PampRats - August Exodus, The Jaunt to Jacques

PampRats - August Exodus
The Jaunt
to Jacques


Following the success 'Les Couches Spatiales Tours' maiden voyage on the Crab Nebula Expedition, our DWE 3302 pilots turn their attention once again to a journey towards the core. This time playing their part in the Jaunt to Jacques.

Each of the PampRats has returned to their Distant World ships, with some timely upgrades from Felicity Farseer to help them on their way.

Dangerous Beginnings

Upgrades complete, the HMS Aquarius B heads to 40 CETI to pick up her cargo for the Jaunt to Jacques. Unfortunately, a pirate CMDR had other ideas. Fortunately the System Police, in a rare show of urgency, arrived just in time to allow the Aquarius B time to get out of the interdiction - with just 23% hull remaining. "It was a bit hairy", commented CMDR Booster Woods - Uhura is going to have to get the welding torch out for sure. Uhura simply stated, "Oh no, not again!"

Made it to Jacques after a 10K LY jonk in one day. 320 tonnes of cargo off loaded and 18 tonnes of Jacques very own rare loaded onto the ship. Heading back to Deciat tonight. Route already plotted with 22 Kylies. Should average 23 jumps per Kylie taking ⅓ off the time required.

Drinks ordered at the bar for you all as you arrive. If you are t returning to the bubble for a second load there are plenty of neutron star and black hole systems to explore while you wait ����

Nice. I am using my Asp for exploring at the minute (lvl 5 FSD (51Ly) and am using my Conda (lvl 5 FSD) to do inhabitted space mission work and armed trade runs (400t cargo) concentrating on shield booster mods, reinforced shields (5a) clean drive tuning, overpowered power plant (8d running at 8c capacitor limits), as well as an enhanced power distributor and modified turretted multicannons and pulse lasers.

Range with all that is 38ly (40ly fumes) and no doubt could be much higher if I stripped her to her knickers for exploring. However shes running suited and booted and I am really enjoying the mean side of the Conda and profiting massively on her huge cargo hold and her ability to tackle almost any mission.

Asp is going on Jacques exped in Aug naturally.
 
The Goose Green arrived at Jaques this afternoon, I have 25 D. Kebabs left and one bag of OH (cockpit smells of sunrise on an ammonia world - I imagine).

Anyway, a few pics from the journey.....
