THE LIDPAR ORDER PILOT TRAINING FACILITY:

SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT:
We have just confirmed that SashaWarlord and I will be proud Parents in about 8 months. Thus buzz and hubbub from our Friends, Families, and Medical Professionals have kept us very busy this week. Thank You all for your patience. :D

I've finally made it to lidpar (kept getting sidetracked). I was wondering if I could be of assistance to you in your most worthy endeavour, I'm a combat pilot almost exclusively with a little bit of exploration thown in. The last thing I want to do is step on any of your good peoples toes so I await your response (in the mean time if you could see your way to not shooting at me it would be most appreciated)

yours most sincerly

cmdr sniper fish
Gt sniper fish
time zone gmt/utc

ps. I see you have a fuel rat or two on your staff, I am very interested in learning the art of fuel ratting. ( I have an asp outfitted collecting dust)
Welcome Sniper Fish, I'll add You right away. Please PM our Fuel Rat CMDRs and expres your interest, and apply at http://fuelrats.com/

Is there anywhere near Lidpar I can get the A Class components to spec up a Viper? Can only find 3B power plant and thrusters at Carlisle, thrusters aren't overly important but the extra power would be useful.
We have apparently had so many new Pilots outfit at Lidpar that we are actually starting to run low on A-Spec Components and Chall Launchers!? *lol* Wow!!!
There is decent outfitting at Appel Hub in Murnakum, both major bases in Myrbat, and in the High-Tech system of Kakmburu off the top of my head. ;)
I'm a new student in Carlisle Station now. GT: LordBlackPlague.
Welcome! Got You added, whats your TZ?

I've arrived in Lidpar, blimey there's alot going on here. Well actually I'm now at Kaushpoos having taken advantage of the Cg there. Looking forward to getting the 3 mill from that I can tell you so thanks for the heads up.
GT is Skyn Flynt
Will get on later.
Welcome! Hope to see You later as well. :D

My goodness, We're so busy! :cool:

Hey guys. I would like to join ur squad Ive been playing ED on xbox one for a couple of weeks. I like to think i have a pretty good grasp of the game I can make my own way to Lidpar if this helps :) thanks guys
 
I think I'll be jumpin on too, if my Campaign buddy isn't on for some Halo.

@2High: Cool man, just let us know when you touch down in Carlisle. Take a look at the roster list on page 1 and keep an eye out for any of those names in Lidpar or any of the nearby systems.

Protip: Get xbox smartglass. Helps immensely when typing stuff in to the galaxy map or just chatting with friends through in game comms. (I personally prefer in game comms text chat as that doesn't block the scanner with notifications). Both gamers must follow each other on the friends list for this to open up on both ends enabling Text chat with other players without having to wing up or use the xbox snap message (don't know how many suns I've flown into answering messages, lol).

Anyways, I look forward to wingin up with you in the future.
 
Lots of help needed fortifying systems before the cycle ticks over. We need every able commander to help fortify our systems.
 
If you are tied to Lidpar and unable to fortify other systems before the cycle closes, please ensure Lidpar is fortified to 100%.
 
Fortify Lidpar:
If You are a Prenav Antal pledge, and can afford to do so, our Brothers and Sisters have asked us if We can fully fortify the Lidpar System before the Powerplay Cycle ends tonight. Every little bit helps! Thanks team.


FIELD TRIP: Compromised Nav Beacon

Sasha and I havd just dropped over 30 Million Credits (each!) into Powerplay, and want to generate some revenue to do even more. We intend to do this at a nearby Compromised Nav Beacon. If You have never experienced hunting at one of these, We would love to take You with us.

SPACE OPEN ON WING: 2

PARTY: Closed
(We Love You all, and we want to focus on training the two pilots with us; so We will g=have a closed party - sorry!)

Duration of Operations Expected: 6pm EST - 9pm EST.
(We need a few hours after that tonight to run Fortification Runs for Prenav Antal)

Please express your interest here!
 
@Kaze Hey man, I don't see my gt on the student roster, Im aware your not on often but sending you this as a friendly reminder! Thanks in advanced. :)
 
Need advice -- In my only Fire Group, I have two primary lasers, one secondary multi-cannon, and a secondary chaff launcher. The issue I'm having is that during combat, I'm able to wear down the opponent's shield with the lasers; however, when I attempt to fire the multi-cannon on the exposed hull with the left trigger, I shoot off the chaff launcher instead. How do I alternate between the secondary multi-cannon and the secondary chaff launcher?

On your Fire Groups menu, there should be a set of empty dots to the right of the column you're using. You're gonna want to set your shield cell bank and your chaff launcher on the column (Column 2). In battle, to access these things, you'll need to hold the x button and use your bumpers to cycle your weapons. You can try this outside a station, just make sure you're out of the No Fire Zone.

Cant rep you enough. Your training camp is amazing. Good work on everything. including making sure your turff is fortified but more so on the way you make the game inclusive fun for everyone!
 
Think i'll jump over after work and check it out, I am currently docked at kremainn in my newly fitted clipper (still deciding on a name- although it will likely be "the errant venture") she's fitted for minning at the moment but i'll outfit her for escort/fuel tanker services and swing by the lhs 3447 before I venture out see if I can rustle you up some recruits. Alternatively if anyone is waiting on an escort let me know and i'll do my best to help I should be in game by about 16:00 gmt gamer tag is Loki TDD. I don't have much experience with wing mechanics but I do know how to work the navlock.
 
If anybody is gonna be around later I'd really like to try out my Utopian Defender at some point in a Haz Res today :)

/me is too scared to take it out on his own...

On a side note what do people think about maybe setting up an IRC channel for the Academy? Might make winging up and co-ordinating game time a bit easier than using the board or the in game tools?

Hey Mnementh, I'll probably be on later, so if you see me shoot me a message. I'm currently in Tabaldak waiting to cash in my CG prize (7.5 million if I didn't get kicked out of the top 40% overnight). Once I'm done with that I'll be headed home to Lidpar.

In the meantime, check out that guide for Starfighters in the handbook and head out to Low Intensity RES and practice working with the feds. Don't forget your escape vector!! And keep an eye on your shields drop rate. Don't be stingy with your shield cell banks and chaff. Better to be alive and out of ammo then dead and without a reward. Had a wingman go down a couple times last night and it cost him pretty big. Never forget your basics!!

Also, to any of us Academy members who are part of Pranav Antal, there is a huge movement to start fortifying a select few systems this week. If you're interested in seeing your efforts have an effect on the Faction, now is a great time to start. I'll personally be working on trying to help fortify some of our much needed systems. Here's the list I'll be following:

Ewah
Miki
Midgard
HIP 108110 *if possible, I know its a pain, but we need it this time!

I'll be using the Mason build (D-spec T6) so if anyone wants to work on their escorting I could use the company. I've also found an interesting guide on the Pranav reddit (http://reddit.com/r/EliteAntal) that is for Fortifiers who want to make a little trade money on the side. I'll be using that to likely plot my route.

Good luck out there.

Greetings, I'm kinda new to the game, been playing a few weeks on & off. Would like to join the training & find some friend in this big galaxy. I have pledged to Denton Patreus..... but the game is no different.. I'm just wondering around trying to make money & learn new things.
