This does not work with the regular versions of Oolite (it uses [[TAF]]) - needing either a developer/test release or a "nightly". Installing the drive now requires visiting a non-main station in a high-level Anarchy.
-:And [[File:Thargoid Witchspace Drive 0.9.5 2024 beta.oxz]] for his previous which needs Oolite v.1.80 or better.

+The Goid's Head is a sleazy little bar on the lowest deck of [[Sector1/Riedquat|Riedquat]] station. The Lethal Brandy is unusually lethal, and it's hard to see for the clouds of exhaled Megaweed vapour drifting quietly around the dank atmosphere. But it's a good place to hear some of the more interesting tall tales from the less salubrious corners of the eight.
 As you walk in, scanning the motley assortment of humans and rodents who tend to call the establishment home you spot a grizzled old human gesticulating wildly and talking with a level of animation unusual for the venue and its generally heavily 'medicated' clientele. He looks worn out with a tangled grey beard, long greasy hair and a wild look to his eyes that suggests far too many years alone in the spacelanes and far too little sleep. His fore-arms are heavily scarred with old Trumble bite marks.

 You take a seat nearby, nursing a watered down brandy and start to play 'Angry Thargoids' on your ooPad, while listening surreptitiously to the old man.
-"I tell you these things exist, I've had two. Thargoid Witchspace Drives are the real deal, a spacer's dream. I've crossed each chart many times in a single extended jump, crossed the Great Rift a dozen times and even got to Oresrati. They are fast too, for a lot of routes it beats the official records set by the witchspace relay racers using Quirium Drives."
