Gather a wing, head back. Surely there are 4 CMDRs ready to deal with this...?

If not, I'll be over in a bit.

EDIT: Not 'soon' though. Quite a distance away with a short-jump Vulture atm...

best to deal with them at 4 or just before then. They'll buy rebuys and come back. if we give them time.
I'm weighing up how much i want to play in open and how much i just want to keep going with this storyline.

If they get anywhere near losing shields they'll run like the cowards they are.
 
I have some questions to pose for discussion.

1. Who or what group placed the messages in the beacons? As the initial messages appeared in the capitol systems whoever did MB this wanted all sides to know equally.
2. Why are we finding UAs alongside some of the crashed ships? Where the ships carrying them to deploy or where they collecting them and they caused the crashed. Are the UAs related directly to the crashed alien ship or where they created by someone to track or attack the ships from inside.
3. Why do the alien ships sofar all crash the same way up. Is there something intesting about the other side like a window oral thing that was are not allowed to see yet?

Isn't the answer to 3 that there's only one crash model and it's been the same at each site? As far as I can tell (admittedly from screenshots) all the bits from the first crash are at the other 2 sites in the same spots with the same orientation as the original site. The only differences are added extra bits. Even the grooves in the ground where it crashed are the same.

Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong :)
 
the 3rd crash is very recent. have you notcied how much more green it is than the last? Id also like to point out that these crashed ships are not 150 years old. these are new ships. Type-9, conda etc
 
Trolls in Novas, killed me in an asp while he's in a corvette. Go back 500ly.
I'm not going back so I miss out on a story line thanks you idiot.
 
Even if there is only one crash model it doesn't mean they have to place it the same way up each time. unless it is an incomplete model.
 
At the risk of repeating myself::

"Whilst we're on the topic of Dangerous; Novas is likely to be a little hot this evening, very attractive for the regular ne'er-do-wells. Hardpoints deployed at all times, shields up and be ready to stand in defence of your fellow pilots if needed. Wing-up where possible.

Do bring:
Lasers, Mutli Cannons, Shields & Boosters; to deter trouble and add to the fireworks when necessary.

Don't bring:
Cargo or KWS; so as to avoid attracting trouble.
Hundred-Million-CR ships; to avoid the pain of inevitable rebuys."

I should also have probably added

Do bring:
Combat ready ship.

Don't bring:
Explorer/Trader ships.

don't worry, someone will get an audio recording and transcription of it. I know i'll try at least. Lots of cmdrs here too so you shouldn't miss out.

My Cobra is always combat ready.

I'm not sure if I am going to join you guys though, these Thargoids aren't going to find themselves.
 
Cowards... I'm out here in Pleiades looking for trouble. :p

Even the NPCs were high waking out. Ran across these nearby in a Convoy USS.

Was in Takaruia, may have cut it too close to make it to Novas in time. I've got 33 jumps and need to scoop fuel often.

However, I have found that:

Takarua beacon is no longer transmitting.
Takarua Anomalous Signal is no longer populated.

I was at the beacon for over an hour, and mode switched the anomalous signal 5 times.

it's possible it transmits on a 2 hour cycle, i dropped in to it at 6:55 but had no transmission till 8:01
 
So as a casual player, what sites should I go to now. I've been just to the ruins. No crash sites. Can someone list them quickly. Its hard to keep up when this is moving so fast.
 
Thanks for the heads up guys.
I'll leave my ASP at the station next to the beacon in case we have a new hunt afterwards.
My ol'n'rusty Corvette arrived just minutes ago.
I'll provide some guns if needed. ;)
