They flee for their freedom to the nearest station in the same sector. They are astronaut at this point! If you pick them up like any other ware, you can sell them to the pirates. Beware, you do need a TP or a Cargo Life Support upgrade aboard your ship or a new "carwash".

The military personal can be hired at any Trading Station or Equipment Dock, however there are not much trained crews so they dont stay long for hire. Get a Manta with a Transporter Device and Jumpdrive. If you see a supply-craft, check his destination and send your Manta to it to await him. Just be very fast.

Just for the heck of it, i was planning to activate that gunnery script and maybe equip one Osprey with some PSG/HEPT etc guns and some gunnery crew, just to mess up with the Xenons a bit when i'm off building/tweaking fabs. Is this viable? Or they are only useful on M1/M2's? Don't have any M1/2's yet, too busy with fab-bing.

Chazz.

If you want to spend a 54million upgrade on a 16million ship, by all means.

And what's so wrong with that - I installed AEGIS in my Iguana, purely for the missile defence options...

To be honest it isn't any good at all - it simply didn't work :(, I guess because it's not an Argon ship. I installed it as a 'just in case' idea & anyway, sometimes I do slow down (e.g. to hide in a blind spot when taking on Xenon K's). It's still there in case a future update of the script makes it work with this ship.
