SECTION 1 SECTION 1
Declaration of Intent
The purpose of this manual is to familiarize prospective pilots
with LSF protocol, tactics, and technology. While the LSF
recognizes that the written word is no substitute for experience in
the  eld, we place requirements upon individual pilots far greater
than those found in other organizations. For that reason, a solid
understanding of LSF methodology is critical to a pilot’s success,
long before he or she enters a combat scenario. The  rst section
of this manual explains how an LSF of cer is expected to behave
while on a base.
NOTICE: Non-compliance with LSF procedure as
outlined in this document may result in federal
prosecution.
Base HUD
This is how the HUD appears when you are on a base, space
station, or other stationary object.
Base Protocol
When you travel to one of the many bases in the Sirius Sector,
you will encounter the following environments:
LAUNCH PAD Allows you to return to the Launch
Pad. From there, click the Launch to Space icon to launch
to space. The actual Launch Pad icon may be different
from the one pictured here, depending on your location.
BAR Allows you to network with people from all over
the colonies, many of whom offer vital information, useful
rumors, and lucrative job offers. Bars generally feature
Job Boards and News Monitors for further opportunities
and information.
Trent: For the right price, some
pubgoers can clear your reputation
with a rival faction.
COMMODITY TRADER Allows you to buy
or sell Food, Fuel, Oxygen, Medicine, and other items.
Be aware that commodity traders occasionally traf c
in illegal goods.
EQUIPMENT DEALER Allows you to buy
or sell weapons and equipment, and repair your ship.
SHIP DEALER Allows you to trade your ship.
The standard LSF  ghting vessel is the Liberty Light
Fighter, available on Manhattan, Los Angeles, Denver,
and Houston.
Trent: Of the 40 or so ship types
available in Sirius, choose one that
suits your needs. Freighters are great
for merchant work, but you can’t beat
a heavy  ghter in a skirmish.
