NOVA FLEET [General Discussion]

AARGH!! Missed you again , I was updating the website, and doing the weekly update tonight. - Ill be on tomorrow for a lot of the evening though, and will hopefully catch you then :)

We WILL get to fly together:D

No problem mate, just have to skirt about to top of on rares before I jump out into the black again. Still want a few more creds before I buy a vulture to try combat in, having not done any yet lol.

Well - I've sold the Cobra - already had 1.2 million, and made 700,000 on the sale when part-ex'd for a Type 6 !! (I know, I know)... But I now have my shields back (phew), and 100T of storage space, so I'm looking out for a lucrative loop now to push on my finances (I found a 3 jump, 3000CR/T pair last night, so hopefully that'll still be there tonight).

When I've made a couple more million, I think I might then go back to a cobra, kitted out for combat...
 
I ditched the T6 last night. Horrible ship imo. Went back to the MIII Cobra ( aahh)

I attempted a trade route last night, much to my frustration.

I left Diso to attempt the Fujin run after pickin up a good few rares from the surrounding systems. In one of which I picked up about 11 ton of Imp slaves, only to have my hatches blasted as I left the station (PMSL) 6 ton of slaves...floating in space ( this was where I made my mind up to trade the T6 back).

Trading is not for me really, I've known that all along, but it was worth trying it out for the 650k profit for a one way trip, selling about a dozen or more rares.

Who blasted ya hatches mate? If you want fighter escort give the CAG a shout and he'll assign one or more of the void walkers to fly cap for ya
 
I know what I was talking about. "The frontier system's as a whole" I maybe should've said.
Oh, I get it, we don0t have to take them as a whole, just go to systems that are near the limits of inhabited space (wherever they are, that is the only
condition) and take them, that's why I was asking if Qi Yomisii or 16 Persei, two systems in wich we have passed a few sessions, is near the Frontier

Cheers CMDR Garfs, I didn't catch the GT or call sign, all I knew was, as soon as I hit open space my shields to a hammering from someone behind me. The 'Under attack' message came over the PA, so I boosted as much as I could away from the station, add to that an attempt at interdiction on me too as I was powering up my FSD, my little Type 6 was knackered by the time I got to my destination...16 tons lighter.

Should I decide to try trading in future again I'll defo call the CAG.

I also corrected my spelling of Fujin above...makes me look like I was having a rage pmsl

I'm also up for providing Trade escort. I do a lot of trading myself, but if anyone needs an escort, ill bring a cobra /beams / missiles to the party ... just say the word.

Lol, I have an unarmed, UN shielded cobra, never had more than 30% damage. Only been had once and got away. Must just be lucky I guess :D

Yeah that's a Cobra......I had a dumpy little T6 lol, I got away obviously, but you definitley could hear screaming in space last night, and it was a high pitched 'RUN AWAY' type pmsl
 
Hey guys. Just wanted to say hello. I just put my name/info down on the signup thread to join the Fleet.
I just recently got the game and am in the process of learning what I can about the game and how to play it. I hope by joining up, that it will smooth out that process just a bit, hopefully. I don't have a ton of experience with space sims, but I do like them. The closest game to this I've played is probably X3: Terran Conflict (years ago).

I'm mostly interested in the Exploring. Trading. Mining aspects of the game. So, if anyone has any tips to offer, I'd love the input.
 
I'm hoping to get back in flight around 16:30 today. spotted a cool little trade path last night that my Cobra can handle with ease. Also had some USS, LES, RES & High Conlfict sites along the way.

Re Arming my Cobra too as I want to get some quality grade beam lasers.

PEW PEW......PEW

*He's no use to me dead*

lol

Gimme a shout Burnz. Currently in HeHeng, hitting up the civil war that's erupted.
 
I finally swapped my trade-only Hauler in for a Cobra Mk. III earlier this week, and then upgraded it to get this.

Still doing the odd bit of rare trading to get more money for upgrades, but have now been concentrating on smuggling and bounty hunting.

CALLING ALL NOVA COMMANDERS.

THIS IS THE HAND OF KARMA. WE* ARE THE GALACTIC LEAGUE OF BOUNTY HUNTERS, THE PIRATES SEEM TO THINK THEY CAN ATTACK UNPROTECTED TRADERS AND MINERS WITH OUT RETRIBUTION.

THIS ENDS TODAY.

JOIN THE HAND OF KARMA AND HELP PROTECT THE WEAPONLESS, THE UN-SHIELDED AND BRING THE PIRATE SCOURGE TO JUSTICE.

Haha, you get it but you don't. I'm saying I see Nova Fleet as a loose mobile collective of pilot's. That would be limited if we were to choose a home system. In my opinion anyway. ;)
.
EDIT: I in no way speak for fleet comand though.

Now I finally get it :D I was thinking that we should start taking over systems across the frontier, like we said at first.
-----------------------

Guys, we've made it to the GalNet report on the weekly newsletter:
FDev said:
After several decades as a Freelancer member of the Pilots Federation, Commander DarkStar united a fleet of former Imperial and Federal pilots. Working closely with Commander Equin0x, he formed a freelancer fleet to patrol the frontier and assist in the economic development. The long term aim is to help free them the superpowers. CMDR Equin0x commented to GalNet: "The superpowers exploit the populations of the frontier colonies to gain cheap labour and materials, in conditions that are near to, if not actual slavery." Their influence and fame seems to spread fast, and with over 100 ships, their number of associates grows even faster.

We really have to start doing something to "test" the persistent universe, my suggestion, let's take over Pand, outer colony, in the very end of civilizated space, probably full of criminals.


My suggestion is this:
First, we all head there, and start trading.
Important thing is to do all the missions we can, at the same time, every fighter should start hunting pirates and criminals in this system.
We should bring there every kind of commodities we can.
While we do this, the fleet's comand should make a thread on the forum updating with data recovered from our CMDRs (maybe we could pass all the data thru our forum).

If we do this, I think we'll get this serious.
