You can probably fit two Lokis in place of one Ursa. :p

More like 8 :p

Hecate = 150 "combat spacecraft".  Since when did the Hades ship out with 100% Loki fighters?!

Hecate [2174m] = 150 combat spacecraft
Hades [3404m] = 200 combat spacecraft

What's your problem? Are you constipated or something? Being EXTA anal? :P

Ah, and the Colly?  Hmm, I guess the Colly is a Destroyer / SuperDestroyer / Battleship, and the Hades is an aircraft carrier.  :lol:  That's what it's used for, anyways...

Colossus [6117] = 240 spacecraft.

Note, the Colossus does not carry "combat" spacecraft. Since the Hecate can carry 150 "combat" spacecraft, it might be able to carry more of other spacecraft.

The Colossus carries 60 fighter and bomber wings, according to the cutscene.  Now, if fighters and bombers don't register as "combat spacecraft", I don't know what do.
Spoon - I stand in awe by your flawless fredding. Truely, never before have I witnessed such magnificant display of beamz.
Axem -  I don't know what I'll do with my life now. Maybe I'll become a Nun, or take up Macrame. But where ever I go... I will remember you!
Axem - Sorry to post again when I said I was leaving for good, but something was nagging me. I don't want to say it in a way that shames the campaign but I think we can all agree it is actually.. incomplete. It is missing... Voice Acting.
Quanto - I for one would love to lend my beautiful singing voice into this wholesome project.
Nuclear1 - I want a duet.
AndrewofDoom - Make it a trio!

Key word being "Wings."   Now, how many ships are typically in a wing?
Could we with ink the ocean fill, and were the skies of parchment made
Were every stalk on earth a quill, and every man a scribe by trade
To write the love of God above, would drain the ocean dry
Nor could the scroll contain the whole, though stretched from sky to sky!

A wing is generally formed by 3/4 spacecraft. The Colossus should have something like 180-240 spacecraft(assuming that heavy bombers occupy more space).

In the cutscene the number of spacecraft per wing is displayed, the problem is that I can't watch it right now.

Really, I think there should have been a set of missions on its own about tracking down the Hades and then blowing it up after a while.  All this time while dodging the rogue GTI and the Shivans too,  and maybe a bit of HOL.

Gotta say, the ST campaign started out great, the first few missions were actually cool and worthwhile.  Then things started going downhill.......

I could handle that - and alternate end to Silent Threat Reborn: Mission would be based off the Unmade Crusade Episode "To The Ends of the Earth"

Mm-hmm...if the GTI finished the Hades earlier on in the campaign and get it to destroy the Krios and pretty much wreak havoc in GTVA systems...what say you? :drevil:

Provided that the GTD Hades will indeed play a more "active" role in the ST:R campaign, does this mean we'll be seeing those omgwtfbbqfishsticks Shivan Super Lazors put to use?

Boystrous 19 year old temp at work slapped me in the face with an envelope and laughed it off as playful. So I shoved him over a desk and laughed it off as playful. It's on camera so I can plead reasonable force.  Temp is now passive.

Quit trying to figure out ST:R before you play it, it ruins all the fun. :P
To consider the Earth as the only populated world in infinite space is as absurd as to assert that in an entire field of millet, only one grain will grow. - Metrodorus of Chios
I wept. Mysterious forces beyond my ken had reached into my beautiful mission and energized its pilots with inhuman bomb-firing abilities. I could only imagine the GTVA warriors giving a mighty KIAAIIIIIII shout as they worked their triggers, their biceps bulging with sinew after years of Ivan Drago-esque steroid therapy and weight training. - General Battuta
