Ah, I need to see a smiley before I realise it’s a joke-my brain doesn’t function until at least an hour after breakfast coffee!
In retrospect I would have thought a construction CG could be decoupled from the megaship, though it makes more RP sense to have one; and the CG would have a time limit, Erimus’ post mentions that it would have a failure option
edit: actually, this might cause me to change from my planned PythonX (or perhaps KraitPhantomX) to my annieX which I plan to update to suit the new mining capabilities once the release is out. Unless the megaship had outfitting so I could swap over functions...

What I have heard so far is that megaships can't be the base for a community goal, for whatever reason… they said it's impossible. So I'm curious how all that is going to be… Might aswell not happen at all, but I hope it does.
I'm sorry, I might have missed something completely, but is there a megaship coming with DW2 at all? I mean, aren't they supposed to jump ~500 ly on weekly basis, while DW2 is going to make 4500 ly per week?
That proposal you linked is outdated. There will be no megaship, however the station near Sagittarius A* is quasi a sure thing. Details yet to be confirmed and disclosed.
That would be amazing, just for the Week docked at Sag A, so everyone can go minning
Ah, thanks for the clarification!
Shame, a megaship would have been a good fleet flagship.
I'm very much looking forward to DW2, but am thinking there might be some players which use it as an excuse to mass gank everyone at beagle point. As a precaution, I'm taking a fully PvP loaded T10 combat build who offers the Hull repair service to other CMDRs.
Is anyone else taking a PvP combat build to help protect the fleet?

No. We are in Fleetcomm PG. I'm 100% confident that there's no gankers are among those.
Even if some individual would end up ganking some of us:
1. He/she will be kicked and banned from Fleetcomm PG.
2. If you get shot because of some childish ganker, you can ask support to return your ship and data since it was a violation against PG rules.
Frontier should add options for the PGs. Like allowing PvP or not, and basically make shots ineffective if the PG is non-PvP.No. We are in Fleetcomm PG. I'm 100% confident that there's no gankers are among those.

Fair enough. For RP purposes, I fancy going in a combat T10 anyway. I prefer the ship to the Annie, runs cool, turns ok in SC & has a good view in VR.
I went to Colonia in a 17LY full G5 ENG HRP Vette and loved it; I've never enjoyed roaming the galaxy in paper thin ships.
My Commander's backstory means that she never goes unarmed.
Should anyone start shooting I'll be armed with a Task Manager.
That sounds suspiciously like something a ganker might say.
Well, maybe i was being overconfident, since we already know that there is well known gankers in the roster.
But, Fleetcomm PG rules binds to them also and they know the consequences. And if someone gets his kicks for shooting unarmed explorers, i will kick back with Alt+F4.

Well known gankers? Who?
And also I don't think they will get access to fleetcomm anyways if they're well known gankers.
Sorry Nagi, but forum rules says i cant "name and shame", so you have to figure out it yourself.
But, i wouldnt worry about those too much.

So much this. At the very least A-rated shields and thrusters with a distributor that can provide reasonably frequent boosting. And yes, once I also flew an armed Vette to Colonia.

The roster is completely open as the expedition is public, but the group is private and as such can have its own rules. So being on the roster doesn't necessarily mean having access to the official PG.
