I think so. Miranu missions start on the Miranu homeworld, I believe. You can play the missions for the Strands, but watch out -- once you start working for one Strand, you can't play the missions for the other Strands with the same pilot (unless you use a plugin like Triple Agent, that is).

Sure you can, but only if your combat rating is excellent or better, which it should be after beating the "Naught"
Anyways, the azdgari missions start at Southtip Station, the igazdra's at Kitrak, and the zidagar missions begins at Pozdag 3

Never did finish that Igadzra string. I always wanted a space bannana.

The UE and Voinian strings are conflicting (you can only play one).

The Azdgari, Igadzra and Zidagar strings are conflicting.

The Zachit and Renegade strings are conflicting, I believe (at least some of them).

The Miranu string is seperate.

Any combination of those four lines is possible, e.g. UE, Azdgari, Renegade and Miranu is possible.

There are ways around it, yes, but those are down to the engine, and not really "allowed". Or would you like to now state that the Monty Python and Ghosting both aren't cheating, because they're possible?

Well, you can't say they're cheating, in the same way as the forklift, or altering stuff in res-edit. Anyways, what's ghosting?

You don't know what Ghosting is? Well, since I just made it up, that probably makes sense. It's when you start hitting a ship that is running after another ship, without targetting it. It means you can take out Igazras without them hitting you.

Is it really possible to do that with Igazras?
I think I've tried that a couple of times, the only ones I remember it worked with, was the Zidagars

Igazra was chasing Zidagar fighter. I was in Crescent fighter. I fired at it. It didn't see me.

Use your common sense, Opalius. It wouldn't work against the Zidagar and not anyone else.

Bah, it does. The Zidagars is the only strand that doesn't react if you accidentally hit them during a fight. I just tried it

My favorte tactic (behind pythoning) is to target something that is far away, or is your escort. You then use your turreted weapons to shoot at it, and bring the line of fire across another ship. I.E. Escort: 0 degrees. You:180 Degrees, a few clicks away - Igadzra in the middle. It shouldn't notice a thing and you'll have it disabled.

We can call it ghosting, that's ok with me.
