    MULE! Looks like a handy vehicle for those bunkers

    That, the grey "band" above where the ramp closes, grey accents\panels behind the figure on the left, and some of the internal features were what made me think it was a cutlass, but the ramp is wrong, and if this altered ramp is part of a planned change to the ship, it looks like transporting a...

    MULE! Looks like a handy vehicle for those bunkers

    I've been trying to work out which ship is being loaded in this image for a while: My best guess (closest existing ship I could think of) is that it is a cutlass, but the ramp is wrong - At present the cutlass has a "flat" ramp, whereas this image has a ramp with "sides". If it is a reworked...

    Caterpillar internal rework on the way?

    With the upcoming cargo refactor, and work on making the mass of cargo affect ship flight models, it looks like a rework of the Caterpillar internals may be planned\in progress. Looking at a post by CIG staff on Spectrum...

    Invictus / DefenseCon - What did you pick up or change?

    If you melt something you only get the amount paid (cash or credits) returned as store credits, but I was wondering if the "re-buy" (buy back) price for a ship or pack increased if the cheaper "warbond" version was the original item: Mule\Cutlass pack is $120 Warbond, or $140 non-warbond: If the...

    Invictus / DefenseCon - What did you pick up or change?

    With packs such as the mule\cutlass black ones: If you buy the warbond version and later melt it, is the buyback price the warbond or non-warbond amount (I know insurance duration shouldn't change)? Also, does the buyback price on warbond ships go to the "full" price if you later melt them, or...

    Invictus / DefenseCon - What did you pick up or change?

    Well, I should know when concierge find out, but that involves me making the effort\remembering to check those RSI emails... Looks like I'll be grabbing a few more event CCU's once they all return to store - I really wish you could buy multiples of a CCU (as well as multiple of a CCU to same...

    Vulture at DefenseCon

    That's a good CCU to pick up... The ship should release by the end of the year, with most likely a $10-$15 price increase, improving the CCU's value for chains - Instead of saving $10 as you do now, it will be a $20-$25 saving once Vulture releases. I'm planning to grab a few more tomorrow (I...

    Invictus / DefenseCon - What did you pick up or change?

    Out of curiosity, how long after Invictus ends are the 3 new releases (legionnaire, Scorpius, Mule) likely to be in the store (normal or concierge)? I'd like to pick up some\pick up CCU's for them, but don't want to divert money that could be better used for invictus CCU's if those 3 ships will...

    Vulture at DefenseCon

    I had a look at the Vulture yesterday. While I knew it would have large "arms" at the front, for some reason they seemed much bigger that I was expecting.

    Invictus / DefenseCon - What did you pick up or change?

    It's the Herald, sadly - $80 WB CCU value, so ROC-DS may finally have a use - as start point for WB CCU.

    MULE! Looks like a handy vehicle for those bunkers

    I like the unofficial confirmation that the Caterpillar will soon have the side doors able to be lowered to the ground (From memory they only fold down to floor level of cargo bays) so ground vehicles can be loaded onto Caterpillar - I'd seen the picture previously, but it didn't register until now.

    Friendly reminder that warbond CCUs are a thing

    No worries - I got a little bored and came up with this table which may be a better option for planning (concept options not included if the same price or higher than "limited" ships, concept and limited are not included if same price or higher than permanent ones) - "concept" comes with greater...

    MULE! Looks like a handy vehicle for those bunkers

    I wonder how the MULE will go with the 2SCU boxes loaded in front, as they will (should) fit inside the arms, just sticking further forward. I'm also curious as to whether the "release" price will be the final price, or if they will increase the price once the cargo refactor comes in and the...

    Friendly reminder that warbond CCUs are a thing

    I had a feeling that would be the case... Now I need to decide whether to pick up some C2 CCU's when they return at the end of Invictus. I had a few $10 gemini-Valkyrie that I picked up earlier in the event, and while the C2 CCU offers better value ($5) over the Valkyrie CCU, it has a higher...

    Friendly reminder that warbond CCUs are a thing

    Is it wrong to say that I wish this was a $20 savings CCU rather than a $30 savings one? With the $30 savings offer we have, the cheapest options are $20 from difficult to get\CCU to ships (Phoenix or Glaive), or "concept" ships whose price may increase before CCU is applied, decreasing value...

    Any reason not to apply this CCU chain?

    Personally, I'd hold off on this, being that the final ship isn't flyable yet. At present, I'd suggest that on the final day(s) of Invictus that you Pick up a $5 CCU from something like the Cutlass Blue to Constellation Taurus, leaving a large gap from the $90 Hull A to the $175 Cutlass Blue...

    Last call to unmelt your Scorpius CCUs

    Yes... I'll probably end up grabbing one to the Apollo Triage. Slightly offtopic, but what's the difference between the 2 Apollo's (Medivac mentions better armor and dual missile racks - Is this the only difference and the internals are the same)?

    Last call to unmelt your Scorpius CCUs

    Price seems to have gone from $220 to $240, so a $20 jump. Edit: There also seems to be a limited time offer of a $220 WB CCU as well with 10 year insurance.

    [CLOSED] tons of Scorpius CCU before price jump in 2 weeks.

    I just realised I forgot to leave a "thank you" here, so... Thank you for the CCU and the prompt service. As an aside, the price just jumped from $220 to $240.

    Friendly reminder that warbond CCUs are a thing

    I did notice the loaner C8x in my hangar seemed to accelerate off Crusader quicker than I expected when I tried it yesterday (although at the time my only comparison was visiting there in a RAFT months ago, so didn't feel I had anything for use as a valid comparrison), but trying the same with a...
