One of my favorite missions in Homeworld (two missions actually, the Garden and the Cathedral).
This is mainly the result of me figuring out how to make a decent explosion effect (that strange lava lamp thing was another result)...
Anyway, if you played the missions you'll understand the caption at the bottom...

Is the backround supposed to be so red? I've never played Homeworld so I wouldn't know. I think the engine glows are really good and the beams are well done too!

It isn't that useful, but I consider the Drone and Field to be equal, in a sense. Except the Drone Frigate shoots back.. (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/rolleyes.gif)
And, of course, the Homeworld campaign was intended to be played as the Kushan.

Now then, don't underestimate the power of the Dark..er, Drone Frigate.

Only four? I salvaged them ALL! No need for anti fighter defences any more (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/smile.gif)
Oh, and yes, the render is nice. (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/biggrin.gif) That's an Hatsepsut on the left?

Three bems, or four, but never sixteen. The Mothership would be very screwed if it was sixteen. And the fact that it always rams one or two of my frigates while turning around is annoying.

Alright then..
The Great Nebula, its a massive, resource rich nebula that you have to travel through while trying to reach Hiigara. As you find out, its home to some very.. strange.. people. One you first come into contact with them, their representative says "Welcome to The Garden of Kadesh.." and they then proceed to kick your *** ...

that looks kind of like a screwed up TIE fighter...anybody else see that? like, four wings that have been placed wrongly and a slightly different cockpit.
What's it actually supposed to be?

It's an Ion Frigate, iirc.

The Arrays on either side of it are supposed to amplify the ion beam...
The fold up close to the hull when not in use...
