Horizons Another call for module increase

Mike Reacher

I was beetling along in my Trading Python, minding my own business when a nasty little NPC attacked me.
I kicked him into next week.:D

Then a little later (2 or 3 minutes) I get the yellow notice 2 seconds before interdiction.
A nasty big Anaconda being driven by an expert. (Don't like experts but didn't have time to run).

We had a barney. I had 1 ring left. She had 12% hull left. And she jumped.
I sat there feeling quite let down, as another Anaconda scalp would be nice.
Then decided to wake scan her (I think it was a her. Funny name)
Oh, alright I can follow you.
Jumped to where ever she was and started chasing her. Got real close as well.
Then it hit me. I don't have an interdiction thingy.
While I'm cursing about learning something new, she jumps again. I presume that was the case.
She disappeared with no wake signal.

I want more module holders ........:mad:

Buy an Anaconda. :p

Seriously, though, although I, too, would like to have a ship with everything on board, it would ultimately be against the gameplay, I guess. Sacrifices in favour of specific role are needed to force us to try different ships and different things.

Python could easily have six utility mounts for sure, though.

Then again, she's not a hunter ship, which would need a whole range of scanners, boosters and countermeasures, like FdL, for example.

*shruggs* :)

P.S: Btw. ship disappearing without a wake is weird, are you sure she didn't just hide behind a planet or something? If a ship is close to a celestial body, they can momentarily disappear from your scanner.

To be honest I don't know. Maybe she did hide. It was very close to a planet.
Also Chris, I'm not a hunter. Or a combat pilot. But since I got the Python, and got a gun and shield upgrade, I have killed about 8 or 9 Anacondas.
(Occasionally had help from the feds, And being a solo artiste:D I don't find too many engineered NPC's. Just the thermal attacks.)(actually they find me)

More modules won't happen as they are balanced for each ship. The good news is equipment storage to quickly swap out items.
