Rockomax Supremacy: 1.0 Edition!

[Whirligig Girl]

Gene recently discovered this letter sitting on his desk this morning.

I have decided that this company needn't only service the Kerbal Space Program. We are starting our own space program, and severing our service to the Kerbal Space Program. As such, we are chartering a new agency, the RockomeXploration Systems. Our rocket is in development now, and we intend to commercialize space. That said, we haven't completed our launch site yet, and we would very much like to utilize your Launch Facilities and Vehicle Assembly Facilities. Thank you very much.

Gene was not particularly happy about it.

The CEO of Rockomax then posted this wanted ad in the newspapers:

We need engineers and astronauts to build and fly our new Rockomax-only rockets. The astronauts will be contained in a stolen borrowed Mk1-2 Command Pod from Kerlington

So, because you want to get payed a good 500 funds or something, design the RockomeXploration System's rocketship.

So build a rocket using only Rockomax parts and go as far as you can with it! You are allowed only a few stolen bits and they must be returned! Including the Command Pod!

Rules

You can only use one Kerlington Mk1-2 pod

The pod can not be destroyed, even if the Kerbals survive. (It has to be put back at Kerlington!)

You can use any amount of Rockomax parts that you want.

You can use the RAPIER engine (Because both C7 Aerospace and Rockomax Conglomerate developed it)

If you do use the RAPIER, you can also steal one Ram Air Intake or two Structural Intakes, but they must be recovered. (So you can take them back to C7 Headquarters)

You can only use STOCK parts, no nerfs or buffs, or any part mods that add parts under the Rockomax name.

This is a stock challenge. No mods. (except visual ones or information mods like Kerbal Engineer.)

You can use as much as eight struts, but these do not have to be recovered.

You can use as much as two of the Clamp-o-tron Jr. docking ports.

Remember, ALL landings require a return, so Eve and Jool is very hard.

Points

Destroy the pod (-100)

Lose the pod (-75)

Recover the pod after losing it. (+60)

Use struts (-5 points per strut)

Use docking ports (-100 per port, seriously don't use these things unless the payoff is gonna be huge.)

Launch into orbit around Kerbin (+20)

--Orbit any body other than Kerbin = Landing points times 2/3 (0.666...)***

--Flyby of any body other than Kerbin = Landing Points times 1/3 (0.333...)***

Land on Mun or Minmus (+40)

Use an air intake (-5 points per intake)

Land on Gilly (+42)

Land on Ike, Dres, Bop, or Pol (+50)

Land on Eeloo, Vall, or Moho (+90)

Land on Duna (+100)

Land on Tylo or Laythe (+120)

Land on Eve (+400)

Very low Sun flyby (+100)

Land on Jool (+5000)

Orbit Jool (+400)

Lose/Kill a Kerbal (-100)

Use the Not-Rockomax Micronode (-5000)

Plant a flag (+10)

Plant a flag on Tylo, Laythe, Eve. (+25)**

Recover parts. (+1/100 points for each fund recovered from Rockomax parts only)

*Don't actually attempt this, only one person ever managed this that I know of and they used a bunch of not-rockomax stuff. If you REALLY want to try, Jool landing is when you are at 0 meters, there's no real surface.

**You must still recover the Kerbal, and you can't use any ladders. The flag must be the Rockomax flag.

***exculding Eve, Laythe, and Jool. and Orbit overwrites Flyby, Landing overwrites Orbit (they don't stack)

Can we get a badge? A photo shopped Rocketmax flag possibly?

I achieved orbit around Kerbin, Duna, and Ike, and landed on Mun and Minmus.

Pod was recovered, but scarcely. Touchdown speed on Kerbin was around 100m/s, so everything but the pod was destroyed.

I used 4 Struts, no other non-Rockomax parts.
