That's the situation I'm in. I wanted to complete the Duke's one first because many other race missions involve upsetting pirates by killing them, they don’t like that.Jan Zapletal wrote:Its looks like Duke HQ is broken, same as Strong Arms HQ - they give starting mission in ver. 1.0, but since game is patched they dont offer work any more.
Just for the record, I am using v1.4.
Waited for 1.4 before trying to do much more than explore a little.
I can get any number of mission briefs from Dukes Haven and now the subsequent stations they ask me to build there....if I want to risk a battle.
Got other plans for now...finish FF and Hub missions and try pirate missions from other bases.

As I Understand It, there are Two requirements to get the starting Dukes Mission from 1.4 onwards (possibly earlier patches too).
1) You must be in a Paranid Ship when you comm the station (possibly Paranid Fighter).
2) The Dukes station must be blue to you.
P.S. Earlier in the thread there was a question about the Sirokos not being an OTAS reward, & I didn't see a response. AIUI, in 2.0a it became a buyable M7M when your rep is high enough, but the consensus seems to be that 10 extra marines doesn't compensate for losing the ability launch anything else (Boarding Pods/Marines Only).
1) You must be in a Paranid Ship when you comm the station (possibly Paranid Fighter).
2) The Dukes station must be blue to you.

Getting the Dukes Station to turn blue requires 1 of 2 things, Hacking it, or waiting for it to be respawned after destruction whilst your Pirate rep isn't completely in the bin. You do not have to be the one to destroy the station, GoD will send a Paranid Battlefleet after it some point, however you do need to destroy the defence fleet whilst the station isn't going to be turned back to red by your actions, or they will stay red to you.
FYI, at the start of the game there are Pirate Bases 4 & 5 jumps away which puts them out of hacking range (AFAIK this is 3 jumps), but they may respawn closer (or further) once someone trashes them.w

Anyone actually managed to start Duke's missions?
I started my current game in v.1.4, ATM I'm blue with 95% of pirates, Duke's HQ and his fleet is also friendly and I'm flying a Hyperion. Still no missions. Tried building/crushing to the max my Paranid rank too but it didn't help. Tried flying IS with a Pegasus and a Zeus, still no mission.

The Hyperion is not a fighter, you need to fly a Paranid fighter (M5, M4, M3). And yes, I started Duke's missions1muvwndr wrote:Anyone actually managed to start Duke's missions?

I was under the impression that the Pegasus is a fighter, IIRC it's an M5.vbruzual wrote:The Hyperion is not a fighter, you need to fly a Paranid fighter (M5, M4, M3). And yes, I started Duke's missions1muvwndr wrote:Anyone actually managed to start Duke's missions?

Very funny Deadbeat.

Anyways, it's not clear if you entered the sector in the Pegasus or you transfered to it IS. I think you have to actually enter the sector flying a fighter

The code just checks for 'fighter', so any Paranid M5/M4/M3 (or + variant) should work.1muvwndr wrote:OK, it looks like you have to fly a BASIC version of a fighter. The Pegasus was a Raider variant and didn't work. I tried then a Medusa and I got the mission.
Bear in mind that there's a delay before missions are offered.
Code: Select all
<cue name="L2M46 Initial Offer" delay="300s">
<condition>
<check_all>
<check_age value="{player.age}" min="{value@L2M46.time}s"/>
<object_sector exact="0">
<sector sector="L2M46.HQSector"/>
</object_sector>
<match_object maker="paranid" class="fighter"/>
<check_value value="{value@L2M46.DoMissions}" exact="0"/>
<!-->
<check_value value="{player.fightrank}" min="3333"/>

</check_all>
</condition>
