Thanks for the post Calico. I really love the game, but I think I got the "trade burnout" I was warned about. I should have taken other CMDRs advice in TS to hold onto, or save a fighter for this very reason.

Hey, wanna hunt some pirates together? I got a great system with 5 RES sites and a station in the same orbit that have Pythons regularly to blast!

I'll grab me a (scratches head...that "other" fighter...the small Cobra MK III one) and join you!

Again thanks for the post...I'm off to the Shipyard!

Day 33 - Lave Station in Lave system
Been doing some exploring of the systems around to fill up my personal database, some trading and some bounty hunting at Lave Nav Beacon.
Met Cmdrs Kilo Hoku and The Negative Zone in Leesti near George Lucas station.
Making some doe to upgrade the Cobra and raising my reputation with the Alliance.

Posting reports and bounty claims in the Tanmark System, currently tiered along with the upper 40% with only a few hours devoted towards dropping these pirates into the sun.

Met a few CMDRs while working, Juliet, Sparkjaw, and one more whom I can't remember the name.

Seems CMDR Juliet and his/her wingman ( the unnamed one ) had some issues with their targetting computers which caused me to interdict Juliet and perform a mandatory scan, but I simply escorted the CMDR to the nearest port and they settled their file with the Pilot's Federation.

Refueling and servicing the Viper while I grab some shut eye, tomorrow's going to be one hell of a day.

Just ditched my Sidewinder and now outfitting a brand spanking new Adder (after a lucrative smuggling mission to bring some Slaves in Ross 145 :D ).

Just kitted out an asp and am now heading off to Sagittarius A. I'm currently just 1000 ly from sol heading towards the centre of the galaxy.

Since I'm just starting out, doing contracts, though i think my last one was a bad choice, since i seem to need to go halfway around the galaxy and back to get non-lethal weapons for the feds.

On the other hand, i only crash every other internal dock, and quite a few are just docking pads on the outside, which is nice. harder to crash into.

Docking's a lot easier than it was in the original... If you're using mouse & keyboard, I'd recommend a HOTAS or a Stick... at the very least a 360 controller.

Or do what I do, use a super cheap joystick like the Logitech Attack 3 ( like.. 10 dollars ) and you're mouse for throttle/yaw and Voice attack for module activation and such.

Can't tell you how much a flight stick helps, doesn't have to be a stupidly expensive one, you just need a stick with four buttons ontop for the directional thrusters.
