History
The Banshee are a long lost race of peaceful traders who have returned and are
still unsure of who to trust and who to avoid. Early on you will be treated as
a foe by them and you should avoid their ships until your offered a chance to
up your rank with them.
You can go about your business and simply ignore them if you like, they will
not target you unless you have done something to deserve it.
More on this race can be found on the BBS, the only thing you need to know is
that your actions will always bring a reaction, good or bad.
Current Intelligence
Current Intelligence is very limited and at best sporadic. Some traders report that they are extremely generous in trading whilst our combat pilots report back stating feelings of mistrust. Further to this the Banshee have pretty much closed any access to the sector they first arrived in although they have stated that this is down to their fear of being attacked again.
What we really need is a good pilot who can covertly gain intelligence on them and report it back.
Upgrade Commands
Swap Console
Typing 'swap console' into your ships interface will allow you to switch your full Banshee Interface (If Purchased/Stolen) between the chosen ships. Just target the ships it is currently installed on and the database will upgrade and link your ship up with it.

Help1

Hail
If your unfortunate enough to get on the wrong side of a Banshee ship you can hail the ship and for the small fee of 1000cr your transponder will call off the attack. You must remember that this command will only work when your rank is of a positive nature with the Banshee.
To access the hail command type "hail"
Rank
Typing "rank" will return your current Banshee rank to your logbook
Piracy
A command for true pirates. Typing "piracy" into the chosen fighters Banshee Interface will allow it to plunder a sectors trade ships without any retribution for your ship or your rank with the ships race.
Very little is known about what this command can do as only high ranking Banshee pilots are rumored to be able to access it.
Sell Ore
Typing "sell ore" will launch the TS Class ship that is docked on your TL and will then jump and sell any ore or silicon that is stocked on the TL.
A very handy and profitable command for Mobile Mining.
Mine Silicon

The speed of profit when run in conjunction with other commands more than pays for the Hornet Missiles that are used.

Ships do not need a TL and will collect any ware in the sector but used in Conjunction with a TL will allow the ship to unload and carry on scavenging.
type 'collect'
Capture
Another command only for use by Banshee combat veterans.
Typing "capture" allows you to sit back and let your ship do all the dirty work. All you have to do is choose the target.

type 'inhibit'
Enable Missions
If your ships computer gets scrambles and no missions seem to be on offer typing 'enable missions' into the BIF will fix this problem
Docking with Banshee Stations
If your rank is at Banshee Demon you can dock at any banshee station by typing 'dock' and targeting the station. This will allow you to trade with the Banshee and as a tip its good to run the 'hackbanshee' command first just to make sure there are no ships gunning for you when you enter their sectors.
Buy Energy
This command can be run on any of your TS Class ships if they are docked on one of your TL Class ships. The ship will load energy from the TL and jump to buy as much energy at a low price as it can get. It will then jump back and stock the TL with energy. This command will also work for your transports that are working for one of your stations if you need a lot of energy in an emergency. - Jumpdrive required -
All you need to do is type 'buy energy' into the banshee interface of the TS Class ship you want to run it on.
Buy Mass Driver Ammunition
