Starfury? I dont know what that is, but I want it... Privateer is one of my favorite games. Any more info on this Starfury that someone wants to send my way?

And as for story, you're right in that this isnt like, say, a Blizzard game. There really isnt any predescribed plot, but that is what is so attractive. We as players dont have to do anything we dont want to. It's the open-endeness that is so attractive about SEIV... Nevertheless, many veterans of the game will tell you theres plenty of story, only that you have to make it on your own. Currently im engaged in a fierce battle with the Xiang that has Lasted several centuries, with atrocity after atrocity. In my mind (and maybe im just dellusional) I have a huge story going, one that can turn any way and is completly orginal.
