Elite-Games.ru is a pretty neat looking Russian website devoted to space combat trading sims similar to Elite or Privateer. They highlight a couple dozen major games in the genre, including Privateers 1 & 2. If you don't speak Russian and would still like to check it out, head on over to the Babelfish, plug in the URL and select the appropriate languages. The site's Privateer 1 features include general information on the game, commodity tables and some fairly well done character bios. The intro story with the Scarab has also been translated to Russian. Privateer 2's history has also been translated, along with ship details and recommended trade routes. Their Privateer 1 nav map also has the common Pollux/War jump tunnel mix-up that we mentioned on Saturday.
