Other missed battles?
Just like the Battle of Deneb, are there any other battles both in FS1 and 2 that the player doesnt take part in?

Re: Other missed battles?
Gee what do you think? :P I know atleast 4-6 major battles that you do not take part in. :)

Re: Other missed battles?
I know there are a few too but the last time I even touched anything of FS was about 2 years ago, so could say which ones do we miss? You know, refresh my memory. ;)

Re: Other missed battles?
The Goliath one, the Eisenhower one, and the one with the HOL attacking allied Vasudans or was it Shivans?

Re: Other missed battles?
Sorry, I should've written better, I mean the battles that occur during the game not before it, like when the first Sathanas breaks the Allied blockade of the Capellan node.

Re: Other missed battles?
I can think of many. The two Sirius offensives against the NTF, the Colossus's operations in Polaris, the battle at the Vega node in Capella (during Clash of the Titans II), and so on. Some of the FRED Zone multiplayer missions were based on these situations.

 
Re: Other missed battles?
The player also has only a minor role in the second battle for deneb, with the NTF. lots more things happened there.

(and I plan to create some missions about that)

And what happened to the aquatine when Alpha 1 was on the psamtik?

Here is another one: The capturing of the maras early in the nebulae campaign

A squadron named the 91st Squadron of the GTD Aquitaine was doing recon on the Saths in the Battle for Capella. Would make for a cool mission, eh? ;7

The Battle of Tombaugh Station.

Basically:
Heavily fortified station: 0 (and I quote from the game "That place was a fortress!")
Shivan Superdestroyer: 1
"Closing the Box" - a campaign in the making :nervous:

Rain on Ribos IV you mean?


There also are many other operations the player doesn't partecipate on. Like the first encounter with a Moloch corvette in the Nebula...

And does the name GTD Aeneas remind you something? ;)

What's that, the name of the mission? Now I'm just confused.

Rain on Ribos 4 is the Tombaugh Station campaign.

Re: Other missed battles?
Oh, a campaign...

Still, I think Sarafan was refering only to V made (and Silent Thread) events, not user-created missions.

Those particular battles are covered in the multiplayer missions too. Rebel Intercept, Sirius Blockade and Touch of Fate are all set in that theater.
