Not only is the X-Universe expanded in this game, but the number of NPC traders is expanded over Reunion. The TM is a freighter equipped to dock 4 (or 3) fighters for defense in addition to hauling a reasonably sized load across the X-Universe. The M8 represents a cheap way of taking down Capital ships and stations, which previously required an M2 and otherwise requires an M7 which, whilst still cheaper than an M2, is not cheap enough for early game players. The M7M is widely regarded as somewhat unbalanced, as it is a long range artillery unit with no real weaknesses and enormous offensive power. The M7 is a successful attempt to bridge the gap between the Corvette and Destroyer classes, providing a smaller and cheaper Capital-class ship. The M7 Frigate, M7M Missile Frigate, M8 Bomber and TM Military Transport are all new to this game. TC expands the repertoire of ships again with several new classes. Many maps exist, and can be found on the guides sticky in the Egosoft forums. Many are unlocked as progression through the various plotlines is achieved. There are more than 225 sectors in the TC X-Universe. The game is set in the aftermath of the reconnection of the Solar System with the jumpgate network, and its plotlines deal with the friction between Terrans and Commonwealth, the final defeat of the Kha'ak, the expansion of the Terrans back into some of their former colonies and other miscellaneous plots that provide the player with some interesting rewards. This Wiki is based on the gameplay of this Egosoft release at version v3.0.
