Hi all - thought I'd kill some time before the next sequel is ready and go shopping for a Drayman. I finished RF and the bonus campaigns, and have been flying around a lot. People here say Draymans show off randomly, but I have probably visited 50 bases or so and have not found a single one... any hints w/o hacking the files?
Thanks! Kai
Buying a Drayman?

Thanks Spiff - I tried those (except for getting a cargo mission to 41 gs) and had no success, hence I thought I'd check back.
Anyone else dying for a new, tough storyline - or a sequel ?

found...!
Thanks guys - just took a while until the random number generator finally gave me one. New Detroit, Ship dealer. Looked under 'ships', 'merchant', 'Light Capships' .
Whowie the thing looks good !!! All new and shiny!
So proud... keep polishing it and boasting...
Maxed it out instantly. Get some 1,000,000 credit cargo runs.
Only problem: my cargo doesnt arrive. It's a sitting duck. No missiles, two guns. No auto-tracked turrets - two dralthi are enough to roast me before I can jump out-system. Tried to tractor them in, but no such luck. Maybe I have a chance if I buy autotrackers for my sturdy guns & tractor beam - that's the only thing that's still missing.
Can a drayman launch fighters such as a Paradigm or Kamekh can?
Otherwise I have to hire wingmen...
Imagine a drayman "gunship" version with 4 omnidirectional autotracked AI missile launchers, same number of autotracked AI fusion turrets, and 4 main forward ionic pulse cannons, plus the shields and armor it already has ...
*sigh* I am getting carried away here!
Thanks again for the game everyone, it's literally a *blast*

Drayman
Kinda i face drayman as a temporary moneymaker, instead of doing cargo missions, capture cat ships, theyr worth at least 1.4kk at the commodity exchange (gothri is 2.5kk)
all u have to do is when capture one kilrath, release it for fighting and capture the other, its pretty easy and efficient hehe, its a good way to have money to buy the paradigm when you finish PR.
*Each cat ship ocupyes like 4000 of ur cargo, when the drayman has only 5000 avaible, so DONT FORGET to release them once you capture them (they become your wingmen hehe)
