HOMEWORLD 2!

This is where you can discuss your homework, family, just about anything, make strange sounds and otherwise discuss things which are really not related to the Lancer-series. Yes that means you can discuss other games.

Looks great, I hope Relic hasn't lost too much of their magic after the failure of Impossible Creatures.

GE, basicvally all it amounts to is being able to survive until the Bentusi make a timely intervention and give you Super-Acolyte technology. Superacolytes are basically acolytes except their primary wepaon is two ion cannons, they can be EXTREMELY deadly if you get a squadron of twelve together. 2 squadrons of twelve and you pretty much have the equivalent of 24 ion cannon frigates moving around at the speed of an interceptor!

You also want to have two princiapl strike groups, with one Dreadnaught at the head of each group. Leave a third smaller task force comprised of (defenders I think, or whatever unit gives you the ability to form a protective shield around a friendly unit) and a fighter screen to look after the Kuun-Lan. The two principal strike groups should each concentrate on the Nomad Moon's protective orbs that are above and below it, once the repulsor orbs are gone, concentrate on the moon itself. Ignore the Imperialist Taidanii fleet that goes steam rolling toward the Kuun-Lan, your defenses should be able to hold out long enough for you to take out the moon. When the moon is gone, the Taidanii will retreat...Then you have one FINAL challenge that I won't spoil, I'm surer you can get it on your own. If you can get far enough to destroy the Nomad Moon you'll be quite capable of dealing with the final threat. One hint: Massive all out assault with every piece of hardware you can muster, don't hold back.

ive heard that you can destroy the second taidani fleet by blowing up the purple crystals when they fly into them is this possible? but anyway i know how to beat it but every time i am just about to i get i new game and forget all about Cataclysm, (the one downside to that game is the tactical officer's voice is really annoying) and its in down times like these that i get the urge to beat it

When is it due out ?

And the last misison of cataclysm is pretty easy if you took all the money in all the misisons before.
