Rogue Leader
Okay, so I've finished off SO2 yesterday, and I was just wondering about a few bits of trivia.
The Hha'ifra: Thrakhath's Flagship.
Do we know what class this ship was, and what happened to it when Thrakhath transferred to that gargantuan of a dreadnought later?
Rogakh Cruisers
These were used in the ground bombing of Ghorah Khar in SO1. Are they ever mentioned anywhere else?
Ship Design
Not WC2 related, but about ship designs - we know that Terrans prefer symmetric designs and Kilrathi asymmetric. What distinguishes the Nephilim ships? As far as I can recall, only the Orca destroyer is asymmetric, but I think one thing striking about the Nephilim craft is that they use seven points in their designs. I think so, anyway. Seven cooling towers on the wormhole, seven 'tentacles' on the Tiamat, etc.
That's all for the serious questions.
The Mace
Why can the Concordia survive a nuclear blast? More to the point, how can a Morningstar survive a direct Mace hit? (Maniac broke off and flew straight into my Mace. Stupid idiot.)
Text colour
I thought just about every major character in WC2 had their own colour for their speech text in cutscenes. It seems Angel and Talon speak the same way. Eww.
And as enthusiastic as I was for getting as many kills as possible - for the record, here's what I got. They include losing path missions (which often provide more cannon fodder, provided I ended up with the 'best' victory at the end of the campaign).
WC1 24 Missions 219 Kills - 5 Bronze 7 Silver 3 Gold
SM1 16 Missions 281 Kills - 2 Bronze 1 Silver 1 Gold
SM2 16 Missions 268 Kills - 2 Bronze 2 Silver 3 Gold
Total 56 Missions 768 Kills - 9 Bronze 10 Silver 7 Gold
WC2 31 Missions 243 Kills
SO1 19 Missions 183 Kills
SO2 19 Missions 158 Kills
Total 69 Missions 584 Kills
WC1/2 Total:
125 Missions 1352 Kills
Average 10.816 Kills per Mission
Ace status achieved twice every mission!
