    • Jack needs help with Frozen Heart


      I have a couple of questions:

      1. Is it possible to get a Degree in Archaelogy, and if so, how?
      2. I failed the mission where I was supposed to free the prisoners on Rigel...what do I do now?
      3. The pilot trainee missions are annoying. What good are they?
      4. Same about the Delegate Needed missions.
      5. How come missions don't go away when you fail them?
      6. Lastly, I was invited to go to a chess tournament, and then the loser told me all about some specs for a fighter. So what?

      Yes, you have to do enough of the archaeology missions (and it's linked to your legal status)

      Carry on, sadder but wiser.

      You can't finish the game until you've completed this string, although you could delay it as it doesn't tie in directly until after you've completed the other strings.

      You'll want to do these.

      You have to abort if you have actually failed. Don't abort unless you have failed, though - some of the missions will only complete after you have completed others.

      Och, you know how people talk at Chess matches. You never know though, maybe the guy actually can build a better starship.

      Watch him to see if he turns up again.

    • And perhaps a bit of chess might make missions easier, especially if you get a new ship out of it...........

      A lot easier than the two best alternatives for missions - the Buckaneer and that "Icak" (spelling?).

      Of course, Frozen Heart is most fun in the Icak.

      Really? I think I did one, but nothing seemed to come of it, so I didn't do any of the others when I saw them offered. Did I miss a mission thread by ignoring them? Or was the one sufficient to get me other missions that depended on it? I did get to the point of getting rid of the black hole...

      If you are interested (and not to put you down or anything) the correct spelling is "Icax". It is pronounced "Ice-Ax".
