Freelancer General Knowledge, Round 1

Bruchsal Base, Frankfurt System, must be friendly with the Bundschuh. Edited by - Zedicus on 12/2/2004 9:10:18 AM

That was quick. But yes, it´s Bruchsal Base in the Frankfurt system and it´s owned by the Bundschuh. You each get one for that, because D34N didn´t say what system it´s in, which doesn´t exactly help someone who wants to know<img src=smilies/icon_smile_tongue.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle> <b>Question 2 </b> Mathematically speaking, which is better, the Nomad Cannon or Blaster?

The Nomad Energy Cannon is ever so slightly better.

Cannon

I´m giving that one to Codename - the previous post looks like guesswork to me. <b>Question 3 </b> There´s exactly one place the Eagle can be bought - what is it? Base + system for 2 points

Freeport 9, Omicron Theta

Spot on. <b>Question 4 </b> How many DIFFERENT Class 10 weapons exist in Freelancer?

18. 17 Guns + 1 Missile.

Can i suggest a question? (Name all the samura owned planets)

Codename gets that one and the extra bonus point for spotting the Paralyzer. Most people forget that one. If you want to suggest a question, send it to me. Email´s in the profile. I´ll credit you if I use it. <b>Question 5 </b> What is the minimum number of jumps you must make to get from Omega-5 to Tau-37? I´m not interested in the names of the systems.

5 Jumps

4, actually

4 is indeed the correct answer. The route in question is Omega-5 -&gt; Omega 41 -&gt; Omicron Theta -&gt; Omicron Alpha -&gt; Tau-37. I defy you to do it in fewer jumps<img src=smilies/icon_smile_tongue.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle> <b>Question 6 </b> Spot the odd one out, and give the reason: Tizona Del Cid, Gaia´s Savior Type B, Wyrm Type 2, Drail, Gendaito Note: I´m thinking of a particular reason, but if you can come up with an equally valid one you´ll get the points

Tizonia del cid is the only shield killer.

Actually, Wyrm Type 2. It has a range of 700, while the rest have ranges of 600.

Neither of those is the one I was thinking of, but you can both have points for those. The one I was thinking of is that they´re all weak against graviton shields except for the Wyrm, but I guess that was a bit obscure. <b>Question 7 </b> In which system is there a faceoff between the Corsairs and Hessians?
