Wanted in Leesti, the New Wingman, Fer-De-Lance Retrofit at LTT 15899
20 Dec 2015Synthorian
Date: 20th of December, 3301After my antics at Leesti and the death of CMDR Komsrov, a meally bounty of 11000 credits was issued on my head. It was only system-wide, and jumping ship to Diso was an easier option than having to deal with System Authority, plus, the place was swarming with fresh targets. I spent a few days there as I made a good chunk of change towards making the Sundowner a ship to be reckoned with.
Whilest there, I encountered another bounty hunter. Far more honorable than the now deceased CMDR Komsrov. CMDR Lyle_Awesome (strange name) offered to share 50/50 of the profits made, if I could aid him on his hunts. Seemed reasonable, even if he was in an Eagle. Plus he needed that money far more that I did. In a span of 3 days, Not only have I made a vast profit, but my new wingman has made enough to not only upgrade directly to a Viper MKIV, but upgrade the vessel substansially with new components and weapons.
CMDR Lyle_Awesome has proven to be a valuable and reliable asset, though he still has much to learn. I'll keep an eye on him.
I didn't really think I would be heading back to LTT 15899 anytime soon, but CMDR Lyle has convinced me otherwise. He normally operates from that area, and has explained to me that Kekule Orbital contains the necessary components that the Sundowner requires. So we made the short trip back. He wasn't kidding. The place had every internal component that my ship required. The only thing that was missing was the Military Grade Composite, but that can be obtained at a later date.
The Sundowner now had a Cannon that it really deserves, and with some field tests, it has proved to be damn powerful against internal components. Cruisers don't stand a chance now. The ship is still vulnerable to small fighters however, but I'm sure that can be rectified with some heavy shielding. I also had the engineers install new avionics for planetary flight, and a vehicle hanger for a combat capable FRV. Should prove to be a useful addition.
CMDR Synthorian, out.
