Or you can hire an escort? So you don't have to pay 5 pirates?

17KK = 17 million profit, one way.
That's not chicken feed.
Edit: Oops, forgot to mention, that's in my 'new' 5k Transport, minus the space taken up by armor.

It actually is, considering that you can trade lawful goods that aren't even ore for just as much.

I make 12 million profit in my Serenity, which is nice for such a straight forward route. Lanes only and it's really short imho. Not so much money on the return route, but eh, at least I'm playing on a route that's active for now. Trading with nobody else around is boring as hell.

You could probably fly to the Taus and pick up Niobium from the IMG?

If the prices were buffed, and I happen to catch a trader as a nom, at least I can kill them without feeling pity for them.
Like that guy said last page, war stuff costs, but at least it makes it interesting, if minimal. Its just all risk/no reward.

It is a nice run. Decent profits, nice encounters.
It is clear most people didnt read the first post or just that of wich they tought they needed to know since there will be a nice reward coming
So yes profits may not be as high but dont forget this : A trade event will be added after a few days into the event for allied forces to bring supplies in order to keep defenses up. The event will also feature PVE elements if needed, allowing the acquiring of scientific data. : as said by spaz him self ^_^

But I only shoot transports if they don't comply.

What I don't like is the encouragement to have nomads hugging the trade lanes, as there is no other way to intercept people in Kyushu. It was a different thing in Kappa during the FP11 repair event, where people bottlenecked Kappa by hugging the jump holes from Gamma and Delta. Back then, people were motivated to log their stuff in order to break the blockades to get the optional goal done. This time, people are motivated to log nomads to get cheap moneys while there are no real optional goal here. Some PoB defenses close to the JH for the time being maybe? The only defense Kyushu has is the Battleship and the battleship spawn area around Kyushu. Maybe we could get a second, optional commodity with even higher risk to increase the defenses.
