So I gave Fehu a shot tonight, and I went from 61% Lord to 81% after taking a few delivery and several courier missions. The delivery missions were paying 800,000 - 1 million, and I picked up two 2 mil shadow deliveries...

So that meant the money was ok, if nothing Earth-shattering, but I have a feeling I will see VERY diminishing returns on the rank after a couple promotions... and having to cross around 500ly in a Python for these missions, it took pretty much the whole night after work.

If I could just find a good Empire donation system, I'd have bad carpal tunnel syndrome, but I'd probably be ranking up twice as fast.

@StaticRadion, please make sure your doctor gives you a good going over. I lost a cousin late last year to pneumonia , he passed it off as just being a bad cold. Deeply regret losing him, he was a good guy.

Raided the Exioce CZ last night, difficulty levels of Crimsom Electronics ships back to normal - got a few kills. Heading back there again by 1900 or 2000 GMT to pick off a few more targets.

Doing a few more runs for the blue haired one to get my Level 2. Seriously thinking of getting a Viper3 to help in the Exioce war and my PP faction. The Viper4 is an incredibly adaptable multi-role ship but I want that configured for planetary exploration for the meantime. Hate not having a personal ship inventory parts so I can stock up and just mod the ship on the fly.

Went to Exioce last night to a HiRES. Bumped into a nice fellow CMDR in a corvette (sorry forgot name, my short term memory is shot and I'll leave it up to you as to why this may be. I dont drink :) ) tested my new Python and decided I hate it. It handles like a pig. So following the advice of the CMDR Ive bought an FDL and will give that a go tonight but its short range has almost resulted in a call to the fuel rats on my way back home to Azrael. Corvette looks nice tho. :)

Did some trading with Mama Midnight and TORC4ED for a while, was fun doing it in a wing and chatting, much less boring (and more profitable).

Getting really pissed off........One crap night for instancing Etc........

And how comes the ship you have used before and have not changed anything decides to drop to the planet surface like a ton of fecking lead when you deploy hardpoints like you have done a hundred times before ??.....

Tonight = NOT impressed......

Agreed. Instancing was Shite tonight. And the only thing that worked well (except for Dawg being so Slow) was Navlocking to fly 130+ ly.

Ohboy. Attacked an Anaconda in a Vulture at 100% hull and shields and ended up just jumping in time to limp back with 2% hull. Bad day or these biggies really did become better.
