First impression of the FC (Spirit of the Age).
It's probably too much tool for me at this precise time but then that is also because I purchased the bare minimum husk. No services, nothing. Not even the cosmetics. So I can't cash in UC data, I can't refuel or repair. What I have done is loaded my tiny fleet on it, my trimmed collection of modules and hopped into a system around 150ly from Colonia. Got my mining ship out, done a bit of mining. I'm collecting anything I can carry. I figure at some point, I'll head back to a populated system and check out the mission boards to see if I can satisfy any of those mining missions. I'm no miner but I'm guessing the upcoming patch will make that even easier.
I can see with the addition of services I will be really mobile and so a return to the bubble will be on the cards. In the hour of owning it, I did wonder if I had made a mistake, I suspect that was the impact of looking at my bank balance which went from 5bn to 28m credits. I will keep it for now. I will enjoy 'working' to afford the services.
I'm considering an idea whereby I get the shipyard service and fill the thing with Sidewinders. I'll then post a notice on here to say that I'm taking off to plot up next to a high gravity planet. 9-11g I'll invite people to come along and we can see who can land a stock Sidey on the High G planet.
