Simply look up the vp-files.
It was the Hydra, part of Serkr indeed.

Which introduces the possibility that Serkr was split up for this operation, (which seems odd as they are supposed to work as a team) or they took some significant losses. Not wiped out clearly, but if the Hydra was there one has to ask why the Pilum and the Marcus Glaive were not

At the end of WiH, the war is effectively lost, with both 2FM and 3JRF being reduced to a shadow of their former selves. Supporting Byrne and whatever his endgame plan is is pretty much the only option they have.

Makes me wonder what black-ops trickery the Laporte & the Fedayeen (sp) are going to get up to in WiH part 2...


The strong inner Tev within me says 'hopefully nothing' xD

Also @ Mars (since i dont want to quote his massive casualty chart in order to save space haha) I think we can safely add the Indus as a possible loss (unless there has been info saying the indus makes it out) Because that ship is friggen torched, and in a decaying solar orbit when we leave it. I'm inclined to think that the Fedayeen would save the crew and not bother to attempt to tow the indus. They didnt bring anything capable of towing it with them, unless some freighters jump in right after the screen cuts away, and the Indus was on a pretty tight clock for the point of no return.

Fear not, Indus. Careful listening is our...specialty. We are preparing engineering teams to assist with repairs, and shuttles to evacuate your casualties.


...which is pretty damned surprising considering how thoroughly the Indus has been thrashed. But it appears they're at least trying.

Also, IIRC one of the many Ttutas has posted a picture of the rest of Serkr Team engaging either the Eris or Toutatis simultaneous with Delenda Est.

The strongER inner Fed in me prays that you have seen s**t yet !! 

Remember the Fedayeen have access to 'considerable' resources .. so that could mean some significant technology/fleet assets/intelligence etc that could just help turn the tides and they were'nt a factor .... unit now .


Also the GTVA can just rotate another battlegroup in if losses were to heavy, withdraw the current for repairs. The UEF don't have that luxury.

Nope, they can't. Not without making an already complicated logistical and political issue even more complicated.

In the end cutscene we see that the Vasudans too have committed a Task Force/Battlegroup to the Sol theater ..so that would mean that the Tev's are doing well both logistically & politically  :nervous:

Dug up the picture. It's the third screenshot in the initial post of this thread. http://www.hard-light.net/forums/index.php?topic=76041.msg1508712#msg1508712

The Fedayen's 'considerable resources' are about to meet the Tevs + the Zods I hope.

Just because Noemi wants one side to win, and just because one side must win, doesn't mean it will be her side

Honestly, given only the UEF and GTVA, what would a realistic win scenario be for the UEF? Not really anything like a win in an ant war (utter extermination)

I wonder if the Vasudans could be the red ants.

Now that would be something interesting. We have yet to see the vasudans make a move, maybe this will be what bp3 is about.

Hm...I don't think that Khonsu would waste military assets against the UEF.
Right now it would make sense to strengthen their position in Sol and force the TEVs and FEDs to negotiate again.

Khonsu prepares most of it's military assets against the "apocalypse". That was mentioned in one tech room entry.
"Ka-BOOOOOOOOM!!!!"
"Uh, Sir we can hear the explosion."
"No you can't, there is no air in space. Sound can't travel through a vacuum!"

I know, but that apocalypse surely involves Shivans and not some flowergirls in Sol;)

Are you sure that the shivans are the possible apocalypse? maybe, there is another species around in the BP-verse?

That's the problem of BP. All those mysteries :D

Touché, maybe the TEVs and FEDs fight their little war to the bloody end, only for the vishnans to appear saying "Gotcha" and firing their lazorz.

BP3 will be about fighting giant ants in space suits, I'm sure
