While making mission #3 in All Hands To War TM, i came across a question, for a shivan reinforcement/strike squad, would you rather see;

• 1 Demon+3 wings of fighters?
• 3 Liliths+2 fighter wings+1 bomber wing?
• 5 Cains+2 fighter wings+3 bomber wings?

now my reasons of debate...

Demon;
pros: big, many turrets, strong
cons: slow, one target for friendly ships and mass firings

3 Liliths;
pros:  strong, fair speed, friendly forces must split to cover both
cons: lack of many turrets

5 cains;
pros: overwhelming number of shivan ships, many turrets, individual placements, must spread assets to attack
cons: weak


these are to be pitted against 1 leviathon, Alpha(4 Hercs) and 8 Ursas with tsunamis and harbs.

the demon lasted 100 seconds and killed the leviathon and one ursa plus me when i was hit by it arriving... (brings back memories about; Dive! Dive! Dive! Hit your burners, Pilot! :D)

the liliths wiped out the ursas and the levaithon, but died when the terran backup (an orion) arrived

The cain group took out all the ursas and the leviathon, they put a siseable dent in the orion but were taken out fairly easily by one additional leviathon with the orion...

so tell me what you would like to see... if i can get good feedback the campagain will start moving again... also, if someone wants to see the mission firsthand or test others tell me...

THIS IS FOR FS1, SO NO BEAMS ARE INVOLVED...

You are probably prepared for this question but here goes:
Why are you making a FS1 campaign? (but that wouldn't stop me from playing it)

I've searched for hours for fs1 camps. and found <20... in a fs1 campagain, you don't need new mods because it is before fs2 so the ships stay the same untill reconstruction when they made more... and you pretty much have a storyline from the fs2 command berifings and tech room... if anyone would like to try the missions... E-mail me, or post here with your e-mail... also tell me if you want it in .fsm or wordpad... i can also send the mission with the three strike forces... and keep voing, i'll have the final version 24 hours from now... i hope... also tell me if you would like to help with missions and stuff...

My unnamed contact and i still need assistance, from scripting to fs1-2 mission conversion and design. Requirements are the mods from Fsport by Galactic Empire. Found at: http://www.3dactionplanet.com/hlp/hosted/fsport/main/anims.zip

Final note:

This campagain has been converted into FreeSpace2 for greater likelihood of being payed, it will use fs1 ships and some fs2 but a high chance against flack and beams. (Maby. Maby not...)
