August 28th 3301. Looks like we got us a convoy

28 Aug 2015Torrente
It doesn’t happen overnight, and definitely not in the magnitude we’ve seen today but I was here, minding my own, when suddently a careless T7 jumps out of a starport, almost hitting Barón Rojo (which would have been unforgivable!). Turns out that commander and I were doing the same route, so we decided “what the heck”, there is a significative number of pirates between us and the creds, so we better fly together.

Of course, it’s never easy being cheesy an honest trader, and some associates turned up to join our little convoy, so it wasn’t that little after all. By the end of the night, four commanders hitting the routes together, making quite the considerable bucks, I reckon. I didn’t get much at the end of the day, but I now have a B5 frameshift drive that my lovely assistant Estianna installed. We’ve gained MUCH jump capacity, and now can move way quicker between stations.

But tonight’s a personal best. 4 ships together. My buddy Commander Davarpe even got himself a VERY beautiful T6 that got me completely nostalgic about the old Fatboy V, but my other colleague, Desposa, was flying a slower Python.

Never been the kind for leadership, but it’s awesome setting up a convoy. Not to mention the extra 14k creds we crunched in trade dividends at every stop. Added to the 150k-ish we did on trade it’s certainly a motivation to set up one, isn’t it?
