Could any of the factions from SupCom FA beat races from Warhammer

Yes.

>>261023614
They would both lose to the races in StarCraft II because they would be controlled by real e-Sports players and not scrubby casual SimCity players like the ones that play SupCom.

>>261023614
You can start off with the Tau, they're nothing special when matched against other OP universes.

Something crazy like a full Tyranid fleet or Necrons with machine-possessing powers might get a little hairier.

>>261023614
Ground:yes, easily
Space:no

>The T1 small robot walkers are 18M tall and are the smallest units
>Have technology to make matter from energy
>can build an entire army quickly no mater where they are just by converting plants and landscape to usable resources
Yeah

>>261024370
Also, the very first unit sent out - the ACU - is fuckhuge, is an engineering suite by himself, and has relatively powerful combat systems.

What I want to know is what you could do against experimentals. Monkeylord spam? And that's not even getting into shit like Mavor and Paragon.

This thread has been had on /tg/ numerous times before.

The general consensus is that if any of the Supcom forces are allowed even a few hours to get up and running, then they can steamroll basically any 40k force on the ground.

The only real chance 40k has is either to strike with overwhelming power shortly after the ACU made planetfall, or to try and leverage orbital/space superiority.

Supcom does have spaceships, but likely nowhere near the size and number of 40k. Given that ACUs can build quantum gates, that renders space travel redundant. But if they were able to call in mass orbital bombardment or exterminatus before the ACU had a proper shield network running, they'd have a shot.

>>261025513
Do you have any links to archived discussions of this?

>>261023614
To be honest, I'm pretty sure the planetary annihilation faction could fuck them both up.

I mean for one the supcom factions/machines require actual pilots that drive them, meaning there would technically be a limit to how many pilots they can put out. The race of AI in PA has no pilots, it's like an entire supcom faction on autopilot who also have the ability to weaponize entire planets. They have all the advantages a supcom faction has (besides land based experimental units) and then some. They can also launch inter-planetary nukes.

Basically if a supcom faction started on one planet and the PA faction started on another, the supcom faction would be pretty fucked.

>>261026286
Not only that but in general the PA faction seems to build at a much faster rate in general by default, so they could actually field a formidable army much faster.

>>261026286
Only the commander unit and support units have pilots. everything else is AI.

>>261024217
oh how little you know. some of the wc3 and sc2 player started playing supcom on a pro level after the game died they went on to blizz games

>>261025513
makes sense

>>261026286
Only Commanders have pilots (and I think their tac support is around somewhere)

Everything else is driven by AI or controlled directly by the Commander.

>>261029521
Oh right, well still, that's a few more pilots than the PA faction needs.

Couldn't Chaos just corrupt the machines, and possess them, or something?

>>261026286
I personally like to think that SupCom, Total Annihilation and Planetary Annihilation are in the same timeline, just long ways apart.

The thousand year war and Seraphim conflict were the first galaxy wide wars, when ACUs still needed pilots. When the Seraphim got their asses kicked out the Cybran rebellion kept going, ending up as Core. By the time of TA the galaxy is pretty much dry of resources and the only a hint of human intelligence is remaining in the machines. This is also when the "metal planets" make their appearance. PA taking place long, long afterwards when some of the now completely robotic commanders malfunction and start killing the first thing they can find.

>>261031672
Makes plenty of sense to me and makes them all more enjoyable to play in a way, this is now my head-canon.

>>261030087
Who was playing supcom aside from TLO?

Those scales look fucked. I'm sure a pillar is lager than that.

>>261025916
Second this, sounds like a fun read.

No. Well, at least not the Imperium of Man. The Imperium literally has the resources of an entire galaxy available for them. Also they could just nuke the shit out of them from orbit.

>>261033393
SupCom commanders start shitting out nukes like candy if they're left alone for an hour or two.

Imperium might have all the resources imaginable but their interstellar travel is hideously slow, while ACUs can just teleport from system to system like nobody's business.

>>261031124
Supcom has stronger mindrape
Black Sun has power to mindrape everyone nearly instantly
Commanders are shielded from mind control anyway

>>261031124
Aeon will mindrape back.

>>261033393
Supcom races spread like a fucking virus. They could gate in commanders to your planets and just hop through conquering all of them. Nuking a planet would just mean one less planet YOU have access to.

