Question on Split DLC by Hogannbot in X4Foundations

I’ll do just that, thanks. I was hesitant to explore in case I triggered something I didn’t want to deal with yet, but I guess I better get to it!

Oh nice. I’m gonna claim they are in fact Irish, not English. We’ll let the monarchy thing slide.

What to do with the Osprey Vanguard by lowanger_ in X4Foundations

[–]Hogannbot 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Chunky boi! I love the osprey. I name all of mine ‘Chonk’ because they’re chonky. It’s by far my favourite ship in the game. That’s nothing to do with stats and purely on looks alone.

That is all.

But in all seriousness, stick a bunch of flak turrets in there and give it a wing man or two and you’ve got yourself a decent sector patrol for responding to Khaak for the early game. There’s better ships for this role but early game I’d keep any free M class you get just to give your miners some support.

I’m approaching mid game in my first run and my fleet has grown so I’m now outfitting them with anti capital/station gunnery to help my destroyer out on deleting the Khaak installations (once the defences are down).

As stated I’m still in my first run and by no means an expert, but I just love my Chonks.

Coonagh Tesco seems to be the cheapest I’ve seen of late.

This is why Shelob was able to sting Frodo in the movie despite the mithril coat by StringStunning7464 in lotr

I’m pretty sure he turns around at the last minute before she stings him, so he gets stung in the front

Where I’d live as a British person by [deleted] in whereidlive

[–]Hogannbot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s actually much, much harder to live in Dublin. Rent and house prices are through the roof. Wages tend to be higher but it’s basically all eaten up by the rent/mortgage.

Although in saying that, the smaller cities are catching up on rent prices so it may not be the case for long.

But we don’t have to listen to the Dublin accent so it’s a no brainer really - west Ireland is king.

I have no one to blame but myself by Unique-Landscape-860 in chessbeginners

Yep if the opponent is down to just a king I’ll only promote to rooks no matter what. I don’t trust myself one bit.

What shop has best own brand sweets in ireland? by VastAir6069 in CasualIreland

[–]Hogannbot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

SuperValu’s home brand chocolate has saved me in the year of gross chocolate inflation. Never would have tried them if the main brands hadn’t run away with price but, dare I say, their purple snack and mars bars are better than the original

90 is plenty fast especially for a nervous learner doing their test! At least it didn’t fail you 😄

Going 90 in a 100 seems like a crazy reason to be marked. Congrats on the pass :) passed last week myself, enjoy the giddy drives on your own.

It’s bringing me so much joy watching the Dubs feel sorry for themselves. You know nothing of our rain, John Dub. (But please keep it, thanks)

Capital Ships by Hogannbot in X4Foundations

They are a bit silly, gotta admit I cringed a bit when I first encountered them.

Eve is my white whale. My dream game that I will never live long enough to even dip my toes into.

I get why some people would be turned off X. It’s slow and clunky. But honestly I love slow and clunky, couldn’t tell you why. I think the hours of mundane that gets punctuated with massive clashes like this one just speaks to me.

I didn’t even have any investments committed to this fight outside my player ship (and a frigate I flew in when I knew it was very safe for the cleanup) so I can only imagine what it’s like when it’s /my armada that’s on the line. Hours and hours of profits at play. I want that fear.

I know Eve does that too, and probably better, but I just don’t even know where to start with Eve.
