As per usual, prize awarded will be generated as the goals fill up, hopefully we`ll get a fat 5+ million creds for the slaves- easy money, get to it chaps!
Well as Oldie and I found the price for Imperial Slave at Cemiess Mackenzie Relay is lower than the galactic average so we were making a loss on each run :( not happy bunnies.
I think we need to go further afield, maybe we need to try Wakea as the price there should be lower according to Thrudds.
yea the price of slaves is high -and we make a loss on the 1st one, but the other is 100 cr / ton, not exactly enticing information :/
Worse still is that its the back end of the galaxy and only sells bio waste / alge... worthless
i was making a 4 point trip and making some cash, but not fantastic amounts.
CITIZENS ARE MEANT TO FLY
Description:
The Princess Lavigny-Duval has paced a sizable order for a new fleet of Imperial Clippers with the shipwrights of Nu.
In order to ensure the success of the project, the Citizens of Tradition will be working directly with the Gutamaya Corporation. Gutamaya has placed a number of orders calling for the shipment of 5,000,000 tonnes of Metals to be brought to the shipyard aboard Syromyatnikov Horizons.
An incentive scheme has been put in place to ensure that all traders are properly compensated for diverting away from their normal trade routes.

Reminds me of the community goal for the opening of the Gates of Ahn'Qiraj!
Indeed, purple lotus anyone, or a first aid bandage?
This event is nearly done and there`s 4 days to go!
When i logged off last night there was only 900k of metals to go, of the 5 million tons!
It didnt help being next to a system that is metal rich,(Facece) but its locked unless you have the permit!
Edit- Due to popularity of the event, its been stretched out to the 11th tier, so a fair bit more trading to go!

Gah, if only I had more time for gaming right now.
How much does an imperial clipper retail for? I should be able to spend at least a few hours before the 18th on this to get the 100,000 cr at least.
And assuming you have Baron level ranking in the Empire in order to be permitted to buy the Clipper.
I don't recall what my rank is right now. From memory it's one below Baron.
The clipper is 20 million but like Albert said, you need the rank to buy it.
It`s also 26% off for 14 days if you did the event, so its 15 million atm.
Both events are now completed, outstanding performance from the DMW + ED communities!
Description:
Information relayed to Princess Arissa indicates that criminals operating in and around this sector may be able to provide information as to who hired the Emperor's would-be-assassin.
As such, all combat capable pilots of Mictlan are requested to join the Princess in her crusade against the insidious rot that hides within the belly of our great nation.
It is believed that the forceful ejection of the criminal elements will result in furthering the investigation into the attack on the Emperor, while also helping to improve the lives of those unfortunate enough to be living in the shadow of organised crime.
In order to achive her goals before the most likely culprits have a chance to flee from justice, Princess Arissa is offering a series of sizable rewards to all honourable Imperial pilots that help re-establish proper Imperial order in Mictlan.

New Combat zone event
Senator Patreus has today begun the process of sending his agents to reclaim the debt owed to him by the government of Kui Hsien.
The Friends of Kui Hsien, the cooperative council that rules over the region, had previously entered into an agreement with Senator Patreus to supply Kui Hsien with the arms they needed to repel an invasion by the Federal-aligned Future of LTT 911 Party. Kui Hsien’s economy was devastated during the war with LTT 911, and the Friends now find themselves in the unenviable position of being unable to repay their debt.
Over the last week, dozens of local traders have gone to extraordinary efforts to stimulate Kui Hsien’s economy. Sadly their efforts were not enough, as the Friends of Kui Hsien still find themselves unable to meet the financial demands placed on them by Senator Patreus and Eotienses Silver Universal PLC.
As a result, Senator Patreus has authorised the Conservatives of BV Phoenicis to begin the forfeiture process. Imperial mercenaries interested in participating in the reclamation effort are being invited to sign up for active duty aboard Aoki Dock in BV Phoenicis.
Confirmed, war zone has started tonight (20/04/15)
head out there and start earning kills and creds boys!
BV Phoenicis - Aoki Dock
6 days 22 hours of killing
LET THEM HAVE IT!
Additional information
Combat zone is BELOW the rings, about 2ls.
So if you not careful, you`ll fly into the rings and take hull damage, thanks to Snooks and Arithon for this confirmation :P
Something to listen to when your out there...