Seraphim will wreck your shit

Only things that even stand a chance are other factions capable of exponential growth, like the Hiigarans (who would have space supremacy but would eventually lose anyway).
If you want to get crazier, the Culture, the Wolves, maybe a super-efficient Von Neumann swarm would be able to stomp them.

Yeah 40k is screwed. The only way the Imperium of Man would have a chance in a ground fight is if they happened to have a titan legion on the planet and they can get too the ACU within an hour.

Of course if the void dragon wakes from his nap on Mars well....

I've been reading other threads and consensus seems to boil down to 40k's main strengths being Daemons, Alpha Psykers, and Space Tech.

Is there really that much of a difference between the two? ARM is just putting organic components into the machines they send out to be blown up.

gameplaywise, not really, but i feel it tells a lot of how advance they technology is.
And mind you TA armies are just 'remnants, crippled beyond repair' so technically it isn't the full power of the Core Empire either.

Everyone always assumes The Imperium in these threads and not the Necrons or Chaos.

Just a reminder that Chaos can and routinely does possess machines and machine intelligences.

>>261043359
because the imperium is by far the strongest faction in 40k if they get to ignore all the other shit going on in their galaxy

Any of you shitlords actually want to play supcom instead of just wanking over energy to mass conversion?

Teleport a Terminator into the Command cockpit, done.

Defenses are up, smash 'em, then teleport.

Necrons wouldn't even care about the defenses

>>261046156
once a commander has a base going it still self works.
It can still build, defend and attack and spiral out of control if let.

On top of that SC is the lowest tier in comparison to TA and PA.
No worries about weakness such as assassination.
No worries about resources past the first hour.
Just endless building that can over a galaxy in less than a month if not stopped.

Are SupCom factions capable of inter galactical teleportation? By the sounds of this thread a single galaxy would get filled out way too fast and be irrecoverable once a faction has a hold of it.

Also how well does the single player campaign explain the SupCom universe? Is SupCom 2 canon?

>>261048415
>Are SupCom factions capable of inter galactical teleportation?
From what I recall there's a whole bunch of quantum gates floating around in the galaxy. They act like stargates/mass relays, where you can teleport from a planet to a gate, then beam from that gate to any other gate in the galaxy.

>>261048741

I'm rusty on the lore, but aren't the gates made by humans too? It's nice to have a universe where it's not some cop-out "ancient aliens did it!" bullshit.

>>261049067
Yes, the gate and the technology were pure man made

>>261049067
They send ships off into space that go and build these gates. When the cybran use the black sun to obliterate the entire thing I think they cited it would take a couple hundred years to rebuilt it all. Which begs the question, how the hell did they get there? Does supcom have FTL that doesn't require something on the other side to receive whatever you're sending?

>>261049067
>>261049151

Well the seraphim might of had something to do with it, but at most that would have been humans reverse engineering their tech.

>>261049350
>Does supcom have FTL that doesn't require something on the other side to receive whatever you're sending?
I'd say teleportation is FTL, and there doesn't seem to be a gate around when the commander first warps in.

>>261049350
Supcom can teleport anything anywhere but it requires a lot of energy
Quantum gates reduce this cost to near zero

we'll never know because they're separate universes

>>261049623
They have a highly energy intensive teleportation which sort of like a subspace catapult, a gateway makes it much more efficient to transport SCUs. It's the reason why your ACU flattens everything around him in a mile while your SCU rolls off the carpet.

all this heresy!

The only thing I didn't like about Supcom FA's story was QAI betraying you. Why can't I have a bro AI that helps you, its almost taboo in storytelling for some reason.

I never got why you had to destroy him either, what happened in Supcom 1 made it sound like the Seraphim gained backdoor access from the artifacts you stole to power him up. I guess its more of a betrayal/trust thing though. Fuck Supcom 2 for not using him at all, for other than a map name cameo.

>>261050273

>>261039334

Yeah, but Cain totally betrays you thanks to the override, and you can only get him back by having max relationships with everyone, iirc. That's some real nasty micromanaging of dialogue to have it at that point, and you can't even NG+ your stats or anything, you have to try over every time.

Say, are these TA/PA machines capable of learning how to actually wipe out an Ork menace on a planet permanently? On purpose that is.

>>261051449
Well, a lot of them use superheated plasma/lasers/flamethrowers so the potential to destroy the spores is there if they learn.

