As the topic states, have we confirmed which xenon ships are flyable in 7.0/Timelines?
F, B, and H can be picked up in the sandbox as Timelines rewards. It sounds like the PE can be captured? Do we know if legacy Xenon ships can also be capped (I, K, P, M, etc.)?
Thanks!

Legacy ships can't be captured. That's why the new Xenon ships were introduced.

No, the K and I cannot be capped. The old versions of the P and S also cannot be captured, but the new PE and SE can be capped via bailing.
Picard: You may test that assumption at your convenience.

All the new Xenon ships introduced in patch 7 can be captured (and also feature heavily in Timelines), these being: F, B, PE, SE & H. H also drops a quantum shard on destruction that will help you on your quest to collect more Xenon stuff. SE is interesting as a tradeship as it has a universal cargohold, able to carry anything (except Protectyon). Can only mine ores/silicon, but can carry liquid, solids & containers.

Re: Which Xenon ships are flyable in 7.0?
I've completed Timelines and in my sandbox game I've destroyed a number of Xenon H's, but never got the Quantum Shard. And in the existential crisis I'm not finding Hs anymore, only Fs, Bs, Is, Ks, Ms, Ps and Ns, I think even the SEs and PEs are not appearing anymore. Is that a bug or due to me not having started the quettanauts quest yet? Too busy with the crisis.Starlight_Corporation wrote: ↑Fri, 5.

Re: Which Xenon ships are flyable in 7.0?
Something I recently found out through another topic is that it is not just any H that drops it, must be a 'Space Control H', which usually stick to Xenon space (but sometimes join in the Xenon sector attacks). From playing the Crisis, it is mainly I's K's & their fighters as you noticed. rest is much less common to rare in the crisis event (don't think I've ever seen an H in a crisis event)MakerLinux wrote: ↑Mon, 8.
