EV/EVO Newswire: EMPIRE OF CRIME, A New Plug-in For Escape Velocity

(First, my apologies for cross-posting - this item was just put on the general EV discussion board, though this may be a more appropriate forum)

I am pleased to anounce that my latest EV plug-in, EMPIRE OF CRIME, is now up and available from the add-ons section for your enjoyment. Those who have played my "Empire Trilogy" plugs in the past will recognize the universe, but the story this time is from an "all-pirate" perspective. Here is the description of the final product:

EMPIRE OF CRIME (version 1.0) The war between the rebellious Weave Alliance and the hegemony of the Terran Star Empire has reached a critical point, with either side poised for victory. However, as resources are increasingly seconded to the front lines, the only true victor has been intergalactic organised crime, which has profited and risen to infamy in the absence of any real law enforcement. Tiring of the increasingly dangerous life of a merchant trader, you decide to abandon the world of legitimate business and forge your own path to glory. The game can be played from the viewpoint of three very different perspectives: an association with the upstart Serpens Triumvirate the thankless task of an intergalactic bounty hunter, or an allegiance with the mysterious Mafia. This will be a galaxy in which you will have a multitude of enemies and precious few friends... though who can you really trust, for in a time of near anarchy and golden opportunity, friendship and comradery are the rarest of all commodities. This plug offers more than 200 original missions, a multitude of new weapons and outfits, over 100 new worlds and systems and more than 40 new and altered ships, including seven formidable "bosses". Indeed, this plug-in should prove to be an absolute must-have for the 'hardcore' EV player.

I should warn that as this is an all-pirate scenario, it does contain some descriptive violence and mild profanity some may find offensive.

It's been available for only a couple of days and I see it is ranked number two on the "highest ranked" plugs list. My thanks to all who voted!

Kindest Regards,

Tim
