here's why I like the EA stuff the most:

1. I made most of their capital weapons :D
2. Everybody loves to speculate about Sol
3. Most of the ships are by Aldo. A good thing
4. The textures are really really good
5. There's just that earth mystique

Oh, and don't neglect the Vasudans. Their fleet has been growing steadily lately

Their fleet is basically done now :)
GTVA Terrans are next most complete.

The Terrans have some of the better ships in the campaign including two of my favourites, the Phobos and Boreas. Of course there is the other race ;)
though their ships aren't that good at the moment compared to the rest :)

Post by: razor_blade on February 19, 2002, 03:47:48 pm
Vasudans RULE!!!

Why?
Here is why:

1.

The Vasudans are a civilization of philosophers, ARTISTS, and SCHOLARS. They immerse themselves in the teachings of those who came before them

2.

They have ships that are much better than Terran or Shivan. Compare the Hatshepsut, Hecate and the Ravana

3.

They are NOT agressive. The reason for the T-V war is the missunderstanding between Terrans and Vasudans.

4.

They went into space to search for planets not to destroy or conquer.

5.

They will rather fight and die than to retreat. They seek vengence if one of theirs is killed. When we are defeated, we scram and run for our lives.

6. They have better technology than the Terrans: For instance in the Vasudan main hall you have a holographic display for Campaigns instead of just a screen. Advanced fighters. The Horus was faster than the Valkyrie. Advanced Bombers. Bakha is far better tahn any other bomber in Terran fleet. tHat is why it was chosen to attack the SJ in Gamma Drac and Capella

How many other reasons do you want?

The Ancients are the strongest of the factions. They have powerful weaponary and excellent ships. Though they lack shields their superior hulls make up for it.

The Shivans shouldn't be underestimated. They are still the big threat with ships like the Gorgon, Diablo, Iblis and Gigas.

The Terrans have better ships than normal. Capships like the Boreas are used for heavy assault while vessels like the Hecate 2 are used for general purpose.

The SOC are the specialised fleet. They have some of the best technology and get ships like the Banshee faster than the standard GTVA pilots. The Olemus is their flagship and the strongest Terran ship in the campaign except for the Apocalypse.

The Vasudans have strong and powerful ships. However they lack the speed of their Terran counterparts. Ships like the Apothess give them an advantage.

The EA are an average group. Most of their ships are generalsed. They win through superior skill rather than superior technology.
