It's the PVD(or HoLD =Hammer of Loight Destroyer) Prophecy.
But I am certain there must be one more left. Maybe it is a Typhon, too.

[EDIT] Got it: SD Tantalus!

Name those ship names from FS1, which later became ship classes in FS2.

well, the first said to the player is "welcome to Vega Ensign".
So it is Vega really. And the intro is Great War era, not "current"
But you are right, it was just a cheap trick (question) so I'll let it slide !:cool:

This is also a bit of a trick question.

TopAce and Trashman combined got it.  But Trashman gave the wrong reason for the Lucifer: in the last mission, the kill for the Lucifer isn't credited to you because after you nuke the reactors it self-destructs.  However...

you can destroy the Lucifer in a FS1 campaign mission.  Name it.

[TopAce]

It's the 'Good Luck' mission. BUT:
But I suppose you found a bug, where the Lucifer doesn't have the invincible flag, and you are curious if we discovered it.

[EDIT]The Great Hunt
Otherwise, you do not stand a chance to destroy it, unless you are using cheats or hack the mission itself.

[Trivial Psychic]

"The Great Hunt" is an FS2 mission.

There's only 2 missions I can think of where the Lucifer stays around long enough to be vulnerable, but I don't know if the invincible flag has been left out in either case.  There's "Playing Judas" and the mission where you have to escort the scientists from the GTSC Rosetta in 2 Elysium class transports, and the Lucifer jumps in.  I can't remember the name of the second mission I mentioned, but in that case, if the invincible flag is missing, and you find a way to deal with all of the Scorpions and Basilisks its sends at you, and either knock out enough weapons to make a safe zone near the hull, or find a blind spot, then all you'd need to do is plug away for a half hour or so (at 4x time) and eventually, BOOM!

Later!

It was a FS1 mission first.

Yes.  Running the Gauntlet.  My roommate managed to destroy the Lucifer after a half-hour or so of pounding at it with a Valkyrie armed with Prometheuses and Phoenix V's.

But you cannot destroy it, it is invulnerable.
What's wrong with the Lucifer in the intro of FS2?

You can release your hair here, I am not curious for a single exact thing. Write whatever you think of it.

beams in the wrong places

[TopAce]

This is what I was actually thinking about.

The invulnerability tag was off... the mission designer forgot to set it.  That's what I was getting at, if you reread the discussion.

[StratComm]

And of course the port would be the ones to point that out

I mean the 'Running the Gauntlet' mission. It was invulnerable at me. In the 'The Great Hunt' mission, it was really set off.

Next question, anyone?

I'm sill waiting for anybody else to find the Eight major components of a subspace drive from the last thread

1. Beams in the wrong places--they come from the sides of the hull,. not the tips of the arms.
2. The red parts are too dark and don't glow
3. Its beams are too strong--it can't cripple an Orion with one hit.

[TopAce]

Please put up a question

[Woolie Wool]

On which ships can you see the occupants?

[TopAce]

I don't have a clue. Good question.

[SuperCoolAl]

nine?

On the Ra. One of the Vasudans is even mooning you

Name an NTF cruiser that was destroyed when the player wasn't present. Bonus points for naming them all
