Knighttom's page

so where is a good site to keep track of what is currently good to mine .

I think the Seven Swords Ltd corp has been reformed after its brief demise. Have I seen you in a Paizo chat channel the past few days? :)

when i have been on i havent seen any one in the seven swords chat channel. i have seen two names from there from time to time clovis and tib. on during the weekends at times when im functional.

yea decided to try veld today was making more than enough to hook me on it for the rest of the day and then go out and spend money to get mod strip miners and the crystals to mine it.
plag i was making around 395k per trip and veld i was making alittle over 500k per

sheesh tried to mine omber today to see if it was more profitable than plag .. gah have to mine more of it to get the same amount.

testing testing.

well started to play again a little bit.
wanted to see who all was still around. that is if anyone looks.

ouch

Based on the office leases, certain decisions will have to be made by the latest of the 11th of October.

Hopefully I'll hear from as many of us as possible this week (i.e., by about the 4th or 5th of October)...

we have office leases.

i may or may not be able to join. it is the last week of the month and the last week of the quarter so my place of work is trying to ship out as much as possible . i might end up working till after midnight.
last few weeks i have been busy and sick. just starting to get over asthmatic broncitis. twas no fun . from what i understand my doc who thinks im a bit stubburn decided he wasnt even going to try to get me to go to the hospital even though he wanted to get me admitted so instead he put me one about 4 different things. found out about the hospital thing when my mom went in and asked him just how bad was i. so it has not been a fun four weeks. currently being treated for just my ashtma which is still causing me problems after leaving me alone for several years. on three different things for it. its making work a bit more exhausting then normal.
sorry for the ramble ttyl

well that went well. something else came up to derail the whole starting of the paperwork plan. this is starting to realy suck. i know not what about my previouse post is still true. granted the being sick part is. excuss me while i go find a thick tree to smash my head up against for awhile. it should feel better than this whole up down crap about getting my house on the road to being built. sheesh all this trouble just to get my own home on the farm..

hello all of the seven swords. felt the need to let you in know about why i am going to be away or have irregular play times.
for those who know that i have been working on getting a house built i am most likely going to be going to start the whole paper trail that locks me in for 30 years of my life. there is alot of prep work that needs to get done however before the build starts that i and my family can do and that is going to eat up some or most of my free time .
the reason i havent been on for anything other than skill changes in about a week is because i came down with a nast chest cold that has left me out of it when im home. and a bit out when im at work as well. good thing i have a very understanding crew i work with.
i will try to get in and get some mission time in to try to continue raising my faction to help with getting our goals done.
sorry for the long post
hopefully i didnt ramble to much
cold meds are fun on the brain. going to post this here and in the xfire thing. maybe some or all will see it. or atleast those that need to.

just a curiosity. evemon list some ships with a feature of passengers. did at one time or currently can a ship carry someone in there pod or something.

thanks all to the replys.

when did the location of the headquarters get moved? or did the name of the place get changed.

im currently running around in a moa . i finaly was able to start running level 2 missions and it seems that cruiser is just not up to the task of handling that level of mission. is it me or is this true. should i just run level one missions until i can purchase a battle cruiser ? which since is going to take a bit since i lost three ships trying this so far. two where insured one wasnt.

so how does a war effect this multi national corp. or does it

uh oh

havent been playing much of anything . been working on trying to find out if i can build a house or not, as well as how much and everything . been getting on every now and then to change skills training .
so what is this about . a new age?

is there realy a difference between ammo types. is there a preferance just wondering if the extra cost of some is realy worth it.

what all do you need to place and use a container for mining?

and why did this thing post on page 4 instead of page 5.

what all do you need to place and use a container for mining?

ok who broke eve..
figures i get the urge to play and its down..oh well.

been on and off . been on mostly to do skills. need to find time to get on to make money and do stuff . but im still around
still working my way up in ship classes currently can fly a battle cruiser but cant fight one yet or purchase. i am also up to flying mining barges and have the small one already i have mining up to 5 as well as refining up to 5 . other than that still working on my list of skills
have fun
talk to you all later

well after several days of training my char is up to the point where he can fly a mining barge. it is not what my char primary skills however so it does take him longer than other to train in the science fields he is more military . mining like for most i hear is a back up for him. after training up in a few learning skills which eve mon has recomended several including those im going to have to go in search of. kana is going to be traing his skills up to the point of being able to handle whatever ship is next in line after battle cruisers. then i intend to go back and max out my ship handling of other classes to open up the advance ships in that hull types. erf i think i have more than 100 days of training planed already.
im currently up to battlecruiser 2 granted its going to be awhile before i get one. still havent decided which caldari ship i want let alone have my secondary skills up to level to fight it.
looks like this time im going to stick around a bit longer than a month.

k

so is anyone else not seeing there mining lasers graphic working since the pacth.
any one notice anything else?

