Distant Worlds II - Fleet Roster Sign Up Thread

Never been part of an organised expedition before, but did several trips during the barely organised trips or Formadine Rift. Decided to sign up this time, and very pleased to see I ended up with the my lucky number at the end of my roster number (47, I got 5547).

While it was only really a one in a hundred chance, I'll still take those odds.

hi mate. My first time too apart from the FRift searches. Fancy winging up some time?
 
I registered for the Distant worlds 2 expedition within a day or two after it was first announced. I'm on the roster on the google sheet docs, but just checked the Fleet Roster on EDSM and discovered that I'm not on the list (There is a gap in the numbering). I've been on EDSM since January, but not on the EDSM roster. I also see that it is shown as closed. How do I add my details to the EDSM list if it is now shown as closed?

Yep, exactly same thing with me.

You may want to check the spelling of your Cmdr name, otherwise contact Anthor.
 
Yes check the spelling, send me a PM with your CMDR you have signed with, and your EDSM Cmdr name.

You imagine that I don't do all the sheet manually ;)

There’s a DWE2 roster also on EDSM???
 
I've just searched "Nagi" and "Dr." and with both i couldn't find myself. Then I tried going with the roster number and there's just a gap where it's supposed to be...

Does the spelling match between your EDSM name and the name you submitted for the roster? If it's even slightly different then Anthor's upload probably discarded you as not-on-EDSM...
 
I'm planning on doing just that, in case. Hoping it has more uses than just collecting Thargoid samples.

What ship will you take?
At the moment I’m still thinking of taking my pythonx, but since I don’t beta I don’t know if the Beyond new capabilities will change that.
I’m confused over the new mining capabiliites. Not really into mining at the moment but I have a mining laser or two fitted to my exploration ships to be able to get jumponium mats should I lose my SRV. Is the mining laser now defunct & should I replace it with an abrasian blaster? Or does the mining laser still fulfil that need? I gather we’ll have a slot freed up so could take another limpet controller; already have hull repair & was thinking of a fuel limpet to help out anyone in need but of course we’ll have a fuel rat contingent in the fleet so that would be unnecessary.
Confused of Rasalas
 
The mining laser still works the same way it always did. In fact, even after using the abrasion blaster and drilly-thing it's still worth giving it a a once-over with the mining laser before blowing the thing apart (that's if you can find one with fissures, btw, cos I never did).
 
I'm also taking a python, which like anything else, gets an extra slot from not needing the ADS. I'm not taking mining lasers, but only because I fully intend to take a size 6 srv bay, and a full suite of weapons to become fighter escort. (They were all going to be lasers, but might take something else now to reduce my power draw so I don't need to fit a larger PP, and got an extra shield booster instead.

That said, I won't be fully finalising my build until closer to launch, but my jump range will be under 45ly, possibly as low as 40 in the end (he says fully aware that's a better jump range than a pre-engineering Asp).

Edit, I really wanted to like the Krait Phantom, but in terms of internals, everything's a bit small for what I want to take.
