- Do you want to improve the odds? I obtained (with a little help from
Gary Wong) the secret space maps from Admiral Lorenzen! They show the
distribution of pirates on the various courses and should help you to
avoid the worst battles. Pirates are unpredictable, though. These are
just guidelines, details vary on each mission. Plan your course for destination:
Kozzar-7
Zipo-Aga
Splyteux
- There was a period when I took meticulous notes of the success
of the various gun men, or bots, or teddies. The result can be seen
in my Battle Statistics.
