Hi,

has anyone ever managed to stop the NTF Iceni in Freespace 2?

I guess it is impossible but, who knows... I tried few times in "very easy" without luck...

You mean in the third mission? It's supposed to escape. In Endgame, it is supposed to escape...too...

With cheats everything is possible. The storyline and mission design in both missions state very clearly that the Iceni must escape, since FreeSpaces don't feature branching campaigns.

you can kill the evil wignmen in the last SoC mission before they turn hostile. [v] used something like "no traitor" (if they even had that with retail FRED)

Yeah. This is what happened the last time some over eager Alpha 1 attempted to defy destiny.

We should have something like "For saving the GTVA Colossus, destroying several Juggernaut class Shivan warships and preventing an inevitable supernova of the Capella star, and doing all this while flying a ****ing one man fighter, GTVA Command awards you the Quadruple Ace".

quadruple ace is not good enough alpha1 should be promoted to supreme commander of the GTVA fleets.

Then he can start a war and hunt down some of those idiots form GTVA command!


But about the Iceni that ship is a monster. Also has seriously weak aaaf defences for its size. Well weak compared to the Deimos that is which is another beast altoghether....! I dare you to try and take out a Deimos while thinking its dirt easy ! The shivans tried and failed miserably.
Die shivan die!!
Then jumps into his apple stealth pie and goes of to war.What a brave lad....what a brave lad say the ladies in red.

See, that would regard him as useless, because he would be stuck behind a desk all his career.

Would there even be an FS2 if you cooked Iceni?  Well i suppose Trinity might go its merry way and still open up the gate but, if not... aside from a few wrapping up the NTF missions that would be the campaign in a nutshell :p

Yeah... I disabled the Iceni in the third mission... and nothing happened... of course.

 
if i ever make a campaign, whenever something happens, i'm just gonna make command say "YOU FRAKKING CHEATER!!!" and blow up Alpha one
