Getting Dracula, Part 2: The Fuel Trader
28 Dec 2020Sirius T. Dog
After delivering 100 landmines, I realized my Cobra would not make the cut if I wanted to keep trading materials. So I made my largest investment yet: a dedicated mass-cargo transporter!Costing me approximately 20 million credits and having a 1.1 million credit rebuy, my Type 7 was capable of carrying 292 tons of cargo, had a fuel scoop, and could jump over 30Ly. It was perfect for gaining rep with engineers, along with unlocking them!
I carried over the remaining 100 landmines in my new ship, and then began trading commodities. Unfortunately, there was only one commodity I could profitably trade in mass quantities: hydrogen fuel.
It wasn't a large profit, but it wasn't a terrible one!
Fast-forward to where I am now, and I have began trading some other stuff: Microbial Furnaces, Resonating Separators, Auto-fabricators, and Advanced Catalysers are all being traded between Awyra Flirble and Demolition Unlimited by me. However, I still continue to courier hydrogen fuel, slowly draining stars of more fuel than I will probably ever use during my career as a commander.
