I'm roleplaying with myself. Two Kerbal nations (US and Russia) both share the KSC. Each nation gets to launch 3 times before they switch with the other nation, and so on. For the Kerbal analogue of Russia I use the Tantares mod, and US gets to play stock. By now I'm about 25 launches in, and having a blast roleplaying the Apollo and N1 program. The "Americans" have lost 2 astronauts (both crashed into the Mün) and I nearly lost Cosmonaut Jebediah Kermanski in my last mission. I should really get the mod with the other launchpads.

The mission wasn't actually meant to land on Eve, just do an orbit. But, after spending all that money, I thought I might as well just land. As it is Bill, I will make it my number 1 priority to get him home. Gives me a chance to find more cost effective ways of interplanetary travel. I like this!

My first "successful" mission to another planet. After completing all my objectives in the Kerbin SOI I thought it was time to go where no Kerbal has gone before. So I went to Eve. I think I've blown nearly all my money on a 1 way mission, but I think it's worth it!

I have been building a Docking + Refueling station in orbit around the moon. It's main components are a TKS and a Fueltank (Mainstructure) and in the sideway docks I have a Soyuz Capsule (to get back to Kerban) and a Munlander (for multiple visits to the Mun). Not as fancy as most of the stuff I see hear, but I'm hoping its going to work.

Thanks for the welcome, when I'm near my KSP machine I'll be sure to make screenshots (F12 on steam right?) My first 3-4 Mun landings ended in disaster, especially not knowing about the save button. But being stranded is better than outright dying I guess.

Hello all. I've been playing KSP for half a month now and I have been enjoying myself greatly. I've found dozens of helpful tutorials, mods and posts on this forum, so I thought, why not get an account. I've managed to do most smaller things ingame (orbit, land on the Mun and Minmus and build a spacestation), I must admit I havn't bothered learning the rendezvouz and docking procedures, I'm a little impatient. I'm in love with the old rockets from the past, and have been using mods to recreate some of the old capsules and launch vehicles, hopefully even more in the future. Well, I guess thats about it.
