Say, I remember when the mining barge changes were annouced that they were also introducing a mining frigate. However, I have not seen hide nor hair of this new ship, either in BPOs/BPCs, ships or even flying around? What has been said about this ship and/or was it in a devblog that I missed?

If you don't follow the rules, neither will I.

A year passed: winter changed into spring, spring changed into summer, summer changed back into winter, and winter gave spring and summer a miss and went straight on into autumn... until one day...

This.

In the same expansion that will make the mining frigates into logi frigates they will release the ORE frigate. That is set for the winter expansion. Now, it probably will be released on Sisi first. Speaking of which, you can't connect to it until Monday. THey are making some sizable changes to it.

The ORE frigate could be amoung the Monday Sisi changes.

Ah, I see, thanks. I was kind of looking forward buying one just for S&G's, being that I fly barges and exhumers. :)

I predict epic shenanigans that shall slightly affect the cost of minerals! >:P

IOW, I expect a lot of people to try out the new ship, have fun, get board, and give them to rookies years later.

Why is everyone drooling over a frigate? Oh... ninja mining. 8)
