Well, that's the end of the introduction to this guide the useful stuff starts in the next section, good luck!Ĭombat ShipsThese ships are made for fighting. Please note that this guide is based on the default keyboard and mouse configuration. So go ahead, try using a gamepad and see how you like it. You however, might not like using a gamepad. I personally prefer playing with a gamepad as I find it makes controlling ships a lot easier. One thing to note is that this guide is written with a more of a combat orientated money maker approach to things, so if you are more into the trading aspect of the game and want to keep out of combat as much as possible, then this guide may not be as useful for you. Please note that this guide is mainly for those of you who are completely new to the X series and space simulations in general, so if you have past experience in either or both of those things, some of what is in this guide might not be new to you. XTC does for Terran Conflict what XTM does for Reunion.So you've found the wonders of the X-universe in Terran Conflict, but don't know where to start? This guide should make things easier and start you on your way to making an intergalactic empire. Like the XTM mod for Reunion, much of which found its way into Terran Conflict as signed scripts and functions, another modpack of code updated for Terran Conflict exists. Like Reunion, there is also a Bonus Pack of signed scripts that enables enhanced options and gameplay, particularly regarding freighter management. There are in particular several exploits and unbalanced missions available in early versions which enable players to obtain funds unusually easily.

Many new weapons have been added all Terran weapons and munitions, the Teladi ammo-based weapons, the range of available flak weapons is expanded, the range of Boron ion weaponry is expanded, and the availble missiles are expanded.Įarly versions of TC have some serious balance issues. Weapon variants have been axed completely in this game. However, there are sections of the X-Universe where the economy at game start is dreadfully unbalanced and quickly gets taken apart by GoD, resulting in the potentially permanent loss of some equipment. Not only is the X-Universe expanded in this game, but the number of NPC traders is expanded over Reunion. The TM is a freighter equipped to dock 4 (or 3) fighters for defense in addition to hauling a reasonably sized load across the X-Universe. The M8 represents a cheap way of taking down Capital ships and stations, which previously required an M2 and otherwise requires an M7 which, whilst still cheaper than an M2, is not cheap enough for early game players. The M7M is widely regarded as somewhat unbalanced, as it is a long range artillery unit with no real weaknesses and enormous offensive power.

The M7 is a successful attempt to bridge the gap between the Corvette and Destroyer classes, providing a smaller and cheaper Capital-class ship. The M7 Frigate, M7M Missile Frigate, M8 Bomber and TM Military Transport are all new to this game. TC expands the repertoire of ships again with several new classes. Many maps exist, and can be found on the guides sticky in the Egosoft forums. Many are unlocked as progression through the various plotlines is achieved. There are more than 225 sectors in the TC X-Universe. The game is set in the aftermath of the reconnection of the Solar System with the jumpgate network, and its plotlines deal with the friction between Terrans and Commonwealth, the final defeat of the Kha'ak, the expansion of the Terrans back into some of their former colonies and other miscellaneous plots that provide the player with some interesting rewards. This Wiki is based on the gameplay of this Egosoft release at version v3.0. It is highly moddable, though according to uploaded game statistics a smaller proportion of players mod it in comparison to its predecessor. Terran Conflict uses the same engine as Reunion, but with an improved menu system, a yet bigger universe, and some new ship classes. It is widely held to be the best game of the series. X3: Terran Conflict is a 2008 stand-alone expansion for X3: Reunion.
