Haven't gotten that far- if you don't attack or communicate with the scorpions (It may just be through having language set to Russian, testing needed) they'll decide it's a better idea just to eat your inventory. Good news, whatever was in my inventory was apparently very tasty for the cash shop as I now have the money to fund a military takeover of a small country.

If you do decide to do that, make sure you avoid the Green King's Corps. They're probably the least-trustworthy mercenary band I've seen, they've got over 60% of their hires resulting in them going turncoat.

I honestly wouldn't trust any mercs, but I hear a lot of players have put them to good use. Me? I prefer lone-wolfing.

You can stop the Green Kings Corps from turncoating if you place the wand of uselessness into their donation box. They keep trying to figure out what it does and stay on your side, just make sure they do not have a SCIENCE! skill of more than 20 or they will shoot you on sight.

Does anyone remember what they did to Old King Grimwarp? I remember he used to lead the armies of Science-Corp but now they seem to be lead by Dr.NotEvil, and I need Grimwarp for the quest And Now For Something Completely...Giraffe

[Freshmaniscoolman]

Yeah but the warden usually levels up at this point.

[Remuthra]

I persnally like the mercs from the WoL expansion. If you Dominate them, it's pretty easy to keep them under control.

Meh, as a player-mercenary myself, I find that NPC mercs are just a waste of time, if a bit easier to hire. That, and the player-mercenaries have their own small confederation set up, so if you anger them, depending on how we feel, we retaliate. The non sci-fi server player mercenaries are pretty good at their jobs, too.

As for the cash shop job, which server are you going to go for the kill? I need to know because that way I can figure out which character to send over, or if I can use my space-whale ships.

Carpathians are the best mercenary corp in my opinion.

Okay, so my army of life has started expanding, haven't run into much trouble besides a couple nub fleets. Sensors are indicating a more powerful fleet the next system over with a B12 fleet tag, so if I find you I hope we can ally and I don't have to wage a costly war.

I think I only have a couple other things to worry about at this stage, aside from extra-galactic invaders or mechanic slip-ups.

[Fniff]

Best mercenaries? NPCs are the Dread March. They've got the same equipment as the Death Corps but they aren't as crazy and random. Players would be Lazoreyes. They follow your orders to the letter and their mercenaries are very highly trained.

[sjm9876]

Nah, it's got to be the Presides for mercenaries. You have to beat their boss to unlock them, in a really epic battle, no spoilers given.
But yeah, they have even better equips, and they're all mounted on elemental drakes.

[Fniff]

The problem with them is that their AI hasn't really been updated to deal with some of the exploits, meaning that they're pretty easy to destroy. Plus they're limited to the Fantasy worlds due to their magic: the Dread March are universal.

[sjm9876]

Ah, of course. I only really play the fantasy world due to the fact the orcs in the future worlds are vastly OP and far too commor. A random encounter with an OP enemy every 2 minutes really spoils the fun.

[Fniff]

Depends on the future world in question. They're technically not orcs, though, they're the "Green Plague". More like the Orks from 40k mixed with Redlight from Prototype. If you have a spaceship with chemical sprayers installed, get a few vials of Agent Yellow and start spraying it around. It works a treat.

Nobody came to the Beldam raid...

I ended up having to tank her somehow. Managed it with potion spam/Raven Storm spam...

[Vorthon]

Uh.... So, apparently, I've managed to set off some kind of hard-takeoff tech singularity event in the primary sci-fi server. All I know is that at least a quarter of the Libra galaxy is kind of devoid of non-augmented life. Hell, at least a tenth of has all of its planets converted into computronium.

_{Sorry 'bout that. I guess.}

[IamanElfCollaborator]

You fool!

Now I have to go back onto that server because the freaking patrol is calling me up..

I thought I'd left it behind after Deliverance!
