I was one of those that suggested you review this game, and I'm glad you did. It's been a long, long time since I approached it "fresh", so it's fun seeing a lot of things that I take for granted approached with a new light.<BR/><BR/>Some tips:<BR/><BR/>1. Defeating the Ilwrath vessel with only your Earthling Cruiser is possible. Earthling Cruisers have homing missiles that are semi-accurate, so if you point your Cruiser in the direction of the Ilwrath, you should be able to get two clean hits, which will kill him.<BR/>2. Moving in the star systems burns no fuel. Moving between star systems does burn fuel, as does landing on planets.<BR/>3. Make sure you always have a spare lander.<BR/>4. There's a Melee Mode in UQM that is great for practicing ship-to-ship combat. I highly recommend it, and it's a fun way to kill some time.<BR/>5. There's an entire site dedicated to Star Control 2 strategy (the game that UQM changed the title on). You can find it <A HREF="http://starcontrol.classicgaming.gamespy.com/sc2/" REL="nofollow">here</A>.<BR/><BR/>Good luck!David Colbornehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00559189787607852538noreply@blogger.com
