I kinda wonder if the guy that posted this even checks it anymore, but anyway-
The H***** and the E****** won't be a problem if you join the V*******. The H***** only have one character, and it doesn't have an escape pod. The H***** won't even exist as a major race, because you have to do the U***** E**** missions to free the H*****. The E****** only have two systems, and the H***** doesn't have any. I say go with the V******* and the U***** E****. Do the U***** E**** shipping missions, DO NOT RESCUE THE V****** DEFECTOR. Abort the mission. Go to pax, pick up the V****** mission, but don't complete it. Go back to U***** E**** space, finish their missions, get their ships, by a C****** if you can. Then go to V****** space and do the V****** mission, and follow their string.. As for the strands, I'd go with the I******, because you can always capture a couple of Zs, and use them to help capture an A* W******. Buy a couple of F*** Ss, load up on credits and weoponry, then you are ready to Capture P**, destroy Fs, and just wreck havoc on anything and everything. Including the North and South tip R, V*******, and espacially U***** E****. All you have to do is Destroy a couple of R******** in any system and they'll like you again.
By the way, Capturing plants means Hailing them and D******** T******. If you have a good C****** R***** then the planet will send out their D****** F****. Destroy the fleet, D***** T****** again, and then the planet will agree to pay you T******. On the map your legal status will be O*******. The Planet will p(ay you like 2,000-10,000 credits a day, which adds up if you have a slow H********* J*** T***. :rolleyes:
I hope you understand what i just wrote- i don't think i do.....
