Ohoy!

This is a roll call! Are YOU daring and experienced in the ways of vaporizing your enemies from afar? Can you stomach the silence when floating in the vast emptiness of space? Do you breathe vacuum and eat asteroids? Do you know up from down on a screwdriver? If so... you may just be the one I need for my crew for Kronan! :yay:

I'm looking for a crew members who can shout 'AYE' to the following:
- You long for space - both hunting ships for loot, escorting passengers and general bumming around
- You can handle a RK-5 (even perhaps RK-20) and are willing to do so for the fun and skills of it
- You wish to blow up things using 300-400 ish damage guns
- You are often online around 18 - 22 MA time
- You are friendly, mature and fun to be around

I offer:
- The possibility to explore space in a mothership
- The thrill of space combat and looting
- Free space flight between planets
- Discount fares for friends and socs
- As well as further potential business options... to be discussed as we get going

I've already gotten a lot of requests. First potential crew meeting will take place tomorrow at 18.00 Ma time in argus. I imagine we will take some trial runs and see how it goes until the final crew is decided.

The rk-20 requirement is a little high, do you think? Otherwise, i would be interested. Very interested.

To be honest I do not know :) I have been away for a while, so I'm no up to warpspeed regarding this... but I've noted your interest. Thank you!

If anyone else wish to participate but do not yet handle the rk-20, feel free to let me know :)

note: if there is an avatar in game capable of maxing the rk20, i still haven't met one yet.

so good luck with that. :laugh:
 
Lets meet ingame ;)

lol why am i not suprised.

we have one, count em, one avatar in UU that's on the bonus but does not yet max the rk20. the rest of us aren't even close. as serendipity, engineering and bpc are side skills, old fap skillers that did alot of crafting seem to have a bit of an edge.

and well, ppl that chipped like kimmi. :p

Good to know... I believe I'll adjust the criteria a bit then :)
 
Very interesting!

BUMP!
 
Are you intending the ship to be good or evil in the long run?
 
I'd love to try out being space crew.
Lets get in touch when you are on Calypso :)

Hm, very interesting. If you would like a experienced shooter, give me a pm. I can of course also use rk-5 for some repairs in case they shoot my gunner seat down ;p

Beware! with the PvP talk you´ve done on the forums you might get shot in the back by someone. ;)

Hmm I have not decided yet. Neutral perhaps ;) We should definately discuss that in details when the crew meets up and gets organized.

Yes! Its mandatory that each crew member brings his or her homebaked cookies (no cheating!) and favorite soap opera!

We haven't met in-game either it seems :D

Let me remind you that actually using SK-5 tools give skills too, the skills on all the chips in auction have to come from some place you know ;-)

On topic, I might be interested to ride along with Sbi, subscribing and let's see how this rolls.

Come and try, i am not doing PVP talk on forum much but ingame :D
 
Hi sbi - basically I'm interested, yes. Have you got any ideas for a meeting time/place on Calypso in the near future to meet some of the candidates? Meanwhile a few open points (I like to know what I'm doing before I start doing it) if you don't mind.

(You may answer confidentially to me, or not, of course, depending on what you prefer)
Motherships obviously need upgrading for the perils of space, I imagine mainly speed and SI.
Do only the shields suffer SI damage or also the turrets etc, and what are the new levels of SI defense if you upgrade?
What are the increased speeds of a mothership (for faster journeys AND protection against sleip attack, although probably not against quad fighters)?
Are the turrets actually placed in sensible places on a mothership, or are there safe attack angles for knowledgable pilots?
Attackers have so much to aim at, maybe they can twist and turn but still fire at the ship. How hittable are vehicles like slieps when using turrets or will it be better to have defender ships (speed strategies may be necessary)?

Given the difficulty of reaching sk-20 skill level, I imagine recruits will be using rk-5s for a while, so it would be good to hire a few more to start and agree with the good dedictaed repairers on chipping up or so later for permanent jobs once space settles down a bit (or hots up) and some of the answers become clearer.

Karma: according to notes, good or bad depends on first ship the mothership destroys. If not too late I advise making a clear choice and making it so in a pre-planned fight with a '(bad?) friend'! (probably to be good, as I imagine successful defense will only then increase karma if it's good mothership destroying bad attackers, but I could be wrong here..)

I hope the above shows my interest and maybe value to being on your crew in the future :)

I'd be up for a bit of bumming around on a spaceship.

I can't guarantee times, and it's probably fair to assume my shooting skills aren't that high, but I won't need inflight videos and lap trays to keep my mind off the journey.

And if you switch off the artificial gravity also then that'll add to the fun. :laugh:

Sounds interesting/fun. Coupla questions/info you could add to the first post.

What skills do you need to handle an RK20?
Where does the ammo come from? our pockets? Or is it provided. (space is so new I don't know how gun access etc works yet)

Cheers it does sound fun though :D I suspect I'd be too noob to join alas

Wistrel

OK - I can handle an RK-5 - haha I thought it was a gun. Thats cool. I have a repairing device but really need some wire for it now >_<

If this is going to end up anything like RED DWARF, then I'm in! :laugh:

Well I'm Mark Rufen Power & I'd like to apply as a crewmember, as I'am usually on the times you specified.

I like all things space related & just to have that experience in my pocket, on a ship, gunning pirates down.

*cough Johan* :) Yes I can use an RK-5 also, let me know if I'm in, whilst I make cookies for the group ;).

AYE!

Ok, it seems like we have enough participants for a good crew for now :) I will soon send out more information regarding a first gathering... Perhaps tomorrow evening?

I'd furthermore make a short form for you guys to fill out to keep things a bit organised. I.e. name, soc, repair skill level, skype acc. etc...

Cya soon. This ought to be fun! :yay:

Hmm I'll think it over... main issue is to ensure we are able to speak together rather than write. Must be investigated :wise:

hmm I thought the force chat was where the communication happens... well we´ll see how this works out.
 
How about TeamSpeak to communicate?

Unfortunately I won't be able to make a meet-up on Thursday, but please don't take this as disinterest.
