Ah, but anyone who says they are Dark Wheel are not Dark Wheel.
So I am not Dark Wheel....or does that mean I am ?

That's why they need the amulets. They're like regimental coins. That are sold in the gift shop at Shinrarta.

And does that mean the Dark Wheel missions aren't really Dark Wheel?

Jokes aside, great story. But now had to divert course to Tau Ceti to chase generation ships, and after that to Tianve. Great... :rolleyes:
Pretty much my plan after nudging a few Prism related bits of tinfoil around if you want some help covering more ground
 
Commanders in the rift:

I am currently following the Heisenberg Bridge towards the rift (thanks to cmdr Heisenberg6626 for his efforts). It would be really useful to have a fully cartographed system with all available materials listed. Even being this one the best pathway found to date, it still requires some jumps over 30LYs, so Jumponium is required for mid range ships.

You can find the route here. The system I propose to fully explore is Myoideau DC-D c12-0.It actually has several landable planets, so I believe it is a very good option for this.

Any commander willing to assist with the scan of this system, please do so and report your research results.
 
The final and closing chapter of my Oolite Saga is now online. For the initiated this is fan-fiction, but it is aligned with ED Lore and may give you a few insights into some of the background to Elite: Reclamation and the pre-cursor to the story of the Rift.

I've only experienced and noted being in a system with clearly actinic lighting at 30,000 K and it was a class B. I had expected it to be 33,000 K and a class O. I've been in a few of those and they weren't, so I'd agree class O's can be ignored, until desperate at least. Also doesn't Wredguia bump up pretty close into bubble space, or is that just around Sothis?

Took this long to find in my screenshots.

For reference this is what actinic stars look like in game. Like being in a tropical fish store, must be cool in v/r.

I believe so. There was a lot of attention given to the leading space before the ellipses. It does look odd, doesn't it?

Turns out that Drew just uses better English than the rest of us.

I have searched the forum, but have been unable to find any information regarding the decoding of the final part of the message "Good luck, and … right on, Commander."
.
The old woman said " You’ll find the co-ordinates at the end of this message."
.
Question is what part of the text relates to the co-ordinates? IMO only part of the text " Good luck, and … right on, Commander." needs decoding to numeric values for the co-ordinates. I think that the part of the text that relates to the co-ordinates is " Good luck", which might give us the X,Y co-ordinates (maybe using the alphabet, or ASCII numeric values), and the "and ..." the missing Z co=ordinate. :S
