My name is Birdman, and I'm relatively new to the Discovery Mod. I'm an experience Freelancer player, but just stumbled upon this Mod about a week ago and I'm hooked.
I was wondering if people could maybe let me in on the happenings in the Sirius System.
Since playing I've been stopped by the Kusari Military and told to take a different route to my destination. I've been forced to pay a pirate $1.5 mil so he didn't kill me. And just moments ago I made a run to dock at a station so another pirate couldn't force money out of me.
I'm wondering about the differences between Freelancer and Discovery. I'm to understand that Bretonia and Kursari are at war, as are Liberty and Rheinland? There is a new additional alien race called the Wilde.
I'm a rather neutral party when it comes to wars, but I do like to get into the mix of things. However I'm no pirate.

Whats best for a pilot like myself?
First of all welcome to Disco.
Read the rules and you should be ok.
about the RP part you will learn with time take the time to read the RP section in the forums and the Bar's new letters.
There is a lot of politics around only time will show you the way:)
Welcome to the nuthouse known as Discovery !!
You'll get a good feeling whats going on by reading the forums ( if you have your encyclopedia head on :crazy:)
Theres just so much going on it'll take a bit to get the handle on it all :D

Become a Zoner, neutral to all except nomads and wilde and since they travel all over Sirius you'll get to know the history and politics pretty quickly.
They tend to take a pretty poor view of Zoners. Harvesters think they taste like chicken ^^
Anywho, welcome!

In order to find out what faction suits you best, you could consult this thread here which offers some possibilities.
Also, the Disco Rookie post by Xoria should just be the right thing in order to get a general orientation how things are running over here.
And, on a final note, you might be interested in the Disco Wiki, containing lots and lots of information.
But I'll cease my idle banter for now - have fun in outer space and enjoy the flying!:)
There was a commodity in your hold, when you began the game in a Starflea, with a short detail of the events that happened. (However, you probably sold it.)
Join a faction and do not buy a capital ship. (Additionally, do not buy an Advanced Train or ever carry diamonds, niobium, also be ignorant of the Choguku jumphole, wait, it would be better if you did not even trade.)
