Wingit, nice shots! You should include some of yourself making flotsam out of the Guristas! Or Iron playing bumper cars.

IMO, the Green Goblin looks like it should be called the Gigantic Metallic Flying Brain.

How did you get to BC already? Man, I am slow.

Thanks Mike!....say, to celebrate Qba's recent acquisition of his new BC (ABX's first)..I took a few screenies of one of it's first test runs...pics follow:

First...the gal on the billboard seems impressed!

Next...a head-on shot!

And Finally...some thoughts on the aesthetics of Gallente ship design!!!

ROFLMAO! From that angle, it looks like the face of a mean old guy...

Very nice shots.

Fantastic!....which one?...inquiring minds want to know...

sorrow · 08-19-2005, 11:07 AM

The caldari BC the Ferox would be the fastest for me to get into. but i'm actually thinking i may got the longer route and train up my minmatar skills... which would take me a lot longers before i can use the minmatar Cyclone.... not sure though

I think i'd enjoy the cyclone or the ferox so i'm not sure what i'll do.

sorrow · 08-19-2005, 11:29 AM

Something i found to be interesting. I'm sure i don't know all the full uses of it, and its not something that will train your skills in game for you but it helps with planning and info.

I like the Cyclone...prejudice I guess

Underwater Mike · 08-19-2005, 12:40 PM

Go for the Ferox. That's my plan.

This weekend is nothing but training all the learning skills to lvl 4.

Question #1....what mounts 6 mining lasers and can fill a Badger in 15 minutes???

Answer: Qba's new ride!...wait til mining night...

Question #2, What makes it look small???

Answer: an "Obelisk" freighter, a rare example of which is seen moving through Jita System below...a virtual city....

Qba73 · 08-20-2005, 06:05 AM

Great pics wingit, oh and BTW i figured out how to use 7 miner 2's

Rick_EE · 08-20-2005, 03:53 PM

I have an idea for next mining day.

I have been mining at todaki which is loaded with massive scordite. In high sec space, that seems to be manking the most money.

However you have to go to Jita to get a good price. A badger mk2 with 3 expanders should get over a mil a load.

Everyone with an industrial bring it an park it there. Come back with your other ships. When the mining is done, everyone start hauling. In the end, I think that we will get the most isk for our time.

When I have been mining there by myself, I can make a mil in 1:15.

What do you guys think?

Unless we think we are ready to venture into lower sec space.

Speaking for myself, it sounds good...let's see if we have a concensus. I am also open to lower sec space if it means better ores as long as we have dedicated security arrangements. I will pick up a Badger II and expanders and scrap or sell my Badger 1 (unless another member needs it), as I believe the better tech will be a better payoff in the long run.

Are you suggesting Rick that we park our industrials in-system and go back for miners with shuttles?...that's the way I am reading you.
