Not sure what the problem with the first email was - I know my ISP has problems sometimes. An alternative address would be sits07@yahoo.co.uk

The Taprisiot species is included in the book, "The Dosadi Experiment" by Frank Herbert (the "Dune" series).

Cursed IOD's: I spend 50EC's to rush a skimship, then only get 20EC's for killing the IOD!!! Oh well, at least I got a morale upgrade, too.

Although the wealth we originally sought on this barren planet has eluded us, why we have stumbled upon an area rich in minerals, nutirents, and other materials: this will be a good area to creat our redoubt in.
In other pirate news we still have not found what we originally have come here for: the legendary pirate Googlie had said that there was buried treasure on this rock. We will keep looking for that, as well as any other scalawags that might be seeking the same prize....

Just how many IOD's are on this Planet, anyways!?! I've only been involved in the game a few turns, and I've already encountered 3 IOD's (like one every other turn!)!

However, I do seem to be overcoming this issue by adapting a "wolfpack" approach to exploration.

We have encountered a small seagoing vessel belonging to the known rascal Hobbes: we have issued a warning that we cannot guarrantee the safety of such merchant vessels in these waters, and we hope that they do make it back to port with their cargo of an alien artifact....
