[1] I've just recently completed a deal for the sale of my Megathron Federate Issue. The new & proud owner of this paperweight paid a sum well above 10b. I will not release the new owners name or actual price, though (s)he is free to should they desire.

[5] I'm now happy to say that the buyer has returned the ships hood ornament, the head of Fatal, for me to again mount on the bow of my ship. I got the federate megathron by killing Fatal about two years ago. Fatal is one of the two founders of the Guristas pirates.....and yes, I'm still hunting Rabbit, who is the other founder.

Please take you whining to another thread. I buseted my ass to kill him and all you do is complain that you didn't get recoginition.

I didn't shoot at him. He got past Evolution by using trix we didn't have access to. I enjoyed him smacktalking Shrike in local. It was pretty good smacktalk. We'll have to kill him again for that.
You getting the lucky shot was exactly that, luck. Not that you didn't deserve the kill, mind you.

[21] I have refused making any sort of public statement on this matter because I don't feel the need to boast about a simple sale or my ridiculous wealth. It is merely the first step in my personal ambition of using this ship against the Federation. Yet, it came to my attention that Doc Brown had intentions of selling my name and the purchase price for a sum of 500mil isk. This I feel is an incredibly lame act of capitalistic greed considering the recent influx of fifteen-billion isk to his wallet, and that the information is not exactly secret. Anyone holding a conversation with me in the past few days or week would have known. This 15bil ISK "paperweight" will be retrofitted with the very finest in Core Serpentis equipment, and baptized with the blood of Federation citizens, in due time. Until then, feel free to ask questions.. lest any more people try to profit. _____________________________________ Perpetually driven, your end is our beginning. |

[23] So let me get this straight.... A Gallente pod-pilot sold a military issue battleship to another Gallente pilot, who has intentions of using it, equipped with Serpentis weaponry, against the Gallente. I don't know whether to be more disturbed by this act, or to cheer on the pilot in his actions against the Federation. Either way, it's typical Gallente behavior. We now see that the Gallente rot and corruption has filtered down from its highest tiers. Ideas like loyalty, patriotism, and enlightened self-interest are obviously unknown to the Gallente population, though I don't know why I'm surprised by this. Keep up the good work, Gallenteans(sp?). |

[27] Ahem, Ms. Constantine...it's Caldaren, not Caldaran. Furthermore...I can't say I've heard of the Caldari government giving out military issue ships of the line to pod pilots to have them sold to other pilots actively supporting the Guristas. Perhaps I'm wrong, as I'm only recently paid attention to interstellar events. It's not a matter of nationalism, rather a matter of the price of patriotism. You have a national hero, given a gift of immeasurable price (heh, although it would appear that this price was not, in fact, immeasurable) who decides to deal it like some common garbage scow. And not just to any common pod pilot, but one who speaks openly on Galnet of using it against the Federation itself using Serpentis weaponry. I'd imagine any Caldari corporation would be ruined by the financial impact of such public disclosure. |

A worthy endeavour, as it should teach them not to be so open with their advanced military technology. You would think after the Imperial Issued Apocylypse battleship debocle, the other empires would wise up to the idea of using thier finest ships as bribes to capsuleers to do their bidding, was not in their best intrest. It saddens me, that even my own government is invloved in this very practice. But im sure they have such things under control. I do applaud you, DigitalCommunist... As you are one of the few who plan to use these troves of advanced technology as a weapon of war, instead of a trophy where the owners leave them permanantly fixed to the docking ring of thier home stations. |

Yes, the Caldari (along with Gallente) are second rate ship designers compared to the Serpentis and Guristas (it pains me to say that name). As for my thoughts on my previous ship: I called it a paperweight because I wasn't going to fly it, not when I could have 10+ other bships to fly. However, there are those who can put the massive powergrid to use and it's likely Digital is one of those few. _________________________________________________ There are no bad ideas, only bad implementations. |

[49] You forget that the technology which the gurista menace and serpentis base their designs on, is from the State and the Federation. With the public release of numurous bluprints, it is very easy for these rouge groups to improve upon the empires proven technology. Which marches back to my orignal statment, if the empires continue to throw their advanced technology at the masses, like arisocrats throw copper coins at the poor.. The empires technology will continue to be used and improved by thier enemies. This is a downward spiral that should be stopped. |

Isk.. plain and simple. There is a reason why the gallente navy still employs Thorax class cruisers, instead of the more advanced Diemos Class. Second generation technology is way too expensive to deploy on a massive scale. I don't have any information on how, federally issued Megathrons cost to produce.. But i'm sure it is at least 3x as much as a standard Megathron class battleship. From the empires point of view (all 4 of them) it is cost prohibitive to research and deploy advanced versions of thier ships simply because they don't have the resources to build them in sufficient scale. And that is why you see only a few advanced battleships out there, simply becuase the empires themselves can only produce so many.. that they mainly use them as tokens of gratitude to the capsuleers who work for them. And for this reason you see them being bought and sold for billions of isk, becuase of thier extreme rarity. The Guristas and Serpentis have more advanced battleships then thier empire counterparts simply becuase they have access to the resources to build them, and they take advantage of this. |

Isk.. plain and simple. There is a reason why the gallente navy still employs Thorax class cruisers, instead of the more advanced Diemos Class.

[59] All faction Mega's are Black. The Federate Megathron is Black with two pike's on the front. On one of these pikes I had mounted Fatal's head. I don't know if Digital has put any heads up on them yet. As for the stats, the Fed mega has the following bonuses over a normal mega: +1 low +3200 Struct +50 Drone +2500 Armor +525 shield +6 Mag sensor strength _________________________________________________ There are no bad ideas, only bad implementations. |
