I have a whole bunch of really good news. The first is that the Epic Team is planning to release another mod called Torn Stars: Unstable Space in Q1 of 2006.

Unstable Space expands the features of the Middle States by adding new unstable smuggler jump routes. These routes are piloted as a 3D Newtonian racing simulation. A bad run on some of these routes can rip up or destroy your ship (or worse, your high value cargo).

* Unstable Space adds News coverage. Learn more about the politics and factions from an in-ship News Browser. Significant combat events and politics are covered. Monthly periodicals like “Cluster Geographic� explore the Middle States in detail.

* Player wingmen features will now include fuel tanks and fuel usage. Budget wisely or end up “on the drift�.

* New star systems give you places to explore. The unstable jump routes and fuel limits make exploration a hazardous and uncertain occupation.

* Prospecting asteroids and setting up mining bases is the reason for exploration. Mining bases are high in capital costs but very profitable. Of course, you need to beat the competition to the best strikes.

The next great piece of news is that we have a new web site!

www.torn-stars.com The site is packed with screen shots and project information.

And www.i-war2.com is hosting a new forum section for us here. Please visit to discuss the mods, suggest cool new features, and report bugs and problems.

Which brings us to the third announcement!

Epic is changing names to Torn Stars. We love the name Epic, but it appears everywhere. We needed a new name for the web site and Torn Stars reflects the war ravaged nature of the Middle States.

Torn Stars,
Life on the Edge of Chaos.
