I have a question. How do you get a bounty hunter off your back? I have killed it a few times but it keeps on showing up.

Actually, I'm pretty sure that once you've killed enough of them, the bounty hunters don't come back - I'm currently plagued by a load after taking over three planets (but let's face it, the planets in Fevrivy and Sumer are sittin ducks ;)) but when I did this in EVO 1.0.1, eventually, after countless explosions, hey presto, no more bounty hunters, and I was still raking in the cash Hopefully this is the same in 1.0.2...

A bit of advice: Don't release the planets to get rid of the bounty hunters. Get a really nice ship, then you can board the bounty hunters for money and escorts, and you still have the income from the planets! I never release planets. In the ship I have after I've dominated a planet, I can easily deal with them, and then they just help me once I've captured 'em.

All the bounty hunters I've come across are Crescent Warships, like my own ship, but my chances of capturing them are always somethin pitiful like 8%...any tips on improving this (besides buying a different ship - I love my CW)? One fact though is that the bounty hunters never have much cash on them, but hey, beggars can't be choosers. By the way, Lord Gwydion, I like the Calvin & Hobbes quote

Or you can buy a UE Cruiser... Ok, so it's slow and unmanouvarable, but with all the money you're getting from the planets you should be able to afford it...
Anyway, my escourte is currently 2 Zidaras, 2 Igadzras and 2 Cresent warships. They pretty much take care of anything you should come across...
Or even better, release one of the warships and take over a bountyhunter and keep its ship as your own, and then you'll have the UE cruiser as an escourt (those 5 UE fighters can be really helpful with their heavy rockets...)

Bounty hunters are also good for use as fuel dumps. Board 'em and gas up.

Originally I posted a message about how I couldn't find the Anna Bolishova missions. Then I played EVO and found them straight away -anyhow, I've got the Cruiser now and everythin's amazin apart from the slight lack of speed, even after an upgrade. But gettin escorts is dead easy now - cheers guys! Plus, I've discovered the Henwar missions but I'm kinda left hanging, as I've been asked to look for support or somethin and I've tried all the usual places...hmm
