Hey there! I hope this isn't annoying, but I'm a newbie to TW2002 (last time I played TW was tennish years ago) and I'm going nuts trying to figure some of this stuff out. Major karma points to anyone kind enough to help!

1) If you own multiple unmanned ships, is there any way to get them all into your citadel? Is it possible to park them in there like it was a garage and take out whichever one you need? (I don't remember the old version of the game even letting you have multiple ships!) I have three or four that I swap for different needs, but I can't seem to get more than one at a time into the citadel. Which leads to...

2) One of my ships is a Tholian. Does it have to be landed on the planet in a citadel to get it's 4:1 defense odds? Or does it have to be in the sector off the planet to defend it?

Thanks!

1. Only manned ships can land on a planet and enter a citadel.

2. Tholians must be manned, in the sector, to defend your planets. However, even unmanned tholian ships will get increased odds when they are in the same sector as a corp planet, they just won't stop anyone from attacking the planet.

If you haven't been there already, check out my web-site, http://www.tw-cabal.com. It has a lot of good info that will help any player at any skill level.

Cool. Thanks so much!

What was the last version you played?

If it was HVS MBBS, game play has drastically changed since then. We now play on TWGS.

Check out my website at http://www.twgazette.com and click on the MBBS-TWGS comparision link and there's a chart on the differences of the two versions.

Here are my favorite sites to send newbies and rejoiners to the game.
As you will notice the previous post are repeated by me. because they are that good. Also check out the forums, When were not fighting some good info is shared lol. Welcome back and good luck. contact me if you want to know some games that are not real agressive to get the feel of things. Or jump into the big games and get podded, I have learnt more dieing then any other way ...

There are alot of great players that will help too just ask.

I do have to get my butt moving and get more work done on my site, namely the BOTE news as well as a files page. I been so fricking busy I have not been able to write about the BOTE. Things will settle in a few days.

Thanks for the props, TW55. [:)]
