What was the name of that station that would randomly open fire on people, hostile or friendly, and no matter how it was configured it would just keep doing that?

Animal-Mother posted:What was the name of that station that would randomly open fire on people, hostile or friendly, and no matter how it was configured it would just keep doing that? I had to ask in chat but 6-24 maybe? e: The original 6-24 tower 6-24 began as a simple True Sansha large tower in QY6, placed to serve as our staging pos during the first invasion. During one siege, it managed to bag a sieged revelation using only its anchored modules. Through the course of the campaign, it became sentient and eventually went skynet, shooting every blue that came near it. Naturally this made it a hero of the swarm and it became the de-facto mascot of the Delve campaign. It continued to serve as a staging pos when deadtear actually logged in to use his gooncannon during the next few months of delve action. Unfortunately, it was destroyed during BoB's reconquest of QY6. A bit of goonfleet died with it. Although the tower was killed, the mods remained and continued to shoot anything that arrived on grid with them. Subsequently the mods were re-anchored and used for the new QY6 tower, reviving skynet and spreading its influence throughout Delve. The new 6-24 tower After the Band of Brothers headshot and subsequent invasion, a new tower has been anchored on the very same moon. The very same spirit that inhabited the original 6-24 is back and boy is it pissed; blues have been shot and bystanders are fleeing for cover. Facts about 6-24 6-24 doesn't care what corp you are in 6-24 doesn't care what alliance you are in 6-24 doesn't care what ship you are flying 6-24 doesn't even care if you're on grid with it 6-24 will loving kill you Otacon fucked around with this message at 00:34 on Aug 4, 2021 |

shame on an IGA posted:A straight line can be drawn between fake space politician Vilerat's real world death in Benghazi while playing internet spaceships, and Donald Trump becoming president of the united states. This makes it sound like he was signed in to Eve when they got attacked.

There are traps though, this ship for example. Looks quite juicy, buys for 570m sell for 1.75b, that's a healthy profit! But look at the price history, no one has sold a Kronos at that price ever. You would be wasting your time.

hbag posted:lmao aight Goons don't RP but put whatever you want unless it's a slur or Rick and Morty meme that we're contractually obligated to look down upon If you're going to do the market trading thing, it would be a good idea to leave behind a highsec alt in Jita (with good Caldari Navy standings eventually). But both characters would have to be omega to make that work, so first see if you like the game/the Imperium enough to keep playing. When you've made it into GoonWaffe (the authentication process might take a day or two, be warned), also see which group(s) or sig(s) you want to join, that's the best way to get guidance and stay engaged.

I think i'll take my next proceeds from skill extraction and start doing it. do your trading in 1DQ do not go to Jita. with such a small amount what you are going to want to start off with is doctrine modules. there are standardized ships that goonswarm uses (you dont get reimbursed for combat losses if you use a lovely ship). find out what modules are used on these doctrine ships than set up buy orders for that module. there is stuff like armor hardeners and stuff that you can trade for 50% markup
