400 Slaves ?

Sorkvild · Post by **Sorkvild** » Thu, 15. Sep 11, 13:56

Hey, I like challenges but how the heck I'm supposed to get 400 slaves and deliver them to a pirate station. Slaves don't grow in farms and you can't enslave passengers from transport mission.

Ideas & realiable tips are welcome

I may be wrong but if you board a hospital ship you can convert the passenger aboard that into slaves at a pirate station.

Hospital ships have wares called patients, but those cannot be turned into slaves. They just a ware for RP purposes from what I can tell.

Sadly most of those 'very hard' delivery missions are impossible in anycase. Better sticking to the 'deliver medical supplies' mission instead.

Well you can always do a bit of roleplay by keeping your enslaved captured pilots in a penal ship somewhere (for intelligence-gathering purposes of course!). Their numbers build up over time and the slave-drive missions from Pirate Bases will keep coming up.

Want to ROFL some more?

Try to stockpile and deliver 17k, 20k, 42k, 73k of Protein Paste to different terran stations in timeframes of 15-30 min. (without completed terran plot!). I was also asked to deliver 10k Water! Name it a "feature" of X3TC!

I also got missions to deliver 100k EC (that is quite easy) and 100k Sunrise Flowers or 100k Soja Beans (these are more of a challenge).

Yeah some to these missions are crazy. Sometimes if they need booze or weed you can just pick it up right from your complex (if have) and deliver.

I saw hospital ships, but never tried boarding these. I guess it will be massive rep drop for that ? What about choosing an alternate ship like casino or cruise ?

Teladi guy says I have 15mizuras for delivering 200-400 slaves (depends). Well boarding option takes some time too ...

Hah stockpiling bailed pilots, I did that once but it took so long to have 50 of them

Quite twisted, Alan. I like it.

Stealing buses is good way to acquire numerous slaves. Steal a TP which has passengers on board & you get the choice to either earn a small reward by taking them to their original destination or to take them to the nearest pirate base to enslave them.

Another alternative is to enslave marines which don't pass the interview. If you can afford to do so it's well worth hiring all the marines available at a station then sorting through them to pick out the best (if you just hire the best then it limits the opportunity for high quality marines respawning). This can often leave the player with several dozen relatively worthless marines. Best way to get your money back is to fly to a pirate base to enslave them & then wait for a pirate slave mission (you get much more per head waiting for the mission than simply selling them immediately to the pirate base).

There's no difference between a hospital, casino and cruise ship barring the name and the name of the passenger wares.
Rep hit is exactly the same as for any TL. That is to say negligable.

I once ejected several thousand "patients" from a captured hospital. After that I liked to imagine Grand Exchange had lots of frozen bodies floating around in it...

Most deliver x amount of wares missions can be pre-delivered before taking the mission. Tho 400 slaves seems extreme.

I'm thinking of doing something similar, perhaps just as a sadistic way of keeping my enemies of war. What do you think the absolute crappiest way to fly would be? A TS with just Cargo Life Support?

Nonono you get a TL, pack it with booze, weed and slaves. And call it the pleasure palace or something.
A place where lonely spacers can go to have their needs seen to.. ;p
I'm sure they aren't fussy as to gender or race...

That'd be a great twist to the old "Tour of a Lifetime" BBS missions.

Paranid, Boron and Split.... What a horrible thought.

Oh I dunno... Always wanted to bang a three eyed chick...

And just IMAGINE what a boron chick could do with her legs...

I'll add a disclaimer to my last post: If you don't know what I'm talking about already, don't Google it.

Sorry, too late there (and they weren't even enslaved)! http://forum.egosoft.com/viewtopic.php?p=3605511