Description:
Acting under orders of Senator Denton Patreus, in association with Silver Natural PLC, the Conservatives of BV Phoenicis are in the process of launching an assault on Saavedra Dock in order to reclaim assets currently illegally held by residents of Kui Hsien.
As Senator Patreus has authorised the use of full military force to recoup losses incurred on debts owed to the Senator by the Friends of Kui Hsien, the Conservatives of BV Phoenicis are offering a range of generous payments to all mercenaries willing to fight for his cause. This includes the opportunity for pilots to earn a significant set of bonuses for hitting their targets.

There are several orbital platforms and stating 25- 35 LY out of war zone, but their supply is dwindling fast, so best to do a uptodate check before you jump out. Also large ships can not dock with orbital platforms (Pythons FTW)

If you get your FrameShift drive upgraded to allow jumps of 19Lyr, you could make it in 6 or 7, but until you've got the funds for a Viper or Cobra, I would not advise engaging in combat missions until you've got spare cash on hand. Don't risk what you cannot afford to lose! Always fly insured and never sell your shields to make room for something else.

No problem, I have a Viper and about 1.1 million credits... it will mostly depend on how intense the warzones are... I've been dabbling in them around Duamta, and provided I am sensible in picking my targets away from the bulk of the combat, I am ok against cobras and other vipers. I'll leave the anacondas to you big guns :D
Its not that far to fly, once your here, let the PEW PEW LAZORS begin!
aka we`ll help you out :P
Fly safe!
Flew down during my lunch break (benefits of being able to work from home sometimes) and claimed a few scalps as a warm-up... but yeah i need to remember to check if the targets are 'winged up' as they seem to be scripted to ignore NPCs and focus fire on a player the moment you attack :D
yup, take care with them in a wing...
as they will say, oh look our mate is being shot at... HAVE AT HIM BOYS!
time for you to retreat, or have mates with big guns...
Seems the 2 top pilots in the current event are cheating wit 24 and 88 mill in bonds already. Next best is 9. https://i.imgur.com/hnzFsXn.png
Woah... I'm so naive. How on earth is it possible to cheat in that fashion? More to the point, how can someone be dumb enough to overcook it so much and make it that obvious? ;)
Anyway, thanks for your help last night guys... after the game finally let me be in the same instanced area -.-
I agree Albert, we all were there last night and only managed about 1.8 million creds in about 4 hours..
We were killing every anaconda that appeared and only got 18k(shared between 2) for a kill...either out kill scores are well out or they are doing something naughty!
THE ART OF WAR
Description:
Over the years Senator Patreus has amassed an impressive collection of private military industrial companies and corporations. As a result the Senator's interests are spread across the length and breadth of the Empire, positioning Patreus as one of the premier suppliers of Imperial Armaments in the entire galaxy.
Traditionally Eotienses has been left untouched by the Senator's business, but now the time has finally come for an upgrade. Senator Patreus has pledged to spend billions of credits in rejuvenating Eotienses's economy over the next month, with the ultimate aim being to turn Eotienses in to a high tech hub that will be the envy of the entire Empire.
In order to help facilitate the rejuvenation effort, Senator Patreus has placed a series of order which require several millions units of Industrial Materials be brought to his agents on Parkinson Dock. All citizens that take part in the rejuvenation programme will be well rewarded for their efforts.

TRADERS BEWARE
Merchant Marines Launch Operation Papercut
Reports coming in from Eotienses indicate that a group of Federal Commanders, known as the Merchant Marines, are currently engaged in a series of unauthorised attacks against Imperial traders in the employ of Senator Patreus.
In a statement released to GalNet, the Merchant Marines had this to say:
“The Merchant Marines have launched Operation Papercut. We plan to blockade the Eotienses system in an attempt to stop Imperial traders from supplying Parkinson Dock with industrial materials. The group fears that High Tech production could turn Eotienses into a catalyser for the Imperial war machine already fuelled by Denton Patreus.â€
“The Marines intend to interdict all traders in the system and thus halt economic growth. Traders will be given a single warning to leave the system. Any further action will result in more aggressive coercion.â€
GalNet reached out to President Halsey’s office to request an official statement in regards to the Merchant Marines' actions. At time of press, the President’s office had not yet chosen to reply.

