I thought of startin a log about my adventures around Liberty. This will be it really..
So , I was heading out to Pitsburgh with fellow congresman William to do some salvaging. It seems Pittsburgh is in high demand of Scrap Metal, due to some salvaging operation or something. I really didnt care to be honest. What it mattered was that the scrap would fetch a good price... always.
On my way there , me and McMillan picked up some weird stuff on our comns. Seemed like one of them Keepers or whatever was in the system! We kept our heads low and used a lower frequency chanel so it wouldnt be picked up by him. Well, eventually we arrived to Pittsburgh and the surrounding area, a vast clearance . No scrap to be seen in there, so we moved a while back untill we reached the true jersey field. We stood there mining till our holds were full and bloating. Then we docked at Pitts and sold the stuff. Fetched a preety nice price, probably due to my awsome bargaining skills.
We then decided to buy a load of Boron to take to our Smelter. We loaded up and set course to Puerto Rico , going right through Texas. On our way there we met a few rather weird fellers. One policemen who seemed to have had one too many synth pot cigars and some fella named Yoda who claimed to be a jed... a jed... A Jedi! Yes , a Jedi... whatever that is... Anyways , we continued heading to Culebra where we sold our load. The seller there was a Junker as well , so it was a fair trade through and through I guess. The Boron would be used to make more CSV’s for our epic Junker war fleets. From there we took some Copper to sell at Planet Denver. We met up with the same strange fellers in Texas. This time, one of em was askin fer a Barrager V, one of them remade versions. PEH! Ill stick to the original and the best, thank you very much. Ya see Barragers are like movies, ya watch the first one and think “Yeah, this Rocks out” but then all the sequels fail to live up to expectations and suck. Like the Barrager line of guns.
Anyways , as we reached Denver , we heard someone on system comms. The comm panell on my ship was a tad rusty though, so I didnt pick up everything he said. Something about we beeing bountied and the CSV beeing weak. WEAK!? Its the pinacle of Junker engeneering ... I mean , seriously, it even has COMBAT in the name. It cant get more powerfull than that. You know, its rumoured that the CSV can survive two direct hits from a Liberty Cruisers Forward Gun. Thats pretty damm epic if you ask me. So you can take your shoddy Mantas and Eagles and stick em where the sun dont shine.
Again after some badgering of the local commodity trader , we got our hands on some high quality , low price Basic Alloys. We heard 'Hattan was buyin em fer a nifty price , so off we went. Colorado seemed suspiciously quiet , not a Xeno in sight. As soon as we got out of the Silver rocks we rushed to the Jump Gate just in case one was hiding somewhere like behind the jumpgate or unside a cargo ship, Xeeners are shifty buggers. My radar was makin weird noises and not workin properly, so that made me a litle nervous as well. Everything was fine though, so we jumped to New York. The lane to Bush was quiet, which was good I guess. When we got to Bush though , a weird freelancer named Cartman or Carmen sommat started chasin us. Good thing he (or she) didnt try anything funny, or these Barragers Mk1 would make her (or him) feel the pain that only rapid fire lazer can bring! Anyways , we docked in 'Hattan and sold our stuff. Again a nifty profit margin, but they need all those cheap metal bits to make those lame Avengers the Navy fly about in, so i guess it was to be expected. I took a good long look at the equipment dealer and at those wimpy Liberty Justice guns. Peh! They got nothin on our Barragers! Well, it was getting late , so I decided Id get some sleep. Thank the heavens this CSV is so roomy, I can spread out a bit.
