This is what I think will help - After talking to the Slyl0, leave the star system and wait in hyperspace, you'll be attacked by a probe, then talk to Slyl0 again. I think that will help. LMK.

Uhm... Off-topic much? Tongue

Anyways, VUX ships can easily be killed with your Earthling cruiser, and you won't be using the Vindicator for fights any time soon so sell the weapons and dynamoes and buy turning jets and thrusters instead. Now, with Earthling Cruiser, fly away from the VUX, then turn around and fire missiles at them. Keep your distance. Just try it a few times and VUX won't ever be a problem, ever, at all, ever again. Free cash ^^;

Yes I've tried that, but only once, and I lost, and I figured the smaller vessel's lack of "hp" makes playing the bigger one a better option...

Hi, I've just started playing, and my biggest problem right now is that I can't really live through space battles - When in Hyperspace, all my Deep Space Encounters are with one race, and are always hostile. I've managed to win a battle but I can never win two, since one victory lowers my crew from 50 to 12 or so. I can barely turn my spaceship or accelerate, and the enemy vessel is just so much faster and moves around alot, and my horrible turning speed can't ever keep up - the enemy ship can just stay directly behind me all the time if it want. I've also been unable to fire this so-called 'secondary weapon' the manual speaks of.

Some other clarifications I'd like:
1) What does "manifest" do? I've tried taking some men on that little shuttle I have in addition to my mothership, but pressing enter keeps switching between the "choosing a ship" and "choosing amount of crew" phases - I don't know what to do except gather minerals until I run out of fuel! :/
2) When approaching Earth an Ur-Quan probe messages me, telling me that I should stay put and wait for them to arrive. Obviously I didn't do that, but how am I supposed to approach Earth for any purpose? :\

Thanks in advance...
