I just found a Derelict cruiser in very early game while investigating an anomaly in a gas giant.

I dunno if lucky or...

5232742 I always fail that anomaly for some reason, but at least I know what I'd get if I didn't.

How much battle power does that thing have and is it any good?

5232742 The most I get are Midnight Rider Frigates

5232779 I don't know if it's randomly generated or not, but the one I got had 128 Military power and 1200 hull points, not too bad for early-mid game.

5232904 Yeah, that sounds good for early game

5232919 Here's a tip, save the game when the anomaly is about 90% done, then load the save again if you get nothing, it loads in like two seconds and since it's based on chance, you'll get it eventually.

5232939 My main game, I got the anomaly multiple times in this one game, is ironman so I couldn't do it. But I'll definitely usebthatvtechnique in my other games.

5232995 Dat Mineral and energy credit count doe.

5233130 Pffff, that's nothing.

Now there's some resources. My sectors aren't even max taxed, either.

(Of course, I'm late game era at this point.)

5232995 I don't get it.
