Seriously, of transports or light cruisers. Especially transports when they are carrying enemy commanders or something like that. Helios bombs too, so before the enemy realizes what the Myrm squad is doing, their commander is dead.

It's one of those "it's canon, so I'll accept it from the main campagin" things, I think it's really stupid, even laughable, that the Myrmidon has Helios bombs. Even if it could carry 2 cyclops bombs it would be okay, but four Heliei is beyond pushing it.

[eliex]

Yes, a Myrmidon, which is a standard space-superiority fighter carrying 4 of the most powerful bombs available is . . . really weird. But you can't say that it doesn't go amiss right?  (Especially in gauntlet missions - by the time the destroyer turns up, your bomber is long dead)

[FUBAR-BDHR]

Do you know any current state of the art military aircraft (not counting UAV's) that can't carry nukes?  I've never really understood why if the FREDer wanted he couldn't remove the anti-fighter weapons and equip a couple of Helios on a Herc or even stick one on a Stealth.   Having one or two armed with nukes in a pack would be a heck of a surprise.

I prefer to think that they didn't have enough sleep.

If the helios was a mistake why wasn't it in the 1.1 patch?

[Colonol Dekker]

For great justice?

[eliex]

Can't remember off hand but maybe in the missions with the Helios in the main FS2 campaign the Myrmidon wasn't present to test it out. Or perhaps what a friend said.

Yes, looking back it was a rather dumb thing to write, but I thought it sounded ok.

I have to assume by that time people had actually played some multiplayer games and probably built a few missions too.

[Mars]

Well, were different versions of the multiplayer game supposed to be compatible?

[CP5670]

If the helios was a mistake why wasn't it in the 1.1 patch?

Probably because it didn't affect any campaign missions.

There were many issues still left in the game after 1.2 though, especially on the multiplayer side.
