Version history.
First release 07/26/96
Utopia:
Creates 2 new governments: the Utopian government and the Z Pirate Government
Creates 4 new systems with several planets. Most important is the Degoba System, located one jump from Privateer's Haven.
Creates 5 new ships
Creates 2 new weapons
Creates several new personalities
Creates six new missions
Later versions will include lots of new stuff but I am waiting on version 1.0.3 of EV so that (Hopefully) I can get the elusive VisBit to actually do what it is supposed to. When this occurs, there will be lots more new missions, systems, governments, ships and weapons. I will also be making Utopia Stormbringer compatible in future releases, so stay tuned. I also plan to do a much improved Readme.
