Are "named captains" in ST similar to named captains in Pirates? So far, I don't think I've met any and I'm playing Impossible. Every now and then, I'll encounter a ship that is a little harder to hit than normal, but everything's been pretty easy. Where does the enemy captain's name show up?

Hey AA, named captains haven't been added to the game ... yet. It's been on Cory's list of enhancements since June of 2011 startradersrpg.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=wish&action=display&thread=768 I think it might have been bought up here and there since then. If it doesn't make it into ST (and I'm guessing, 20 months or so means it's either at the top of the to-do list, or ended up in the "non-starter" category), then it'll certainly be in ST2 |

No, it's really cool that you felt the game could be improved by that - there have been so many wild ideas thrown about since the game was created, and while a good chunk of them find their way into the game (in some form or other), things do slip through the cracks. Also, it's invaluable getting fresh perspectives on things as new players join the fray.
Also, I only knew about the named captains thing because I've been here too blimmin long - 98% of the regulars here wouldn't have seen that other thread.

Yeah I can vouch for the fact that playing the game a long time doesn't actually equate to a deep understanding of the game. I bought the brothers' games over a year ago and didn't really get a deep understanding of them until I joined up on the forums and started poking around in the discussion threads. Don't feel bad about asking questions at all, people here tend to be very nice and understanding and the devs will listen to everything you say!