While story-wise they probably meant for that to be the case, this guy sure as fuck doesn't remind you of him at all. The personality is a complete opposite of QAI. Thats probably SE's fault though, the story was garbage especially what happened with Brackman and how he acted near the end.

>>261050481
I probably should of mentioned RTS. EVA is the closest to a helpful AI I can think of and shes more a notification system then an AI. A few times in Supcom 1 QAI helped you out, like when he created a virus for you to use to kill a swarm of gunships.

I'm not fun to play against winning or losing.

Is the base building speed of supreme commander/total annihilation canon?
In fluff, can they industrialize an entire planet in a matter of days?

Time is not on 40K's side.
It takes a commander just under an hour, to have a tier 3 base going and a massive army.

It takes the imperium 100 days to respond to a potential tyranid attack

>>261054062

>>261053375
I'm referring to steam FA. FAF does all kinds of weird things to balance that I don't understand. So I wont even go there.
In regards to land, they lack a T1 workhorse, their T2 is mediocre to average, their T3 is powerful against other T3 but weak against T2.
Air they have nothing to show except for broadswords, anything you can do with broadswords you can do with T2 gunships so it only shines in 2x and 4v4 games where it devolves into who has the most DPS and armour.
Navy they become unstoppable once they're filled out with shields, battlecruisers, and torpedo boats, but if another faction attacks you before that point the navy will turn into soggy paper because each unit relies on the strengths of the other units.

They just have nothing to take initiative with. They have strong tools but it's all something you'd need an already established lead to utilize.

>>261054062
Yes
And fluffwise they are even more powerfull than they are in the game
Fluff units have 10 times bigger range, air units and bullets are 10 times faster, air units can go into space, nukes are more powerfull, radars have higher range

>>261054391

Delta+ psykers can basically control reality and warp minds.

They don't have any shielding against the psychic stuff.

You really only have to let them loose on the enemy and they'd do the rest.

Would be hard to mop up, but within the abilities of the imperium given the fact that they can deal with warp phenomenon and the enemy can't.

Also, I'm not sure if any Grey Knights are canonically at that level of power, but they are the Imperium's Mary Sue's and are incorruptible, so it seems at least within the realm of possibility.

>>261056665
psykers at that level are killed because they are so unstable and unpredictable

>>261056840

In Dan Abnett's novelization Eisenhorn, they have a whole batch. Meaning they are at least common enough to have whole batches at once even if they are soon after liquidated.

The imerpium field an incredibly small about psykers above delta grade.
These psykers are some of the most important people in the imperium.

Chaos on the other hand has shit loads of psykers above delta grade but majority of them have been pulled into the chaos gods games completely and will spend the rest of their lives in the eye of terror.

Point is, unless someone in 40K verse quickly grasps just how much shit they are in, no one is going to be able to respond in time, and they are sure as shit not going to send a alpha grade psyker over what might be nothing.

>>261057097
He's talking about the ACU.

But I suppose people in the SupCom verse aren't that dumb to have critical areas unshielded from teleportation in a franchise wherer teleportation is possible and known, even if this isn't actually adressed in the main story.

>>261057246
>iirc those were being paraded through the city as part of the triumph of a crusade

Yep. I'm just pointing to the fact that if whole batches exist at any given time, let alone one, they have to be getting round up at some frequency, meaning the probability that they'd have these people available across the whole imperium is high.

In any case, I don't think they'd be necessary for the 40k universe to win. Psionic/warp abilities are just too strong.

The only real problem would be the inevitable corruption of the enemy to Chaos.

The answer is "probabily".
Keep in mind the WAAAGH field is still a field, so they need to be close for them to have effect, a million orks contributes nothing to a fight happening in the other side of the galaxy

The UEF are oppressive power mongers.
The Aeon are fanatical terrorists.
Cybran a best.

>>261058690
The field can reach insane levels though.
It's universally believed by every ork that red ones go faster, so anything an ork makes, no matter where or how many of them are there will be faster.

>>261058790
Cybran are backwards terrorists seeking to undermine the UEF and are therefore helping the Aeon.

>>261058891
We just want freeeeeedoooooom!

>>261058891
That's what the UEF wants you to think.

>>261058873
However when they fight there is already many thousands of them around.

One would need to isolate a single ork and then check the effects vs groups of increasing size

What do orks do with the civilian population of a planet?
They are in it for the WAAAGGGHH!! so what do they do once they killed the enemy and there is no one left to fight.
Do they just leave?

