8 sleeper ships??
If you are stuck in a mission and do not know how to continue, this is the place to ask for help. Missing that elusive Level 10 Shield? Don''t know where to find the lost Ohtori ship? This is the only place where spoilers are allowed!
Got an idea here....
It says that the alliance got the upper hand after all that time. It also says that the sirus system was the only known system that could support human life. Therefore is it possible that after the coalition launched sleeper ships that the alliance launched sleeper ships to follow after them? It could be possible that they never made it e.t.c.

Ok.. It's Because The Nomads Distroyed The Coliition While They Distroy The Sol (What Ever That Is)
I Think One Of The Cloaking Sleeper Ships Was The Nomads But Before They Headed To The Sirus System They Distroyed The Sol Thing..., System... And Then The Nomads Cloaked Again to Go To Sirus And Then No One Will Know About THe Nomads And Then They Wanted To Rule The UNIVERSE!!!!!!!

1. This thread has been discussed to death and back MANY times. If it gets necro-ed again, it is likely to implode.
2. Zeta, please do not capitalize the first letter of every word...it makes your posts exceptionally difficult to read. Capitals are for the first letter of a sentence, and for proper nouns...not for every little adjective, verb, and adverb in between.
3. The intro with the nomads blowing up Sol is not official material. As far as the game is concerned, that never happened.
4. There are 5 sleeper ships.

No that MOViE you saw did happen, just wasn't released in the U.S version.

Just becuase it was the 'beta' work, doesn't mean it was thrown away.
If they did show that in the final release, then there wouldn't be a point of playing the story becuase you know who you are going to fight in the frist place. THE NOMADS.
There are 8, three got destoryed in marjor battles,/
You can say that it never happen, but since it's there, I say it blends the story together.

And not only are we still waiting to hear which nations would have sponsored the "other three," but we've also still got nothing whatsoever to explain the other discrepancies with the story which are raised in the infamous bar rumor. That is, by the way, STILL the only evidence anybody has been able to produce concerning the existence of additional ships...and it is STILL a drunken rumor. The launch site is wrong, the name of the faction that launched them is wrong, therefore the number of ships is wrong as well. It is very probable that "The Rumor" was left over from an earlier version of the story, and simply was not part of the final version.
And the original intro is not part of the story. The intro which shipped with the game is the official one, and is therefore canon while the clip it replaced is NOT.

All i'm going to say s that i will follow what the intro movie says, that there were five sleeper ships, and at one point it gives you a whole view of the launch bay andhave a gues how many there are in it......
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!5!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
One mans Terrorist is another mans Freedom Fighter

I was just thinking (I never played Starlancer so I don't know the whole story)
Why would't the this Coalition (China and Russia) build thier own sleeper ships?
Maybe they just went after the others(Liberty, Kusary, etc) and ended up in a place other than Sirius Sector.
(Sorry if my theory is stupid, but like I said)

*It could be part of the story that was never released and has no meaning.
*It could be part of the story left out so it was a suprise to fight the nomads and then FL2 sequel follows up (travel back to sol to learn about there past and bump into the missing ones)
*It could be a design on purpose to illustrate real life where ppl are constantly debating about what happend in the past, we still 'guess' (admittingly educated guesses) on what happened to dino's (why did they all die?) or how man evolved.
I'd like to guess that one of the ships was Jamaca (The Rasta Sleeper?) and in FL 2 where these debates have gone on for so long the nations decide to work together and retrace there steps back to sol to seek the altamate answer of 'was it distroyed?' and if so what happened. On there way back they bump into the Rasta Sleeper with smoke billowing out of it, they board and ....story happens.... [end of story back in siruis as the trip back never happened and it was just them being to high to relaise there own immagenation
Still.... if a few of the mod making ppl would like a challange then i offer you this one.
Make a story line for each theory and see which one has the best story line then choose that one
(-.-"

I read somewhere something like this:
When FOUR sleeper ships (Liberty, Bretonia, Rheinland and Kusari) got trough the Coallition blocade and launched to Sirius sector, a strange (probably Nomad) battleship appeared out of nowhere and destroyed the sun. After that Alliance launched 5th sleeper ship (Hispania), that headed to Serius sector.

Nope.
The Alliance launched 5 sleeper ships at the same time; the Hispania was damaged as the five ships ran the Coalition blockade around Europa and thus arrived in Sirius after the four Houses Major were already established. No further ships were built or launched.
The "Nomads destroy the Sun" bit was dropped from the final cut, and is therefore not part of the official story.

Look at it from a writer's point of view. You have a lot of threads in a story, as you build it, and when you revise and perfect it you do your best to comb them out, but in the end there's going to be something you didn't consider, so it's never going to be a perfectly neat package.
The writer will always refer to something that he later revises away, and forgots to delete the bad reference. Maybe there's an off implication, like van Pelt fondly recalling the time long before the GMG (mission 4), a guild which elsewhere (mission 5) Juni mentions had once been in an 80-year-war with Rheinland: two great storylines in themselves, but obviously contradictory, unless van Pelt is a couple hundred years old. Elsewhere there's a tiny off-number, like a five for an eight.
The great writer/director Alfred Hitchcock once wrote that there's always going to be a lapse of consistency, and that he didn't mind unless it interfered with watching the movie. You can always pick holes afterwards, in analysis: the true measure is if it hangs together while you're initially enjoying it, without destroying your sense of pleasure. Obviously the comparison breaks down, but the idea is similar: of course there's lapses in consistency, and hopefully they aren't too obtrusive.
