-keep out of omicron 100!-

[sovereign]

I very rarely travel into alaskaberty, it's only happened once since I started with my order character and that was to chase down a liberty battlecruiser and two bounty hunters that kept poking their heads into omicron minor.

I typically encourage other non-Bs| order pilots to stay out of alaska as well, as it only provokes liberty into intruding on our space in return.

That's going to change when I get my gunboat though =P More recon/stealth missions into liberty are going to happen, but rest assured I wont be there to start fights.
When I smuggle cardamine on my junker, I go from alpha through the tau systems, through kyushu, shikoku, kepler, colorado, to new york. The route may take a little longer, but it's far more realistic for a smuggler to cruise through open house space with contraband than to go through three of the most heavily guarded military systems in all of sirius with it.

If that route doesn't appeal to anyone, there's also Alpha -> Taus -> Baffin -> Coronado -> Cortez -> tradelanes into New York. A decent bit shorter, I think, there's 80k of open flying the whole way, and then six tradelanes to Manhattan. Pretty short, and unless the TAZ will blast you for going through Baffin (not bloody likely, if you keep on your wits and talk to them) its pretty hard to get caught right up until the last tradelane.
