' Wrote:If you have an interest in us, why not Join Us?
More of an academic interest, I'm already in more factions than I really should be in, given my activity. But I feel like the Mollys are getting shafted by the mining mod.
About the Mule/Bactrian being a mining ship... I don't see why the Rogues or anyone else would complain. It would otherwise be the same, just given the mining bonus. It's also not a purely Molly/Rogue ship, it's sold on Barrier Gate. But it/they would be a good choice for Molly miners, since I don't really see them flying around in Spatials and Hegemons.

Gold, not Gold Ore, which is what you get when mining.
I'd be fine if a drop-off point for Gold Ore was up on Valetta Shipyard.
We're not allies with the Outcasts any more, but we're neutral enough to trade like that. Kyoto Base (if Dragons and Mollies could be neutral just for resource exchanges, which I don't think would be much of a stretch, they're really quite similar) might be another consideration, since Kusari is traditionally where you drop ore.
I'm pretty sure Molly's used to get a gold bonus. Pretty strange that it was removed. Maybe it would help boost the Molly's numbers if they got a decent gold mining bonus.
Yes, we did used to get a gold bonus, but it was not enough to make mining at all profitable when compared with simply shipping the ore - which is something that needs to be fixed, in my opinion.
People, pay attention to this. It may not be as mod-shatteringly important as whether or not the Outcasts or Corsairs have a slight advantage over each other (*cough*), or whether the refire speed changes ruined bombers or made them too powerful, or whether cruise power drain is ruining Disco, or making battleships overpowered, or making battleships useless... But it is important!... ish.
