Nice of your to honor the traditions of the first game.

From this mission forward, I have a sentinel shield up around the mothership at all times.

I still think the Kadeshi multibeams are cooler. Barrelrolling into the enemy while holding the fire button and cackling maniacally is exactly what I'd do given that firepower.
Still, Somtaaw are finally starting to show some of the crazier engineering of theirs. It'll get even better; those guys are loving maniacs when it comes to mounting guns on things.

Kadeshi Multibeams are cooler, but they don't fulfill the same role as MBF. Still, nothing can compare with a wall of nearly corvette-sized ships approaching the enemy, engaging four ion cannons, doing one barrel roll and leaving only debris behind.

I played through Cataclysm three times and I have no idea what line you are talking about :(

That Turanic Raider Carrier that cannot be captured! :argh:

It offends my sense of what the Bord Hiigarans should be able to salvage, and it's also a really cool ship. A battlestar.

Oooh I remember the best line in the game now. But the best line in the whole series comes from the final mission of Homeworld 2, no doubt about it. Bring SPOILER to bear!

Also, an LP guy named Arumba is doing HW:Remastered videos if people want to see what it's like. He's okay, though he tends to not pay close attention to what the game's telling him he needs to do sometimes so be prepared to see non-optimal play. At least he's not a facecamming shrieking hysteric like so many "professional" YT LPers, so there's that.

Isn't that the CK2 and EUIV LP guy?

The Kuun-lan can survive premature siege cannon detonation, so that wouldn't necessarily be game-ending. There's a couple different ways that can happen - most commonly a ship flying in front of the cannon's barrel at exactly the right wrong moment - and while it does instantly blow off all your modules it won't kill the ship.

But you can kiss all your support and research modules goodbye if the siege cannon shot explodes too closed to the Kuun-lan.

This is the end.


I just wish the ending credits were longer so I could decompress my thoughts a bit more.

Before I watch the video, I just want to say that I love the Babylon 5 reference.

Edit: I used Leeches to destroy the two emitters, not MCVs.
