I know that in order to do Reign of the Voinians, you can't do any UE/Emalgha missions or Miranu missions (and I'm assuming that "Miranu" includes "Zachit"), but what about the Strand strings, and the two renegade mission strings? Can I do all of those and still have RotV work? And are there any other strings I'm forgetting?
Thanks.

Thanks. Though I was planning on doing the Azdgari storyline for the Shield regenerators plus the turn upgrade...all the Igadzra have are the SAE Modules (which I never use) and the Plasma Siphon (which I never found much use for, though I've never tried it against UE Fighters...).

I can do the Captains of Freeport string, but not the North Tip Renegade string without doing the first Miranu mission. And the same applies to the Azdgari string apparently. I'll check the Igadzra string.
Were you using a special plug to do these missions without the Miranu mission, kauthor?

**I believe you're right. I'm assuming what I did was only restrict the Miranu and Zachit missions because they either A. Disrupted the storyline or more likely, B. They affected bits (specifically, changing systems) that I didn't want affected. This was in planning (thank God for some foresight on my part, for once) for RotV II in which the Miranu play a fairly heavy role... in getting their arses kicked, anyway.
By having the player not affiliate with them in the slightest, it made compatability across pilots much simpler, and hence less player-specific bugs. The strands should be free and clear to play though.

**I would have liked to have coded it that way... but EVO's bit system is much more restricting (as in more simple) than EVN's, so the only requirement I could make was the most logical one: for the first mission of RotV I you had to complete the last Voinian mission from the stock scenario.
