Ok, well I'd like to have a weekly rotation if that's possible:
SUN: Solar_Geo
MON:EDIT* The_Shrike
TUES: RPC
WED
THURS
FRI:StarWeaver
SAT:Watch TV, Do Nothing

Summary: The game was not very intense- in fact, knowing that I can hide in asteroids, planets, and the sun again was very refreshing. I also have access to I->A again, making the game infinitely easier :D (I'm used to my perma challenge :P )
I mined Eridani's belts except for the outer one, and didn't really make a purchase except for mining equipment. I have kept at least 250 Credits for radiation purposes though ;)\

Here is the .sav if people want to participate but do NOT have dropbox:
Succession 1
Here is the extension that I have included. Most are just graphics and sounds, and do not effect gameplay:

Is that sun 31 Mar? I can do a round fri or sat if that's available, just have to make sure I get my keybinds set back up. I can't imagine temporarily swapping in a separate ini file for a person is an issue. Because, well, in my config, space is stop, so I'll shoot up your stations if I dont :D

Oh, thought: maybe hack Captains' Log to dump all playernotes to dbglog on game end? So you can't accidentally lose them?

Ok, so I'm permenantly banned from tweaking those extensions for giggles and laughs when people discover changes? :P

I went through Groombridge (which succeeded Eridani).

Ship Config:

-turbolaser cannon
-mining laser
-monopole deflector screen
-Nova 50 reactor
-miner's cargo hold
-Blast Plate (x4)

Defeated the Kronosaur and have Volkov. Lots of goodies left in a cargo container in Groombridge. Close to 6,000 credits.

Looked into the next system a bit, but nothing interesting. That's the next guy's :p .

Good luck.

Great! Nice to see someone take down the Kronosaur with a turbolaser :D (I always have to do get a particle beam before I do it though....).
Want to take the thursday slot for the rotation?

How did you even manage to encounter the Kronosaur one system after Eridani?!

I looked at the events log on Captain's log, and apparently Xephyr's really good at taking down frigates :D

Yes... On the second try anyway. ;)

Maybe I can give a go for another round.

Where there's Korolov, there's frigates, usually.

Okie, there wasn't much to do in the next system -- 2/3 of the stations were already dead, and Volkov killed most of the enemy ships before I could track them -- but that was fine, since I ended up sleeping all day and then only having five minutes at a time to play >_>.

I left the ship next to the exit gate and a small cache.

Here's a backup of the ingame log:

I forgot to add there, the auton is smoking now, and I keep hearing Volkov demand that it stop shooting him.

At least the wimpy stations still blow up pretty nice:

Ok I'll be away for a week to study for some high stakes tests near the end of the school year, so just keep the succession going until I come back. ;)
Hopefully this isn't too hard to do :D

Well, like the archetypal doctor I have good news and bad news, but fortunately more of the former and less of the latter.

First the bad news:

-I lost the auton. It gave its life in a noble struggle against... something or other. At some point it was just gone.
-I accidentally lost all our illegals to a Commonwealth scan.
-I didn't understand how the mining scanner worked in this mod and lost all of my ID'd asteroids when I backtracked, which meant that all the flags were gone when I got back and I couldn't really do any mining in an efficient manner.
-Cygni was pretty much more of the same, at least when it came to stations. No Tinker, hotel, or corporate enclave.
-I wasted an unID'd weapon enhancement ROM on our turbolaser before I could upgrade to a better weapon.

And the good news:

-We are rich beyond dreams of avarice. I got lucky mining substantial amounts of cobalt-13 ore and helium-3 regolith before I lost my asteroid targets. Combined with salting down the Groombridge cache and most of the Ross 248 cache, this netted us about 80,000 credits. About 40,000 credits are left, because I went on a shopping spree.
-I upgraded to a Nova-100 and we are now rocking a Yoroi S500 +20% and a dual turbolaser. This is the absolute best gear that I could find in the four systems we've visited so far. Combined with the collimator and blast plate that we already had, this puts us in great shape for the next system: Rigel Aurelius!
-I found some more illegals, so we should be able to get a Black Market rom at the Hotel in Rigel. I put them in Volkov's hold along with some stuff that Dvalin will be interested in. We will probably want to create a NotForSale cache at some point, maybe in St. Katherine's Star; this stuff is pretty heavy and Volkov doesn't have much more room.

Here's the game log:
Image

We also have a bunch of luxury food in our hold; we can either sell this at the hotel in Rigel or double back and sell it at the medical station in Groombridge. I haven't sold any fuel rods to the Ice Farm in Cygni yet; instead I backtracked and sold all the rods I found in-system to the ice farm in Ross 248 since they were still paying full price. We should be able to sell about 300 rods to the Cygni farm whenever we have accumulated that many.
