It doesn't change the role of the privateer, just changes where it came from. Why? Because Letters of Marque send shivers down the spine of anybody with knowledge of International Relations and International Law. They basically would say 'Hi, we can't control our turf, or our lines of...

Point. Thought: Privateer evolved as a slang term for the various independent types that didn't fit anywhere else, who were often contracted by Confed to run patrols along the border. Some geek on Oxford put it in an editorial, and the term stuck. Re the Yellow Systems: We've no way of...

OK, after reading it: Looks good, LOAF. Very good. However, I would dispute Gemini being 'quiet'. Sol Sector is quiet. Gemini is the Wild West. Enigma and Vega are like the trenches of WWI. That's one thing that stood out for me, reading the Privateer manual again. Gemini is not a...

<reads> Hmm. Yeah, put it up on the wiki...Actually, anybody able to give us our own Wiki? :)

At the moment, we're stuck with a conundrum. Spiritplumber seems, frankly, tired. Very, very tired. LOAF, on the other hand, is fired up to go...But seems to have conflicts break out wherever he goes. Meanwhile, everybody else is tired of the fighting. So, I'm going to do something...

Could do without the roids, though.

Thanks, but... <howl> Does it matter if I fail this one (IE, does it affect the game any?) I'm pondering letting the Ralari die and just finishing the Gratha.

Confed: Trying that...<scream> I'm coming to the conclusion that this mission is unbeatable.

Lots of reasons. In the US, at least (and this will surprise people, but seems to be the case in Northeast PA), hunters are some of the biggest environmentalists I know - and I don't hunt. As far as what gets picked to hunt - It varies by country and region. In the US at least, hunting is...

<scream> Now if only I could *connect* to IRC. Even through Java.

OK. This is severely pissing me off. I cannot beat this mission. As soon as I arrive, the Ralari goes kaboom. Is it *possible* to save the Ralari? At all?

Um, hm. I was trying to connect to 6667... Lemme try again... <sob> DAMN SCHOOL NET!

Trying to log on to irc.wcnews.com to get to #WingNut. Connection is always refused. Similarly, nogo with trying to go in through Java.

Question: If the militia have a SAR craft, wouldn't they also need someplace for it to go? For example, a hospital ship or something?

It looks good, Brad...Though I would argue that the human could use an, er...face...

What are we with Daylight Savings? -4? Orrr...?

I'm on the US East Coast, at...Er, I forget what New York's offset from UTC is. Anyhow, yeah. I've class most days of the week taking up my time, and classes in evening from Mon-Wed, but...Er...I dunno. Edit: Pardon me while I wipe the drool from the board...Can ya tell I've been awake for...

Guys, fixing that error in the next version would be great.:-)

Agreed, but...<shudder> I hate you, Paddyboy. I didn't want that in my head.

Yeah, but I noticed it in the FAQ. Everything flows together, quite nicely, la dee da dee da...I could actually believe it, sort of. Then comes the Pilgrims. Sticks out like a sore thumb, and generally just feels...off. Nothing there connects to anything else. Like trying to put the Force...