IMPERIAL INVESTIGATION: OPERATION HR 706
Description:
The ongoing investigation into the attack on Emperor Hengist uncovered a trail that led to a bank account, set up under a false identity, by someone operating out of HR 706. The account wasn't set up by some amateur thug. They left no clue behind as to their true identity.
This could have caused a serious problem for the Princess's agents. However, in conjunction with other evidence, the investigative taskforce believe that the account's activity shows that an organisation directly serving the would-be killer conspirator(s) may well call this system their home.
Someone out there has the answers Princess Arissa needs. As such, the order has been given to forcibly shut down all criminal organisations operating in this sector. If the local scumbags want it to stop, they know what they have to do.
Emperor's Grace has reluctantly agreed to play host to the task force, who have established a temporary base of operation aboard Laming Orbital. Citizens involved in the ongoing hunt for justice should submit their Imperial Bounty Vouchers for processing there.

So after a fun night with Arithon, Albert and Ranualf I amassed a further 1M for the Imperial cause and had a thoroughly good evening!
The Wings function seems very well, done, but I appear to lack the keys on my HOTAS for it.
Still, looking forward to some good teamplay here in larger engagements!
Late last night me and Twisted found a Anaconda with a pain skin!
YES I KNOW, epic news!
So you are wondering what paint skin it was yees?
Well.... it was a pirate skin, like the python, but the square block belly of the Anaconda was red too
It looked pretty.... until we blasted into the void...
No, i didn't get a screen shot, neither did twisted as we both asked each other "did you take a screen shot?".. no ... FEKK!
There was also some red and white flame cobras too.
IN DEFENCE OF VOLUNGU
Description:
Imperial forces have launched an attack on Volungu. In response the Crimson Fortune Company have called for federal pilots to gather at Jemison Refinery to help drive the invaders back!
The fighting is sure to be fierce, but the Volungu Public Company is willing to pay for any assistance they can get! Allies, bounty hunters and mercenaries of all stripes are invited to sign up to protect Volungu from the invaders.
Bonus payments will only be made available if the Volungu Public Company proves to be successful at fending off their attackers, so independent contractors are advised to bring along as many friends as possible in order to ensure the Volungu Public Company survives long enough to see payment come due.

Bring a well armored ship to this one - I fitted military spec plates just before entering and damn glad I did because the enemy wings gang up on you.
With the wing I was in, I was the weakest target (I think), so they shot me up loads to 64% hull before I bailed!
Sadly the repair costs outweighed the monies earned.
Yes this is a full on military spec zone, even the small vipers and cobras are armoured to the hilt and take a lot of shooting to "deck them".
Twisted was advised to mil spec up, and yep they kicked his ass still but it kept his viper in the fight for longer.
Also he was joint weakest link (though technically 1st), as Tuna was in our wing with his new shiney cobra, WELCOME TO THE PARTY PAL!
There was also the "BIG SURPRISE" as we jumped into the high combat zone, the capital ship groaned and moaned into the zone... Having never seen this before, and being pretty close to its jump point all i saw was a dark cloud of imminent death, with the load "moaning sound" as it exited super cruise... I quickly reversed away (didn't want to miss seeing just what it was) and watched in fascination as it utterly leveled the playing field...damn camper it is, kill stealing everything!
Words of advice, do not go into the high zone alone... 3 of our wing jumped in, and there was 2 packs of enemy waiting for us, aka 10 ships!.. no friendlies!
After a few mins of getting our assed chewed big time, we bailed out into the low zone...due to said camper...
There`s a MASSIVE amount of combat, even in the low combat zone.
Both zones are target rich environments with only a few Anacondas in the high zone (camper bait), low zone is full of loads of smaller ships- vipers, cobras, asps and the odd drop ship and clipper. I dont think i saw a Anaconda in the low end, or if there was it was swarmed upon by the allies.
There is also a lot of the twin engined little empire defence ships, and F63 condors, they are a real pain in the asp... as the small def ships are like needles, and have a very small profile on the radar, WATCH YOUR 6!
The enemy are also fond of missiles, and every asp has them and uses them freely..
So think carefully of your going to bring the big toys out to the party!
Vulture and Python combo ftw then.
Looks like things are going to kick off in Quivira
I will personally investigate the rumors ....
Any Other brave (or foolhardy) pilots wishing to look this up are advised to head to godel dock..
Further info to follow
There is a WAR going on in Quivira
BUT
Its broke, the 2 opposing factions are flying past each other waving to each other....
The event has 272 people handing in... zero bounties...
We jumped into the war zone as a wing and shot several of the opposition, and got zero bounties awarded...
its broke :/
PROTECTING AGAINST PATREUS
Description:
Senator Patreus has declared war on the system, for failure to pay credits we didn't even owe.
We knew this day would come, and we have a plan! Even now civilians are being moved to secure locations, and ships are being scrambled to intercept enemy fighters before they get any deeper into our airspace.
Trouble is, it's not enough. If we don't manage to slow Patreus's attack dogs down, we'll all be dead or sold off as slaves within a week.
This is a plea to any sympathetic pilots who may have happened to come our way. The people of Quivira need your help, Commander! We can't pay much, but we'll give everything we've got left if it'll just buy us a few more days to fully secure our stations.

