If you want to milk the most out of EVO without a plug, get a great Igadzra warship, here's what you do. In the end, (a long time after all of this is done) you'll have this. An Igadzra with both (dospect and boron amour(Voinian)) sensor/ECM and Zidara defense upgrades, enhancement upgrades, UE cloak, Phase beams, sheild enhancers,an exotic Voinian Dreadnought escort and Igadzra beam escorts, 20 tons of extra space for missles or whatever you pleasure, plasma siphon, and all that stuff you have to get from four government mission strings making you a double agent in the Cresent and for the Voinian and UE governments.

BE PREPARED FOR A LOT OF READING!!!

First, you want to get a good reputation in Voinian space, buy whatever ship you can destroy things with and don't do ANY missions that are from the UE String or the Strands or the Miranu. Do all of the Voinian missions that become available at the station in between the Voinians and the UE, except the last mission. After you have completed these, go get a nice Fake ID, go destroy some Voinian ships but be careful not to destroy to many for they will hate you and you will not be able to bribe your way into there space to pick up their prized armour. OK, your done with the Voinians for now; work on your relations w/the Miranu and the UE(DO NOT DO THEIR MISSIONS YET). Do the contact w/the Miranu, then go help the Zachit(do their missions until the final one, which BTW you can do it but I don't think you'll be able to.), they are a friendly but rough crowd, by now you should be cruisen in something nice, srry, your going to have to lose that juicy ship for if it's huge and it's mass is more than 99 tons you can't do two of the Strand missions and get double the credit's and good stuff. NOW, be very very very careful, go and get the Igadzra missions on the system three hyperspaces west from the Miranu and one hyperspace North, you should be in the K-something system, if not you are in the system right below it and you have to hyper space one more system north. When you get the Igadzara missions, go on the most direct route to the Zidara system three hyperspaces North-West of Zidara. NEXT, go deliver the cargo proptly after you have gotten the Zidagar missions. THEN, go do the Zidagar mission of destroying the Renegade fleet. Do the missions in what ever order you want IT DOES NOT MATTER. However If you want that Igadzara Warship to have 20 extra tons get it before you do the Zidara Missions. Finally do the UE Missions, get the cloak and stuff and you are good to go. During the Zidara Missions you might want to check about getting some of the Igadzara beam Warships as ESCORTS not as your own ship becuase as soon as you take it to the outfitters you'll lose the beam that they have. Upgrade the Igadzara incorporating everything that the governments give you and Phase beams and the two types of armour and cloak. Finish up all the missions in whatever order and capture the Dreadnought. THERE, enjoy this beautifully upgraded ship and take over many planets.

In my opinion, an afterburner is essential to every ship regardless.

Nice going! Think about sending that fancy pilot file to the PFTN.

I'm thinking this is with the EVN port, not the old original mac EVN game, right? I'm guessing this based on the disappearance of the Igazra beams.

You don't mention whether you have to abort missions to capture the Dreadnaught and/or beam-toting Igazras.

Decreped Crow

Nono, this was with the original game 1.0.0. I forgot to put that you must abort the missions to destroy the Dreadnought and the missions to destroy the prototype Igadzara, BTW you can either try to capture the Prototype ships that you have to observe (disable them w/out help) and capture them but there is no difference.

You can't have azdgari stuff with that plan, and I prefer the azdgari over everything. Sorry, but I therefore won't apply it. Oh, and you'd better play the 1.0.2 if you want good Zidagar beams.

Heh, i just altered the data files so the beams would work right (I still run 1.0.1).

What's the problem w/the beams; I never found any problem with them, and no I think it does menchin doing two of the three Cresent strings.
