The baby blue imp simps didn't offer much resistance, as expected.
With all the new ships, it's nice to know that the venerable Corvette haven't been made obsolete. Yet.

I'm off to shove Aisling's simps around a bit again. But I'll use a proper ship this time, it took forever last night.

It took forever. My MCs ran dry halfway through, and the spec ops. and their phasers did a real number on my hull. The shield (bi-weave) never dropped though, even though I was down to 3-4% at times.
Still, it has over 50 ly jump range, and I use it for exploration too. It's a very nice little ship.

Hacking holographic adverts is always fun, but I decided to go for some more direct action and pick a fight. The thing is that Corax isn't really built with combat in mind, but rather a general purpose mission runner (pirate ship).
Nevertheless It performed very well, and I'm in the top 50% now.

That blue haired waifu anime princess and her simps will make a perfect target to start with.

The new suit looks nice, although I've never liked the helmet. So hat it is.
Now I'm being "ordered" to do some powerplay mischief? I thought I was a deniable asset, we don't get ordered around!
OK, I'll do it. Just let me slip into something more comfortable. (Ship, that is.)

"Megaship with Sidey for reference."
I had to take a look at one of those ships that we chased around these systems a few weeks ago. Patrolled by both system authority and October Consortium ships.
(Not that I planned to get into a fight in this thing anyway...)

After the slight disappointment with what I had hoped would be my new large exploration ship, I'm going out in my smallest one.
As always, the groves are very scenic.
But according to my suit the temperature is rising, meaning that the sun is about to rise.
Let's call it a night.

Bottom line? I wouldn't recommend the Caspian for hardcore explorers.
I'm still watching this stream, and it's very comprehensive. And the Caspian is a very good ship, but it has some drawbacks that I think will be an issue for many explorers.
So here's my impression from the stream:

I want a duster! Would look absolutely awesome with the wide brimmed hat.
Perfect for my "space marshall" persona, and something to wear when upholding the law out on the frontier.

And I always scan to the last few percent of power. (I'd do the last samples holding my breath if it wasn't for the sampler needing power.)

Visting these sites during the night time is a bit like walking around in a dreamscape. That takes away some of the tedium of jumping between the three same "scars" to collect samples.

Tedious, but very scenic. I really hope to find these gnarly creepers out in the Black in the future!
And I'm back in the top 25%. Barely. So I guess I'm going out a few more times before this CG is over.
