I just played the mission where you have to help Alex to protect the convoy to XT-41 and destroyed the station debris there. I got Wyvern MK2 and some 8 other stuff.

Yeah, some of the patrol station debris have goodies in them, I always blow them up.

Fort Russ - destroyed station

Found another one - one of the destroyed stations gave me Wyvern, 2x Kali, Emerald and some other stuff.

Hephaestus (thanks to Goblin Wizard) - I don't know if anyone mentioned that but you can get some good stuff very early in the game (right after you got Mastiff). When you flight to Elio for repainting you go through the Hephaestus (you had to navigate between automatic turrets). There are 3 rings of these turrets and lots of wrecks around. Blowing wrecks outside the rings is pointless but inside there are two big (flat type) transport hulls that drops nice stuff. 1st gave me: Emerald, Armageddon, Sigil, Avenger, and Trident fighter. 2nd: Shining, Lycathrope, Mortar, Overbank, Berserk Laser and Hrimithurs (sth like that) fighter. After several tries I realized that types of armament are fixed and only quantity of items changes (I can get up to 8 items from one wreck) so you can get 600-1000K worth stuff depending of your luck (fighter are always one, others may be multiple). To get inside you have to flight down and go under the turrets. You can start from the top too but wrecks are at the bottom so going down is faster. Beware the turrets. Mastiff goes down in 3-4 shots from a single turret. The system is totally peaceful (maybe except gates area) so that's easy money .

Hi everybody!
That's my first post, but I'm playing Starwolves since lot of years with Nbr 1...

I'm actually trying to discover the two big (flat type) transport hulls that drops stuff but I don't find...
I destroy all wreckages I can find but nothing drop :confused:
Can You be more precise please (with a screenshot may be?)

Thanks a lot

The Hephestus one spawns after a certain quest, if you dont find it before, than you did not get that quest.

I blew up some hulls inside the ring and found nothing at first while on my way to Elio. I decided to come back after Dyonisos (MSF path) and found 1 stash only, in a red beacon asteroid: 2 Asmodeus, 1 Trident, rest is junk (berserker laser MK II, Gremlin and 2 more drops)

Ok, thanks!

I tought that I can found some stuff right after I got Mastiff...

Some info on Pegasus stash...
There most definitely is at least one stash roid with various goodies (3,4 and 4th gen ships, guns, missiles and other) in the same cloud as stash nav point. Just go up and ascend a bit. It is one of the topmost roids (with the red light).
As most stashes it's load is decided on sector entry, but you can bee-line straight to it before going to Paymaster so you can get the stuff you want without wasting "too" much of your time.

On to the other stash...
The quest stash from the transports is NOT decided on sector entry, but on spawn. Just save before going back to Paymaster's station. There are of course two fights standing between you and the transports, but easy enough to to go through them couple of times.

There may be more roid stashes (the script file suggests so), but I cant find them, just lot of fakes.

And on the matter of Hep system stash...
While going through the scripts I found that the condition making the stash appears is achieved after returning to Placid something Station after Elio. An indication of the condition being true is the change in your mail (the one from Ternie starting with "Great Partner!" or something like that is deleted)

Lastly...
WTF is this?
