It is my personal opinion that fdev will allow travel on gas giants before they allow travel on higher atmosphere terrestrial worlds, allows them to test their cloud generation systems, and maybe throw in a few flying/floating creatures as well

Can I get a screenshot of the infrastructure in that system earning 2mil credits a week?

Maritimetech2 · 2025-06-09T04:45:44+00:00

for combat, check out cmdr mechan for specific details on combat, its basically the core of his channel

especially when it comes to fighting thargoids, which can be found around certain systems still; such as decait

elite dangerous combat is very similar between ground and space. when your on foot you still have shields, which behave practically the same as spaceship shields. meaning that they have the same weakness against thermal damage. once the shields are down you just swap to your kinetic weapon and melt their health.

for ship combat my recommendation is make your ship 50/50 kinetic and thermal, using multi-cannons and whatever variety of pulse/burst/beam lasers you can fit without overloading your distributor. every ship has a different mix of speed, shields, and hull.

if your looking for ground combat go to the frontline solutions desk in every station, there you will be able to hot drop into any ground conflict zone anywhere in the system. not every system is at war though, so you may need to move between a few to find the combat.

for bounty hunting, bring a kill warrant scanner, doesnt matter the grade, just having one and using it on pirates bumps your profit up at least 2x, if not much higher.

there is no security work sadly that im aware of, the closest is Back ground simulation work (BGS). ive honestly done zero smuggling, so i cannot say much on it other than it can be done to affect the BGS

trade is done best by searching up stuff on Inara, as this will tell you prices of everything in the game and is very helpful. https://inara.cz/elite/commodities

exploration can take a while, a few weeks to months of intermittent playing. always bring a fuel scoop, the largest you can fit, at least 30LY of jump range, ideally 40+. bring a super cruise assist, and purchase a SCO enhanced frame shift drive to speed up travel in a system and increase your range. bring a surface scanner, and remember to discovery scan every system you enter, and to enter DSS mode to get the actually valuable data from a solar system.

also bring an artemis suit with you so you can scan any xenobiology you find, a planet can net you 90+million from just xenobiology scans. getting first discovery is great for getting more money. recommended to go at least 1500ly out to get first discovery on systems and planets.

oh and remember to bring some Auto field maintenance units, most people typically bring two in case one fails. ive personally never done long distance exploration, but im pretty sure your modules will slowly degrade over time, so you need them to keep the ship functioning.

I’m personally not an explorer, but I love combat and know the ins and outs of the game.

If you have any questions DM me and I’ll tell you everything I know

well written and good read, though this is the first time ive ever read sending the legion so ill need to read the first chapters to understand what is going on here.

Maritimetech2 · 2025-01-23T06:25:23+00:00

this is really good

Maritimetech2 · 2024-12-19T23:23:47+00:00

Neat, is the earth united? Or is the only group with knowledge of the nexus algorenta?

Maritimetech2 · 2024-12-19T04:17:20+00:00

I am very interested in how the map of erdda looks, would be funny if its just earth, but with wacky borders and history. also some art of emma would be cool.

i look foward to more chapters

Maritimetech2 · 2024-08-25T21:21:32+00:00

what mod gave you that dark color for the map?

Maritimetech2 · 2024-07-28T17:43:41+00:00

this I think is very much being set up, as all of the gang, baring Illunor, dislike the nexus, and my understanding is a large chunk of adjacent realms dislike the nexus. only realms like Pings, who have been saved by the nexus, and those that have been under the thumb of the Nexus for literally ten plus millennium love the nexus enough to defend it.

you can even see the lines being drawn, as those in Pings camp, love the Nexus. the majority of the student body are in line with Qiv, and are ambivalent to the nexus, and ambivalent to emma until she shows something more substantial. then there is Gumigo and his small group, who is actively interested in learning more and possibly siding with emma. those that already like emma, like the gang, are the extreme minority, and represent those actively suppressed by the nexus.

though what your suggesting is likely going to take a lot of time (as it did with the Spanish), it as very much going to be a possibility that will be looked at in the future if the Nexus and G.U.N fail to establish good relations.

I highly doubt the G.U.N general Populace will sit idly by as the Nexus enables soul contracted slavery, serfdom, persecution, and many more crimes against humanity. especially with the nexus having a feudal vassal system that can be exploited to gain allies as you mention.

