The Colossus was the biggest piece of space-sh*t ever made.

  • It looked stupid. Like a raygun.
  • It was a waste of materials, that, during the recession the GTVA went through, could have been used forcountless other projects. (Don't give me the whole 'By building the colossus, many companies stayed alive and provided jobs bullcrap)
  • It was poorly concieved.

Hijacking this thread is not an option in my list of intentions. Do you mind discussing this Colossus thingy with me on ICQ? :).

If you guys can get all these, that would be pretty cool. They're pretty easy though, so you've got to get all of them. ;)

the mission were:
the guy ramms the colosus
Bosch runs the blockade and goes into the nebula
"the great hunt"
that transport dockes with that ship
the Aquiteen nearly gets it's ass handed to it by a vesle barely classified as a corvette
3rd fleet HQ get's blown up
same mission, Mesana leaveing the area
the Bastion,  nuff said

*Corrects Bobbau's answers and poor spelling* ;)


1. Feint! Parry! Reposte! Koth's Repulse rams the GTVA Colossus
2. Endgame - Bosh jumps in, runs the GTVA blockade in Gamma Draconis and enters the nebula
3. Strait, No Chaser - Sathanas fires at Psamtik
4. As Lightning Fall - Rescue team boards the NTF carrier Grall to rescue snipes
5. Argonautica - Rescue team repairs the Aquataine
6. Dunkerque - 3rd Fleet Headquaters self-destructs
7. Dunkerque - the GTD Massana jums out
8. Clash of the Titans II - Bastion jumps out.

Are you sure about #4? Cause that looks like a big capital ship in the bottom portion. Probably a Hecate, now that I take a second and third look.

You're wrong on No.3 Bob, that I know for certain.  I can see that the pilot is flying a Tauret, which would make is "Monster In The Mist", not "The Great Hunt".  I'd also submit that Nos. 4 and 5 are both the same mission, when the Aquataine is disalbed near the Gamma Draconis jump node.  You can see that the pilot is flying a Tauret in both of them, and since the Aqu only makes one appearance in the Vasudan segment of the campaign, then that's it.  I'd wager that you're right on all the others though.

[Edit]  Dam! I forgot to check the posts on the next page.  Sorry guys.  I still say that No.3 is "Monster In The Mist", since there are 2 friendly ships in the escort list, and if it was the one where the Psamtik gets waxed, there would only be that, and possibly the Sath, though it'd be in red.[/Edit]

Later!

You may need to utilize a special fighting technique to see the Sathanas from that angle in the mission when the Psamptik dies.

Cowardice? ;)

:thepimp:

On a side note, if someone can correctly name the missions all 45 of these are from (or get the ones that I can remember right :p) they get a free feature-implementation of their choice...within reasonable limits.

Edit: It'd help if I included the URL
