Call for civilian aid out in the Peliades, thought it was a good excuse to take out the Slumpbuster. My old smuggling ship, really great for slipping in and snatching escape pods out from under Thargoids. I realize the call is mostly for megaships and things like that, and all those people needing help, but there are plenty of pilots helping them, I think there needs to be someone out there watching out for those guys on the front lines. Like myself, when a basilik got cranking and ripped open my ship, luckily with so many recuse ops going someone snatched me up before the Thargoids. I didn't want to wake up in a rope in the Church of the Far God's church on some distant planet.Also, its much more convenient to selling illegal Thargoid sensors. They don't carry those in escape hatches. I've been making some pretty steady cash from it. Enough to warrant my time at least. I'm not sure about the numbers I have to sell to lock down the station though, and I don't want to do that, so I think I should change tactics before I'm get fingered as the mastermind behind a terrorist attack.
Which is timely, since my last few patrols came up empty with escape pods and sensors alike. Space is pretty dry now, and with only a few days left on the open contract I'm going to switch my tactics and try to make it in the top 25%.
