Jethaya, You don't need more than the Aurora. Lots of people have room on their ship and in an Org this big, you should be able to find someone that needs a crew. From 2 person ships like the vanguard and freelancer (which might benefit from a 3rd crew person to run the turret or...

I think it will depend on what you are using your "explorer" for. Are you looking to find hidden ships/threats, etc when with a battle group, therefore relying on strictly passive sensors, or are you going to be looking for asteroid belts, dead ships, etc where active sensors may be more useful...

Yakety Sax is definately one of the songs I hear in my head when playing with fellow Test members Here are a couple of others and

not Germany or China, but... http://www.it-isac.org/ or one of the other ISACs, depending on what you are trying to look at. They should be able to handle political issues.

Happy Canada Day!

One thing to remember is that the explorer ships may also end up being a very good command ship/awacs platform. Change out the sensors that look for minerals/jump points, etc to look for ships, etc, and you go from being able to zero in on wealthy resources, to being able to zero in on threats...

Correct. I should have said IF the freelancer still fits through the smallest wormholes.... My bad

In my opinion (which counts for absolutely nothing), someone who really wants to explore for the sake of exploring should have 2-3 ships. If the Freelancer still fits through the small wormholes (which is my current understanding), get that one over the 315, especially if you are a decent...

By itself, a large fuel tanker should not be able to abuse all fighters, but one-on-one, a fighter should not be able to survive close in - and it should be hard to even able to get into close range. Turrets, shields and main guns with some minimal maneuvering SHOULD be able to make it very...

I played with a starfarer last night, and honestly, I was not impressed. Yes, the nose cannons will kill absolutely any small ship it hits first shot, but if your opponents get close, you are doomed. Turrets (at least in the current iteration) are really not worth all that much. Lost a person...

My deepest condolences Black Sunder. Managing anything in this group will take a LOT of work... seriously, good to see Rock Raiders being a division in test!

Montoya, It all depends on how much money you want to invest, what kind of support personnel you have (just you, or you plus others), and what kind of quality you want out of the final product. I've seen good quality videos out of some phones, but if you are looking for image stabilization, HD...

Nice to meet you

Welcome Tobi. Good to see other newbies here (like me)

nope. my game package was the Taurus. The aurora was never one I was interested in. Miner/Hauler/Explorer is what I've pretty much always been interested in.

1) 325, Connie Taurus, Connie Phoenix, Super Hornet, Prospector, Bucc 2) I really want to do exploring. Aquila, Carrack? Not sure. Maybe melt the 325 for a 315? I do like combat, but it's not really what I am best at (twitch combat). I like the thought of doing some group missions/etc, but...

Greetings. Been a member of SC for about 2 years, but I just joined this org on the recommendation of another of your members (Hybus). You can call me Thal or Thalstan. I am looking forward to meeting some/most/all of you in game and in the forums. Thanks Thal
