Right on Commander!
I usually fit a second milly laser on the rear, so I can use that when running away from the things :)

hehe, are you in the personalities.oxp ? It is one of the next oxps I plan to insert. :D I certainly will be at some point, as soon as I get off my fat backside and send the author the custom paint job for my neo-PCC (in full galcop naval reserve colours btw, so watch it :p ) Just hope your persona...

I am (unusually for me) carrying on from the normal cobby 3 start position. By now, on the beeb version, I'd quit and started again at harmless, simply because the challenge of kills wasn't there. Oooh, someone's turned up on my scanner, they're over there, must be a pirate, swing round, open up wit...

I think it will be offered again if your cash level dips below the threshold (just over 6000 I think) and then breaks it. Both pods oxp. and personalities oxp. also provide a chance to gain a trumble, just make sure you have plenty of BBQ sauce on hand. :twisted: There’s no need to drop below the t...

I'm arming up a careful selection of hardheads as we speak... :twisted: If there's a problem with the both the boa and BCC, it's that they're too expensive for what you get. The cargo capacity increase over their python equivalents isn't enough, and they're slower with it, without any real major adv...

OXP argument?

I have the bounty scanner, and the manchi OXPs installed,(as well as a few others), and bounty scanner tells me the manchi vulture is worth nearly 400credits, yet I've never been given more than 92cr for the kill.. what's happening?

Yep, with heat shielding, it takes so long to get hot enough, the problem is then that it's easy to overcook things. Out of 3 tries, I've succeeded once, failed once, and managed to overcook 7ly worth of Quirium once... Edit: 3 times... escape pod time, these things are just too hard to keep under c...

How long to grill a trumble?

Well, I got myself a trumble, and they're multiplying at an annoying rate, I did the recommended thing to reduce the problem, but even after getting things hot, there was no reduction. Any suggestions? Is it an altitude thing? Or simply not grilling for long enough? I have the heat shields for sun-d...

The other question to ask at this point, is what about those of use who don't drive a cobra? I have 140tc of space in my PCC, and I usually buy 3 commodities out on every docking. 35t each of computers, machinery and luxuries? Sure, load it up. On the way back, usually furs, food, textiles and some ...

Sadly it's the latter there JazHaz... Sorry mate.

I'll give this new team a season to settle in, and to let me see how they handle things. I won't comment on things until I've seen it in the tape (well, "in the flesh" wouldn't work for a tv show eh?)

Here's hoping it's a stonker.
