Smuggler Archive

Smuggler Alliance Ace... have always loved space flight sims.... was hoping being a smuggler with JTLmight be something like the old Privateer I and II games.. there is still hope.

Captain on the Insolent Minx - YT1300

And I still us my tier 4 fighter for hunting, till I have the cash for a Krayt or Firespray....

4/4/4/3 Freelance (I fly for CorSec, but that's just for the clearance...I swear!).

Need to just go run the Vette mission and then I can finally pop my YT.

I'm a 1/1/X/X SA pilot, got to 3/3/3/3 Imp, but decided, Freelance was more Smugglerish. If anyone on Ahazi needs a Gunner for a MP ship, send me a tell. I'm a BMF when it comes to shootin'

I'm a SA pilot on two servers (4/4/4/4 on Kauri and 3/4/4/4 on Starsider). The thing I love about piloting is that you can actually watch your skills increase and not in an artificial CL sort of way. I remember struggling through the early tiers of SA on Kauri, but when I decided to create a new character on Starsider, I was amazed at how much easier it was the second time around. Now I completely get why some people Ace a squadron and drop it all to do another. Way too much fun!

I ravenously consumed JTL when it came out... And I haven't really gone a day when I connected and didn't blow something up in space since. Heck, I commandeered a guildmate's house for my own use because my stock of high level parts was causing my YT to get too full on a regular basis.

I've been cruising around in a Bel-22 that I picked up and, while I don't generally like to boast, I'm really pleased with its performance andI'm proud enough of it thatI feel I haveto share it with someone. Apologies to those who find this uninteresting.

yep and I'veheard ofthem going as high as 17.5 even 18, so I've "heard" but never seen. But like I said my YT is ONE of the fastest on MY server.

3433 Smugglers alliance have died several times trying to pick up the cargo in lok take it to dant pick up in dant and then run like hell! I've died 4 times so far i just can't beat waves of 4 tie advanced/interceptors w/shields that are concurrent with the wave of 4 awings taht come from rsf after the hutt ship.

I hate A-wings, Tie's w/ shield!

See sig for info

And yes i have a YT-1300 unfortunatly not a crew i tend to use my krayt more than anything for sheer power in pve and amazing shields which several tier 5 ships struggle to get through.

Oh, yes! Mastered pilot for the Smuggler Alliance a couple of weeks after launch. Recently mastered Storm Squadron on another server and just needinga few hundred thousand xp to master Smuggler Alliance again on Starsider... all solo.So yes, I like flying.

This is a known bug but can be worked around. Nestle in among the docile Hutt ships and fire off a couple of salvoes at the Rancor Clan to get them moving. After some initial maneuvering they'll start firing at you and since they're such lousy shots they'll hit the Hutts as much as they hit you. This will make them wake up and join the fight. It makes it all a little easier.

Master Pilot for the Smugglers Alliance with my pride and joy, "Crimson Star", my YT. Although my ship of choice is my juicy Krayt Heavy Fighter that's got a bite worse than it's bark. I fly alot. Space just doesn't seem to get old.
