Survival of the fittest. And to think we try to run counter to that with safety labels and protection devices. But nature always finds a way to thin the flock.
Too many Carracks?

Yeah well, I think people misunderstand Darwin's thesis. What he really hypothesized is the unsurvival of the unfit, but if that were true, how could we then have a culture of people eating Tide Pods?
But will they turn after they melt? I need them to burn. HahaProof that if you wait long enough, Snowflakes will eventually melt each other.
They will if they have a high enough blood alcohol level when they melt I would imagine.
People have to remember you cant really fly those ships solo, you need a crew and until we know for sure how NPC or AI is going to work everyone with a Carrack will need what at least 4 people to run it efficiently? This is the main reason I did not buy a large ship right off the bat, I didn't want to have to fly with strangers, once the game gets going and you meet people ya it will be easier but for now these larger ships may not be used as much as people think day 1. I could be wrong though the community in this org and game seem strong and to me that's what sets this game apart from others.
From what I understand the roles fragment so a solo ship you can do everything from your seat but it not be as powerful a set of abilities, whereas a multi-crew ship you have dedicated stations that are much more efficient/powerful. My assumption is you could fly to point X, park, run to the station, do whats needed there, run to the next station, do that, then try to do both at the same time... urm... maybe thats not such an option...
Well then, I reckon we need to get the snowflakes drinking before we melt them. Easy! Invite them to TEST.
My assumption as well. May not be efficient, but it would be doable.
Wouldn't that end up with a lot of yellow snow?
As long as its yellow and flammable, I'm happy.

Yup. It's noteworthy how they put scan stations in several ships (even smallish ones like Lancer and Turtle), and to use the full capability you need to use the station. I have said this before, but will say it again--scan capability is one of the most important capabilities a ship has. The bigger the ship, the better the scan, but the further you will be seen and scanned by others. So flying a big ship with good scan and not using that scan makes you into a huge fat target. Without the scan stations operating at full capacity, you do not see what is seeing you, which is a recipe for disaster.
