dont forget to strap on some dospect armor (maybe even bronev if u did the voinian string) and shield boosters if u have leftover space... every little bit helps.

Xach, thanks for the suggestion of Dospect. I forgot about that :eek:

Heh, armor is extrememly important in Strand space. I've tacked on some Dospect Armor to my Azdara, and phase weapons seem nearly harmless against my ship...

Congratulations on using such a beautiful piece of flying material(Azdara, as if I could be talking about anything else) to deadly affect!

Hey guys...
Just one question.... where do you find dospect armour... can't find it for the life of me... But then again I am just a blind man led by a deaf dog...
TK... Lord of well... whatever...
Complete the Paaren Station thread. I think you get it from Earth, but I could be wrong. General Rak, what good is an ECM system against Zidagar? They don't fire any homing missiles... What you have also missed out is the possibility of fitting an RCS upgrade and swivel-phase turrets. The extra firepower is pretty useful, especially against Azdaras.
The above post can be concidered "Parlez vous sans mon derreire" As the french probably wouldn't say.

You get it from completing the Voinian Defector mission and shipping 3 shipments of supplies to Paaren Station. They are availible anywhere in UE space; you can also get Dospect from freeing the Hinwar; access the armour on Liadon.

There is no good. My error. :frown: Thank you for correcting me.

1- RCS is of no use against the Zidagar, they will have very little edge in manueverability; plus, the SADs will really pound them.
2- The CW has 4 gun and 4 turret slots. Each turret takes up a gun slot; therefore, it is impossible to load four turrets and swivel phase cannons. Turrets are much superior to swivel cannons.
First of all, dump the fighter bay. It frees up a lot of space, and fighters are too expensive to replace to be cost-effective. Take out the SAD launcher too. SAD's are ineffective and, again, free up plenty of space.
Then give the ship as many turrets as you can - Phase in the Crescent, Blaze and Neutron in UE-Voinian space. Against the Voinians, Emalgha turrets are great too. In addition, give the ship all the speed and manueverability upgrades, and pump up the armor and shields. Don't forget the Afterburner, fuel scoops, and fuel tanks: those things can save your life in a pinch, especially when used together.
There'll be plenty of space left over. Depending on who you work for, you can get shield generators, the Plasma Siphon, the Phased Beam, Bronev Plating, and so on. Finally, fit the ship with all the no-space upgrades (IFF, Density Scanner, ECM System, etc.) that you can afford.
What you end up with is a ship that can beat anything smaller than a CW in close and outmaneuver the biggest warships.

Don't worry, I call the Azdara my favorite vessel far and wide. I easilly completed all the Voinian missions with it...

Then why does my newly captured Cresent Warship have 4 turrets and 3 guns? (And it is 4 and 3 BTW). I meant this tip as a general strand tip, not just Zidagar. Just for reference, my new CW is fitted thusly:
4 phase turrets 3 phase swivel cannons RCS upgrade Thrust upgrade Engine upgrade 3 needle missile launchers (with 250+ Missiles) 4 shield upgrades Dospect armour Sensor upgrade IFF decoder Dencity Scanner Afterburner 2 Fuel scoops 2 Fuel tanks ECM system Needle jammer
It's a bit of a jack-of-all-trades, and so far I've taken on several CWs (including one with only armour remaining...) and also dominated Gorky. Now, if you'll excuse me I'm off to join the Azdagari. Can you guess why?

You must have an old version of EVO. The older versions let you have 4 tur. and 4 guns. That "feature" was edite dout in the later versions.
A Spisak
------------------ Why have one when you can have two for twice the price.

Either you are using an older version of EVO, or you captured some type of Përs ship and the game gave you its weapons. Either way, it shouldn't have happened in EVO 1.02 (the benchmark)

1- ...but master of none (except primaries) 2- So? I can destroy a fleet of CWs in an Azdara or Arada 3- Gorky has a pathetic defense fleet... try Council Station 4- Because you prefer manueverability... or so you can have your own AW.
Yeah, I'm on 1.00. Why did they change that anyway?

Ah! You should download 1.02 - many bug fixes.
I believe they changed it to make montying harder; less guns means it take longer.

What bugs does it fix? My EVO occasionally crashes when it quits, but that's about it...
Originally posted by Aben Zin: **What bugs does it fix? My EVO occasionally crashes when it quits, but that's about it...
Sounds like more of a system problem than Override problem. But downloading version 1.02 should fix some of those annoying bugs you can't remember at the moment...
What annoying bugs? I can think of none... Except for the one which you can use to get more weapon space with mass and cargo expansions. But that's just useful...

I call that a cheat, plain and simple
Don't tell me you used that on your Crescent Warship?
