Title: capships that died in Capella during the Shivan invasion
Post by: KappaWing on November 03, 2008, 06:14:07 pm
Can you guys help me make a definitive list of capships that for sure died in Capella during the Shivan invasion?

Terran, Vasudan, AND Shivan.

I can remember two:

SD Beast
GTVA Colossus

Caps are considered cruiser class and above.

It's called the GTC Vigilant.

No capital ships died in Capella during the Shivan Invasion. Capital ships are not living things. (Well, at least, T-V ships aren't.)

From Retail:
GTC Stalwart on higher difficulty levels

Also sometimes the GVC Heket and the GVCv Khepri (although only if you're not doing much and you let the SC Hela run rampant).

Yeah, but usually, it's the Stalwart that gets its reactor handed to it first.

The BAstion died on "hte other side of the fence" right? Otherwise i'd give it a plaque :yes:

Actually, I felt that the Bastion died "sitting on the fence". It blew up while stalled in a subspace vortex, remember?

It's called the GTC Vigilant.


That was Gamma Draconis, right outside the Knossos, IIRC.

No - Vigilant was patrolling near the G-Drax node in Capella. The Rahshasa jumped into the system and wasted it

That was the GTCv Monitor. And it doesn't die. Unless you mess up Endgame royally. It never gets attacked by a Shivan.

The Hela thrashes the Khepri first...at least when I played through (it nearly died, if it was on a higher difficulty it would have bitten the dust).

And capships do die. :nod: Not just figuratively. Well, the people on them do, but they're technically a part of the ship.

No it wasn't.

To the officers and crew of the GTD Aquitaine, this is Admiral Petrarch. At 0115 hours, we received a transmission from 3rd Fleet Headquarters. A Shivan cruiser and three fighter wings ambushed and destroyed the GTC Vigilant as it patrolled the Gamma Draconis jump node in the Capella system.

Whoops, that was a typo on my part. Muh bad.

Also, kara, I think Galemp was referring to the ship in the mission where you defend the Knossos from the NTF as they try to run the so-called blockade.
