What's wrong with mining?

[Blodo]

You know when I accidentally passed by last time... I saw Liberty Cruiser, COrsair GBs and 2 transports.... all happily mining together.. talking about new games coming out, what's the best capship etc....

so basically same thing as Harris-McDuff
EDIT: And just so you know there are many places where junkers can earn A LOT of money by some well chosen piracy. (of NPCs)

You shoot the pods on transport hauling goods that are sold for 1000 a piece just next door. No problem to earn 2-3 mil per 15 minutes.. while having fun instead of shooting rocks around...

Say, wouldn't that be the time when the 522nd brought all those Liberty caps over to Bornholm? >_> I was about to tell RHA to start manning the bombers, but the caps seemed to have left soon after the 522nd was flamed to death. So the Harris disease infected it only for a few weeks, the illness has passed and all is fine now.

That field really isn't that lucrative btw... considering one barrel spawns about 20 or so scrap metal, you'll be making roughly the same amount of money as trading on a good trade route.
