Even if it has been done before I couldn't really care less :p It's my campaign... MINE! ALL MINE!

*cough*

Did I say that out loud?

Anywayz, I am going to try to make the GTVA actually make some smart "tactical" moves. At least not as dumb as sending the Collosus to face the sathanas by itsself.

Ok, please no more spamming here. I want to keep this thread for my campaign.

Ow, and stunaep, depending on how you mean "get erected", do it [size=20]SOMEWHERE ELSE![/size].

on-topic now:

how is the GTVA going to get a fleet capable of countering the Shivan Swarm, after the Capella incident? I mean, they lost entire fleets (most of the 3rd fleet, the 9th fleet, the 6th, 7th and 8th fleets, and god knows how much Vasudan battlegroups).

Is a new resourceful system, or whatever you call them, in order?

12 years knowing that they can come back can have a great effect on the effectiveness of your researchers and engeneers. Many resources were used for military rebuilding.

Fear can be a good thing :D

As for the resources, strip mining uninhabitable planets is a good way to go.

well, you couldn't exactly say losing all ties to Earth, and completely losing a species' homeworld wouldn't be activating. Yet it still took them 20 years to complete the Colossus.

Also wouldn't such overclocked (in lack of a better word) building ruin the societies of the Terran/Vasudan races to a feudalistic level?

I didn't say the general populous would be happy. You will see my friend, you will see.

As for the collosus... screw it, it sucked arse. Even a deimos could kill it.

Ooh, I gotta look up that thread by Carl, about why the Colossus was useful. I had some pretty interesting ideas a while ago, but no point in rederailing the thread.

Could we expect a public uprising later in the campaign?

*has great campaign idea*

*opens up notepad*

Heh, only time will tell... Well actually my campaign will but meh...

My campaign won't be a simple attack and destroy / defend campaign.

As for the colossus, i'd prefer a Deimos over a Collosus any day. Much more manouverable, far less expensive, building time is like 4 times as short. Firepower is heavy as hell for its size.

Aldo, the Capella thingy might be somewhat like my history, but the colony wars won't be here. Though unrest and small fights will be there.

Also in my campaign they are nowhere near the technology of a knossos. IMO its a piece of technology far too complex for the human/vasudan society to build.

But you will see, the results of my history will be in part 2. :D I'm liking this.

UPDATE:

Here are some screenies from the first mission

Right click, save as

You can view it in a browser but its ugly unless you make the window smaller. I still recommend saving it to your HD :)

Names of the screenies:

The top one: "In your face!"
Second one: "Pummeling a Cain"
Third one: "Bombin' da Demon"
