Alpha Centauri Warning..

The star is scoopable
There's a station near the primary to buy fuel
You can buy extra fuel tanks.

Need I say more?

And to add, it is possible to make the trip in a default Sidewinder jumping in from Sol and not scooping or docking at Al-din.
 
you came back in asp? And statistically speaking I would probably not. Curently how things stand: around 70-80 killed, all from sidewinders to anacondas, during that I ran 2 times (when I was in viper mkIV vs wings), never died. So I suggest you save yourself some credits and just dodge the system until it's in federation.

Well just a few things :D

I'm an admiral in the federation, I'm also a trucker, and I also Invented the mug....

You are seriously outnumbered by the truckers.....

Once your name goes on everyones hit list it might become a tad more difficult.........

Still at least your sticking to your principles, and that's worthy of a mention....

cough. "A" mug... not "THE" mug ;-)
A very similar mug from a nearby system.

THE mug was invented by Muggsy.

Good for you. It's always nice to have the populace reminded why Federation rule is currently a bad thing.

Probably the same thing was said by barbarians in the past when they've met army of Roman empire. Just embrace it cmdr, federation brings light :D

I think this is more like the Japanese calling the European powers "barbarians" back in the day. They had absolutely no idea what are they up against :D

When bunch of us were on the meeting with the President and discussing Alpha Centauri, he asked where you were and one of his senior advisors said you're on a trading run and President was visibly dissapointed that you didn't show up. He was talking about stripping your rank, but I stood up and said that it's your first slip and that besides this one mistake, your service to federation can be example to everyone else and that calmed him down and he said that he might have overreacted a bit. So in a way you owe me one and I hope if it gets ugly in alpha centauri you can return the favour by covering my back :D
 
I would, but the problem is that a lot of the time, you won't be able to know how far a station is from the main star, when picking up a mission, because no system data is available for that system (which is the case quite often actually).

You could explore more around your local system which will give you a lot more data on systems or maybe you could buy the exploration data from the Galaxy map.
 
I'm shooting at anyone that enters alpha centauri and tries to reach those 2 stations - in the name of federation. As an admiral in federation I decided it's risky to have independent system so close to Earth, so the system is under embargo until populations comes to their senses and embraces federation. Anyone trying to do business with alpha centauri will be treated as enemy of federation and get shot.

just gonna leave this here so I don't need to spam local chat...

What about Fed aligned commanders who are trying to undermine the system via trade? going to kill them on sight also? :)

I love the fact that the mightly Federation is intimidated by a bunch of Filthy Truckers. They sent a number of capital ships to another system we are in and we sent them away with their tail between their legs ;-)
 
Dear Cmdr Bodycount

We are currently all a bit busy at the moment trying to take over George Pantazis.

Popping over to Alpha Centauri just to entertain you is a bit of a tiring journey for us. Would you mind ever so much if we didn't turn up?

Maybe you could come and visit us in George Pantazis?

Regards

The Hutton Orbital Truckers - Political Information Team

Yeah, I'll need to solve that somehow. Maybe I could make a list or something. But on the other hand people just might be saying they'll be helping federation and then keep helping the independents. Still if anyone really loves federation and wants to help out and isn't going to lie, you're welome to join!

And I have no problem whatsoever if you guys don't come here. I'll skip the journey to George Pantazis, I'm also a bit busy. :D

Regards,

The federation shadow operations division - leader of pew pew Alpha Centauri operations

The Truckers consist of ~~~ 800 all around members, and I think about 300 of them are constantly active, while the rest mostly just watches out for things to do. You are in danger of becoming that thing to do. Making a list might make you realize the numbers you are against (We might be just some ragtag band of misfits, not some elite force. But we are a GIANT ragtag band of misfits who help each other.)

Excellent reply commander :)

We fully understand your schedule is busy. Please don't worry as we are happy to keep an open invitation for you to any system we are trucking in.

Can we just ask one question? When you say "leader of pew pew Alpha Centauri Operations" .... is that a leader of one?

It's allright. I don't have a deadline until when I expect the system to get back under federation control. I can adapt and switch from patroling to guerilla tactics and randomize it a bit.

That is correct. But if I put it like: "leader of me, myself and I ", it all of the sudden doesn't sound so bad ;)

I think the terminology you're looking for is:

Zerg rush!!!

Ok, hang on, where the hell where YOU when various pirate groups were blockading Hutton Orbital a few months back huh? NO Federation ships responded to the thousands of distress calls and pleas for help from the Federation, not a single damn one.

And people wonder why I'm an Emperor's Man, at least She sends help when it's requested, even if it's not Her own people who request the help....

If I wasn't a few thousand light years away in the Black, I'd be there kicking your Federation ass back to Sol, and making sure Hutton Orbital stays under the control of the Hutton Truckers, I didn't fly out thousands of tons of scrap out there for the Federation or Empire to control that station damn it.

That's a good question. Because at the time, Hutton Orbital and all of Alpha Centauri were under Federation control. The Feds couldn't be bothered with some backwater solar system with a pirate problem.

Damn straight, they did nothing for a system that was part of the Federation and NOW they want to get all uppity about the system being in the control of someone else?

I am an Emperor's Man as I said, but when it comes to Hutton Orbital, I'm a Trucker, not a Fed or Imp, neither of them deserve to have a say in that system, they gave up that right.
