Save Obsidian Orbital - Humanity UNITE!

There are other stations in Maia.... but all owned by the Ant Hill mob... so

1. choose a faction
2. run mission for tnat faction and do not trade or drop explo data...
3. raise them to >60%
4. end Ant Hill mob's war in a neighboutr
ng system
5. trigger and win a war v AHM

Hmmm, I see. Thanks for the info.


As a side note, I just got Hyperdicted during my jump back to Oort Orbital. It would seem that they are watching with interest.
 
Count me in. I’ve been doing the work over at Bao Landing for a few days now but I’m happy to divert my efforts to their Maian neighbor. It’s nice to know Im not striving alone. One thing I would like to see is us being given the opportunity next time to defend those stations we have repaired. I would hate to see the work we do wiped out one Thursday night. (Is “Thargoid Thursday” a thing for them I wonder?). See you out there. Cmdr PlayDay09 of Cerulean Fleet.
 
Count me in; my Anaconda and I are up for repairing this station. I was involved in the building of this in the CG, so it represents a lot of my efforts and I don't like losing things I worked on.

I've been dumping stuff there infrequently, but if there is a more focussed plan, please get in touch with me. I'll get a type 9 to ship stuff in
 
LOL, guys, if you have so much time and energy to spend, I have 21 meter schooner for overhauling. You will do something meaningful at least…
 
Hello, I think I will try in a very humble way to help, and make few runs during the week-end.
What's the priority, is there something we should bring first? Or can we pick anything on the list?
Anyway see you there, or not

Why is this not a CG, this is the sort of thing with the right rewards people would have flocked to, or not...I can understand the love around the station as a symbol of the game blah de blah, but come on the station doesn't even have a shipyard that surprised me tbh.

As for Humanity. Lokvette gave up on that a long time ago after the (its early brain can input a cool sounding RP excuse) plus the fact im about 16k out the other way...

But good luck and for once its nice to see this sort of thing going on :)
 
Does Obsidian still need Basic medicines, or should I divert to one of the burning stations? I normally haul indium to the repair stations, Obsidian was paying 6000cr/t for Medicines a few days ago, am en-route with 520 tonnes.

@Lily from anim.o.v.e, I and many others where exploring Maia well before Obsidian & Palin turned up, I guess we all invaded thargoid space (although something tells me Pleiades isn't thargoid space)

Obsidian was one of the first community built stations, I'd say that is worth getting it back on line. Am not in any rush though..

I guess now that the Palin missions are over, running meds is the next best cash cow ... Can I be bothered though?

At the moment everything is needed. However since some items are available close to or from within Maia - they are going to fill 1st.
Indium 2.9 mill required (1% complete)
Galium 838k /1%
Titanium 274k 4%
Copper 248k/13%
Aluminium 359k 5%
Synthetic Fabrics 1.2 mill 0%
Polymers 425k 1%
Water Purifiers 358k 3%
Robotics 1.1MIll 0%
Ceramic Composite 237K 0%
CMM composite 237 0%
Insulating Membrane 282k 1%
Emergency power cells 267k 0%
Power comverter 245k 0%
Natural Fabrics 237k 0%


The closest Agri is about 250LY away, so Natural Fabrics will be slow for example, and probably a good idea to bring them in with you
 
thanks for the heads-up, since I'm also gathering exploration data I'm not really in a hurry, so, heading to agri port right now, first natural fabrics load is on the way.

I wouldn't say cash cow, it is a nice earner though. Here's my issue with payments at the moment.

Earn 6000 cr/t hauling medicines for Aegis 200LY to stations recently attacked - 4 million credits in a T-9 or larger

Earn up to 1000 cr/t hauling metals for Aegis to stations under repair - 1 million credits in a T-9 or larger

Earn 8 million doing weapon haulage missions 5LY to Aegis rescue ships (520 tonne or higher capacity)

I appreciate that weapons are needed for security onboard the ships, but why is Aegis paying more for weapons than the goods needed to fix the stations. There should be a a bump in profits for all goods heading out to repair stations.

@lokvette - Meds sell high to stations that are in a process of evacuation, has always been like that.

What?!

And there I was making 64k, yes sixty-four thousand credits, per run in a Cutter delivering Titanium to Obsidian Orbital last night. :D

Yeah it is messed up, not much point doing repair runs for money. Bad enough that Aegis pay us peanuts to repair a station, they will happily shell out 8 million if you run a weapons haulage mission lol... Priorities eh? Gotta keep those refugees in check..

Heck you can make more cash just running metals around the Pleiades cluster. Aegis (FDEV) need to give more of an incentive to haul metals A-B 200LY's. Only reason I am helping Obsidian for rubbish pay is because I helped build the station, the other stations need to start paying out.

This ones not really about the money though is it :) - I actually quite like the way its an unofficial CG - being done by people who want to do it rather than for financial benefit

So I guess the other stations should remain offline? Have never really cared for money is this game, amassed a fleet purely because I've enjoyed trucking over the years. Aegis is responsible for all of this, so why shouldn't they pay?

Let's be honest here, Obsidian Orbital is run by pirates that allowed a military organisation to develop biological weapons. Now they want us to fix it's mess for virtually nothing? All the while paying truckers millions of credits to ship weapons?

Have been helping Obsidian over the last few days, still it kinda feels like we are being taken for a ride.
