Fugitives From Fate is a permacorp (permanent corporation) dedicated to the study and play of the telnet based internet RPG known as TradeWars 2002, by Epic Interactive Strategy.
TradeWars is a text based RPG, set in outer space. Players, who organize into cooperative teams known as corps, use a variety of ships to travel through the universe. In order to survive to conquer the other teams, corps must make money by trading or stealing from ports. To provide a safe location for themselves, corps make and colonize planets. By upgrading the planet's citadel, corps can turn their planets into a fierce fighting machines. By deploying fighters, corps can prevent other corps from traveling freely through the universe, and can locate other players as they travel. Players can use their fighter force to engage in real-time battles against other players and their bases. The game ends when one corp destroys all the others and emerges victorious.
Our members include some of the top TradeWars players. Many of our members formerly belonged to The GoodGuys, a permacorp that won the 2001 USO (United States Open) tournament, the 2001 WTC (World TradeWars Championship) tournament, and the 2002 WTC tournament. Although the legacy of The GoodGuys has ended, some of its players have reorganized themselves into the Fugitives From Fate corporation for the 2003 USO tournament. For a full listing of all Fugitives From Fate members, past and present, as well as member pics and bios, check out our corporate roster.
Our players use superior helper technology for playing TradeWars. Included in our fearsome repertoire are the ZOC telnet client, the TWX helper, and the TWScripter helper (for the MacOS). However, our script collection is by far a secondary concern compared to our knowledge of the game. Each player is expected to have thorough knowledge of moneymaking, base building, and combat techniques.
The Daily Log section of our website will be updated frequently with our most recent achievements. In it we will document our most recent corporate games.
