Sorry there weren't any cool trade routes or new ship variants with this release. The whole webserver-crashy thing took a lot of time and left me pretty drained. Hopefully next week will be better. I'll post another news thing on Monday.

Kudos to Phaserlight and Vardonx for the PCC missions.

tried the new 10am BS unfortunatly after 10minutes it got to laggy, i did notice the first trident still goes to try attack the hac and connie, and also alot of NPC's still try to take the hac. Will try the new missions later, any hints on where they are? :P

[EDIT] completed the missions, very nice! ace work vardonx and Phaserlight

The Artemis tree can be found at capitol stations, branching from the Dentek tree. To get to them play the first two Orun processor missions, then the first two Dentek processor missions.

Border Skirmish: Teradons still spawning inside of HACs though they do get free eventually; Itani Teradon seems to get free much earlier, though, resulting in loss or severe reduction of armor of Serco HAC at 15 minute mark of mission (mostly due to friendly fire from embedded Serco Teradon).

Support cap ships still seem very prone to colliding with HACs; I've seen both Connies and Tridents get hung up on the fins of HACs.

Didn't notice any lag problems so steady progress being made. Cheers!

Nice missions phaser. Of course, it would be really nice if you'd warn me that if I get killed while protecting the trident (damned seekers), that I'd lose a large sum of faction. I was POS with serco, then lost 41 faction-points after dying once on the trident protection mission (#1/5). just a warning, that's all I ask.

they are damned fun though.

also, is the valent posi blaster that the core mission tree gives you available outside this mission tree at all? its one heck of a gun.

There's one other place to get one, and it's a secret.

Best warning I can give is here.

Seems I have been warned :).
though for the newbies who don't know to look, maybe a "serco command will be extremely disappointed in you if this mission fails". of course, maybe I also need to read more carefully (if you did say something like that).

Warnings shouldn't be necessary, if you blow a mission you should expect punishment,