It's amazing how easily I blend into crowds and such, considering I'm 6'5" and am built like the proverbial brick sh*thouse.

you got maybe a inch on me ... its very easy to not be noticed. i find if they dont look up past the avg height for a face they just dont notice you standing there. been out to eat with my friends , standing together with me right behind them they dont notice me and i can be talking with my friends and they just dont notice me if they dont look up.

erf decided to try mining with a badger just doing high sec mining . so far i have been mining for about a hour and have yet to fill up getting close very close but not full yet.. i hope this was worth it

Depends on how high-sec. And Badgers are good mainly for AFK-mining... Log onto the Seven Swords chat channel in-game and you can ask the rest of us for tips and advice and decide if you want to sign back up for the corp.

ok.

Feel free to hold the shares as ransom. ;) I have ways around the concern of shareholders... Muhuhaha.

for some reason i thought you would have a way. meh who needs share holders....

oi sort of came back to the game to give it another try. part of me thinks im insane for doing so but im going to try it anyhow.
i noticed that i am nolonger apart of the corp. is that a result of me being gone for so long and automatic from the game side or did i just get bumped for inactive from the corp. dont worry about it though . but i may just hold onto my 100 shares for ransome . :)
currently just doing so skill training and some other things just to get back into the game.

getting closer to being able to use a Caldari cruiser and was looking for suggestions. what is good and what is not .

And it was a frigate only mission so being able to pilot a destroyer or cruiser. Not to mention the fact that the caldari destroyer has only a single launcher mount, which isn't enough for a missile boat.

I think it was more the semi random set up of the mission, and where the acceleration gate dumped me off.

I think the really heartbreaking part was the 1+ million credits i had spent on 4 meta level 4 launchers before that mission, which didn't even get to fire at that way point.

(By the way, if someone can figure out how to find the wreck, it still has all 4 launchers on board)

Oooh, yeah, I know that mission. Believe it or not, destroyers count as frigates (Vizagrim and I learned this the hard way) but that particular mission did take two people to complete. Sorry to hear about the launchers. Unfortunately, I believe wrecks disappear after an hour or two if they aren't recovered.

Yeah, I've noticed the redundant questlines as well. It seems like the very heart and soul of this game is based around forming a corporation, hoarding resources, getting your skills up, and driving deep into low-sec space to establish a starbase and rule your own corner of the galaxy, fending off pirates and hostile players the whole time.

Really, once we get to that point, I think it'll be fun as all hell. It's getting there that takes some time.

ran into this mission over the weekend. took a frigate the first time around was able to take out a couple before i just got swamped warped out went back in with my destroyer found it to be tricky but doable . lost about 75% of m armour but survived.i found if when i got in and was in range i headed away as fast as i could only slowing down to get back in range of a few at a time.

Few questions though. I picked up some launchers but have not tried them. Do they require ammo, or do they have a basic missile until you add further ammo? Are launchers ok as primary weapons or should I have a railgun as well?

the missle launchers come unloaded. so you will need to buy some or travle to headquarters and pick some up from the corp supplies.

twas wondering if i was doing anything to help out the corp.

my char is a merc a fighter im not all that sure what my char is doing or where he is going to end up. as im still getting a feel for the game.

for the most part dont worry about me i tend to run solo in games and dont join guilds due to the fact my play time is varied and sometimes i go away from games for anywhere from a week to a month.

im currently running around in a condor .
oh and sometimes it takes a bit to translate my ramblings!

char kanaalt
race Calderi
class merc spec ops

A buddy of mine who lurks here sent me a text to say he signed up as well. Kithalt is char name, he thinks...

it be kanaalt . my mistake. there was another it was kithoids but i got rid of him

I recommend the one on the Drunk Dwarves website for the table. It's 4x8' (although I expanded mine out to 5x10'), with removable tops for customizing.

http://www.drunkdwarves.com/pages/artttgttcultimatetable.html

Unfortunately, the site is currently undergoing a facelift, so the pictures and links are not really set up right. But our group is thrilled with my table. It's huge. We play D&D on it with the Chessex Mondomat, which covers almost the whole area. I run a game with 8 PC's, and it's easily big enough for all of us. Then, for other games, I can switch out the tabletop (once I get the other ones built); for example I am planning a couple of wargames terrain tops, one in 15mm for my Flames of War WW2 game, and another at 28mm for Warhammer Fantasy.

the problem with that table is that when you want to play d&d you cant scoot up close without causing problems. from what i have read of this discussion he wants to be able to sit at the table without causing leg problems like there has been in the past.. granted i know about those since im familur with the table he is talking about replacing it and have helped move it several times.

for some reason i detect a passing of the hat is going to be involved.

the idea of having a tray and or draw to place minis, books etc would help out alot and might come in handy when poeple need to get by .

my group uses the minis when avaible we use the correct one , or one that sorta is the same when it is not.
it is helpfull to get a idea of where everything is at with the mins and its hard to say no i wasnt that close when well you placed the mini and moved it so you where.
using the minis and a roll up hexmap with wet erase helps also in keeping track of where you went and or where spell effects are .
sure it adds time but it helps keep things clear
