever the optimist, going to see how far i get before Darth Vader appears for his 7.5 miute cameo, then do it all again apart from the school boy error we hope, and no alcohol was involved in making this sad story . oh well was only 2 weeks off my life hahaha.


Well i made it back as of this change to the post, 0% hull integrity cost just under 532,000 to fix, and of course took slightly longer than i planned. will sell the exploration data tomorrow thats me signing off for the day

Duct tape!!! Don't tell me you forgot to pack the Duct Tape?

I've heard of people making it back from the distant reaches with canopies all cracked - you might be ok - I hope you are.

Heading back to Wong Guin after the CG is finished that early. The 600K are nice but a CG hunt with others is nicer ...

On the pro side, did a donation to Frontier called "paint Job shopping" and have now a beautiful red Blood Serpent coat for my Vulture as well.

EDIT mehehe ... was just interdicted by 2 eagles, was REALLY annoyed, flatted the first and when the second did a runner, caught up with the nible nimble flyer and fryed him out of the ... space ... with one single slow moving plasma bolt. Well, that was fun.

@Rouge Trader how come?

Finger trouble caused Thrusters to switch off, caused emergency drop. My fault so need to look at my bindings and have ui select and next panel away from each other.

No duct tape, super glue etc, still flying :-)

doing 1000ly in about 35 mins includes fuel scooping, not sight seeing or collecting data, if the game gods like me should be back in about 6 hours to nearest landing pad, or a lot sooner , always seems to happen on a return leg that i somehow screw the ship up, who says the game is boring
