Is it possible to join other strands?

I have tried before,but maybe I'm doing something wrong.I have already completed the Zidagar but I have also gained a rating in every strand system above "decent individual",hence I am friendly to all.Is it possible to join another strand.

No, unless you download the Triple Agent plugin from (url="http://"http://www.AmbrosiaSW.com/cgi-bin/vftp/show.pl?product=evo&category;=plugins&display;=name&page;=6")here.(/url)

Normally, once you fight with one strand, you'll have to root with the rest using another pilot file...

You can be with more than one strands without any plugin. Igazra and Zidara, or Igazra and the Azdgari. Just pick up the Igazra starting mission and then on the way down to complete it, take either zidara or the azdgari....

------------------

Or take the really challenging road and go pick up the Voinian string, but ignore it for a short while, then pick up Renegade strings but hold those for a short while too, then pick up the UE missions and juggle those with one mission of one side followed by another mission but on the other side then another mission of the third string. Stick to that order and you should be able to end up with a Voinian Cruiser outfitted with Bronev plating, mine layers, and a cloaking device. Then go to strand space and follow the same plan, giving you a Voinian Cruiser with the Exp. Shield generator, plasma siphon, phased beamer, Zidagar ECM, Bronev plating, mine layers, a cloaking device, and everybody liking you. 🙂

Warbeast are you saying that you worked for all three strands. If so is this with or without the Trip Agen plug?

I believe that the readme which comes with Triple Agent suggests that you should start by working for the Igadzra. Not sure how far you'd get with a pilot file which had already completed the Ziddy missions.

If you want to stick with the pilot you have created, and are not prepared to cheat, the only remaining options might be:

  • Complete the other two central objectives

  • Add a plugin such as Beyond the Crescent

  • Try to conquer your enemies' empire - I have a pilot who has dominated all of Azdgari space. (Once you've got the Igazra, you might as well have some fun with it, I reckon.)

That's easy for you to say.

Without, he means. The thing is, once you've done Zidagar Mission #1, or any Strand
Mission #1, all the other Strand missions are unavailable.

So pick up the Igadzra starting mission in central Miranu space, which I think has
no time limit, and then don't finish it and pick up the Zidagar AND Azdgari ones.
You can just about do it in a ship with a 1 day jump time if you pick the routes
correctly.

Now continue like this. End the Azdgari mission, then the Zidagar one, then the
Igadzra one. Now pick up the next Azdgari mission and don't complete, instead go
pick up the Zidagar Mission #2 and Igadzra Mission #2 also.

I am using EVO 1.0.1. In this version all the recruitment missions have time limits. The zidagar does not show one but you can still run out of time.

It's just possible, but you'll be down to your last day when you do it. The Arada is the best ship for those missions, when properly upgraded. The trick is never stop to refuel.

Still trying, eh? 😄

Well what else am I going to do.

Thought we figured out it was pretty impossible?
