so in this game I'm playing, I've been killed. in the first 4 minutes after bang. yeah uh huh, blame kemper. Anyways, when I relive, I'm stuck in a custom ship with no scanners. And apparently there's a SD blockade with people waiting to warp in and kill me. How does one get to SD? Or barring that, just enough money to buy some figs? I start out with 10 holds...


There's an 8-hour time limit.

Well, no scanner will make it tough on you. I would do a sector at a time in the area you are in. I would trade at ANY port pair, ORE/EQP, ORE/ORG whatever. Then when mande enough money head to 1 and use that to port at. Perhaps you'll stumble on the Alpha or Rylos ports, use them write it down. Barring that, get on when no one is on, or right after extren when the MLS lanes are cleaned up.

You might want to take a look at:

It's not the most comprehensive document, but it might help you get past a blockade.

The big thing is to use macros. Speed is important.

Also, you might want to PPT in fed for a bit and get some more holds and figs and shields at Terra. You will need a bunch of figs if you want to macro your way into the SD.
