I would like to know what you think is the best strand and why.

Ah one of these thingies again. It depends:I'll either go for the Igazdra or Zidagar. The Igazdra because of the Igazra,and the Zidagar when I'm using Advance and want the Zidagar fighter bay for my Cresent Warship.
Or the Azdgari! Go with them, capture one of their warships, pick up the experimental shield generator, add a normal one and have fun watching six Azdaras doing their work

The real reason to go for the Igazdra is the Plasma Siphon... You can always capture a Igazra with the other strands. In fact, working for the Zigadar has got me two Igazras as escorts!

The above post can be concidered "Parlez vous sans mon derreire" As the french probably wouldn't say.
Strandless is my favorite strand. Or Igadzra.

Hmmm another of these annoying topics. Look this topic is as pointless and stupid as the Confed/Rebel one on the EV board. These topics are always started and never usually stop untill they have had over a hundred posts always saying the same thing as the last version of this topic about a month before. No offence but thse topics really do suck.

I posted this as i don't know what strand to choose.
What I'd like to know is, which strand holds the moral high groung?
It sounds like an odd question, but I'm one of those "I don't CARE if it's only a game, there's no WAY I'm going to attack an unarmed freighter/sell out Earth/work for somebody unethical" players. I fell in with the Igadzra by accident, but so far they seem like a reasonably friendly race...

Well, I'm not sure any of the Strands really occupy the moral high ground, but the Zidagar definitely occupy the moral low ground. In their mission string, they commit genocide by eradicating the populations of entire planets using chemical weapons. The Igadzra are rather isolationist and paranoid, but they are also the most intelligent of the Strands and advance their military position through subtle trickey rather than brute force. The Azdgari are rather impulsive, and advance their position through high technology.

If you want ethics,do not sign up with the Igazdra! At one point they have you destroy every merchant ship in a system,then blow up that system's planet to frighten their enemies. Then they make you do the same thing to Tolb,near Azdgari,and make the Azzies think that your ship has some sort of planet buster aboard! So of course the Azzies attack....
Speed....Need i say more?

The Strandless - they've opted out of the whole Strand War and no longer allow themselves to be ruled by the corrupt Council.

Yeah...Strandless rock. Unfortunately,there isn't a mission string for them,except Secession(Sp?) And their only real ship is the Cresent Fighter-they need WARSHIPS! Mmmmm....Kayian Battlecruiser....dreams....

The Igadzra. They give you awesome technology, and are the most intelligent strand. But for ships, Azdgari 0wn.
