How long has it been? A year? Two? I can't remember. It's been a while since I took the Pulsar through Uncharted 4
What I do remember is getting all angry at the fact the system out in the unknown worlds has some field preventing anyone from going too fast. I do remember a record I made stating that I can't be fucked exploring all of that system due to that field, because there was some big rock out off the beaten path. Well today that changed. Made me happy, well, happier than normal.
Vanesca got the Mirrodin, joined me at Gotha and in we went. The forth world was open to us, and thankfully, there was no stark changes as there were previously. Still red, still slow, and still frustrating as fuck. But hey, with these new Libertine Racing engines, it makes travelling there a bit more bearable. So we fly rock to rock on the outskirts of this red shithole and find ourselves staring at a rift. One that looks the same as any other, only thing is that there's no signature to tell us where it lead. Being the people we are and the working for the company that we do, we obviously went in. The image you see below was capture upon entry.
Not a lot to look at. Funny looking sun, massive dark clouds and a whole lot of nothing else. We did a sweep around the sun and found a small rock, but nothing significant could be found. Maybe we bring ships bigger than two light fighters out here next time. At least we didn't die. I'm just tired as shit from keeping my eyes open for so long.
Goodnight, for now.

Good evening everyone.
Good news, our Bustard project now has a name. 'Eclipse' is what the project is called now, mind here that this is not the final name for the vessel, but it makes it a bit more organized later.
The crew and I have brought the it to Tsukishima Liner Yards, ready for Renzu to begin the refit process. Funds have been sent, and I'm currently showing everybody their rooms for the duration of our stay. It's not easy to see the workers rip apart what was just built, but that's exactly why I would have loved to get all those modules sorted during the original building process.
Alas, things are as they are now. We're making good progress, and I can't wait to take the ship on its maiden voyage.
Stay tuned, it'll take a few days to get another update I presume. Will take the time to finish the request for stage two of the refit, which will include thrusters, engine flares and lights.
Stay safe out there, everyone.

Steps forward are what we want. I'll look forward to your next update.
If you require us at the Sol to prepare some specific equipment once the refit is done say so, there were some hands that didn't had much to do in the canteen.

Ding Dong, you got Mail.
Good news once more, Renzu just gave me another update about Eclipse. We're nearing completion of the initial refitting process and they'll perform testflights as soon as the hull is able to be sealed properly. For the next step I'll require your help though. I've asked Renzu if they can provide docking modules, jumpdrives or hyperspace matrixes themselves, but I've not received a reponse just yet. What I know I'll need your help for are the thrusters. They fuellines have already been installed, but we're missing the right nozzles.
Could one of you try to get your hands on four individual CT-LB Capital Ship Thrusters? That would reduce waiting time considerably.
Thank you all in advance, stay safe out there.

Nataly you gave me quite a scare there, for one moment I was thinking of being send those obnoxious sale emails again or those from the "I buy/ sell any vessel"-vendors.
Sure I can get you some of those thrusters, we don't even need to look that far. I will be able to provide them tomorrow if that works for you.

Apologies, didn't mean to scare you.
Works perfectly fine. I'll have a small hangar prepared for you to load off the thrusters, assuming you need a transport to get all of them in one go. I've already asked Handler R2 if they can provide us with addons such as docking modules and jumpdrives and such. Just in case Renzu doesn't offer such services - do you know who to call? I've rarely had the need for such equipment, so I'd rather not go up to some cheapscape and be sold a toaster for a fortune.
Let's hope this mail finds you before I do.
Just kidding. Or am I?

I remember there being someone selling Docking Modulars from Gallia and someone that had the in Rheinland, I think the later was Daumann but my memory might be not the best regarding those parts. For Jumpdrives and Matrixes I would suggest Kishiro but McKenzie might have a contract with someone as most of our shared fleet has said equipment hard-mounted.
Aside from that maybe DSE is an option unless they fully opted towards building ships.

*She leans back, enjoying a glass of sake while sitting in the captain's chair* Happy modem dile up noises, Vanesca.
You won't believe how good it feels to finally be able to test the Sol's bigger sister. We're missing a number of modules though. Given that Kusari seems pretty dry for those at the moment, and that you've had interactions with Gallia in the past, I'd ask if you maybe have some favors to cash in? We're missing docking modules, four of them, a hyperspace matrix and a jumpdrive. Preferably a MKIV, but a MKIII will do for now if nothing else can be found. These custom made capacitors could house a cloaking device as well, but currently that would run us bankrupt, both financially and reputation wise, keeping Kusari's distaste for them in mind. Perhaps there are remainders of the Velorum's old equipment that we could have repaired and installed at Renzu?
Thanks in advance, stay safe out there.
