Hello all, new guy reporting !

I am currently travelling back and forth between Neche and NLTT21088 Systems (Ms. Winters domain area) with my Asp. My Homebase is Dobrovolski Ring in NLTT21088, which features everything except a Shipyard (pretty neat for a Outpost).

My routine is as follows: loading up on Cargo (of the Illicit kind, naturally :evil: ) and Pirate killing missions for Neche. Once i have enough, jump over, deliver the goods, then to the Nav Beacon and do the kills, then back to Descartes Station in Neche (Security ? Got scanned once, never since, and i've been there for quite a while now). Loading up on the same Missions for NLTT21088 System, delivering only to either Hertz Station or Dobrovolski Ring (because neither have any Security to worry about :D plus since i am currently working myself up the Fed Ranks, i don't need "bad publicity" with the officials).

This routine currently nets me around 8-10 Million Platinum within a few hours, depending how fast my cargo hold fills up. Naturally the Pirate killing is somewhat contradictory and delays my gains so to speak, but for currently 130k-250k per kill mission i won't say No to them. Or even the smaller ones since everything adds up right ? :P Delivery Missions pay roughly the same amount (Current Ranking is Expert / Broker, let's not mention the Exploration one :| )

So, that's about it. Next goal: get Rank Ensign with the Feds and fetch me a Federal Dropship - and then regret it because it moves like a Seacow in the Sahara Desert, or something to that extend :lol:

Anyway, back to topic; went out with two other CMDRs I met on Founder's World and brought a T9 to a high intensity CZ. Ended up ramming a conda and some dropships. Surprisingly, combat performance wasn't as disappointing as I thought (or it might be that the two other wingmen just covered me pretty well)! It just seemed like an oversized Asp, with an insanely bad maneuverability.

the war is over in Azrael, Patron's Principles are now the owning faction.

i bought a chrome Vulture skin to celebrate wanting to buy a chrome Vulture skin.

---> just had the best HIRES spawns i've seen for a long while, 2.2 mil in 45 minutes and it was still going strong when i left. Exioce, near Azrael. brilliant. thanks to CMDR Blazing for the tip.

Last night I moved up to Mostly Harmless as I started to do some rep missions in hopes of advancement. I am not holding my breath at that.

On the other hand, woke up this morning to discover that someone tried to break into our flat as we slept, same with the downstairs one. So the morning consisted with driving the wife to work, dealing with the police, and then having to rush to the Apple store to make an appointment to get my iPad replaced.

Police got Fingerprints and DNA, and I got a new iPad. Tonight, I am grilling some Wurst for dinner, and then grinding some more rep missions. I am also trying to shore up the Empire in the system I am in as the Feds are knocking at the door.

See you out there commanders, and remember to keep the Cockpit Doors locked. ;)
