The Good:
The Bad:
- Mining load out and support ship available for Fleet Carriers. More details to follow from Frontier
- 500Ly jump range will make Distant Rings© more accessible for Miners. Untapped hotspots, outside the bubble, can be exploited by your now-mobile Mining Fleet.
- The material for Carriers jumps is mineable. There should, eventually, be high demand for this, and hopefully a high selling cost.
- Mining Wings/Squadrons can have a mobile base of operations, next door to that Opals/LTD hotspot.
The Bad:
- The material for Carriers jumps is mineable. That's another material added to the list available from rings, which means there's less chance of finding the material you do want.
- ..........I really can't think of more downsides. Not yet anyway.
