yeah i know about thst spot too but its a real pain the the royal behind to make it all the way there safely. Also the main advantage of the Deimos is the fact that it can take much more of a pounding then the Aeolus. If you wanna go by the numbers and asign the most deadly warships in Fs2 to a normal sized ship that would be Deimos. even with its slasher beams it still can dish out a somewhat adequate amount of dammage and its aaaf defences cand pound both small and large ships alike.

So in a way the Deimos is the most deadly of all Fs2 non-jugg size warships.

At least that is my opinion.

However i also believe the Hecate to be the best allround destroyer in game . Seconded by the demon.

[blowfish]

I'd have to go with the Hatshepsut.  Its anti-warship weaponry isn't as good as the Orion and its anti-fighter weaponry isn't as good as the Hecate, but it is a good balance between the two.  Plus, it has the most hitpoints of any GTVA destroyer.

The front 45 degrees cone of the Deimos is defended by only 2 TTs. Those are easy to toast with Tempests and Subachs in a fighter. If you are in a bomber, you can ignore those 2 and continue with your bombing runs. Just make sure you get out of the way when it jumps out.

The Hecate has disgustingly bad weapon arrangements, not to mention a bunch of slashes that can't take down a Moloch on its own. The Hatshepsut may have 2 AAAf less, its 11 std flak is better than the mix of 10 the Hecate has, and with a smaller surface area to defend. Not to mention the Hatshepsut has more HP.

The Lilith, to be fair, is said to be exceedingly rare in the FS1 tech room

[Killer Whale]

Hatsesput, Hecate, Orion, Typhoon, Sobek, Leviathon, Leviathon, Mentu, Aten, Alpha, Deimos. Pointing to node. Rakshasa jumps in. Alpha 1 engages. Juggernaut jumps in behind whole group and PWNS almost everything. Alpha 1 destroys juggernaut an hour or two later.

I'm making that situation, can anyone tell me how to make it downloadable from the net? (not the bit about alpha 1 destroying the jugg though)

End, 1st place bomber, 2nd place Jugg, 3rd place Hatsesput or the one that's furthest away.

[Jeff Vader]

  Upload it somewhere? Sounds kinda boring, no offense. If you mean that Alpha 1 singlehandedly takes out a jugg, that is. Believe me. I've done it.

[Killer Whale]

Alpha one is not supposed to be able to take out anything that large, but would be able to. I'll remember to make the jugg jump out in the end or make it invunreble so that doesn't happen.

And if you think it seems boring, everyone needs to start somewhere, even the great Turey was once an FS2 modding Noob.

Yeah but using it in a campaign is a sign of utterly stupid mission design. Remember mission 2 of DEM? "Kill all the Lucifers. This is my first mission i hope u liek it"

[Killer Whale]

No i don't remember that mission. Show me how to download it. And it would be nice if someone showed me how someone might be able to download a mission/campaign of mine.

[Jeff Vader]

Yeah but using it in a campaign is a sign of utterly stupid mission design ****ing dimwitted. Remember mission 2 of DEM? "Kill all the Lucifer's. This is my first mission i hope u liek it "

Fixed.

Yes, but most people (hopefully) practice in silence, starting with the simple "destroy one enemy wing and one cruiser" missions and then further developing their skills. They are only concerned about releasing their missions when they actually believe they've achieved something "non-noobish" in the field of mission design. And how much has Turey modded, anyways? To me he is only the Installer Dude (and I mean it in the most positive way imaginable).

No i don't remember that mission. Show me how to download it. And it would be nice if someone showed me how someone might be able to download a mission/campaign of mine.

Search for Deus Ex Machina and download it. Pretty much the same as with downloading anything else.

As I already stated: If you want people to download your mission:
- upload it somewhere
- attach it to one of your posts
- share it via torrent or something

The Aelous was an absolute bastard to take out in Homesick.

[BengalTiger]

I have to disagree with those who claim the GTC Leviathan is the deadliest anti-strike craft platform.
The reason is 2 well placed Stiletto II's which make a whole side safe.
The same 2 S. II's will only make an Aeolus angry, and that is IF the bombs make it through the flak (which sometimes works better at killing bombs than Terran Turrets and AAAf's).

[Snail]

2 Stilettos? Where?

[BengalTiger]

Aimed at neighboring AAA guns.

[Mars]

Also AAA can only deal with (in the case of a Leviathan) four fighters at a time, while flak can make an entire area inaccessable.

Anyone who played the Freespace 2 Demo on insane and remember how much of a ***** that Moloch was to take out, just because of a flak and a couple laser turrets?

Heh, I converted it to single player and tried on my own. I tried beating it 10 times on medium or hard but couldn't.

   Er, yeah. 2 Stillettos which the Leviathan will promptly shoot down unless you're close enough to get shot to pieces in the first place.

Trebuchets.

[blowfish]

Trebuchets are your friends.

[Droid803]

Trebuchets are the anti-everything weapon.
I can treb out all of the aeolus's turrets too >.>
