Jack's done 5 attempts so far, and already got 2 x 9 runs BPC's out, so we're ahead of the game already.
I bought enough RAM, Morphite and Construction blocks for 18 hulks and shipped it all to Goram. Have put 8 Covetors on build before I ran out of slots. There's enough mins in the Invention tab in the office to build the 2 remaining Covetor BPCs in there which I can do tomorrow. I've got all the T2 comps coming out of the cooker tomorrow evening, and will ship them to Goram and sell to the corp at cost price then stick the Hulks on the boil.
We need 5 more Covetor BPC's and the mins to build them - or just buy the ships off the market: build cost is 18mill incl BPC so you're only saving 2mill per ship.
Unless we're really lucky and get another print, each Hulk will cost 60mill. Get your orders in, cos I'll sell the excess on the market for profits. Usual rap about personal use not for resale etc.

Just an FYI, (and because I didn't know it either, the 60 mil is just the cost of 1 run of a Hulk off the bpc after all the bits we had to put into it to even attempt invention. So to build a Hulk we still need the T2 comps, which Friz is providing at a great price, and covetors, which the corp can build if we have enough bpc's.friznit wrote: Unless we're really lucky and get another print, each Hulk will cost 60mill.

Sorry I can't answer your question, but I did want to share the knowledge that I did have.
Also, we'll be mixing the net profit from the ones we sell back into inventing more of them. It's a nice isk stream that doesn't take huge amounts of work, and would produce a steady flow of low-cost Hulks to members for mining.
Anyone interested in helping out, we'll be needing Gallente Starship engineering datacores on a regular basis, and Sybiotic Figure-whatzamits, (don't know if you use LP RP or what to get them, but they were SPENDY!) Oh, and I might try to talk the boss into a Covetor BPO, cost dependant.

Sorry if I sent the wrong message, the corp has everything for all the Hulks already, we just need the Covetors, which we could easily buy outright as well. We're just trying to save as much as we can, and who wants a covetor after they get a Hulk?
Actually, even after draining the coffers buying the two BS bpo's, the corp has had a solid isk flow. The miners out in NR have been reaping the benefits of good ore, which the corp has been buying minerals from, and using in construction and for sale when the market is up a bit. Also, we've built a few BS's, (before we ran out of Trit and Pye), and cyno field gens, some T2 comps out in Jita, the corp has been busy making isk to keep all the stuff floating, and doing rather well! So getting these Hulks built and in the hands of our pilots is priority over selling any for yet even more profits. We'd love a good turnout for the maiden voyage of the yet un-named uber mining vessel this coming weekend!

Yup, those barges can stay in PB - not economically viable to jump them back just for this.
I've donated 3 Covetors I had lying about to help bring the costs down but I wasn't using them anyway. Any more that are going free would be appreciated to save us time more than anything, but there won't be a 'trade in' value - getting a hulk for half price is a pretty good deal already I think

I've put some hulks on the boil. They take 2 days each so I've only put 3 on for the moment. 1 will come out Thursday 2300 and the other two will be out Saturday midnight, so only one ready for this weekend. I'll keep building them in ones and twos so we can get hold of them quicker (otherwise we'd have to wait 18 days to get them all).
They're on as corp builds, so either Dres, Fear or Aki can pull them off when they're done.
