Has anyone played this game? It's a space RTS. It's set in 3D, and you can tell the ships to move up and down throughout the map, and you won't see your smallest units just standing there trading shots. You'll see them dogfighting with all the other fighters in their way, and dodging turrets from capital ships. If you've played this game, or are interested in it, you should give it another whirl or if you're still playing this game, give your opinion. So whaddya think?

I've only ever played Homeworld 2, and I love it! I don't own the game, though. My friend does. .....Even though I've probably played it more than he has. When he got it, his computer didn't have the right....stuff....to play the game. Eventually, he bought a new computer, but he couldn't play past level 1. The game just wouldn't let him. It's weird, because our computers are basically the same, and I've never had any problems with the game.
I'm going to have to borrow Homeworld 2 when he gets back from vacation.

Well, I was actually talking about Homeworld 2, but if anyone has played part one, it's also good, as we can understand the whole story. Anyway, I've only played a demo, but my mom ordered the full version. Oh, am I waiting to build myself 3 Battlecruisers and wreak havoc on my enemy. 3 is the maximum number for Battlecruisers, no matter what.

...3? Are you sure? I know I've had more battlecruisers than that.

That's what it said on a FAQ I read.

Well...it lied. I borrowed the game from my friend,who I think is a member here now, and I made FOUR battlecruisers. I had the unit cap on high, though.

Heh. Well, do you have a picture of the Battlecruiser? I'd like to see how cool and ginormous it is.

Whose battlecruiser? Vagyr or Hiigaran? They're both really awesome! I like the way the Hiigaran battlecruiser looks more than the Vayger's, though. They aren't as big as you might think, however. I would say that they are the third largest capital ship. In size, the capital ships go in this order: 1. Flagship/Mothership 2. Shipyard 3. Battlecruiser 4. Carrier (Even though they aren't much bigger than the BC) 5. Destroyer Hiigaran Vayger

Awesome! I can't wait to come home from my vacation and use them! I shall destroy everyone! Wahahahahahaha... Ahem. They look cool and I didn't know they were that "small". But they are the most heavily armored, right?

Ummm.....no. I'd say the strength of the armor goes in the same order that size does. You CAN upgrade the BC's armor, along with any other ship. You can also upgrade speed.

Well, what is your favorite tactic after you've unlocked all the units?

I make as many of each unit as possible, send them after the enemy, and watch them get destroyed! It's so fun to watch the battlecruisers blasting the frail little carriers all over the place! And I love it when the enemy flagship tries to get away using hyperspace, but they have already taken to much damage, and all that comes out of the hyperspace gate is a pile of junk!

That happened to one of my carriers in the demo I played. I told it to use hyperspace and escape, but it was destroyed before it could completely gate out. Oh, yeah. What's the name of the Vaygr mothership?

Uh....Actually, now that I think about it, It doesn't have a name.....
I also like to send one battlecruiser and make it hyperspace near a carrier/shipyard/flagship, lead all of the ships defending it far away, and hyperspace back to the capital ship and blow it bits!

I just re-read that FAQ, and it said that the Battlecruiser had more HP than the mothership. And, what's the capacity in the hangar for ships in the Battlecruiser? Also, what's the Shipyard look like?
