Actual ownage this time.

I bought Viper Defence Mk.II on Boston Base, Barnards Star, but did not have enough money to buy an autopilot.
OK, I said, I will just pilot manually to a dock in Sol, sell some Farm machinery and buy an autopilot. Little did I know, how difficult that would be.

The closest shipyard from my hyperspace exit was Daedalos, orbiting Mercury, so I set forth.

After two sticky keys incidents, I was left with only a tiny bit of fuel left. But I continued on.
I eventually caught up to Mercury and since I was in a different plane than Daedalos, I decided to enter orbit first.
After doing so, I did manage to plane shift to Daedalos' plane and dock. (Incurring 11.2% hull damage in the process).

I did not make money on that run. In fact, I lost money.
But I successfuly flew through an entire system without autopilot!

Yeah, the scaling in that game was so bad. It was honestly better to stay at level 1 the whole game and never level then it is to actually play it properly.

I used to play with a (made it myself) mod that that set your level to 50, and maxed all skills and attributes. The beginning of the game was pretty hard, as the enemies hit like trucks, and you had no good weapons to return the favor. Once you got a good weapon you were golden though.

My favorite outfit was Shadowrend (sword version) and a robe. Staying alive was a bit harder this way, but it made the combat more ... exciting. The hardest part of the game was keeping allies alive, and for that I had setav health 10000



Anyway, I finally managed to unveil the Riven mod I got through The War Within, and it actually is decent. It is for a pretty good machine gun, and has good but not great stats (multishot and damage, on an LMG). I think I'll keep it even though it is worth a few hundred platinum and requires MR 15 (the weapon requires MR 14), when I'm only MR 8. It will be useful down the road.

Second battle against Lubella, The Witch of Decay. Took a few tries, but I was able to slap her breasts around and not take any damage the whole fight. Also, poison arrows(which you can buy just before the fight) affect her, and cause damage even while she's doing her off-screen attack. Got a neat passive item for the no-damage win, which gives you slight health recovery on every kill.

Ah, brings back good memories of doing that fight and the people watching being like "wow, seriously?"
Also the fight where I learned the poison arrows can poison yourself, too. :V

...Yeah, I learned that too. Also breaks a no-damage fight, as does anything you use that spends HP, like the Cursed Missive or Black Satchet.

Oh yeah, I bet my intense love for the Cursed Missive is probably why I never found out that there were 0-damage rewards.

If you got a good riven for the opticor(my favorite weapon of all time) I am going to find some way to reach across the internet to you then find some way to reach into your computer to then find some way to steal that riven out of your data files to replace it with this -fire rate grakata riven mod I stumbled across.  So I can hug it and squeeze it and love it and call it George.

Oh and also so I can install it into my Navy Blue opticor and become BFG Zephyr.

I have finally created the Principality of Italy, which is really just the Empire of Italy ruled by the gilded fist of the Venetian Republic. While my control on the peninsula is not complete, I still call it a grand enough victory that I might sit upon my laurels and rest.

Nope, it is for the Supra. The *good* version of the Supra is MR 14, not sure what the normal one is.

Landed a meme (AKA meteor) hammer hit on two people who weren't CCed in any manner.  At a pretty important moment too.

Somehow, it feels wrong for a biplane to be out-maneuvered by a B-34 bomber. Pretty sure the biplane pilot felt the same way as my bomber's noseguns ripped his plane apart during my second pass.
