Welcome to Wolf 906 Bugbear.

Unfortunately, myself and Goatchops have had limited flight time of late, both of us are up to our eyebrows in "paperwork".

Your sortie is welcomed by higher management, and we encourage you to keep flying and earning credits.
It makes the Wolfstar Raiders' position stronger.

We however must ask that you leave your preconceptions at the door.
Any party who is willing to pay you for the glorious explosions you produce from the ships of our foes, must be welcome to do so.

Fly "safe".

Well, the way I see it, I'm draining Federation's bank account (as vast as I assume it may be), so potentially, that counts as incidental 'damage'.

Oh and I forgot to mention, in the spirit of WSR my activities also included numerous rammings of allied craft! Gotta keep that reputation up!

If any other raiders are planning an outing - the Gold party seem to be the biggest troublemakers at the moment.

What I'm doing right now is trying to clear pirates from that new station. (The Kaushpoos community goal.)
It pays well and there are multiple HazRES in the system.
By constructing this station we make life better for all CMDRs in the galaxy, and besides, the Wolfstar Raiders are supposed to kill pirates.
But grinding rep for the Corvette and the Cutter is important too; they're beast ships... :squirrel:

Mission report:

As I left the starport "Neville Horizons" in Kaushpoos, I noticed an anaconda-flying buddy of mine. He was the first player to get on my friends list, and has done so on day 1. CMDR Blackcat nnnnnnnnnn* winged up with me and we went to the haz-RES. We pounded dropships, clippers, assault ships, gunships, anacondas, and a few pythons for a while, with the occasional small ship in the mix. After I'd used up about half my shield cells and plasma ammo and Blackcat was on 60% hull (since he didn't carry cells in order to make power available for his terrifying 7-beam-1-plasma setup :shock:), we were taking a short break when we spotted a true jackpot.

A conda wing of five, 3 master ranked, one deadly, one dangerous.
"CONDA HORDE!" I informed my buddy.

After I'd scanned them all, Blackcat asked, "If we push them into rocks they'll take damage without turning red, right?"
(Dude, you need to liven up your playstyle. :P)
Yes they do, but that's boring.

I told him, "Let's do it the fun way!" and screaming "Wolfstar Raiders make questionable decisions!!" I blasted a Master ranked conda with a C4 plasma. Blackcat joined me and we tore the living daylights out of the three Master ranked condas.

The other two had been working on Blackcat, as they deemed him a higher threat and had already lowered his shields, but when I finished off the last master conda with a plasma to the powerplant that took it from 64% health to DEAD, they disapproved severely. I tried to fire a shield cell to replenish my shields, as they had been rather weakened by that last master conda, but I had run out. Then the deadly and dangerous condas both fired C4 plasmas at me simultaneously. Bye-bye shields... :( at least the sound effects were good...

I targeted the dangerous conda and managed to drop his shields, but my hull was beginning to abandon the position in the universe ordained for it by the shipyard. I dropped a final plasma round in the conda, forcing it to duck away, then boosted far away from him in the manner of a true Wolfstar Raider. He didn't bother me again, as Blackcat started shooting at him to get him off me and got his undivided attention. My turrets had done a decent job of keeping the deadly conda off me, and he had quickly decided Blackcat was a softer target.

I had sent him the message "run" as I boosted, but he must not have seen it, as he fought on gamely. I was at 14% hull and in no condition to go back. After about twenty seconds, just as I cleared the ring's mass-lock, he said, "Hull 25% gotta run!" The condas must have seen him trying to run and fired plasmas because when I looked up at the wing icon to see how he was doing, it turned gray and stated "Destroyed."
Gotta love the Personal Escape System - Blackcat was back at the station in a minute, growling over his ship's demise. I supercruised back to the station to re-arm and repair. While traveling, we agreed that if we were both on full ammo and health and my conda was A-rating, that whole wing would have been toast. As it was, they wouldn't be attacking innocent miners trying to build a station in a nebula again anytime soon.

Blackcat presently had important business elsewhere and left the wing, so I handed in my 2.5 million credits of bounties, planting me in the top 15% for the CG. Based off Galnet feeds this morning and reports from other CMDRs, the CG is complete and all the pirates in Kaushpoos have been wiped out.

Mission complete!

Next up - find an ideal location for the Imperial branch of the Wolfstar Raiders to have its headquarters.

I am new (as you probably know) and would like to know: is there an initiation test before joining :? ? Also may I join? :eh:

My commander name is: Detritus8

That is all for now! :)

~{Detritus}~
I am Groot.
Please don't take my advice. You will wind up in jail if you do.
For some reason, I feel obliged to display how many people have talked in IRC over the past 2 hours: Image :problem:

I'm currently 40, 000 LY out. But when I get back to the bubble I would appreciate an escort and then some shenanigans afterwards... I have no weapons and no shields. I also will not jump past what you can jump of course... What good are escorts if you leave them behind?

I wont be back for some time yet, however this pay-day is meant to go towards a more combat capable ship. I have yet to give combat a try so I'm quite interested.
:D

Welcome to the Wolfstar Raiders CMDR Detritus8

As for your induction, simply find a time to fly with some fellow raiders.
If you manage to accidentally kill one of them, then you are top-flight material, and we will fast track your application.

The Wolfstar Raiders : We fly badly, we fight badly, we make questionable decisions!

Ladies and Gentlemen (if we don't have any ladies CMDR Silverware will wear a wig)

I am back after a rather lengthy and painful shoulder rehabilitation and will be on the flight deck running sorties out of Wolf906. I will be rusty and my aim will suck... so no change in apparent skill level will be noticed by anyone willing to wing up with me. I will just be crushing the belts to beat on some pirates before I end up pissing off the feds(again) and having to bailout (again)

Mission statements will be updated soonish, but in the intrem CMDR Silverware is ordered to acquire a backless dress for the WSR Ball. We don't want the first ever WRS social event to be an obvious sausage fest now do we?

you are 17, what are you fussing about? :V


and i am confused about detritus' age as to how he comes to know a game (rock raiders) thats as old as he is?
it was never that prominent (even though it would deserve to be, its an awesome game).
you have an older sibling that showed it to you detritus?
