Yes I do. Unless you mean what they're shooting at.

Maybe that blocked directive message is supposed to say "defend the GTA Euminadies" and the other might say "The Euminadies Meson core is at 200%".

You should note that there are two Golgotha class warships in the screenshot, and that the Eumenedes is the AWACS.

[Prophet]

Why does it say in the directives you need to defend THE GTD Golgotha, when there are two of her sisterships hanging around?
Either Golgothas are banging each other, or they are trying to protect THE Golgotha from something truly horrific.

[Anaz]

or the player is assigned to the GTD Golgotha, and not one of the other ones

[Fragrag]

Is it a new killer buoy the Shivans designed?

Typically, the very first ship of it's class produced is named after the class. So the GTD Golgotha would be the first Golgotha produced. Just as the GTD Orion would be the first Orion class made. (Or from what I've read, atleast)

This mission probably takes place after the player gets to decided which side to choose.

I will say yes to this one.

Why would two Golgotha class destroyers be deployed against a Shivan comm node when there are no Shivans in BWO?

[NGTM-1R]

Because the Shivans snuck into BWO through the Ikeya node.

The Objective Roster obviously houses an unknown objective, likely to destroy the Shivan Ship behind the player; and below that, a "Protect GTD ******", as in, protect the second Golgotha Class Destroyer. Moreover, the blanked out words in the speech at the top of the screen are, in my opinion, just blurred to make it look more mysterious. It probably just says; "...*Name of Unknown Golgotha Destroyer*: Admiral, the Supercharged (or just insert tech-talk here) Meson Reactor is at 200%...

...Regarding the Shivan-like Capital Ship in the roster on the side is definitely of Juggernaut Class, as you can see the 'J', even with the Blur. Outwardly, it could be a Sathanas, but the name looks a little short for that, so - coupled with the secrecy shrouding this Shivan Craft, another class of a Shivan Uber Ship...? Well, that would be a good answer, if there actually were Shivans in BWO (or is it an elaborate lie? ). So, definitely another class of ship, almost definitely a 'J' or Juggernaut designation, and it kinda looks like a 'P' there too, so it could be 'PJ ******' (Yes, the Gigantic Pyjamas of Doom!). Past that, i've no idea in hell what it could be...

...Also, it wouldn't surprise me if the ship you're flying is a Terran Mara, the little avatar down the bottom looks a bit like it, and you have Duel Kaysers (although not really surprising if you're given the choice) which is standard on Maras...

Thats not what I meant you know.
You need to learn to think like Terrans

[Taristin]

's hard to think backwards, though

Oooooo you really want BWO to deal with Shivans, eh?

[Raven2001]

who doesn't??

Actually, it's a not-so-subtle hint that we want Twilight back...

Well, that among other things. But anyways, the possiblity to work them into the story does exist, so some of us have difficulty believing they won't make some appearance.

[Ace]

Twilight has been worked into the campaign here and there. You'll find out what happened to Talstavi, Soyavo, "The Babel Device," etc.

However, there are no Shivans in BWO.

I will say though that Section 3 of the GTVI may have some Mara class fighters left over from the Russik Incident. (Warzone)

[Jetmech Jr.]

*sigh* The Golgotha's not unique anymore

And...err...Twilight?

[Ace]

Welcome to last year Jetmech:

[Black Wolf]

The shield arcs line up perfectly for a Mara's shield Icon.
