    I've already decided on a fitting for my Vulture:
    Rig slots: 3x Small Core Defense Field Extenders I
    High Slots: 2x Miner II, Salvager I
    Mid Slots: Medium Shield Extender II, Survey Scanner II, 1MN Monopropellant Enduring Afterburner
    Low Slot: Mining Laser Upgrade II
    Drone Bay: 2x Hobgoblin II
    Skin: Amarr Industrial

      I just had to google it and yes it looks just like the Venture. I played EVE back in 2011 for a short time but was so lost on what to do.

      and despite it hiding TAH's commenent for some odd reason... NOPE, arms are out front. even the thruster placement is pretty similar. Venture's a lot bigger, though. (not that you can really Tell in EVE, scale is odd in that game)

    I think another use for the hull material would be to create boxes, make it so any mining ship or vehicle has a container for hull composite material (or however its called) if the container is full enough and the ship is full of minerals you can just take out the mineral container and the ship will 3d print another one, that way if you bring say, a mule loaded up with composite with your ROC you can extract way more minerals before needing to drop them off somewere, it creates more interaction and makes mining more viable

    Got a Claimer and a Vulture, because salvage was a big one for me. T-0 will be interesting on how they have us find random wrecks to salvage. I hope it's fun ,because I doubt we'll have the safe haven of the halo to feed upon like we can with mining.

    I'd love to see a video like this about the Polaris. Afaik it's a very recent addition to the UEE Navy so it would be interesting to learn the lore behind it.

      EVE fans and SC fans went into a flame war about it when it was announced. Led to the official EVE twitter account trolling them and Star Citizen challenging them to a lego build off which they did this year for charity.

    Paul, it's not so much that im interested in the vulture or salvage, I just like storytelling in a fictional universes I'm familiar with, but I also liked dry-as-f*** history in the US public school system so maybe I'm just sick. Y'all ever watch the Black Pants Legion series Tex Talks Battletech? Great stuff.
