Happy Monday, everyone!
The Intergalactic Aerospace Expo 2954 kicked off last week in New Babbage, drawing spaceship enthusiasts from across the galaxy to the frosty planet of microTech. The expo halls offer a rotating lineup of ships and ground vehicles each day, with over 150 available to try out for free. Check the schedule to make sure you don’t miss anything. You can also use rented ships to tackle IAE Academy tasks and pick up some extra equipment along the way. For new pilots, it’s a great chance to start exploring the ‘verse – the IAE Free Fly runs from November 22 to December 5.
If you’re looking to dive deeper into the latest ships and hear about upcoming gameplay, check out the Crusader Intrepid Q&A for more information about our latest starter. Also, be sure to catch the new IAE Show for some good ol’ fashioned fun – Episode 1 and Episode 2 are packed with info-heavy updates on Time-to-Kill/Time-to-Disable mechanics and capital-ship combat, making them a must-watch!
If you’re heading to the expo this year, don’t forget to bring your cameras to capture your IAE adventures for this year’s screenshot contest. You’ve got NINE chances to win and fly home in a new ship, so get to sharing!
Now, let’s see what’s going on this week:
