I'm kinda stuck here.

The Syreen told me to lure the Mycon to Organon. Ok, so I go to Beta Brahe I, tell them about Organon, then head on over to that system. But there's no one there on the closest planet.

What am I missing or what didn't I do?

you might have to wait a while.
P.S where is the Syreen Homeworld, since you seen to know ;)

Beta Brahe.....eh...no wonder, that's the wrong mycon world.  Need to go to the source of Juffo-wup, not the mycon special place.  Try looking through mycon space to find the other mycon world.  You'll know you found it, cause they react when you tell them about Organon, instead of insisting you leave.

P.S.  The syreen were slave shielded on the...um..er..bugsquirt start system.

what system is the second mycon world? and is there a way to get the Syreen out?

If I recall, don't the Mycon tell you straight away where the "source of Juffo-Wup" is?

no, those guys pretty much talk to themselves

I believe they were supposed to tell you where the source is, but strangely they don't.  I believe I have it written in my notes around here....one sec...

and if by out, you mean out from under the slave shield, yeah.  Win the game :)

EDIT:

Ah, yes, here it is.  My notes list the mycon homeworld as Epsilon Scorpii I.

i think i'v ben there, and they nailed all my cruisers to their moons, but i took quite a few of them down with me ;)

They're much less likely to "nail all of your cruisers to the moon" if the main fleet is off having fun with the Syreen fleet.

Not at Epsilon Scorpii they're not.

Juffo-Wup is the hot light in the darkness.
All else is unfulfilled Void.
The source of Juffo-Wup is at 629.1, 220.8.


Uhhh....checked myself....yep...Epsilon Scorpii I.

*Grin* miscommunication, perhaps?  I meant they're not less likely to nail you to the moon at epsilon scorpii while they're away...since they always have infinite ships there.

Strangely enough, that text isn't actually in UQM though.  Didn't make the port from PC to 3DO all those years ago.  Probably explains why this question gets asked so much.

ED:  Doesn't help the pretty much every SC2 faq out there gets this bit wrong, either.   Every one I've seen says go to beta brahe to tell em.  We might want to put together an UQM faq.

Thanx for all the help guys. Yeah, I'm pretty sure the 3DO version does not state where Juffo-Wup is. Same goes for the location of Syra.  I remember playing the PC version all those years ago and not having problems locating worlds (except perhaps Rainbow worlds, which took me the belated discovery of a ruler to figure out :) )

I'm still trying to figure out how to use a ruler.  My math teacher really hates me for it.

The problem with Star Control 2 faqs is a fairly big one... There are no decent ones out there!!!  When I got back into the game and got stuck at this point, I only found on FAQ that had this information in it.  Not only that, it was incorrect and told me to go to Beta Brahe.  I figured out myself, after visiting nearly every damn system in Mycon space, where to go.  It was quite strange, seeing I has no problems finding the place when I first played the game, and I was 7 back then.   ;D

I suggest using Utwig ships against the Mycon Fleet guarding Beta Brahe (post-Organon). It's incredibly easy even if you're a sloppy melee fighter (like me) to take out their entire fleet without taking a single casuality.

Yeah, once you have an Utwig or two, it's rather fun to go for a rampage in Mycon space. you are absolutely untouchable. Fungi boys just dont stand a chance.
