Quote:When you're escorting those transports, you can shoot out all the cargo pods, take the Artifacts for yourself and sell them on Manhattan later. Similarly, in the first mission you can kill the non-leader transport and take the cargo without failing the mission or going hostile. The Rogues get blamed. tongue.gif
It's also possible to take out nearly all the wingmen that appear during the missions except for the leaders who are invincible. It is also possible to destroy the two DSE transports that appear during Mission 2's artifact scanning, and even the artifact smuggler himself after the objective changes to move to Pueblo Station. Becoming hostile with the LN also lets you destroy the Battleship Unity in Mission 2 and the LNS-Harmony outside Willard (which are magically replaced in no time.)
It's amazing how much friendly fire you can get away with in the campaign >.>
