Long time no see!Not logged anything recently, mainly because it's been business as usual and nothing of real interest has happened! Over the last few days, though, I went for a wander out to see some local nebulae. Local! The nearest was 1,000LY away and now I'm calling...
Novice!I'm a Novice! Never really intended to get into combat, but I was asked to look out for a Pirate Lord and stumbled across him; it was a bit hairy, he was in a Fer-de-lance, but I reckon the title "Lord" was a self-granted one, made to make...
All the way down ...Got a Diamondback for exploring, one of those ultra-light, hollowed out builds. Pretty cheap for what I got, and gets over 40LY without seeing those weird Engineers people have been talking about with their dodgy enhancements. Took it for a test - it's...
Rank has its privilegesThese Imperials do like a title! The shipyards let me in, people want to deal with me, I even got a hefty discount! Picked myself up a Clipper - yes! A Clipper! Gone from 40t of space if I strip everything bare to 180t with proper weapons, shields...
Clawing backFound a nice, easy passenger run today, nowhere near as far as the 36 Ophiuchi runs, let alone the Hutton run! Managed to claw back some of the credits I'd blown on getting my Imperial reputation up, and found a rare good I'd never even heard of, so...
Hard work never hurt ...Got a tip from a fellow CMDR that the Empire were looking for pilots to (how did he put it?) "run a few errands" for them. Not brilliant money, but the kind that would build your reputation and standing. Which is no bad thing, as an Outsider...
Cobra!Wow - those long haul deliveries are draining, but worth it. If you can get three of them at the same time and then do it all again ... OH! The monies!!! I've got my Cobra, I've got the insurance covered, I'm a very tired, very happy pilot! I'm...
Mugs!!!My first Rare trading trip, I'd been to Hutton for a profitable mission, so I thought I'd pick up some Mugs and Gin - popped over to Holva to sell them and bring some Duelling Blades back. Made roughly 17k per ton on each of them - shame you can't buy...
New Ship!Well, I got myself a Viper. Went for the Mk IV, as the Mk III didn't have as much space and I'm using it to haul cargo until I can afford a Truck, then I can turn this one into a strike vessel and learn how to scrap a bit better! Timing was good - the...
Pew! Pew!Took myself into the RES today to see what combat is all about. Real combat, not these holo-sim training sessions! There were plenty of cops about, so I was never going to be the real target, but even after upgrading my shields and hull I could tell...
