Its a moderated game that has no set objectives or goals save what the players & player run groups generate for themselves, everyone in the GTT seems very friendly so far, i received half a dozen welcome messages from faction members before i was aware my application had been accepted.

Nice one Ice. I look forward to seeing you in the Capellan Periphery.

As well as my original Courier Class Freighter the GTT Tamar Trader the GTT have given me command of 3 other ships as part of their logistic's network supporting the anti-piracy base building program. They are the GTT Skye Ranger a Barge Class Freighter, the GTT Hanse Davion a Fox Class Freighter and the GTT Blood Spirit a Gothic Hauler Class Frieghter.
