Well, have some money saved and going to make a little bit more...
Lately, my days were pretty stressfull so i decited to buy a capital ship.....
I am not looking for RP-ability. I have enough fighters, gunboats and cruisers to RP with...
I heard that some factions offers mission against caps that earns a pretty good amount of money.I want to try this way of making money. Pew pewing helpless patrols and stuff, that would really help my nerves. I know its not really a good thing to do on this server. I want to try this, at least for teh lulz.

So can anybody help me with this? What char to make and which ship to buy. Dont have to be a battleship, cruiser/battlecruiser and if possible gunboat too(while i doubt it) is perfectly fine too...

I know that BHG offer missions against Corsairs Osirises in Omega 15. Maybe even Dabador does the same, not sure.

The only factions that offer anti-Battleship (some others have anti-Cruiser/Destroyer missions, but they only drop half the cards) missions at the moment are the Bounty Hunters and the Outcasts (both against Corsair Osirises). The best place for the Bounty Hunters being Rostock in Omega 15 (you can get them in Omicron Delta from the Freeport, not Dabadoru, but that's not so easy due to the fact that Delta is a high-traffic system), and the Outcasts being any of the stations in Eta.

They're both roughly the same with regards to rewards, however, if you get a Bounty Hunter mission against Osirises in Omega 15, that has a waypoint in the Nebulae, the Osirises can't see you, no matter how close you get, so you can sit next to them in a Destroyer and kill them, without them returning fire. This means that where you would need a Battleship in Eta, you can earn just as much with a Bullhead (Battlecruiser) in Omega 15, which costs half the price.

As for rewards, all the Osirises drop 1 mil in cards, along with prisoners, pilots and H-Fuel. The most I've ever heard of someone making in Omega 15 was around 16 million for a single mission, which would take 10 - 15 minutes.

The RM-BS in Omega 15 offers Corsair missions against Osirises.

But unless you have some roleplay bounds to an official faction and/or get some kind of escort for your BS you better stay with a GB or less.
Doing missions only is very boring and roleplaying a BS is somewhat challenging.

Well, battlecruiser is indeed cheaper but if i change the bs scanner for standart one it will be cheaper only by 100 millions. And BH line is not realy the prettyest ones. And sarissa looks cool. Yes, there is the baloon thing but i dont like that one, i think i will go for the cooler one.
Anyway, thank you guys. I wont be back till friday so if you have more hints i would gladly accept them.

The new Outcast Dread looks really cool check it in the Dev forum.
And indeed the best missions are from BHG against Ossies.

Yes, i saw the new OC dread and i wil surely buy it once .86 comes out and we know that is will be

Quote:Soon ™

Anyway the reason why i am more in favor of OCs atm. is that i have OC battle-freighter with cap 5 which is about 80 millions so compared to BHG BC(cheapest choice(+guns and CAU)) the difference is almost non-existant... And i didnt counted in "the coolness factor"...

Thanks for addinational reply, keep it comming...
