Vanguard Galaxy is a chill and relaxing game. Not everyone's cup of tea, this chill and relaxing pace. Some players might like a bit more spice to the gameplay!

Here are a few self-imposed challenge runs to keep you occupied if you're having it too easy.

Challenges

"Fun!" Challenges to try at home.
Name	Rules	Notes	Favorite pastime of
Pushing the Envelope	At level 60, defeat a 102+ bounty/patrol for lvl 75 legendary item.	This will require learning about combat mechanics, how to min-max the ship builds, the differences between armor and shield-tanking, and the proper use of Firestarter vs. CC builds.	HalyconShade
All is Purple	Set everyone at war, paint Ara Martis in purple.	No docking at conquest stations, no farming Fleet Strength, this will take time.	Aurelia
Trucker: Dangerous	Only ever use transporters.	Oxlo, Vectura, Bremya, Trundar, Paktar, you will learn the true value of cargo space. Hull bonuses are for wussies.
Small Only	Never buy a size-3+ ship.	Very straightforward and enjoyable, flying small nimble ships and mowing down destroyers.	Zemurin
ECHO is stuck!	You can never buy another ship.	ECHO cannot be moved from your starting ship! Preferably a Raptor start, use creativity and imagination how to deal with Industrial Ops, base assaults and gear swapping. Get to end of Conquest and see how far you can push a Raptor (or a Chisel?).	Zemurin
Hardcore	No emergency jumps.	If you are defeated in combat, you are destroyed and have to start over a fresh run. Note: Devs did say hardcore options will be something to consider once the game is completed, so this type of gameplay is a stopgap measure until then, and an exercise in caution.	Velticus
