I'd like to know this as well

Maybe a dev can clear this up, because apparently nobody knows...

Altair lies outside of the N.S.E. declared "Safe Travel Zone" and is off limits to private citizens.  

The N.S.E. hopes to have the Altair Warpgate network operational soon.

Oh gotcha :D.  Thanks for the reply!! I guess I'll just wait until it's safe enough for my defenseless 10 w'rrrcnator loaded forgone to travel in.

Yes thanks C: Wrrrcnastors are good, but golden retribution X's are better ;)

Lol you know what I passed up the golden retribution III and got the golden missiles instead.  The stats didn't amuse me... maybe I read them wrong heh.  I like the pirate weapons better though.

The pirates have some very fun and very cheap weapons.  It's worth doing the pirate missions just to get access to their stores.

Lol I like that pirate plasma weapon that fires for 22 seconds straight.  It doesn't do much damage, but it frees up my hands to push on my main cannons more frequently.

Hell with strategy like that(weapon type strategy), i have a daedelus with 10 golden ret x's, and every shield upgrade i could find in the galaxy, and ive never dropped below half health in a battle. Due to the fact i mostly kill all 5 enemies in less than a second :3 With tougher enemies i use some strategy with the shield boost and win easily. It is true that the golden ret x's are the best weapons in the game

The daedelus is waaay to slow for my tastes.
