Room for a drunken Finn?

[Colev]

Hello peeps and peepettes!

After getting more hours on the KSP Demo than most of the games I own on Steam, I bit the bullet and bought the full version a week ago.

I began the career mode and started to gather the oh so precious science.

After several nice explosions it was time to hit the YouTube and the KSP Wiki for several hours for the endless quest for knowledge.

Loads of mistakes and mishaps ensued until I finally got to the orbit and the next step was to get to the orbit of the Mun.

Today, I finally got there with the Perkele Mk III and the amount of science was mindblowing.

So the next step is to actually land on the Mun and after that the rest of the planets.

I'll be stalking around and posting stupid comments to other peoples fine threads, until that ..

Fly Safe,

Colev

Happy (recent) Independence Day, and welcome to the forum.

Welcome to the forums, and don't be afraid to ask for help if it's needed. I maintain a small(ish) list of tutorials and useful tools called the Drawing Board, which is linked in my signature; feel free to browse around the materials linked there as well

Also, as an avid player of Crusader Kings II (as well as KSP), I find your choice of ship names amusing.

Only if you share!

Nice written Post, it shows that the community just gained a valuable member. Also, why do you use ''Perkele'' as a shipname? (Its a curse-word right?)

Welcome, ye drunken finn!

I though "Perkele" is not a cuss. I thought it is the truth!

Welcome from a drunken Norwegian.

Welcome. Best ship name. Now I'm thinking of re-naming this one:

To the, 'Does My Bum Look Big In This?' or maybe, 'The Fat Bar Steward'. Not sure yet.

Welcome

That was a terrible hangover, but luckily it is getting over now or as we say in Finland "Uuteen nousuun."

Most of the day I've been doing this:

Colev no function beer well without.

About the ship naming, 'Perkele' indeed is a fairly used swear word in Fin and I only find it appropriate since that is what I'm screaming at my monitor most of the time.

Thank you all for your kind words and bonus points go to larsmaehlum, always liked your (as in Norwegians) style of drinking.

Fly Safe,

Colev

Nice! I made it to the mun in the demo with the ACE-VALKERY MK8 then landed with the MK 15 and 52MK's later I had 6 Mun landings a rover and a return. (on MK38 I bought the game)

No Scott Manley needed:)

Now making it to the Mun and back is cake to me,

You will get better way better! My advice try to remember that feeling of being a noob in a new game because it will where off and it's nice to be nostalgic some times, and if you can save your old demo ships in a folder some where, as a time capsule type deal.

I know I miss the ACE-VALKERYs even if they where just crap.

HAVE FUN!

And pm if you need help with planes;)

Drunken Finn, you are most certainly welcome here. Many a mission has failed while I got up to get more rye whisky.
