I have 43k, I'll go get an extracter. I can afford it, and it may be the best thing. however I may buy some more ebks for hull as I am getting lowish. In fact I have got loads for all armours well a lot so I can handle the prices, I probably should get more for level1 armour repairs so I will see. However probably until I actually get enough cash to buy extra things I may not try, all weapons that would help are outside my price range but once I get a bit more cash say 100-200k I may try to get another gun, I find combat to be a more challenging process.
