Forklift
To get the forklift option (a nuclear bomb), click on the
Escape Velocity symbol on the top of the menu. While
the words are scrolling hold down Option + Apple +
Shift + Ctrl-F until you hear the forklift song. Now the
current pilot has a forklift wich can be found in the
secondary weapons list!

Free Fighters
Buy two or more fighter bays. Launch all your fighters,
then order them to return. When one has returned, tell
them to stop. Then launch the fighter that is in your
ship. You will recieve more fighters depending on how
many bays you have.

Particle Beam of Death
When you are tired of being killed by bounty hunters or
pirates, fly and and on a planet that sells weapons for
your ship. On some planets, they will sell you a weapon
that has no picture or ame. I seems like they are rying to
rip you off because you've no idea what it is. Buy it.
When you eave the planet go through your secondary
list and look for "Paritcle Beam." When you find it,
target a ship and get it on your big screen (not
scanners), then use it. The "Particle Beam of Death" is
about as thick as a shuttle and locks on automatically.
This is as powerful as a forklift except on Confed
Cruiser; to defeat a Confed Cruiser with it just let it
unload until it completely runs out. The good thing is
that it doesn't use any shields OR fuel to be used.
Unfortunately it still won't kill Captain Hector.

Ultimate Neutron Blaster
Buy a neutron blaster, leave the planet, press "w" then
land and sell the neutron blaster. When you take off
you will still have the neutron blaster, but it will be much
more powerful!
