New Server: Pirate PvE
The fifth and final faction for Space Wars, the Free Peoples of Sol has finally launched. On this server, players can try these 'Pirates', working together against AI to dominate the server. Originating from New Terra in the Helix Nebula, this faction is a conglomeration of Human and Genari defectors that combine their technology (along with some stolen Ma'Alaketh tech) to produce some rather unique warships.
Their strengths:
-Can support large fleets of AI combat ships
-Strong boarding units and xp gains from capturing ships/bounties
-Can attack any sector, regardless of being adjacent to a captured region
Their weaknesses:
-Very expensive ships
-No high tier battleships or dreadnaughts
-Long cooldowns for lost ships
-Only three dedicated officers
-Weak support ships
So have fun and enjoy this new faction, with all its unique ways to conquer the galaxy :)
