If you want, retitle it ... whatever. Lot of it is just chatter, but this thread has me starring with a gun bunny to a bloody boot, and right now I have a smuggler about to turn the corner even with the fact I can't trade outside out Rychart and Indy world's right now. Damn politics have tried to bury me this game. I have learned a lot from this thread in a short time. I love this game. I will move to insane after in see how long my pirate can live and see my smuggler through as well.

My smuggler turned the corner. I'm mostly trading W/A/E. Have about 600 amassed friends with all factions and can run away from indy or even fight them if I'm careful.

Military rank 18 protects from trade embargo reputation losses. Also don't forget to surrender when things get bad against Indy pirates, you will be looted, but you will survive. Another piece of advice... Never surrender to aliens once it made me really mad. You can surrender to space hives, but you will have to restart the game, since surrendering to space hives us a little glitchy.

Graduated to insane. Need advice on not running out of money. I am playing as a pirate (of course) and I immediately drop points into pilot to try and start getting my fuel consumption down. Any more advice?

Any more advice? I'd focus on taking passenger, delivery, and datapad contracts, while trading normal goods with the planets near the delivery locations. Avoid battle whenever you can, as repairs are expensive. Also, exploit shortage/surplus rumours whenever convenient and get trade permits with your favoured factions as soon as it's practical.

That's what I have done, damn work and this whole being a productive member of society got in the way today lol. I have permits with Cadar and DV. I want Rychart, but that will have to wait as they are embargoed by Javat. I made Javat a bit mad because I forgot to check; repairable situation though.

I simply got trade permits and death warrants with everybody, got tactics to 15 and just parasited on spy and solar wars to gain rep and exp. With a too low intimidate skill I would favour the spy wars and selling records, but with intimidate blockades become way more profitable.
