    • Voinian Cruiser


      Hey everyone, I am trying out the voinians now and i have completed the mission where u attack the bakka system to gain the voinian frigate. I have been trying multiple strings lately, but i really wanna try this one out. How do u get the Voinian Cruiser?

    • As I remember you need to go up to the systems near the Emalgha to continue the string. You get to shoot lots of wooden ships so don't be too worried about these. Unless of course you can't outrun an Emalgha ship in which case one mission might be a little tricky. Good luck.

      Yes, I believe that is the next Voinian mission string...Go pick on the Emalgha. Sometime after I helped out in the mission where you destroy the world north of Emalgha I was able to get the Voinian Cruiser.

    • You're both correct---the specific place you need to go is the Fridon system, on the planet Denlon.

    • Completing that mission bit also gives you access to some pretty nice technology....

    • Yes, nice - but pretty heavy. In fact, ironically really the Voinians can carry it the easiest, when they don't really need any more armour :).

    • Very true... but, every little bit helps. 😄

      And how would you know! I wonder if my stalwart GM has been changing sides lately... 😛

    • Just remember that you need a lot of credits to buy a Voinian Cruiser.

    • Thanks to everyone who helped me out! I am now running a Voinian Cruiser with an Azdara bay, 4 phase turrets and 2 neutron. I laid off the extra armor however, i agree with whomever said that the cruiser has enough armor.

    • Good job! That sounds like a nasty ship, however, armor is key with the Voinian Cruiser. Since it doesn't have barely any shields, its main and only line of defense is armor. And though it may have a lot of armor, a bit of extra armor never hurts. My suggestion is that if your in the crescent, there is no such thing as too little armor.