Tour of Frontier Systems Set to Begin Shortly
Despite a rather sceptical response to the President’s planned tour of Federal frontier systems, particularly the bizarre choice to visit 78 Ursae Majoris (a system which overwhelmingly voted to leave the Federation nearly two months ago), the President’s office has announced that the series of visits with local leaders will go ahead as planned.
The following systems have already been announced as being part of the President’s trip:
Hip 53688
Tinia
78 Ursae Majoris
Su
Furuhjlem I-645
Saga
Delphin
Nanoman
Coriccha
Ross 860
Another dozen systems are expected to be added before the President sets off on tour later in the week
Is he going to them in order or is it random?
Is he going to them in order or is it random?
I dont know...
The only way to find out is to go to said system, look about and look about for / inspect contacts of any imperial highness vessels...

Prism Senator Summoned to Achenar
Senator Kahina Tijani Loren’s Imperial Courier was seen departing early morning local time from the Avalon shipyards. It rendezvoused with The Imperial Interdictor Atticus, Admiral Brice last known to be in command.
The convoy is believed to be enroute to the Achenar system.
According to the Imperial Herald, Senator Loren is “being hailed as a true daughter of the Empire, and assigned the rights and responsibilities as appropriate to her rank.â€
Quite what this means is not clear, even to seasoned Imperial watchers.
Senator Loren’s political leanings are even less clear. She is reportedly in favour of slavery, having been quoted as saying “Slavery is a safety net, it ensures nobody can starve or fall into poverty.â€
She is also clearly prepared to use violence to achieve her aims â€" as revolutionaries on her home world of Prism were summarily executed after she returned to power.
By contrast she seems to be in favour of closer political ties with the Federation and the Alliance. Her recent trip to the Sol system was either a carefully orchestrated political gambit, or just happy chance. Either way, her positive profile with in the Federation is certainly a factor.
Senator Loren was involved in a wide-spread space battle during the reclamation of the Prism, which may have influenced her views on the effectiveness and desirability of major naval engagements
CULTIVATING THE CORN - C O M P L E T E D -
Description:
The newest rejuvenation project to hit the OLD World has been announced, and this time it's the Green Party of Diso who have stepped up to the challenge of making its home a pleasant (and profitable) place to live.
As most traders are well aware, Diso is famous for its Diso Ma Corn. A hearty, healthy, tasty plant, that covers itself in a light dust which when snorted produces an intense but brief feeling of contentment and wellbeing. Currently, Diso Ma Corn can only be (cost-effectively) grown on the planet of Birmingham. This is due to a unique collection of nutrients found in the planet’s soil, combined with the near-constant bombardment of the planet by solar waves being ejected from Diso itself.
Now the Green Party of Diso is hoping to capitalise on its unique cash crop by increasing the output of Birmingham’s Ma Corn plantations. To do that, the Green Party has placed orders to the tune of 15 million tonnes worth of Machinery, in particular the Green Party are interest in purchasing a large quantity of Atmospheric Processors, Crop Harvesters, Power Generators and Water Purifiers.

