Shivans are ultimate enemy GTVA what happened to Capella shivan destroyed it and there was no hope to save Capella so you can`t beat them ever because they are too powerfull only ultimate sacrefice can stop them for little time.

Of all the things i can think of, one possibility could be that the TSA (Terran Shivan Alliance, right?) modified (or rebuilt) the Icanus to acomidate one of the Main beam cannons on the Gargant, to make it an unstoppable vessel. The coop then takes this Icanus out of the space dock, and have to protect it while they manuver it into position to try and damage the Gargant.

It would be a long hard battle, but with sufficent fighter cover, and if the Icanus targeted the Gargant's rear beam cannons first, then they might have a chance.


Aren't the Gargant's main guns the same as the Gigas'? The Icanus' USilv is 5x as powerful one of the Gigas's two UReds.

The Gargants 'main' gun is its subspace weapon. The URed is its standard side beam.

Well I know the subspace weapons on the Sathanas and Vinaashak don't do nearly as much damage as the "U" beams. How much damage does the Garg's subspace weapon do in the tbl file and how much per shot.

I think Woo means "pretty big".  He can specify any large number, such as 6.02x10^23!  Now there's a mole of gravitons for you! :p

No, it doesn't run on batteries. And batteries/reactors aren't the only ways of generating power - remember that the Gargant has the some of the most advanced subspace technology in existence.

So this subspace crap powers the ship? But dont you need power to turn on the subspace crap to get power from subspace? So what was the uncaused cause in this case?

Yes, but you get all that power back and much more from harnessing subspace.
"The reason for this is that the original Fortran got so convoluted and extensive (10's of millions of lines of code) that no-one can actually figure out how it works, there's a massive project going on to decode the original Fortran and write a more modern system, but until then, the UK communication network is actually relying heavily on 35 year old Fortran that nobody understands." - Flipside

There's probably a "starter engine" that powers up the subspace drive

I've got it:

if the Gargant runs off of subspace as a power source, then all we need to do is STOP it from going into subspace by taking out its subspace drive somehow. Then it'll just run out of power.

It could run off a quantaum singularity (Romulan warbird style) but then all we have to do is make that black hole unstable, then, KABOOM!!!

Yeah, like that could happen. Even the Garg's TURRETS are 5x as tough as the Gigas. Each.

Maybe the EA loads up all its destroyers and its juggernaut with meson warheads and sends them right into the subspace weapon mounted on the front... that would blow a pretty little dent into it.
