« Margarite is only 3 days away from being able to fly a Retriever | Main | Margarite will not be able to afford a Retriever before downtime; but may be later after downtown she will afford her next ship. »

Present habits with skills training include using Eve monitor plans and also filling up skill areas with all possible and affordable skills to level two.

With Eve Monitor, Margarite has a one year plan for about 5 ships. She needs at least 137 days until she can fly a Hulk. She also has plans for a tech II cruiser and some advanced other ships. All together and including better manufacturing skills and better processing skills that will be a one year plan. It will cost less than 200 million for all the skill books. The most expensive skill costs 64 million. Then the ships must be bought.

She now has started at the bottom of the skills list to fill up trade and social. These are better than half filled now with owned skill books. She also has a fair amount of mechanic and industry skill books bought now. And her science skills are coming along. She has 31 science skills in total to buy and many of these are costing 10 million each which she can just not afford yet.

There that is the whole list for today. If you add it all up, she is missing 22 skill books from the present possible total. She has outside of these a handful of skill books owned that can not be trained just yet and are part of her plans. These extra skill books are her first books for outfitting a ship in the plans. These are, in fact, skills needed to fly the Helios well. Other players have been teaching her this about ships and training.
