    St0rm.Net would like to invite its members to the Freelancer Server which has recently been set up.

    Freelancer is a Space RPG game where you start off in a small spaceship and in order to progress you need to do missions, become a pirate, go mining or transport goods to and from different planets and solar systems.
    Once you earn enough money, buy yourself a bigger, better ship and dominate space.

    There are different factions which you can also join. Get your friends to join the same faction as you and you can rule space together.

    The server is currently using the Discovery Mod which adds a lot of new features to the game such as ships and missions.
    Custom content will also be added to the server in the near future.

    A couple of useful links are found below which you should read if you are interested in the game:

    I hope to see more players ingame soon!

    Greetings.


    As some of you may have noticed, this morning all st0rm hosted provisions were offline. The reason for this downtime, though not our fault, was due to maintenance being preformed by our current data center.

    All network assets are back online and we apologies for any inconvenience this may have caused; thank you for your patience.

    Hello all.

    Dorest0rm and I are very pleased to announce that the official St0rm.Net Build Server for Garrys Mod is up and running.

    The server has ZERO addons installed at the moment but I will be sorting this out tomorrow. The server is 95% configured (a few tweaks needed here and there) but it is 100% playable.

    So whether you feel like building a house, base, zombie bunker or just a general mess, come in and join us!
    Just search for 'St0rm.Net BUILD SERVER' in the server list and you're good to go.

    I will be setting up a new forum section along with sub-sections tomorrow also.

    Dore and I will be looking for a few game admins in the near future to help maintain the server so keep your eyes open for the lastest Garrys Mod news and information.

    Happy Building!
