More edits. Added a few clarifications and where (I think) the plot breaks are.

Tip of the day for flying around Aldrin.
Spoiler

Rather then fly around the ROCK, just head straight towards it with a springblossom. Make sure SETA is on and you will fly straight through the Rock. :wink: I do it all the time its great fun, esp if you have some ships trying to follow you :lol:
Hope that helps some of you.

Thank you, Spychotic! Your Walkthrough is a job well done. It was a good reference, and helped me at several points.

Thanks all, for your help.

Thanks, Egosoft, for a nice plot!

The sector I got (Xaar) has Niv asteroids, large and small, and good ore and silicon asteroids. It looks nice to.
Bill in S.F., enjoying the game

For people having problems getting to Freedoms reach via UFJD -- if you have passed the 6 jumps - check to make sure you have a fighter docked :roll:

If you do not have a fighter docked - the mission does not update to the point where you are *supposed* to UFJD to freedoms reach :)

to spell it out: You MUST have a TM with 1 fighter docked :)

Good guide got to the silly suduko thing and just gave up in disgust.

I have no interest in these puzzles this is not why I play X. It is not - Think - in my opinion.

Think is a non liner plot that gives you choices and consequences.

I find this whole scenario just patronising and annoying and not worth the effort.

I could die laughing (not in a good way) at the idea that you can get to a specific location in the vastness of space by jumping at random for a start - dim.

Please plot writers you have to - Think - first before you expect us to - Think - our way through this... words fail me.

I loved the sudoku, it took me the whole day (with X in background) to figure it out because it was a really fiendish one, but the sense of satisfaction is unrivalled.

Sadly my PC at home is not online and if you have to cheat your way out of the pain that kind of says it all. I was hoping for space related challenges.

A well designed plot would be a challenge but at least make enough sense that lots of people would not feel compelled to look up a walkthrough.

To be honest I only came on line to share my pain at my annoyance with yet another bad - X - plot.

Even ignoring the puzzles I just found the whole thing - infantile - not requiring so much the suspension of disbelief as having myself lobotomised.

OK I am getting a bit old and cranky but for some odd reason I was looking forward to doing this one.

EDIT: The thing is I get the feeling that Suduko is like - marmite - love or hate and so not really appropriate as a plot stopper.

^^^ Reminds me of the writers idea that soap with laser guns in it becomes science fiction aka the original V. Something seriously wrong with that sort of thinking.

I took the liberty of saving beforehand and looked at them all. Twisted Skies is pretty unique with a really nice ringed planet(!)

Lol, i picked Guiding Star and halfway there i thought, 'bleh, i shoulda saved and tried them all'.

Problem was my last save was quite a while previously and i couldnt be bothered to redo it all.

Oh well, Guiding Star still looks pretty cool.

When I ger message of this quest, if you say: no im busy.

Will you get message again in future or you will never have the chance of doing this quest again? :?

If not, exactly at which moment of the quest, can you Freeze it for an unlimited amount of time?

Guiding Star has the highest effective yield of asteroids - worth a complex of ~70 S Weapon Factories (inc. food) with ~20k excess EC production.

The other sectors are worth at worst a complex of ~67 S Weapon Factories (inc. food) with ~5k excess EC production
