Is Story different with the 4.84 mod on? - itsryan - 06-07-2008
The story line is the same its just that its a bit hard because of the AI, I believe.

' Wrote:The basic storyline is exactly the same, but things are different to some extent. (ie you can't survive against capships. HINT: Fly madly in circles and wait for Juni to finish them off. Takes ages, but she's invul.)
Trick is HIDE. Behind asteroids if there, or if you manage to get a cap downed, you can use its wreckage as well.

yes when there was that nomad BS at the nomad jump gate i didn't have many bots or bats so i couldn't go against it, i hide behind the jump gate while they all finished it then came out at the last second and destroyed it lol:D.

Juni isn't entirely invulnerable. i am stuck on the mission where you have to escort those trains after busting shawn ashcroft... I can't kill them with the stuff I have and the NPC enemies manage to blow up the 2 trains and Juni quite quickly... maybe its just me...

oh yeh i had problems with that mission the first time i did it, just keep shooting and when your shield or hull is low move away from the fight and abit into the cloud, then when your shield is back up or you've used your bots or bats move back in, then keep doing that for as many times as you need to.

It's bloody Impossible with the Discovery Mod!!
Using the engage-retreat tactic a 40K mission can take up to an hour presuming you don't get killed.
All the fighters are in the Millions price range and i'm expected to be able to kill a Rheinland fleet with a Bretonia light fighter!!:angry:

That is why I cheat to beat SP.

' Wrote:It's bloody Impossible with the Discovery Mod!!Trick is to let the dudes in Daggers take care of everything. Using a heavy fighter might be a better choice, due to the torpedoes which can be used, along with patience, skill, and timing, to kill gunboats and cruisers, as well as fighters. Yes, they are very useful against fighters, with the exception of Nomad fighters. Only problem is when you fire one at the same moment that your opponent drops a mine, which results in the sudden destruction of both of your fighters.

I got past the Rheinland part eventually due to staying out of harms way waitng for Juni & Dagger-1 to kill everyone.
I'll have finished the game again before I can afford a new ship though!
I've put hours in for $140K + a cavalier (bretonia LF)!!
If only I could transfer some of my money to the SP character!
Yeah that Cruiser thing is annoying as hell.:laugh:

Well, I guess in the discovery story line, you gotta make more money before going through the campaign missions. Otherwise you'll end up like me, with a Cavalier in the mission to rescue president Jacobi :(
