Rescue forces have already been in place and from their convos they talked about some 300 people which may have been onboard of this lost ship. Unfortunately they couldn't find any survivors, but talked abaout a few (one or two) missing escape pods - so, probably someone may have survived this incident.


That is a standard random USS scenario that is generated in/near the bubble. If you spend a lot of time in a system because you do detailed surface scans of all bodies, you can get a dozen of them in an evening. Grab the interesting loot (will count as stolen), do passive scans of the rescue vessels for engineer data mats, and when the rescue vessels hi-wake out, scan their wakes for even more data mats.

If you are not interested in loot, shoot or ram about half a dozen of the cargo canisters, this will forward the scripted actions to the "canister cleanup" phase, and the hi-wake of the rescue vessels.

Just made it to Empire Rank King, and forgot to add logged 3000+ hours flying (i need a life) bought a Python should not need many more engineers materials hopefully that will lessen the grind. Will work in Fed Space until I can buy the FGS while the Python work is getting completed.

I love the Python. :D In fact, I'm flying mine right now. I use it for mission running and engineer goodies gathering. Fantastic multi-roll ship.

Yeah goodie gathering is one thing I'm doing with the Python should have started out with her but used the Cutter instead. A couple other commanders said that the Python was a "beast" a bad ASS Vulture when she first appeared but has been nerfed since, too bad. Read some specs from other commanders (other forums) appears to me they are trying to bring her back via engineers.

ED having a bad night. I got to the station for a mission drop of of biowaste from Sothis and there was no way to complete it so had to forgo 3.5m as the time ran out. Then I do another drop off, get paid for it and when I leave station it tells me I've failed it. Whats all that about haha :lol:

Edit: Oh and now, that cargo is considered stolen. Glad I noticed before I got to my next drop! Then got interdicted while typing this edit. Oh my days *facepalm*

Finally got another mission for Modular Terminals but my ship was too large... so I bought a Python and brought up the mission again but then it said my rep wasn't high enough. So I logged a few times to get another MT mission and it finally came up but from the same Corp and still had Rep low problem... :roll:

Oh yes. Engineered Python for the win. I can just imagine how powerful she would be if she hadn't been nerfed and had engineered mods.

I am referring to my main ship, Lady Jayne, of course. We are currently about 21k lyrs from Sag A*, and jumping. Will probably make it there in a few weeks. Probably would have helped if she wasn't wearing her mil grade and full complement of weapons plus a HRP. Oh well, at least we are prepared for any aliens (Thargoids?) that might show up and want to have some fun.

The Cutter is a good ship. I use Lady Krystin as an armed trader. But she's not as fun to fly as Lady Jayne.

Have fun, fly safe. o7

Finally got the Empire Rank Master for a Courier, but good lord, upgrading it is expensive.
