' Wrote:Unless Hydrocarbons and Alien Organisms get a sellprice 8000+ there wont be any miners after it (except maybe Samura-faction-players).
Depends. Mining profit depends on a few factors: Fillspeed, route distance (traveltime), sell price. A lower sell could be offset by quicker filling and a shorter route. Heck, the Tau 29 to Nago route is 0, you mine hydrocarbs locally and sell them right to the station in the field for 700ish a pop if I remember correctly. Great for a starting player using a freighter.
Quote:Alien Organisms, mined in Hokkadio and in Omicron Beta (That would be Samura and GMG) and sold on say cambridge and Its research station for about 10.000 Credits. And not buyable anywere esle.
That would make two hostile factions mine their stuff in the midst of their enemies (Outcasts for GMG and Blooddragons for Samura) and a damn long way to the sellingpoint leading through a Warzone.
Alien Organisms are also present in the Theta system, and in decent quantity. Samura can scoop those up easily while backed by their Corsair allies. And sneaking through Omega 41, Omega 5, Cambridge gives them a very easy route to run. Sorry, sell at Cambridge will not work.
Both Kishiro and Samura have Gold, and Niobium bonuses. And if I remember correctly, Beryllium too, which does sell on Narita. Mining ops in Leeds and Tau 23 are possible.