>>261059371
Butchery.

>>261059371
Butchering those helpless civilians is an Ork sport.

>>261059371
They set off in search of more battles.

>>261059371
They mop up any remaining non Orks and loot. Then they make the planet orky or lift off to find another fight if the Warboss says so. This happened in one of the planets in the Cadian system where a Warboss invaded there and immediately left after they won since that battle was just used as a warmup before they headed to the Eye of Terror. Commanders were left confused but the planet remained in human control even though they lost it to the Orks in battle.

>>261059371
Depends on the Orks mood.
sometimes they slaughter everyone.
Sometimes they just leave.
Other times they round everyone up, shout at them then leave.

With 7-8 mexes and being left alone for about an hour they'd already have a Paragon or any other gameender.

A Paragon isn't a game ender. It's shittier than 2 T3 Mexes. It takes way too long to build and explodes like a American after eating tacos, destroying your base and you. It's a expensive suicide weapon that everyone will target.

Every faction is more or less balanced in every tier, give or take some. UEF lacks in some areas, like a strong experimental land unit and their air is nothing special. Fatboys are cool, but they can't hold a candle to any other experimental 1v1. They also don't have a lot of HP, and a strat pass that can takes 2-3 passes to kill the next weakest t4, the monkeylord, will kill a fatboy in one.

They make up for it by tying for the best T3 unit, the Percy (along with the Cybran Brick), having T3 point defense, and Battlecruisers/Atlantis.

I've only seen gameplay footage from the series. Seemed fun, and I'd like to try it.

Though, it's a nice introduction to the series. Better start on the low note, so FA is even better.

>>261075005
It removed everything unique to the series and basically became a poor StarCraft clone.

>>261075603
Hmmm... Less units, more focus on units powers and streamlining resources? That's the only thing I'm gathering from that pic.

The thing is, a LONG time ago, I used to play this game called Warwind 2. It was quite strange at the time when compared to Age of Empires for intance since it featured assymetrical gameplay for all factions. SupCom gave me that vibe, and I thought "heck, why not?"

Btw: Warwind was kind of the grandfather of starcraft. And few others too. Maybe I'm missing a title or two before it, but it was the first strategy game I saw that featured assymetrical gameplay between factions.

>>261076165
A very poor starcraft clone

>>261076165
Figured as much.
What about story? Is it still redeemable? I only remember the "It's time for a grenade!" line rom the short time I tried it.

>>261076452
I honestly never played the SupCom2 campaign so I can't tell you. I doubt you'd miss much.

>>261076452
I've copied the following from a couple of posts long ago:


Yes it was way faster but the campaign is literally the equivalent of Past Sins.
It's like they didn't even played the first game
Also the experimentals are shit.
I mean in the second one a 20 or so units could take one out. In the first one they raped a medium sized army. Unless they had air units...the air units kinda raped everything about the experimentals except the UEF submarine/airbase

While it is faster paced it also loses a lot of the strategy. And there are barely units in it.
And the factions don't even resemble the originals.

_____
SC/FA did not have a FUCKING T-REX that takes forever to go down. Literally. I had a dozen or two of Soul Rippers blasting at it and it still managed to cross the entire map to my base.

Also, I left out a lot of plot holes, "relevant" details that don't get mentioned ever again or even fail to be relevant, throwaway characters that we're supposed to care about somehow, no QAI, McGuffins everywhere, oh and best of all is one Cybran mission that is completely detached from the main plot. And by completely I mean completely. It goes something like this.

>Ivan teleports in
>Ivan wrecks a base run by a rogue AI that spams engineers and turrets
>Ivan teleports out
>This is never mentioned again.

Really, it's bad. Even considering that original SC had an excuse plot, it was still miles ahead of this pile of shit.

It's great because even in pub games it's easy to coordinate players but it's got absolutely no variety. Back techs/econs, front rushes mid and soaks up as much wreck as it can while buying time for back, side helps front take mid and goes navy. Beach side spams navy and tries to keep the other team busy so they can't put everything on mid. Game comes down to who can feed the most mass to the back player, who in turn rapes the game with T3 air.

>>261043621
And supcom units can do the same thing to hostile machines, the only thing that's not capturable are the ACU's because there's a person inside

>>261078389
The side players can use quite different strategies, fighting navy with air and hover tanks is quite possible and drops is a fun tactic that can be used in a variety of ways.