We have at 78 Ursae Majoris 14,000Ls out at Townshend Hub, there are two community goals.
(1) Sign up to kill wanted folk in the system. Very profitable, as you get the usual high bounty AND a big fat pat cheque at the end of it.
(2) Sign up to fight in the conflict zone near Townshend, killing Sobek Boys for Alioth Independents. Lower bounty, but many more targets. All the ducks in one place.
I've signed up for both. Why take one mission into the air-lock, when you can shoot-n-go?
QuoteExcitement is in the air in 78 Ursae Majoris, as millions of residents have begun preparing Seddon Gateway for the arrival of Federal President Jasmina Halsey. The exact date of the President’s arrival has yet to be announced, but residents haven’t let that stop them from arranging a week of festivities and cultural displays aboard the station.
Another group preparing for the President’s visit is the Alioth Independents, who have today announced that they will be launching an initiative to increase security in the local cluster ahead of President Halsey’s visit.
Andrew Bailey, the Mayor of Townsend Hub and local leader of the Alioth Independents had this to say about the new initiative:
“We are very conscious that once President Halsey arrives, the whole galaxy will have its eyes on our little system. 78 Ursae Majoris has been nothing but peaceful and productive since electing to join the Alliance and the Alioth Independents will do everything in our power to ensure it remains that way throughout the President’s visit.â€
“Firstly, we will be running a cluster wide security campaign from Townsend Hub. As part of which, agents of the Alioth Independents will be offering a range of bonuses to bounty hunters who help clear out any unruly criminal elements in the sector.â€
“Secondly, members of the Alioth Independents and our allies will be launching a military campaign to finally rid the cluster of the criminal cartel known as the Sobek Boys. Military capable Commanders interested in assisting with the campaign can likewise signup for active duty aboard Townsend Hub.â€

PREPARING FOR THE PRESIDENT
Description:
President Halsey is planning to arrive any day now, and it's important that hervisit goes off without a hitch.
Acting under advisement of Alliance Prime Minister Edmund Mahon, Mayor Bailey has ordered an increase in security throughout the sector, until such time as the President has passed out of Alliance space.
To help facilitate the increased security requirements, Pilots Federation members in good standing are being asked to assist Alliance law enforcement officers in their duties. As an incentive, the Allioth Independents are offering a bonus reward scheme which is open to all eligible pilots who sign up to act as deputies during this tense time.

Description:
Federal pilots and trusted allies, today we call on you to assist the Azaleach Partnership in the search for Starship One.
One last contact with the President came from the XX system, just 75 light years from our current position. Unfortunately, information provided by the Sirius Corporation and Core Dynamics suggests that Starship One could now be anywhere within at least a 200 light year radius of Azaleach.
Until such time as we have received confirmation that the President is alive and well, all search and rescue teams are being asked to thoroughly inspect every system in the sector. Any relevant scan data should be delivered to the search co-ordinators at the Universal Cartographic station aboard Leoniceno Orbital. It is hoped that Universal Cartographic will be able to use any anomalies that may have appeared since the last scan of the area to determine the whereabouts of Starship One.

For community goals like these, do you multi-ship owning moguls keep one outfitted for exploring/scanning or do you just slap on a better scanner module as and when its needed? I imagine with modules now selling at a loss that it'd happen less. Its a shame you can't warehouse modules/weapons like you can ships.
Quote from: ZigZag;399925For community goals like these, do you multi-ship owning moguls keep one outfitted for exploring/scanning or do you just slap on a better scanner module as and when its needed? I imagine with modules now selling at a loss that it'd happen less. Its a shame you can't warehouse modules/weapons like you can ships.
They reversed that decision about making modules depreciate in value by 10% on sale for the time being. Wasn't so popular with the masses it seems.
I think warehousing parts would be awesome. There is a work around for that, buy a ship and equip on it all the parts you commonly use. Park it a a station you call home and when you need a part, swap ships in the shipyard, sell the part off your spares and repair ship and then when you swap back to your original ship you can still buy the part back.
Except storing your class 4 weapons would be a little expensive.
For most missions i just use the Anaconda, esp for combat/trade
For exploration i had an asp, but i vendored it and bought a Dropship.. for rep grinding...i sold that today, so i have a fairly healthy bank balance.. although we`ll be waiting to see just what else the mission provides (15% off the asking price of the asp).
I could fit the Anaconda out for exploration (strip it down) to gain ++ jump distance, and have a class 5 fuel scoop for a quick refil, but exploration is ...not that exciting unless some pirates decide you look tasty..
SUPPLYING THE MATERIALS OF CREATION
Description:
His exalted visionary, Simguru Pranav Antal, has declared that for Utopia to ascend to true greatness, we must first descend to the lower worlds so that we may grant the gift of insight to our unenlightened selves.
Even now, half a million members of the Utopian Project are tolling away at the Singuru's grand design, striving to make manifest the perfect future for all of mankind.
You may ask yourself, what can I, unenlightened though I am, do to help make the perfect future manifest? The Simguru's answer is simple. Help supply the Utopian Project with the raw materials of creation, and in return, you will most certainly share in the abundance that is made manifest through the Simguru's exalted will.
