:wtf: Looks like you're having more math trouble. ;) The T-V war began in 2321.  2335 - 14 = 2321. :nod:

Since no one has asked a question, tell me the name of the GTI transport that captures the Rasputin in FS1

It's either the GTT Spomer (something like that) the GTT Comet. I think it's the first, the second being the one that picks up the capured Dragon in 'Enter the Dragon', but it could be the other way around.

The answer to my question of long ago (what was odd about the Comm officer of Rivera Installtion and the bloke who give the cutscene briefing about the Taranus?)
The answer is there name tags both show the same name (which I can't remember off hand). Methinks V used the same body model for both people.

Here's a hard one:

You know that GTD for example stands for: Galatic Terran Destroyer, or GTC for Galactic Terran Cruiser but what stands GTVA for according to the Colossus.

I guess it is just Galactic Terran-Vasudan Alliance, since although it was a military vessel, it carried far more symbolic meaning to the people than the other ships. They could have called it GTVD or GTVJ, but I guess GTVA sounds a bit cooler. But its current designation makes it sound like Galactic Terran-Vasudan AWACS. :p :D

On a side note, has anyone noticed that the Rahu has the incorrect designation of SSG, where it should be SG? Probably a typo or something...

I don't know it myself but maybe it stands for Galatic Terran Vasudan Anhilator or something like that :D

Exits are to the right and left and flamethrowers are under your seat.  Make sure to keep some food on you at all times - the Shivans are pretty hungry around here.  Better your lunch than you. ;)

Always a pleasure to see new faces here.  Echelon IV, please make yourself at home. :)

 
Thx for the warm welcome :)

i followed you link and

GTVA: GALACTIC TERRAN VASUDAN AWACS ?

there is no such thing.

hmm, should be GTA galactic terran awacs, since you miss that one.

GV´s are vasudan build
GV´s are terran build

so GTV´s must be ships built in joint effort as the collosus, which should really have been called GTVJ, which would mean Galactic Terran Vasudan juggernaut.

but someone at V forgot to think about the games terminology when they gave it a class abrrivation

so that GTVA simply would mean Galactic Terran Vasudan Alliance

but then again, only we, "the fs2 nerds" care :D.

tee hee hee.... trick question here :D

The transport was part of a wing. GT Intelligence 1 arrived with a Valkyrie as escort, GT Intelligence 2 .

And the Valkyrie had a Prometheus for some reason. I remember now.

Here's one. In Clash of the Titans II, all sorts of Shivan bombers were thrown at you; except one. That one class you didn't fight was shown in the Bastion Dies cutscene! What was it?

There is absolutely no reason why we need 'memorization' questions. This is trivia, damnit!
