Explorer, space trucker, mover of things. Find me in the Bubble or in Colonia.
Veroklist is a bit quiet for bounty hunting, but next door Fo Hi has a compromised nav beacon and is under the same jurisdiction as Veroklist. Enjoy.
Attention commanders: the current community goals' station is an outpost, so there's no large landing pad there. That being said it's a good opportunity for pilots of smallers ships to shine (currently 800k Cr puts you in the top 50% of the bounty hunting one).
I bought and A-rated an Alliance Chieftain and tested it in the bounty hunting community goal in Narri. That's a fun ship to fly, but coming from a Vulture It will take some time to get used to the weak shield and heat management.
Didn't manage to get into the top 10 contributors ar HIP 33368, but I got promoted to the Tycoon trader rank. Great!
Made it to top 10% with 10900 tons. CMDR Harry Potter paid the system a visit and acted in the usual Harry Potter way by killing on sight anybody and everybody. Maybe it's the thrill of managing to shoot down an unarmed cargo vessel with an engineered combat Clipper, I don't know.
In the top 25% with 5000 tons. In the meantime pirates are active in the system but the profit is still nice.
The trade community goal in Lambda Arae was completed before I had a chance to participate, but the one in HIP 33368 is still ongoing so I went there with the Razoreater. So far ferrying about 2000 tons of goods puts you in the top 50% contributors. There's good money to be made over there, and the shipping lanes seem perfectly safe.

The combat community goal in Ross 310 has reached Tier 8, with just about 4 million credits in handed combat bonds this puts me in the top 50% contributors and will net an extra payout of over 16 million credits. Minimum payout is 1 million credits, so rushing there to hand even a single combat bond may still be worth it.

There may or may not be something weird going on with collision at the crashed Thargoid scout on Pleiades Sector LN-T c3-4 2 A (picture by CMDR Hilfy d'Anuum).
The Eclipsis Adder Tour is still ongoing, here are some pictures from friday's meetup at a Thargoid base, by CMDR FanaticShelby.

Now that we're done with Guardians sites the Eclipsis Adder Tour paid a visit to a crashed Thargoid tonight. Fun and exploding SRVs ensued.
Nice pictures of tonight's meetup, by CMDR FanaticShelby. I'm flying the chrome one in the middle.

There's an Eclipsis Adder Tour meetup tonight at waypoint 2, so let's get there.
Badly synchronised group jumps are the best group jumps. https://clips.twitch.tv/AgileAbstruseCobblerPanicBasket
Decided on a whim to take part in the Eclipsis Adder Tour. Now I just need to buy an Adder, outfit it, engineer it, and be on the starting line in less than two hours.
