I'm stuck! They're not offering me missions anymore

Hi.

I'm playing EVO through a plugin on ev-nova, and so far I'm enjoying it.

I understand that this is an old game, and that not that many people play it anymore, but will take my chances.

I'm currently playing the Zidagar storyline. The one commander who's been giving all the missions so far has just got promoted (think he said he would be closer to the crescent), but I can't seem to find him anymore.

I've been landing on all the Zidagar worlds, but the only missions that come up are to defend against attacks, or escorting convoys.

What planet should I try to land on?

And one more thing. Where are all the posts in this forum?, on the forum main page, I can only see three threads!
(1)Announcement Password Problems/Can't Log-in
(2)Pinned EVO Questions
(3)Play EV: Override on modern Windows machines!

Surely there must be more?

Welcome to the forums! I'm sorry to say they're pretty slow moving as of late, and it's just a coincidence that I saw your post so soon after you sent it.

See where it says "Click here to show filter options"? Hit that, then set "Time Frame" to "The beginning"

As for your plot question, I can hardly remember the Zidagar string, but I'll try to replay it and should have an answer for you by next week if nobody else manages it.

If you are where I think you are, the next mission should be from planet Zidagar itself. Head into the bar there and you have a 50% chance of getting it, provided you have the required combat rating. In this case, it has to be Dangerous or higher, higher being Deadly and then Ultimate. Without a pilotlog I can't say for sure, but I'm reasonably certain this is where you're stuck.

Thanks for the replies!

It's the combat rating that's preventing me from getting the mission :duh: , Don't know why I didn't think of that. Need around 1600 more kills to get to Dangerous

Over to another question

On my previous pilot, I did the UE missions. Is killing the Voinian Dreadnought the last mission? I can't seem to get any other missions after that, and the mission texts didn't give the feeling of closure (when I completed the Igadzra missions, they said something like "you have now helped destabilize the Strand conflict or something)

Contact the Emalgha, to the North of Voinian space and the West of Miranu space. Once you've completed the diplomatic relations mission, head to their little moon's bar and get ready to collapse most of the Voinian empire while fighting a truly horrifying number of frigates and cruisers.

I've now completed both the Zidagar and the UE missions :laugh:

Thanks for all the help!

btw, just out of curiosity. Are there any other fun missions available to my pilot now that I haven't completed?

For those who don't want to read the pilot log:
I've completed three mission goals. Destabilized the Strand confict, Kicked Voinian butt and explored the Nebulas.

I know that there's still the Huron missions left, but any other?

Well, there's some stuff with the Zachit. Oh, and the curing of New Calcutta.

Then start over, play the Voinian missions and a different strand.

Oh, and poke around Iothe Prime to help the Captains of Freeport or Knox to help the UE hunt renegades, and make sure you check out New Taranto for the shipbuilding crisis.

Will do :laugh:

Then play for multiple sides simultaneously and end up in an Enhanced Arada with Plasma Siphon, Cloak, Bronev Plating, and half a dozen Dreadnought escorts.
