Did you like the Hades?

Personally I think that the ruled! I hated destroying it though took me all night. The texturing is sub-par but the color is cool. The Hades could go toe to toe with a Lucifer and come out smiling. Find me another Terran destroyer that could do that.
   I just don't get why the didn't make some new Hades destoryers.

The Hades wasn't nearly as cool or deadly as it could have been.  With some serious modifications, then yes, it would be.  Bob's skin, if it's still out there, made it look deadly and just plain Shivan.  There's also a special beam out there specially-made for the Hades, but I seem to have lost it.

Of course, you'll love it even more when------< ffzzztt>Rebell--< czztttt>---leased----< czzztt> :D

I love it, and it is going to be central to my campaign - when I get started on that

Well...
The Hades gets disabled very quickly!
In almost every mission I made with it, it is the first ship, that gets disabled...

Which is why, if you want a real badass Hades, make out without an engine subsystem.  The Lucifer didn't have one, did it? :p

:lol:

meh, the problem is the :v: developers put too much hitpoints on the Hades' main hull instead of distributing them equally across the Hades' hull and subsystems. kinda weird tho, they did with the other ships. or is that just me?

Hades is a wierd design...and somewhat unfunction I might add..

Allmost all the turrets are one the top of those wing/tower thingies...a fighter/bomber can fly between the main hull and them without problem.

Lucky for us, the Hades in my card game doesn't have those fatal flaws.  I hope to have a permanent hosting here soon.

The only thing I really liked about the Hades were those little angles between the engines and their support struts where I could hide my Ursa, avoid the enemy Lokis, rubber-band my trigger, turn on time compression, and leave FS to run for the next half-hour. :p

Don't count on it.  HLP is filled-up in terms of hosting, though if you try GTD Bastion, I'm sure Hippo will set you up with a forum and some webspace (at least ~50 megs). ;)

Which is why the Hades in ST needed to have waypoints.  It would've made it a hell of a lot tougher to kill, seeing as how you couldn't just sit in the struts and shoot it up (well, without matching the Hades' speed and turning whenever it did).

Since this isn't an actual campaign he actually stands a chance. HLP isn't full in terms of space. They stopped accepting new campaigns in the hope that it meant the old ones would get finished.

I hated that mission, it took so long that I managed to get about forty kills before the Hades was destroyed.
