Just chased a disc shaped unkown object across a few systems then lost it.... it was traveling about 450, first one ive seen for the whole game so far. my attepts to capture it failed; it was just too damn fast.

Aliens are among us!!... Be afraid be very afraid!!

Good fun isn't it

Spoiler

Show

I've sent M5's after it, but they keep getting led into Xenon sectors. First time my Disco got led to the sector north of black hole sun... when I promptly ordered it to return home before it was destroyed. Second time it got led to the Xenon sectors in the northeast. Theres nowhere to go from up there except the unknown system, and thats a deadend too... I wonder why it was going there?

My M5 got nailed before it left the Xenon sector, so I don't know. Maybe it would have turned around, maybe just dissapeared *shrug*

Have you seen on the fried-foe list it lists ALL races and then that the bottom it says something like neutral races. Who are they??? Or more to the point where are they!!!

When you know what it is, it wouldn't be an UFO anymore.

The UFO is not capturable. Of course, that doesn't mean you can't have it.

That thing has a wicked yaw.

After all the talk about the UFO, it was good to see one myself a few weeks ago. It's just the oddest thing to see that saucer flitting on through, a will o'wisp impossible to trap. Got to hand it to Egosoft for interjecting a bit of humor into this really great and complex game.

Had to get my two cents in - back to building the empire now.

If you read the "dominion" novella thats on disk 2 it explains what the silver disks (UFO) are. They are "Helpers" that were sent out by the race that created the gates to help advance the technology of species that they deem worthy, like the boron.
