Depends on how soon you want to sell him. HAC V would be a great start, and from there I would train medium pulses and Amarr cruiser V. Once you do that you train Minmatar and Gallente battleship V for Vindicator and from there all you need is large autocannons for a Mach.

Hi Aeth, just letting you know that if you come to ec- nowadays, i will be helping you because my alliance got resetted by goons. I will make sure they get annhilated. Im sure it will be fun.

So, we're changing Corp Hangars on ships in Retribution.
Why?

The short version is that the current technical implementation is an unnecessary maintenance burden; and we don't feel that the complexity of the design is justified by the value it delivers.

On the technical side, the same code is handling corp hangars in stations, starbases and ships. Given that ships in particular are clearly not the same thing as stations, it should not be surprising that there is a lot of horrible special-casing in the code to make this work. The end result, in this case, is a chunk of code that's broken in lots of different interesting ways; the fixes for which are generally mutually exclusive; many of which are effectively unfixable; and for which any potential changes are a QA nightmare to validate.

On the design side, the specific functionality that corp hangars are providing - allowing you to control ship access using corp roles - is overkill for the large majority of use cases; doesn't work consistently (the role checks are only applied to players from your corp); has serious issues with NPC corps; places hidden design tripwires everywhere (who owns the contents of a corp hangar - the pilot or the corporation?); and are in aggregate increasing the complexity of the game in a manner that we do not feel is justified in this case.

Blockade Runners are being updated to be immune to cargo scanners, and as such will always show up as empty on scans

Freighters will have most of their special-case restrictions removed: they will now be able to perform cargo operations in space, including moving items into and out of containers, moving things to and from containers in space, and jettisoning items

Dishonorable space hobos have taken residence in our wormhole. Should be an interesting weekend.

If you can get an entrance near Assah we might be able to help you do battal.

The Malice Energy Vampire bonuses are now properly working. (Clarification: The Energy Neutralizer bonus worked already correctly)

So yea, No Holes Barred is sieging my new corps poses 3 of like twenty so far. I suppose they'll eventually get to mine, which is annoying considering how much time i spent naming all the defense mods and making a starcraft battle scene. In other news, they brought bhaalgorns, I suspect they think we ran out of those.

If the tourney wasn't going to preoccupy this weekend, I'd try to batphone hatch. Who am I kidding, no one logs on.
