    V.A.T. ?

    VAT is a sales tax. Sadly it has become more prevalent because it is unpopular to actually tax companies, thus the rich get richer and so on. Some of those ships are very expensive as is but basically the 890 jump was an extra $178 dollars in the UK, nevermind a capital ship.

    AnniVERSary Sale 2016: how much money have you burned?

    I did like the format so I could buy the ship on one day, have a look in the hanger to see if I liked them (for those hanger ready) and then melt them again if I didn't. So I did try the Gemini Starfarer although effective it has to many manned turrets for my liking so didn't keep it. Ended up...

    Why are ships so hard? (this may be a shitpost)

    The BMM is just a trading ship i.e. cargo hauler. (Ducks). The Universe seems to have loads of combat ships and loads of explorers but not enough prey at least looking at what people own. I am therefore not suprised about the lack of an increase for such vessels. The starfarer is close to an...

    Why are ships so hard? (this may be a shitpost)

    Having not been through an annual sale before, there are lots of ships that could be a nice addition to the fleet but obviously cannot afford them all. It is like being in a sweet shop and it is quite hard deciding what will be interesting to play! I would like to add the Genesis but will it be...

    Anniversary Sale Schedule

    I like the terrapin and I hope its good, at least the best small explorer but its laughably expensive compared to an Aquila unless its scanners are as good because it doesn't have any of the flexibility that ship brings. I see the carrack as much more self sufficient for long range missions with...

    Keeping Up the British end!

    No do not scratch the paint the ships are all shiny and new with just the odd scuff mark from the odd asteroid hit! Welcome!

    Why are ships so hard? (this may be a shitpost)

    The buccaneer for its price has a lot of firepower it therefore is not as resilient as a super hornet or as well shielded as a sabre (they are both more expensive). I have tried the Khartu-Al and loved the maneuverability so I deem the buccaneer being more similar to this but with more firepower...

    Why are ships so hard? (this may be a shitpost)

    Well done Sam! it is good to know what you actually want. I also can totally see the logic for avoiding multi crew ships since not everyone will be able to find crew all the time! I avoided upgrading to an Orion just because I like the prospector and doubt I will like mining enough to have...

    What is your current fleet?

    We need people to sell their Carracks and Polaris and get Endeavors and Hulls. Its a shame but because of the modularity of the Endeavors you cannot currently get LTI on a package without getting the whole manufacturer pack which is a shame. As for hulls I really hope trading is interesting...

    Tired of rethinking my fleet

    I kind of agree hence my hesitation. Maybe it will be in an LTI set on the last day otherwise no endeavour.

    Tired of rethinking my fleet

    I play this game and one way I choose to play it is to start from scratch. Forget what you own, given your current fleet budget what would you choose if you could get any ship at all. So for me my top top ship is the Caterpillar, then terrapin then Cutlass (okay after remodel) then prospector...

    Tired of rethinking my fleet

    One of the reasons the Caterpillar can do salvage is to at least to be able to sell whatever useless explorer ship they find abandoned for scrap! I can even see well equipped Pirate groups having reclaimers for just that purpose. No worries selling the ship then. Just like melting jewellery and...

    Sorry if I've been a little afk lately, but I needed a recharge!

    What with the takeover and worshipping hordes then the election it sure must be hard work being idolised!

    The New Sabre : Comet

    If you like the load outs of these variants one of the advantages of buying the variant is the gear i.e. weopons also get LTI.

    Joystick / HOTAS Table Mounts by MONSTERTECH

    Well it looks good to me, my warthog is still in the box I want to bring it out with 2.6. Sadly I cannot open anything on your website because at work but will check later. Does the video show you using it. Obviously main issue is how stable it is in use, how strong is that clamp. Totally...

    Esperia Prowler LTI $425

    The more I think about this ship, I have to believe the stealth must sort of work at least against stationary objects if the prowler is going slow (drifting in), to make this worth the cost. They also sort of do not want them to be the standard pirate gank ship for that very reason, so...

    So today is the day - of AnniVERSary Sale! (It rhymes, ha!)

    Well the cutlass rework has made me glad I still have the cutlass blue (well its the game package) but haven't upgraded it. The question is whether to get the red as well! I wish we knew whether they would be modular.

    Orion or Reclaimer?(I have enough beer for now)

    I picked orion because I now have CCU for one, even so I do wonder how many hours I will want to spend rock crushing..... hmmm. Anyways I think both are cool so I picked on looks. I think there are other solid options for cash making though, including the beerfarer and possibly even the...
