Title: Starship Selling? Post by: Arashi on December 02, 2002, 08:24:21 am Back in the day I played the original PC version of Star Con 2... I don't know if it wasn't incorporated with the 3DO version of the game or what, but has the ability to sell ships been removed? Or was it simply not there to begin with, in the 3DO version?
It seems kinda cheap, but my favorite tactic of gaining RUs was to sit there and "borrow" those much needed ships from the various races (particularly the Umgah... waste of fleet space) and pawn them at the starbase. ;D Title: Re: Starship Selling?

Repeat until filthy rich Strange, I never managed to get them to offer any additional ships beyond the first 4, even if I visited them over a year later as I've been told you can do. But you can also do that trick with Yehat rebels I believe. Though by that point in the game I doubt you'd need RU that badly. Title: Re: Starship Selling?

Since fighting CPU Yehats is an effort beyond futility even for the Chmmr killing power-gamers at these forums, you run great risk.

Either that or just peg the Terminators from long-distance with your hellfires and it won't shield like it would at short-range. |
