Following the Long Haired Lady
07 Dec 2015Jim Beaumont
Once refitted, I followed her to the 'source' of her hold of metal. She has found a really good spot, but she isn't the only one to know of this place. Lots of laser in the distance, and a warning came up about a lack of security in the area. Still I settled in to see what goodies i could come up with, only to find that the refinery I had fitted is faulty. I'm spending too much time have to sort the stuff myself, and in this area that could be the death of me, literally. Well, at least I know the location as well now. Back to the dealer to give him a few words on the refinery he fitted.It transpires it's a galactic wide issue with the software, the manufacturers are working on a solution. Hope they sort it soon. Bloody pain in the painite it is.
Took the opportunity to grab a bite to eat in the canteen, and bumped in to my Merc mate, he'd just returned from the CZ, telling me it was easy pickings. So we teamed up. Someone else was looking for some action too, so that made 3 of us. We tore it up. Each of us picking a target, me in my FAS, Merc in his Anny, and our new found Oppo in his new FAS. Any sign of trouble and we aided each other. The Pythons seemed to cause most problems, but good wing play made for good results. Once ammunition was low, we all made our way out and cashed in. 1 million+ cr each, nice thanks.
The civil war ended yesterday, in favour of those we fought for. So it was back to running a few missions, some chill time in the mining area, and a wait for the next opportunity.
I haven't seen the Long Haired Lady since, hope she is okay. Last thing I'd like to see is her ship smashed up in the rocks.