If mid survive the early game the player can do whatever, so there's some variety there to.

>>261078348
I know the game is still active I am just saying that you have less tournaments that pros actually attend and shit

>>261078348
There's enough players on Steam to call the game alive there too.

Universe at War could be fucking amazing but it's just full of massively wasted potential because Microsoft fucked the Petroglyph over, I enjoyed the game when I played it through but it was just painful to see what we could have with more polish and without Microsoft.

And when you count TA as being far future techwise from SC in the same timeline, they skipped the need for gates to begin with and now just teleport from planet to planet directly

They also invented weapons where the only viable counter is to have A SHITTON of units, because it basically works like a necron gauss cannon, except it scores critical hits every time and dissolves anything it touches and anything that is connected to that thing it touches and turns int into pure energy. It's like a quantum sized mechanical nano virus that literally turns you into a bomb that then explodes. The TA manual went to great length to describe how it works and why nothing can defend against it, no shield, no armor, nothing. As I was saying, the only viable counter is to have so many units that you can overwhelm them because individual losses mean nothing. Which btw is the story explanation of why TA tech evolved into mass producing relatively simple units ( in terms of functionality ) instead of making "that one unit that kills everything"

>>261054062
Yes

It's the direct result of having mastered energy / mass conversions, they literally turn trees into tanks

Another thing to note is that they mastered wireless energy AND EVEN MATTER teleporters

As in, none of the units need a power supply, none of the building units need a place to store building materials, they just beam both across the landscape as needed

In fact, tanks don't even have ammo in them that you can tamper, they manufacture the rounds they fire prior to shooting directly, much more efficient, and it means that per size wise ( considering the vehicles also don't need to reserve space to keeping living things inside alive ), TA/SC vehicles are armored as fuck, as the entire thing is basically a gun ( or severals ) and then layers of shield and armor. Obviously need no fuel tank too

>>261079669
>they skipped the need for gates to begin with and now just teleport from planet to planet directly

Actually they still use gates, but they are on the planet itself instead of orbit, they also take a shit ton of energy to use, so thats why only commanders are send through them.

I used to spend loads of time in the GPG forums, and one of the devs compiled a whole shitload of info on the universe and they were going to publish this for fans, but it never came to fruition. I'd love to know more about the supcom universe.

>>261023614

Uhh, what is that unit on the far right? I played SupCom FA but for the life of me I can't remember it.

It's a numbers game

There are a LOT of orks and I mean this even by 40k standards. If every single ork in the galaxy would intentionally wish for the same thing to happen ( an event that is more unlikely than the 40k universum spontanously turning into a giant marshmallow ), that thing would propably happen. Doesn't matter what the thing actually is

>>261024340
Ships of the Imperium are so large that they have stone interiors. There's a 40k ship that's just a gun. You think those torpedoes that just hit your hull were duds? Nope, there's now 200 Space Marines on your ship.

>>261080373
But why do the planes have fuel then? The CZAR is the only flying unit that can fly for forever.

I wonder how this remake of SupCom 2 is heading along.

>>261052268

I got it from a Polish site which was giving out codes for the game on Steam.

>>261081110
Seraphim experimental, the Ythotha. Also known as The Chicken.

>Infinite mass / energy
>Not a game ender

You have a paragon, you build a Salvation in 10 seconds and THAT one is a legit game ender, then you just build 20 of them

>>261081323
Remake?

>>261024370
"Lord General, they have 18m walkers on the planet!"
"Alert the Inquisition and launch one virus bomb."
And then every single biological thing on the planet was eaten by a virus and the atmosphere was filled with methane. A single lance battery ignited the gas, burning off the atmosphere and leaving the planet nothing but a charred corpse.

When you're facing an enemy that uses the destruction of a planet both offensively and defensively you're pretty fucked.

Don't forget that the SupCom forces have no idea what the warp is or how to deal with it.

>>261081610
>uses the destruction of a planet both offensively and defensively

So what enemy is this? Because the Imperium doesn't use Exterminatus left and right like you are implying

>>261081448
>you build a Salvation in 10 seconds
Yeah, with like 800 engineers.

>>261025513
A shield isn't going to protect jack shit from the planet's atmosphere being immolated or it being turned molten.

