Is there a post summarising the Felicia Winters attempted expansion into LTT 4961. I was a dumb grunt in the fight. Don't really understand the nuances of the alliances forged and the coordinated response. Would hate to see it forgotten. Newer players might find it interesting. If I think of the teamspeak chats on Suzie's server that must have some fun strategising and negotiating on it.

Loved the reporting style. Good memories. Found some of the reddit posts. Good reading.

We could have chosen a more obscure bit of space for our initial base, but of the 3 places initially proposed, everybody loved LTT 4961. Scenic, lots of kit around, proximity to interesting places, etc. outsidefactor had concerns, but also a massive hole in his internet connectivity so was largely silent during the voting as I recall. I seem to remember him mentioning we should be a bit more out of the way, but, given the choices, it has made the game more interesting for us all...

Ian Stoffberg outside factor did warn us about the location but proximity of RESes to the station, the station to the star, the system to other interesting places etc. overrode his concerns for most people. Somewhere more out of the way would have been more peaceful but at the same time, we'd have never had the battle of DR Crucis, or forged such a strong alliance with Mahon and AOS without being stomped on by the Feds.

It turned out OK when there were lots of people supporting NULL. Now though, it's making it near impossible to even keep the home system.

Are any of you interest in being part of a coding sub-community of GGG+ One of the things I enjoy most about G+ and the communities that formed around Elite Dangerous has been the gathering of personalities that seem to share a lot of hobbies and interests. Many walks of life and philosophies interested in overlapping topics like music, tv, movies, humour, food, wine, etc. One of my hobbies has always been coding. The past is littered with 100's of started projects and abandoned code. Clearly, I haven't been an 'completionist' or 'achievement unlocked' kind of person in this regard. I guess in my case, I was not able to sustain that level of drive and enthusiasm for most of those pet projects. With Unity, I've found a system that allows me to express my gameplay idle thoughts as something tangible and I've started watching tutorials and putting objects on the screen and animating them. The results have been quick and rewarding and I'm starting t

So, in the spirit of Elite Stories, thought I'd share my perspective of last night.

So, in the spirit of Elite Stories, thought I'd share my perspective of last night. We had barely met and there we were suiting up and using our limited funds to buy guns, ammo and gear for the mission we'd been thrust into. It wasn't an honour we'd earned. Others had died, we were next. There were no reinforcements. Nobody was coming to save us. In fact, quite the opposite was true. We were going in to rescue a squad who were sheltered and taking fire. They had sustained heavy losses and couldn't hang on much longer. We headed purposefully down the streets, checking our guns and making sure we had our grenades and medpacks on standby. It was brutal, but we made it to the rendezvous, battling past waves of patrols sent to stop us. We were in trouble, but there was always a teammate to lend a hand or a hail of bullets. Somehow we made it. Learning to watch our for each other and keeping a wary eye out for signs of sniper activity. We scavenged more ammo and m

Unlocking Hera Tani

Unlocking Hera Tani This is just so pointless. 4 trips for no good reason other than waste time. It's probably going to take me 4 days. I can't imagine that the same people who brought my favourite game back to life could come up with such a useless system as the various engineering unlocks and crafting system that you HAVE to do to progress meaningfully. I'm just in a miserable mood. Sorry. God knows if I'm ever going to mine the necessary 250t of whotsits...
