EA war continued AFTER R1, right?
This begins to confuse me. :confused: see?

Are you still using "fire-and-forget" missiles, right? :)

Wait, i think i understood this all. R1 contains Chapter 1 v1. reR1 are events from Chapter 1 from another prospect. R2 contains C1 v2 and C2.
Is that right?
If in your opinion there's no difference beetwen "Master Game" and "Game Master", I can only feel for you.

No

INF Release 1: Retail made campaign that ends with the EA war. Has a SCP patch.
INF R1.5: A unreleased mod which included chapter 2 of the old release, before the reworking began.

INF SCP: SCP remake of the entire campaign, complete rip of old R1 stuff. Currently 2 chapters, EA war and Shivan incursion.

INF SCP is what you call R2 or ReR1. INF SCP R2 will be the 2nd chapter and any needed patches.

The R1 and INF SCP storylines though similar do not connect in any way. The new chapter 1 is not from another perspective, it's a complete redo of the original campaign in a more solid and updated fashion.

Chapter 1 is our current progress, the only thing ready for the 2nd is the ships/weapons.

Ok, now last question: could you give list of ship classes in R2? (only names, nothing more)

If I won't forget I'll do gauntlets for R2, but first we need R2 relase :D

My idea:
1)Light fighter EA gauntlet
Light fighter Terran gauntlet
Light fighter Vasudan gauntlet
Light fighter Shivan gauntlet

2)Same for medium and heavy fighter.

-It'll contain dogfight phase.

3) Same with Light,medium, heavy bombers

-but it would contain capship attack run.

4) Inteceptor
- capship escort

5) Assault fighter & bomber
- dunno yet.

6) stealth fighter- you vs swarm of non stelth ship, at the ene you vs veteran stealth fighters (one of each race, but one at time)

Assault fighter/bomber don't go together. The assualt bombers are the Jotun and Notus while the Alves and Keres are the fighters.

All fighters should be grouped into one gauntlet, it would make it more challenging to go up against a light fighter in a heavy one.

OMG a lot of these. ;)
Gauntleds: i think the same as Woomeister. One bomber and one fighter for each race.

Assault fighter & assault bomber Gauntlet (Shivan for sure, maybe Terran,EA and Vasudan too)

You have a SJ escorted by cruisers and fighter escort.
You can play as ass. bomber (attack)  of ass. fighter (escort), task- erase everything.

The assault fighter would not be able to take the cruiser (most likely) or the Sathanas, so it couldn't 'erase everything'

Almost any fighter can destroy almost any cruiser, at least in FS2, so
"the cruiser" is either very heavily armored or armed or both, right?

I've seen the ship types/classes, will all races get at least one ship in each type/class?
(All races = EA, GTVA and Shivan; since you said SOC and Ancients were removed)

Some cruisers have the "big damage" flag so can't be destroyed by fighter weapons.

No most of those classes are Terran specific as the other races have less stuff, though some classes like 'Long Range Destroyer' are Vasudan only.

"Pocket destroyer", like a corvette, more or less?
Does it really destroys pockets?:D

That's the GTD Oberon, 1.4km long destroyer with no fighterbay and lots of plasma cannons. It's very small compared to the other destroyers.
