New London Ship Dealer

If you are stuck in a mission and do not know how to continue, this is the place to ask for help. Missing that elusive Level 10 Shield? Don''t know where to find the lost Ohtori ship? This is the only place where spoilers are allowed!

New London Ship Dealer

When your buddy Tobias? sends you to new london to get a ship is somthing supposed to happen .. I get there and the same ships are for sale as on Leeds.

I'm just wondering if a scripted encounter is supposed to happen.

Thanks

No, I'm pretty sure you're just supposed to go to New London and buy a new ship. Nothing special happened for me, at least. I bought a Cavalier, but upgraded to a Piranha as soon as I could and then I got rid of THAT at my first opportunity. I'm not a big fan of Bretonian ships and weapons. Ships are too ugly and the weapons are too weak.

EDIT - I DO like their Clydesdale freighter quite a lot, actually. It has lots of weapon hardpoints, handles almost as good as a HF, generous cargo space and very well priced. I tended to steer clear of the freighters in SP but after buying a Clydesdale in MP and using it for a while I'd fully recommend it as a viable ship to work through some of the Bretonia/Kusari SP missions. Might want to get your hands on a dedicated fighter before you leave Kusari for Rheinland though.

The ship prices are the same in New London as they are in Leeds, don't know what Tobias was babbling about. I went to New London first, but just after buying a ship I got jumped by Bounty Hunters and had to reload to the point just after I met Tobias. Since the prices where the same I bought my ship in Leeds, and there was never any difference. Maybe the lack of a dynamic economy didn't allow what the designers intended to happen there, so they just give you cash instead. The $25,000 or so Tobias gives you allows you to buy any ship on Leeds that you want.
