Maybe, even though we have seen in the past that shooting Shivans does **** all, just maybe it'll work this time? Is THAT your grand plan to save humanity?

We should have just let the Lucifer had his way with you guys.
Ungrateful bastards.

In one universe, you did. Didn't work out that well, did it?

Oh. Right.

One universe? You guys hearing this? The Feddies here are now talking about different universes.
Poor fellows, I'm not even sure if I should feel pity or laugh in their faces.
This my friends, is what Ubuntu does to your mind.

Oh, right, I forgot, silly me. Your benevolent overlords don't allow you access to that kind of information, do they? It's all classified this and Top Secret that and [REDACTED] over here. I'm sorry, citizen, but I guess you have to go get your mandatory brainwashing now.

mandatory brainwashing

[Dilmah G]

Whoa, all this in half a day?

Yeah, and some Tev commanders are douchebags.  I'm sure the same holds for Buntus, as well.  We've just seen only the Buntu side of things though.

Which ones?

Yep, I loved the campaign, and I liked the UEF, but everything in it just convinced me that the GTVA are in the right here

Spoiler:

(even the assassination of the Elder. It's war you whiny Fed 'tards, and that's called a decapitation strike. Grow up.)

I mean, if this is how the GTVA can utterly wtfpwn the Feds, they have no hope against the Shivans.

That, and Admiral Steele is one glorious, magnificient bastard and I would be truly honoured to be one of his pilots. I salute that man's tactical and strategic genius.

Funnily enough, I actually made the point you made in spoilers whilst testing.

Yeah, the only commander who could even be called a douchebag, maybe, is Severanti. Maybe.

Whereas Byrne is an utter idiot.

And, well, Dilmah, great minds think alike (Or fools seldom differ, your call )

[General Battuta]

Whereas Byrne is an utter idiot.

Byrne does have a line in m04. He at least thinks he's not an idiot.

[Snail]

I had the impression Byrne was doing something super sekret involving the Fedayeen, the Elders and the Beis. The UEF's super sekret project thing.

Yet Steele was well on his way to rolling over them before they got a chance to complete it. Probably still is. Otherwise we wouldn't have a Part 2.

Dude, all he did was hid a carrier in an asteroid belt. 
Admirals Netreba and Calder were arguably far better strategic minds, I have to say.

[Dilmah G]

That wasn't the genius part.

The genius part was that the Feds walked into it.

He engineered the whole thing with the Carthage though. It was a massive double-bluff, planned for weeks and months and pulled off expertly. They lost almost no warships in that entire engagement, with the damaged ones pulling out, yet the Feds got their arses handed to him.

He's a genius.

But surely the loss of the Agincourt was a terrible blunder! There's no way his logistics can recover!

[Droid803]

Give them hope, then snatch it all away at the last moment - that is the way to bestow total despair upon your opponents.

Temporary setback at best, especially when the SOC operation that brought the Vasudans in firmly on the side of their erstwhile allies paid off, giving the Tevs unassailable Logistics.

Unless you were mocking the Wargods, and I missed it due to the internet

But surely he already set up the whole thing involing an elder, stealth fighters and Gaian activists to gain the logisitical support from a certain third party?

Isn't it clear by now who Admiral Steele really is?

He has contingencies for his contingencies for his contingencies, it's so obvious!

The only person nearly as well prepared as Admiral Steele, and no-one else can be that well prepared is...

Batman.

Yes, more reason why the GTVA is awesome.

They have Admiral BATMAN.
