Especially for fighter pilots, never ever launch missiles while under fire. And certainly not Hammerheads!

Dont be afraid to Tick other races off. Attacking ships may affect your race rank but getting the game agitated will cause weird and wonderful reactions that keep your game interesting.

Don't try to shoot down an M5 with guns (not even flak) of an M7 (or bigger) during a station protection mission.... chances are you will destroy the station before the M5.

If a crate shows up as containing a Hammerhead missile, don't shoot it.

Check your messages list often.
