Still haven't started my elite career from scratch...

But I will eventually! Just haven't worked up the courage to start all over again.

The recent update to elite, Power Play, has been another big positive step forward. The new ships add a nice variation, new missions have finally allowed me to follow my path in the game of smuggling and the political system has allowed hardcore eliterites to follow a leader and get more involved with the shaping of the galaxy.

As soon as the update came out I jumped into one of the new ships, the Diamondback Scout, and started smuggling narcotics, weapons and even a few slaves. Sneaking in and out of stations without being scanned is a nice challenge, and the large pay-outs for relatively small cargo hauls is very nice and allows me to use a small, nibble ship.

One of the reasons (excuses...?) I've not started again is because I'm very close to being able to get a Federal Dropship. It's not the most desirable ship in the galaxy, but I've always thought it had a simple, functional charm. Also, I'm not in a position to put many hours into the game at the moment, and if I was to start again I would like to be able to sit down and really enjoy playing without worrying about time constraints too much.
