Panzer, What ship did you use for th Colonia run? A Type 9 Heavy with a max jump range of 30 ly. I like it hardcore.

I would have jettisoned myself before I even got out of the bubble in a T-9. That's it boys, I'm outta here! I cain't stands it no mo!
As for Star Citizen..... it's tempting, but I don't want my first exposure to be while it's so half-assed. There may be fun to be had, awes to be had, but there's a lot of frustration baked in as well, and I'll pass once more. I've been interested in it for years, and I'm critical of CIG. But I plan to wait until it's ready, if that ever comes to be.
No, now go away or I shall taunt you a second time!

There is much to be impressed by with Star Citizen,but you are right Mr Bond,sometimes it's hard work in its current state. A T-9 Panzer???? Yeah,why not
EV's are the Devils matchbox.

I like reading your posts Chucky as I mentioned in another thread. It's a window in to the state of the game. Comments from folks like you, who I feel I 'know' in some sense, are more valuable than any from random dudes on the net. So keep posting, I'm reading For example I learned of the existence of Area 18 from your post, then googled it to see what it's all about. Looks really cool and I want to experience that! But I feel compelled to wait as I've said.

Enjoy the trip, Panzer. It was fantastic when I finally arrived at Sagittarius A*. The view is awesome, but the sense of scale even more so, for me.

Congratulations on getting there! A T-9 at 30ly? Well, that tells me your a man of infinite patience. Best wishes on your travels. Hahah! I remember back when I made my trip, before engineers even existed. My 30LY Asp Explorer had very long legs!

So tomorrow is the big day for me. I'll be leaving the Sirius system in my Asp Explorer and starting my journey to Beagle Point which is just a mere 65,285 LY away.
Wish me luck!

Whew. Better bring a sandwich!
Throughout history, poverty is the normal condition of man. Advances which permit this norm to be exceeded — here and there, now and then — are the work of an extremely small minority, frequently despised, often condemned, and almost always opposed by all right-thinking people. Whenever this tiny minority is kept from creating, or (as sometimes happens) is driven out of a society, the people then slip back into abject poverty. This is known as "bad luck.” -Robert Heinlein
