This is interesting. I suppose I will do my part and die mercilessly. Being out of practice does that.
Cpt. Raptus of the Cadari Naval Forces, Titan class because everyone else is doing it so why not. Oh, and on Crazy because, well, because.
I might go insane though. Always like dying before the game starts. It builds character. But a fair warning: this iss essentially a fresh install of the game, so I have very few upgrades/unlocks available.

@hatesolice - definitely worth retraining yourself on some levels where you can snag unlocks! You'll have more fun that trying to jump into the deep end with cement blocks tied on. Get your feet wet in Challenging and Demanding an open up a couple unlocks. Life will get easier!

Well, I do have some unlocked. Not a ton, but one of the most important ones(in my opinion at least) is the water-fuel tank upgrade. I can't imagine running any ship without it. I would double-check the others I have, except currently my daughter is with her mother doing some running around and has the phone to play on. It's a crappy phone anyway, as my good one kicked the bucket(sort of), but ST runs on it so I'm happy.
Off-topic, does anyone know how to repair the plug-in slots on Android phones? You know, where you plug it in to charge the phone or transfer data? The one on my HTC Inspire is extremely loose, and almost never makes contact anymore. I don't want to toss the phone away, since it works for what I want it for, but it's hard to charge it up as it currently is.

Fenikso what! I didn't play for Rychart, because I figured you were going to come in big time for them! It would be a shame if nobody is flying for them. Man, I would love to. But RL is hitting me real hard these days and upcoming week is going to demand me being Zealot for my family and work, probably on Crazy or Insane level .

Hmmm. I have looked and, ooops, it seems I have 0 ST upgrades on this tablet. Sigh. Whether I join or not depends on how soon I can get some things unlocked ... How do you get the Smuggler's Hold again? Hmmm and goodness, I would have to unlock Zealot .... I think I have been playing too much CK recently ...

The housing for the charge port is physically loose, and slides around when touched. It should be completely stationary. I'm pretty sure i'm gonna have to open the phone up and do some soldering.

grävling and HateSolstice sorry to be annoying, but could you guys take this somewhere else. Also sorry about your phone problems, what a hassle. Oh and for everybody else, The Challenge Starts this Monday, which means those in Asia, Australia are already getting going.

Oh and for everybody else, The Challenge Starts this Monday, which means those in Asia, Australia are already getting going. It was just an aside, no need to get annoyed. There wasn't much else to say on the subject anyway. I'll attempt to participate, but this phone feels heavily gimped compared to my precious HTC(may he rest in peace). At least the game runs on it. I don't suppose you guys have any qualms with emulators like Bluestacks, do you? I might just do that instead. No need to worry about hacks/cheats; I think it's lame, and wouldn't know how anyway.

Flying a Zealot in bluestacks is perfectly legit. You still kill in the name of your faction - just with a bigger screen

Anton Dukram von Thulun is the third son of a noble family who are a minor member and distant (very distant, but one will never hear anyone in the family say so) relative of the ruling House Thulun. His apptitude at piloting and combat, and his devotion to the House (with a little help from his last name) saw him given a starship and a commission. Anton will be competing in the Titan class.

Ok, so I'm late to the party, as usual.
Raptus the Insane, so called because he once played a game of Go Fish and claimed an entire planet as his ante.
The insane part? The others were playing poker.
He shall be flying the Picky Beggar for Cadar, on Crazy mode. Methinks he will stick to the Beggar, just because he really is insane.
