Re: Major Destroyer Deaths in Campaigns
There are two possible missions after the Nyarlathotep scan:
Spoiler:
1) The scan goes well--the Valhalla attempts a preemptive attack but not before more ships pop up. The next mission is the one with the Valhalla's jump drives busted in the nebula. It can be destroyed by the Cthon but the player can also prevent that.

2) You get caught early in the scan mission and pull out. Valhalla does not attempt a preemptive attack, but instead goes after the Llith accompanying the Nyarlathotep. The Llith pulls back and the Valhalla is ambushed and destroyed by both the Cthon and Azathoth.

The latter is an image permanently engraved in my skull.

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.

You're right. Then, my favorite canon Destroyer death is the Lysander.

Yes, no contest. When the Generation was finally and irrevocably dead, I felt a massive weight lift from my shoulders. But when it came back . . . I nearly fainted from shock.

Transcend. Campaign, not a mod (excepting the Kelpie.)

Re: Major Destroyer Deaths in Campaigns
Sorry to rederail this, but, if someone were to make a campaing where you were a Vasudan stationed on the Psamtic (spelling?), then its death would likely be more moving.  Does anyone remember where the now homeless Psamtic pilots went?

Yes. Easy to remember, this bit. :nod:

Unless if you're talking about Vasuda Prime, in which case... :nervous:

I think he was referring to the "Psamtic (sp?)", and I was answering the question. :p

Re: Major Destroyer Deaths in Campaigns
:lol:

Apart from the Memphis and Psamtik, are there any other canon Hatshepsut-class destroyers?

Which should have been Khnum, anyway.

I had a GVD Khnum in many of my first missions. It was my vision of a worth Psamtik's successor. When I discovered that there was a GVD Chnum in a multiplayer mission I found the whole thing interesting.
