Mekhu HL-7?

It is the Mekhu, all right, but that's a trick question.  As a terran fighter, it should not be able to carry a weapon modified to work optimally with Vasudan power grids.  No Terran ship is supposed to use the Mekhu, and no Vasudan fighter is supposed to use the Subach.

Close enough; it's the control config screen. :D

For the next question, I am also pretty sure it's the Mekhu HL-7 from a purely technical point of view.

I have done the test, the Erinyes can carry any unique weapon (thus excluding dogfight variants) except the Mekhu.  So, it's Shiva Archon's ball.

But until he posts that, what hull strength must the Bastion maintain in Clash of the Titans (FS1) in order for the mission to be a success?

1% :p

For it to be a complete success, the hull should be above 35%.  But that's a secondary objective. :)

Someone finish answering my question! :mad2: :)

I'll guess the Prophecy, though I couldn't actually find where it was destroyed.  It's assumed at the end of the next to last mission.  As for clash of the titans, you do fail the mission if the bastion gets too weak, and it isn't 1%.  Of course, the Demon tends to blow up just as the Bastion is broadsiding it, so for me if the Bastion isn't over 35% she is dead from the explosion and collision with debris.  Not that it would matter, it doesn't actually play a part in the remaining missions.

what HOL destroyer was destroyed twice?

i'd say probably the Anvil?  perhaps?  cause it was destroyed in single and multiplayer :)

Yes, the Anvil. :nod:

I don't know about multiplayer, but you can destroy it in two singleplayer missions: 2-4 and 3-6 (sorry, don't have the names at the moment).

EDIT: Where Eagles Dare and Black Omega. :)

Ask a question.

Or just tell me what is the difference of the break-warp and never-warp events.

oooh... that's how this thing works!  i thought there was only one person asking a question and everyone tries to answer it... give me a few minutes to think of a question


EDIT:  To answer your question Stunaep:

Break-warp stops you from exiting subspace, but that can be fixed with a Support Ship.
Never-warp can be altered only by Allow-warp

OK, i'm joining the trivia after answering the previous question:


  • What are the two modes of subspace travel,
  • What are the differences between them, and
  • Who invented them?
[/b]

good luck answering... ;)

The two types and differences:
Inter-system jump- between star systems
Intra-system jump- within a starsystem

Who invented them - Prof. Whiteside.
'Honour the valiant who fall beneath your sword, but pity the warrior who slays all his foes' - G'trok, in the poem lu geng

'Clarification is not to make oneself clear, it is to put oneself in the clear.' - Sir Humphrey Appleby

Why not visit the Time of Change website?

Or perhaps my own website - Telencephalon

well, im not one to leave people guessing (well maybe)

Here are the answers to mine:

1. GTD Bastion
    GTD Galatea
    GTD Carthage
    GTD Messana
    GTD Delacroix (guess)
    NTD Jacobus
    NTD Andronicus
    NTD Vasa
    NTD Uhuru
    NTD Cyrene
    NTD Vindicator

2. The GTD Phoenicia (Sathanas either wastes it or it jumps out due to low hull integrity)

3. 1st Wave: Four frieghters, one gas mine, and a transport. Protected by the GVC Ptah-Nu and the GTCv Lemnos
    2nd Wave: A science vessel and two medical ships. The GTC Zollner was assigned to escort them. Several freighters came in later.
    3rd: Two medical ships and four troop transports. The GTC Sparta covered them.

4. The GTC Malta, Ertanax, and Templar

5. I don't even want to go there.... lets just say CP named em

6. False. The 107th was never introduced as a Great-War era squadron.

7. Vega (if you survive)

8. (made a mess up here) Akheton Corp, Subach Imes, Mekhu Enterprises all have weapons named after them. Triton Dynamics has the GTFr Triton carrying its name.

9. The first Hatshepsut was released in 2360, boasting the newest beam weaponry.

10. In 2335, on the 10th anniversary of the Shivan attack on Ross 128, the Vasudan Emperor Khonsu II addressed the GTVA General Assembly. The Emperor inaugurated an ambitious and unprecedented joint endeavor: the GTVA Colossus.

11. False. The Great War barely lasted 8-9 months.

12. The T-V War began in 2323.

13. True.

14. Beam weapons were specifically designed to destroy the Lucifer.

15. The 2nd Sathanas.
      "Command, we are detecting an incoming jump signature through the subspace portal."
      "What is it, Psamtik? Can you identify?"
      "Affirmative. Sathanas configuration. Repeat, Sathanas configuration!"
      "That's impossible, Psamtik!"
      "The Sathanas has opened fire! We are sustaining massive hull damage!"
      "Psamtik, get out of there, NOW! We're pulling you out!"
      "Jump drive inoperative! All systems comprimised! Catastrophic hull failure imminent!"
      "Psamtik, do you copy? Come in Psamtik! This is Allied Command, do you read me? (just how we like to hear Command, poor and helpless :D )"
Spoon - I stand in awe by your flawless fredding. Truely, never before have I witnessed such magnificant display of beamz.
Axem -  I don't know what I'll do with my life now. Maybe I'll become a Nun, or take up Macrame. But where ever I go... I will remember you!
Axem - Sorry to post again when I said I was leaving for good, but something was nagging me. I don't want to say it in a way that shames the campaign but I think we can all agree it is actually.. incomplete. It is missing... Voice Acting.
Quanto - I for one would love to lend my beautiful singing voice into this wholesome project.
Nuclear1 - I want a duet.
AndrewofDoom - Make it a trio!
