    ...in favour of the new Idris FRIGATE!

    Slightly old news, but the Idris has been redesigned and reclassified as a Frigate, complete with its own Mission Ops Room, Med Bay, Armoury, Brig, Captain/XO/Crew Quarters, and a bunch of redundant bulkheads. Smile

    Below is the link to the relevant Jump Point magazine issue. Enjoy!

    Yeah saw that awesome news, guess your Idris will be our mobile base of operations Smile

    Also is it ok for you to link a copy of Jump Point, seeing how it supposed to be for Subscribers only?

    Yeah, they don't really care about Jump Point being disseminated; they figure it's going to happen anyway, with or without their approval.

    Yeh bet your happy! Although I see a few idris's being popped fairly early on in the game. Will be a prime target for trophy hunters/trollers.

    Will certainly be cool to have a walk round your ship when it comes about. I don't think I could bring myself to spend that amount of money...Constellation will be my biggest purchase I'm sure.

    That's why I'm not leaving dock without at least a full crew complement and an escort of three fighters.

    P.S. The rumour mill has it that the new, enlarged Idris will mean more fighter capacity. Let's hope so!

    So...apparently, with the sudden increase in the size of the Idris, comes the sudden increase of crew requirements as well! I have a ton of bunks (read: probably around 24) that need to be filled, ladies and gents, so feel free to submit your names for consideration!

    EDIT:

    Current positions that are open include (but are not limited to):

    Executive Officer
    Chief Tactical Officer
    Chief Engineer
    Chief Operating Officer
    Chief Security Officer
    Commander, Air Group
    Helm Control Officer
    Damage Control Officer
    Weapons Control Officer
    Pilot, Combat
    Pilot, Search and Rescue

    Not to mention a host of regular crew positions.

    Me and my super hornet would love to help out in the piloting combat arena. I also have great XO abilities. Cool
