Inheritance of Evochron games
Hello! In previuos Evochron games there were so-called "hidden planets": uncharted planets where you could buy all hi-tech items and ships. These planets located near Aries, Cerulean, Virgo, Pearl and Deneb systems. I can't confirm whether they existed in Evochron Renegades as I don't have much time to launch and play it (I'm a gamer-necromancer
), but I know they existed in Evochron Legends (finished its main quest half a year ago) and in Evochron Mercenary (coordinates are the same in both games!). In Legacy there are no signs of their existence (I checked Pearl and Deneb). Of course, they could be depopulated or even destroyed during the last Alliance-Federation war, but they couldn't perished without any trail. At least asteroid fields should remain (remember Evochron Legends and Mercenary intros?). What I'd like to say: these planets weren't generic planets but the part of Evochron history. Similar to RiftSpace, Vonarion, WolfZone which (thank you, Vice!) still exist. May be it is possible to return them? Or at least as asteroid fields. I think it would be logical.

Re: Inheritance of Evochron games
Hey. I can't really say because I'm new to the Evochron series (all those wasted years not playing the best space sandbox series around ><), but I've heard that the hidden planets you mention may only have moved and are still in the game.
I can't confirm though and to be quite honest I gave up on searching for Pearl hidden planet before bruteforce insanities drove me mad.

Re: Inheritance of Evochron games
I'm also new to Evochron (and also regret about wasted time), started only in 2013. Several users created short stories and DaveK compiled them into one pdf. There you can read the story of Evochron sector about events which take place in games from RiftSpace to Evochron Renegades and Arvoch Alliance. Unfortunately the story ends where Evochron Legends begins. I was intrigued and purchased Legends and Renegades. I also created screenshots revealing Legends main quest. So if somebody wishes to continue the story or create new unofficial guide I can share them.

Re: Inheritance of Evochron games
There is a blue nebulae in Lost Rucker system. In its core there was a planet called Novachron. Yes, you couldn't see it on the radar because it was cloacked in nebulae. On the planet's surface there also was a city. It was always windy and rainy weather on that planet, with thunder and lightnings. When I jumped into nebulae for the first time I crushed into pieces. Now it is empty space. Only nebulae.

Hello,
Not going to post any spoilers, but there is lots of hidden stuff, scanners and radar can't always see them, use your eyes.

Re: Inheritance of Evochron games
Planet Novachron (EL) is still where it was in EM. To avoid spoilers, u2u me if interested.
I've been very busy lately, so I'll get back to you as soon as I can. Please be patient.

No hurry, RC ... but I'd also be interested in its location (via PM).
You can look up the coords for Novachron on http://mercenary.junholt.se since it's on the same spot according to RC.
