Thank you for the reply. Is it worth it to dedicate the time and resources for the techs to build one in the scenarios/campaign? Are the anomalies that detrimental to winning a scenario? Or does it depend on the specific mission objective(s)? Thanks for any more info.

Greetings. I have not played in a long, long time. So . . . I am starting the TOA campaign. I thought I was supposed to start with a survey ship. Am I confused or what? I sure is heck don't have one! Thanks for any replies.

I have finally figured out what bothers me about the textures in this series - the textures are too gorgeous and pristine. I don't feel they convey the extreme environment of space. Are there any texure mods that model this?

Mumblefratz - My sincere thanks. You have answered my questions to the point. I could have, of course, through trial and error and thumbing through the digital manual discovered the answers, but learned and experienced players on this forum are a much better source of knowledge. Thanks again!

The only thing left on their planet is a starbase and

Grettings - It seems I cannot quite understand the ship upgrade process. For some reason my simpleton brain cannot figure it out. So, here I am asking for help . . . I will explain as best I can: Let's say I have a ship. I will dub it "DethKillar." [e digicons]:grin:[/e] I want to upgrade it. So, I select said ship in the shipyard to upgrade. It is a stock ship, provided by the game, no upgrades whatsoever. I want it to shoot, so I add a
