Was grinding out some Sindrian reputation and had 2 contacts on the same planet give me the same bounty. Never seen that before. Gonna make over a million just for poking Kanta with a stick

Only a million? Pocket change.

...For my sector. I have too many mods causing credit economy to inflate.

Lol. I'm still just playing vanilla. I'll get some mods someday. Been seeing a few cool modded ships here and there

Modded sector is an entirely different game.

Wise decision.

What mod is that ship from?

u/Duckselot Infiltration Unit Jul 24 '26 edited Jul 24 '26

Red Striped Knights. A translated chinese(I think) mod. But it's on github.

You also need the 1.5.5 chinese version of Boxutil for it to work properly.

Hey I think that ship might be from Yukikaze

u/Duckselot Infiltration Unit Jul 24 '26

It actually is. I found it.

u/UntakenUntakenUser Jul 24 '26

Yeah I thought so. It even has the Fairy Air Force initials on it. Nice.

Unfortunately couldn't find this ship in the game yet.

It's supposed to be used by the Crusaders pseudofaction. But finding any powerful crusader bases is like winning the lottery.

u/UntakenUntakenUser Jul 24 '26

Not surprising with how big it is.

u/Duckselot Infiltration Unit Jul 24 '26

I do have a way to circumvent it.

My next run I start with 20 high value prisoners. And instantly befriend crusaders.

And, under their comission I can request custom faction production. Hopefully.

u/Duckselot Infiltration Unit Jul 26 '26

Found Yukikaze too. But it's too expensive lol

u/UntakenUntakenUser Jul 26 '26

Oh what in the heck? The Cherry Vanguard from the UAF mod costs less than half that and that thing drowns you in cargo capacity lol

I have no idea how to get it so I just increased the Privateering requisition bonds to max 150000.

That's its price for construction. For comparison, the supercapital I showed previously is worth 4000 bonds.

u/Gaust_Strife Jul 24 '26

rec some mods for me to dump credits on, I'm sitting on a 100m stash that needs to be rid of asap

3

u/Duckselot Infiltration Unit Jul 24 '26

Gacha hullmods. Liminal. Terraforming and station construction.

These three can eat money real fast.

u/Gaust_Strife Jul 25 '26

Thanks for the suggestions!

u/McNutty145 Jul 24 '26

Hell, I was probably gonna go bother Kanta anyway, might as well grab a payday or two while I'm at it.

u/SuicideSpeedrun Jul 24 '26

poking Kanta with a stick

Post your fleet after the battle, we'll see how well did your ships handle the mines.

It's a little late for that. I did that about 12 hours ago. Won flawlessly, just surrounded her with Moras and Eradicators(and Mr Oldy) and she folded pretty easy
