RoninFrog

After finishing a No Contracts Career, I looked through Challenges and Mission Ideas for some inspiration. Here's what I found. And I thought, "160 points for Tylo! Wow!" ...so here goes. It's gonna be another Mission Report of @RoninFrog attempting (and possibly failing) a challenge. The first thing is to get Jeb to orbit! Here's what I got. The goal here is going to be to make Jeb as uncomfortable as possible. This SSTO has a TWR of over 4. Jeb said his last prayers, hopped out of his pod, and landed in the Kerbasket. Good so far! How are you doing, Jeb? Feelin' a little... toasty? Don't worry, the worst part hasn't come yet. How flat can Jeb's face get? Let's find out! Upwards of 10 gees while burning for orbit. Don't worry, I bet these are standard procedures at NASA. The Jeb is released into orbit! More coming. Very soon.

Epilogue / Sarumans' Leg 4: Kerbin Well, that's all, folks!

Only one texture mod, i.e. Restock.

Maxed out the KSC in my No Contracts Career! Notable landings (in order): Mun in 30 parts. Minmus without SAS or a pilot. An unintentional Ike landing. Duna in 30 parts. Early career Eeloo landing. 2 kerbal Gilly landing. Pol in one stage. Tylo, also in the same stage. Vall landing. You get the Single Stage Jool 5 idea. Laythe landing. Final Bop landing. Full mission report here!

Done! Well, not technically finished yet... I still have to get Jeb and Val back to Kerbin, but the KSC is maxed out!

When people split the rocket using a TVR adapter and then "join" it back together using another one. AAAAAAAAAHHH!! Only ONE of those nodes is actually connected, dude! It's so terrible because it looks symmetrical but you know it's really not.

Sarumans' Leg 3: Tylo

Nope! Only ever made one when I was bored. I've also never used the RAPIER engine!! TUBM doesn't know what delta-V is.

I was actually adjusting my laptop screen. [Edits save file]

GROSS

9+ Yeah!

Sarumans' Leg 2: Pol

Yay! @HansonKerman

30+

I probably average about an hour and a half per day. I got the game last August, so about 300 days. Oof! Only about 450 hours!

All this meticulous designing and booster recovery was getting a bit tedious. Something had to be done. So I let Jeb design a rocket or two. Oh, @HansonKerman, this might interest you. Sarumans' Leg 1: Munar refill
