In memory of Skull. 
Star Control 2 (or The Ur-Quan Masters by it's open-source name) is good enough for me to hunt down SC1 and see if SC3 was even done, and if not I could probably work out a good bit myself as any new graphics wouldn't need too much work and the engine is simple enough to mess around with.

My problem with the Eluder is probably that I'm too impatient. My absolute favorite for combat would be the Precursor flagship with 2 hellbore cannons, 2 tracking systems, and enough power supply (it's hilarious to just one-shot kill the Umgah in story mode, until they did the warp thing and reduced my crew to about 10 people after 30 ships. But Thraddash are the best fodder for that.

I think the funniest part of playing SC2 for the first time was that I literally tried to harvest every planet possible and then I noticed that the Khor-ah sphere kept moving to kill everyone (it was pretty suspicious, but by then I was hardly getting enough resources for fuel, so I found the wiki and started over). Now I realise that the best way was to get the Warp Pod and cash in on the Rainbows.

The Pkunk is something for the expert pilots because it weaponry sucks so bad (short range pea-shooters and manual recharge is not the best on the market) that the reincarnation thing had to be added to balance it for anyone with less skill.

It's still a great game, and I'm actually pleased to know I'm not alone in that corner of the free-stuff-community.
