It is supposed to be Salomé - don't know how to do an é on my phone. ;)

And there is only one 'Salomé' in the game.

Cheers,

Drew.

Yes but we all know she actually died early in Reclamation on that ship and was replaced by Cuthrick (who stole the technology from Hans) with a clone. Any time somebody has to go out of their way to prove their bonafides they're probably lying, so it's a safe bet that Kahina is not in fact a True Daughter of the Empire but a pawn of Cuthrick who himself is merely a bishop in a larger chess match. But who is the Queen.

On a related note, it seems kind of suspicious that all these Dynasty Expedition ships launched a few years after Hans II was presumably killed in Lave, nobody ever has paraded around Hans 1's body.

Some of us have been pointing the finger at Cuthrick for a while. He's part of the organization pulling the strings, even if he isn't at the top of it.

However, I don't think Kahina died in Reclamation - I think she was already genetically engineered (by Cuthrick/Walden) which was why Octavia wanted to bodysnatch her in the first place.

Then why did galnet publish that freelance report?

I'm all for people saying they're covering it up, but that argument breaks down entirely when freelance reports like that get brought through

Galnet is just a news feed. They receive atricles from NPCs, in game news papers and commanders. They do some sensoring, but quite a lot is accepted.

The in game news papers are awfully quiet.

Something like this. Not sure by whom, but Octavia did need HER specifically and there must be a reason she was viable for the memory transfer, and not just anybody.

Also, I haven't seen any posts asking FD for tinfoil hats in commander creator yet...

Okay, since we've got nothing constructive to do for a couple of days, let's have your predictions of where Salome is aiming for in the Bubble on the 29th.
You all get two guesses and if anyone is correct, I'll give them 1MCR - unless you're on XBox, in which case you're hosed.
You can't use the same system as anyone else, so get your bids in early.

I'll update this post with the taken systems if anyone else chooses to play.

My bets are Ishtar and Tartarus.
TiberiuS: Acamar/Theta Eridani and ...
BuddyE: Tionisla and Reorte
L.S Algir: Lave and Cursa
G4RY: Persephone and Eurybia
SpocksOddSocks: Sheela Na Gig and Alpha Centauri (Hutton)
Matzov: Lethe and Hecate
Mathew of Tegalus: Cemiess and Prism
Han_Zen: Ran/Epsilon Eridani and ...
OBYOZ: The alien ship/cave thing from the trailer
Masheikh Scytale: Ix and ...
Erimus: Beagle Point (watch out for this one, inside information and all)
Lobey: Gateway and ...
Txakal: Robigo
CMDR DancingLemur: Giedi Prime (if this is correct, I'll increase the prize to 5MCR)
BluWolve: Tianve and THARGOIDS!!!1!eleventyone!



@Jaiotu
I'm gonna put you down for Cass A :eek:

Yeah, I've been suspicious of him from the beginning, random example post https://forums.frontier.co.uk/showt...e-wrecks-WIP?p=4184032&viewfull=1#post4184032

Me neither, it was just a throw away dig at Drew (unless it's true in which case points to me for sussing it out ).

Ok, I say Tionisla or Reorte. Why Tionisla? Don't really know. But Reorte was the starting point for the Dynasty Expedition.

I know, i know... way to obvious. But things are sometimes best hidden in the open.

I still say Lave and the Sidy from Lave radio to broadcast.

But I think that in fact Drew doesn't care about griefers , protectors and so on.... what will happen is that we'll see a flaming clipper with a screaming Salomé inside rushing towards the bubble while a thargoïd fleet at her heels , emerges from the locked Col 70 sector in fury....and that will put everyone at the same level : rabbits!

:p Eurydice must be somewhere else.

Eurybia has:

Makalu and Tira Flirble << these are the only uniquely named planets in that system

Ahhh yes, Tira Flirble!
I'm trying to remember which system has the awesomely named station "Glenn's House of Lambada".
I remember it's somewhere close to Persephone (where my fleet lives).
