That would play perfectly into the concept of introducing System Colonization next year - it would give us a reason to build new colonies - all the refugees from the Sol System will need new homes
We never saw Tony Soprano die either... or Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid... or Shane. But if I look in my heart, I know he didn't make it out. The Federation won again, and everyone focuses on the shiny Starship Enterprise rather than the shock troops and the brutal halls of justice. ;-)
The earthstrike is a plausible route as well (and with a no-atmosphere gaming engine, we're never going to get close up so the coding isn't a huge resource cost!)
Oh there are ways, you'd need to sprint back and sell exp data. A fast 'jumper' ship could do that in 2-4 hours depending where you are. Happy to help of you need tips to get back quickly and safely.
@modernspectrumgaming I might. Haven't started playing again yet but I'm in a Beluga with 55ly in spleich odj c9 something. I landed on a fleet carrier back in May 2021. Same CMDR name if you want to throw me a friendy
Drop your build into Spansh and see what route it comes out with on the Galaxy Plotter. I know I can Colonia to Sol in about 3hr 30m with a 50/60ly ship. See what it offers you. Alternativly get to a DSSA Fleet Carrier with a Sidewinder to purchase, sell the nav data (slight surchage to FC) and fast trael back with an exploding sidey
This is a hot take and I’m here for it! They’re forcing us to take steps away from the bubble lol
We're here to feed your need for hot (but considered) takes. Welcome!
A sub and a like simple for the Blake's 7 reference 😉 Still one of my fav sci-fi series
Oh if only a million subs were as simple as pointing out the dangers of British Sci-Fi and happy endings! Welcome aboard.
I suspect the last titan is on a kamikaze mission...draw as many human resources to Sol, and go boom! And I recall Blake's 7 ;)
When Titans go boom, Titans leave behind caustic clouds. Not as big as a planet... at least not yet.

To cross even more genres, the new ships and the new code feels like a Chekov's Gun to me.
Technically, Avon didn't die on screen... but I also still remember that fateful finale!

Well, if it is a British ending then I won't need to grind a Sol pass, will I?
FDev has lifted the need for Permits in Sirius and Sol, so you can share and enjoy the despair over a nice brew.
I'm thinking Babylon 5 - A Call to Arms. Or, do an Expanse and throw the Titan at Earth in its death throes...

I was on my way to Sol, in my Vulture, to save the day, but ehm.... well... I was stopped. Somehow.
Problems with interdiction?
@@modernspectrumgaming The Thargoids peeled me out of Hyperspace. But unlike the old times on the Commodore 64, I lost 😅
At 13,500ly South of Sol not sure i can do anything