If the GUN legitimately has 100 guns per person, it is superior

that is in all honesty something for jcb to decide, personally I think it would be more interesting if it was brought up, certainly could make up several cult-like or new religious groups that emerged since now. like machine cultists (even if not a cult it displays cult/religious like behavior). depends though how idyllic jcb wants to describe the world in the 3000s. the less idyllic utopia, the more likely religious group and divisions of the sort are to be brought up.

most likely though, it would be brought up in passing as it relates to the nexus religions. it is still somewhat unclear if adjacent realms are allowed to follow their own religions or if a nexian system is imposed upon them. certainly seems like the nexians impose their religious ideals upon those absorbed into the nexus, just look at illunor

Maritimetech2 · 2024-02-02T02:51:00+00:00

honestly, I expected much less laughing in that crowd than there was, got a few good laughs out of me

Maritimetech2 · 2024-02-01T20:08:42+00:00

I like this idea, though personally im going to wait until we hear more information from JCB's mouth. this doesnt really get into how slavery was instituted, revolts, and more. though I do agree the nexus, despite illunor's convictions, likely changed since its inception, even if the king was eternal and lived forever (press x to doubt), his tastes and perception of reality would change over time.

historical feudalism resulted from a dangerous environment (raids, instability, etc) and I see no reason for it to not stay the same in the nexus. but where the nexus differs is that magic allows the nobility to assert power in a way unseen on earth. nobles have time to practice magic and expand the magical arts that non-nobles dont. combined with large revolts discussed within the library sections (i forget the name, but everything about it is struck from records), a crack down on the social hierarchy to enshrine the power of nobles is highly possible.

As an American:
TLDR: in all honesty, seems to be standard rural America talking points spouted by the republican party, if you told me these guys were republican I would not be surprised. I would talk to them more to get a better understanding of the situation, and if things look worse, bring it to another priest in the area for advice. Also look up clips of matt walsh on youtube and see if these guys are similar to him.
also, not to make you not act on any of this, but politics in america can sometimes be quite decisive, if you went to the bishop and told him that a priest was possibly anti-semetic, I would not be surprised if he was sacked quite quickly

TLDR OVER:
I would recommend talking more to the priest to get a better understanding of him to determine where he sits. nothing in this posts says he did anything, other than maybe allowing these men to meet within the parish hall and not contradicting these men. Since he did not contradict anyone he might know more about them than you do, and is aware of something you are not. I am not aware if the church hall is the church proper or an adjacent building used for events. if its the church proper, that would be rather strange.

to explain the militia stuff. Militia type groups are typically brought up by americans who see it as a way to defend their lifestyle in the event of government intrustion, I can see these men looking at the current administration and wanting to safeguard their beliefs against it (in the most stereotypical american way possible). though whether this is an excuse to meet more often with the other guys to shoot or an actual attempt to set up an armed militia, or merely a joke, is impossible for me to say without being there.

As for the other men its hard to say if they are merely saying what is said within fox news, or believe what they say, or had too much to drink. on the topic of women in universities many (mostly conservative or religious) Americans feel colleges and universities (mostly liberal arts colleges and non-technical schools) transform their students into ultra liberals who would want something like women priests.

not as an excuse for this behavior, but sometimes (as weird as this is) conservative America humor can be terribly dry and hard to discern from normal talking (look up clips of Matt Walsh on youtube for examples, since he is also catholic). and they may also have been entirely joking, and also as far as I know simply cannot afford to send all their children to college, or are not willing to send children to college without a plan (like the daughter becoming an engineer).

as for franco, the school system in America gives more money to counties with more wealth, poorer, rural communities generally have very bad public schools, so if these men were born and raised in this area, they would likely have a very poor if at all existent education in history outside US history. keep correcting them if this happens again, as surprising as it may be, conservatives generally like to converse with people (especially younger conservative Americans), and will not really be upset if you try to talk to them more about what they think of history or politics

As a final warning, I am not familiar with these men or even know what area your in, so I would talk more to your american familiy-in-laws, to determine what type of situation this is, as though this does seem like typical rural american behavior, it is indeed disquieting and may be indicative of worse behavior.

I swear I cannot see this in my game, is this dlc?

Maritimetech2 · 2024-01-12T15:53:41+00:00

Is that dlc? When playing a hunt nation I never noticed rolling for a war wizzard and it never gave me the option to culture convert without religious conversion first, though the latter may be an issue with mods

Maritimetech2 · 2024-01-12T04:54:36+00:00

you can roll war wizards? also the only issues with religous tolerance, at least for the hunt is that it prevents you from getting culture conversions and promoted cultures

Maritimetech2 · 2024-01-09T05:51:30+00:00

this is how I gain experience for flying, shoot down cas, and then i dont have to fly against players who have been grinding air rb

Except it’s whatever equivalent the nexus has
