never had any trouble myself.
any Tidan ship can be sub-verted. Lost a cruiser and 3 destroyers to one blast.

Even the Tai Heavy Cruisers are vulnerable to Subversion.  So it's good to keep them in the back of the Battle Group.  

Your big ships only take damage because the Captains flood the infected decks with drive plasma, incinerating the infected stuff.
So as through a glass, and darkly
The age long strife I see
Where I fought in many guises,
Many names, but always me.

yeah but that only applies to Dreadnoughts and your own destroyers. I prefer Taidan ships.

Meh. Beat the game. I found a stash of savedgames for download.

If we had truly wanted peace, we should have had that as well. But true peace has never been one of the genuine dreams - we have got little further than preaching against war in order to appease our consciences.

Oh, boy.

Here we go again.

Ships that can be subverted:

  • All Soomtaw ships (except CS, Dread, Desty, Carrier)
  • No Kushan ships (except for Heavy Corv)
  • No Taii ships (except for Heavy Cruiser and MGC)
  • Turanic Raider ships (exceptions: Outpost, Carrier, Standard Corv)
  • Bentusi tradeships (they turn into Acolytes :D )
  • Other Beast ships ('cept MS and Carrier/Heavy Cruiser)


The designers did not add in subverted skins for all of the ships in the game, or the files would be ridiculously large and numerous. Thus, all that are not mentioned above take damage from an infection attack.

Ahem...

"The Deacon's baptism of fire came at the battle of Coruc Farr, when two Somtaaw Destroyers were left alone to hold off a Beast Heavy Cruiser and a full flight of infected strike craft. In the thick of battle, the lead Destroyer, the Naar-Tel, closed with the beast cruiser and was raked by an infection beam. As deck after deck of the Destroyer fell to the Beast infection, the Naar's Captain made a desperate decision to vent drive plasma into the infected areas and then out into space. At the cost of gutting a quarter of his own ship and killing a sizable percentage of his own crew, the Naar's Captain was able to keep his ship in the battle and help destroy the beast Cruiser.

From that day on, the Naar Directive, as it became known, became the standard response from Allied heavy capital ships to Beast infections. And, while the price in Hiigarian life is always high, instant death in a blast of high-energy plasma is preferable to the twisted immortality of becoming part of the Beast."

HW:C rocked compared to the original HW. Better graphics, better voice acting (Wow they actually had feelings in their voices!), better mission scripting, better more involving storyline, etc, etc.

Mission 15, easy, just hurt the bentusi a bunch after you waste the Hspace gate

Careful how loudly you proclaim the greatness of HW:C.  There are places where you'll start a flame war.  Quickly!

I wasn't having a problem figuring out how to beat the level, I was having a problem figuring out how to make it end after I had beaten it - there was a scripting bug or something.

Missions are extremely difficult (Mission 4 and 12 are no exceptions). The interface is slightly different than what most HW veterans are used to, but its still a good game.