>>261081191
SC is less advanced than TA

All TA flying units can fly forever

>>261082014
You have a paragon

There's no excuse

You have INFINITE MASS AND ENERGY

The only thing limiting you at this point is build power, which you should have several factories working on increasing that for you at this point

>>261072127
There are multiple methods of exterminatus. One's a torpedo that drills through the crust and causes massive fault activity. One's a virus that's released into the upper atmosphere and devours all biological material. One's just getting the fleet to shoot their lance batteries at the planet for a few hours until everything's dead.

>>261082331
Atleast two of those three can be dealt with conceivably by SC tech, shields for the lances and not giving a fuck for the virus respectively. SC units are known to fight on airless moons with no atmosphere, so I doubt not having vegetation slows them down

>>261082320
I'm not the anon arguing that the Paragon is not a game ender. I agree, but it's probably the worst game ender together with the Yolona Oss. Unless you play 2x, but then balance doesn't really apply anymore.

>>261082331
>>261082658
But who cares about a burnt out destroyed planet? The SupCom army was build from local resources so they lost nothing and I guess the guys who blew up the planet doesn't care because why would they blow up the planet if they did?

>>261082674
It depends how you use it, like all other game enders, it's worthless if you have an enemy that is roughly equal in skill than you and doesn't make any obvious mistakes

The game is balanced in a way that if you go for any of the game enders, you'll be losing out on so much energy and mass constructing it, that your opponent, if he would take the same energy and mass and make an asssault force with it, he could propably kill you and your base twice over

>>261079669
I have the TA Manual right in front of me and there is no reference to any nano mechanical virus. Where are you getting this from?

>>261082908
Well, you build game enders when you can't break your enemy and he can't break you. The problem with the Paragon is that when you are 75% done his Salvation/Mavor/Scathis/whatever will be finished and you've lost. The Paragon is worthless as a game ender unless your opponent is horribly bad or you're way better than him and if you are there's no reason to build a Paragon.

>>261082848
Please don't take this in the wrong way 40k buddies, but 40k fans tend to overvalue the strategic value of an exterminatus

Their argument tends to stop at "it's a weapon, it makes planets go boom, end of discussion", but they fail to see the implications here. Analogous to nukes on current day earth, most of the time you typically want to do something with the planet you're attacking ( or defending ), and I know that the typical grimdark future of the 40k universe makes it so that there's lots of fluff that describes how the only way you can deal with a menace like a tyranid infestation is to just render the planet inhabitable

But not only is the situation different here, afterall you can't just blow up EVERY planet in the galaxy, it also is something that happens less frequently than the fluff wants us to believe. I was always under the impression that codex entries and other lore is mostly written from an in-universe perspective and thus is mostly propaganda. This would explain why the MUHREENS are "da bes" in the marines codex and one of them basically kills like 200 nids in a single hour with no weapon, and then you get to the ork codex, or eldar codex and suddenly the very same marine ( not really the same, but you get what I mean ) is being killed hundreds of times with plain old shooting them with regular weapons. In short, I believe that much of 40k fluff is pretty unreliable when it comes to actual facts as they're mostly propaganda for whatever leading faction they're adressed to, afterall, the entire galaxy is at war, so propaganda would have to happen to some degree, and 40k isn't exactly subtle with well, anything. Either way, an exterminatus is a pretty extreme measure and can strategically and logically only be employed sparringly.

>>261083202
It's the D-GUN that commanders are armed with, one of the lost tech level 10 technologies. It kills all units in one shot, period. Gameplay wise it does like 999,999,999,999,999,999 damage or so

>>261083836
The person building a game ender will inevitably have a reduced production, meaning you will be able to take grounds, secure mex spots and if you're not doing things wrong, you should own pretty much the entire map before he even finishes his game ender. At this point you can produce a force with such speed that you can overwhelm his defenses

>>261084175
If you have an advantage but can't finish your opponent of because of reasons the right decision might be a game ender (unless another couple of Megaliths will do the job), you will hopefully be done before he can catch up to you. The difference between a couple of Megaliths and a Scathis is that the Megaliths have to walk to the enemies base and can then be targeted by nukes, large amounts of bombers, large navys/defending t4 and other crap.

>>261084002
Not to mention the Core plan if they lost the war was to blow up the whole galaxy, leaving a single Commander to rebuild everything

How about we all just use the BlackOps mod? Yeah?

>>261085135
Damn. That's harsh.

>>261086124

The what now?

The BlackOps mod from FAF.
