I decided to use ECM at 2APs. The first time failed, so I used it a second time and the missile has disengaged. With my 1 remaining AP, I activate my Discipline ready for the next round

The enemy fired a salvo at me and hit. I haven’t heard a peep from the cavalry yet!

I fired a salvo and scored a hit (2APs). I then activated my Discipline (1AP) and fired again (2APs) and missed.
The enemy ship fired another focussed salvo and hit me…again nothing from the cavalry!

Next turn should do it!

The next turn didn’t do it – I missed with both salvos! However, he missed me again and I got him the next turn.

That wasn’t very close run, but I have had much closer run ins with the enemy. They aren’t all quite as easy as that.

I looted 8E (I don’t know) of cargo and gained 704 credits.

I made it to Gameris after that and continued my mission to buy Jewellery. 20 pieces this time. I am now heading off to Petersburg to deliver and continue on my mission to deliver 200 pieces of Jewellery. I expect I will run into more ships in the future

At any time, I can use my Ship Sensor to locate ships and intercept them to gain loot and experience.

The Red dot is an enemy vessel. The blue dots are friendly. If I attack those, I will be in trouble with the galactic police. The yellow dot is the currently selected ship on the sensor.

Using the Communicate button, I had a dialog appear…nothing else though. I’m not sure of the usefulness of this yet (if any).

I decided not to attack the red dot – it’s a Federation Paladin (Corvette) which I think is quite a bit stronger than my ship! When I clicked attack, a dialog appeared telling me it was a bigger ship and asking me if I was sure I wanted to attack. I chose no.

When you succeed in attacks or missions, you get experience points. When you get a certain amount, you are promoted

Trade
Mercenary
Criminal

Regardless of your character choice, you can choose any one of these. This time, I’m going for Disguise under Mercenary. This gives me a 50% chance to avoid being flagged a criminal after committing a crime.

Status: offline 		Thx Yoshino.

I've kept quiet tonight as I've showed all the main stuff regarding fighters and the "initial" game.

When other significant things occur, like getting my corvette, hiring crew, taking ships then I'll post more. Right now, I'm busy chasing money to get these things so I can explore the universe...I can't leave the sarting system without a corvette or bigger...something that can have jump engines.

At the minute I have about 130,000+ credits so it won't be too long

Status: offline 		mmm...apologies, but it seems Smugglers IV does not want to work anymore for me.

I've had an issue with my computer soon after rebuilding it. Initially, games seemed to run fine...now I have come across several games that were working and now aren't...Smugglers IV, Combat Mission Shock Force, HoI3 and Gary Grigsby Egale Day to Bombing the Reich...

I've had support from the various companies, but it seems this isn't Windows 7 specific and not the games fault (although HoI3 is debateable!). It seems to be machine specific...something I've installed which has affected the others.

I probably won't spend much more time trying to get this to run...tried so many times recently with the other 3 I've mentioned, I'm bored of trying. I'll probably try and re-install all these in the future...maybe the system will have somehow sorted itself out by then.

I'd like to stress that this is not a "games and Windows 7" issue...they were working fine...something, somewhere later has affected how these games run and they don't want to play anymore...but they ran fine under Windows 7.

check out the prevx.com site - there is a malware around they thought it was the latest set of windows updates but something is going around that is rewritting the registry settings to the local user from administrator. I read some of your other posts and then say this online from various pc sources at
work. Of course Microsoft after 3 days came out and said it wasn't them. The fix at prevx will fix machines going into black screens of death issues.
