Unique Station Tour of the Galaxy (Pic Heavy)

Thanks for posting the billboard pics, too! Those are always cool. :)

I thought they were really cool too. I spent quite a few minutes doing my best to decipher the fine print on the Lavian Brandy one after I made out David Braben in it. It's one of those finer details that just add that certain something to the game.
 
Oh this is terrific! I salute your thoroughly worthy endeavour (and will link to it from my original source thread as well as from my "Best of forum" thread).

Edit: just finished reading the entirety of this thread. Utterly wonderful, you're an adventurer/space tourist/traveloguer/galactic cinematographer after my own heart (I'm only kicking myself for not doing this myself). Wish I could have repped all the posts but the one on the OP will have to do.

Thank you for your kind words and the add to your thread. I thoroughly enjoyed visiting all of those installations and bringing them up to the forefront for others to see.

And also thank you for your thread that made this one, and future trips, possible. +Rep to you Commander! I literally can't decide which tour I want to take next. There are hard choices to be made but I will set off on that adventure soon so stay tuned.


Damn! Gotta spread some rep around first, but I'll be back.
 
Those facilities look incredible.

I wish they had a purpose other than just sightseeing. I would love them to be dockable and to have some kind of purpose, like being the source or destination of missions matching the installation type.

100% agree. I'm currently on a break from "Elite:Look at stuff" and waiting for "Elite:Gameplay". Still love Elite though, one of the best games I've ever played.
 
Nice work. I need to go on a sight seeing tour. These stations are way better then the Borg Cubes they have all over the place.

Yeah this is another example how Elite gets the reputation for being mile-wide, inch deep. All these wonderful stations and yet there's nothing to do with them. (Okay, a few offer a scavenger hunt type of go scan their data relay thing. But even that is simply seems to be simply a disconnected mini-game like something to do if bored.)

Nice pics OP.
 
Thanks Commanders!

I thought this thread was dead and buried. Thanks for breathing new life into it.

I had started another tour (Megaships I think) but I got sidetracked.........** SQUIRREL!! **.....or something and never went back to it. Maybe I will again one day.
