WYRDYSM GAMES

I've been wanting to do a Nayaga Encounter. Basically a Terran Fleet versus Nayaga Ship 3 and some allies. Been wondering what the fleets should be. So far:

Terran Dreadnaugh: A Mighty Terran ship, that on it's own can beat the crap out of Nayaga ship 3.

Major Hong's Ship: Nuff Said

Assorted Terran ships: Not sure what to put here. Want 1 Battleship, 3 Destroyers, and 3-5 Patrol Boats.

Task force 16: 1-2 Destoryers, and 3-4 Patrol boats. Thinking of Hesitas, Sinopes, Zelus, and maybe a Thetis.

Of course for allien forces will be a slighly tweaked Nayagaship 3, some aliens, and some special alien ships that I will keep secret for now.

Any ideas for Terran fleet Composition?

Dreadnought, Hong, 1 Arcas, 1 Hestia, 1 Oenone, 1 Helios, and then 2 Aedon, 2 Proteus, , 1 Thetis.

You've got all sorts of range, and a nice variety for tactics.

Task Force 16 seems to be hit and run stuff, so I'd do Zelus, Sinopes, and a Hestia.

First version

I'll spice up the terrain a bit later, just wanting to know if it's too hard. Everything is official, except the Terran Dreadnaught, Nayaga Ship 3X (You should see the differences from Nayaga 3) and those two special alien ships.

Well, it is indeed a bit too hard. Nagayaship 3 has a bit too much health. Maybe player ships shouldn't be spawned all at once so they won't be all destroyed when it's need to flank the mothership. What about further modifying Nagayaship 3 so that first you need to make a flanking attack, but the ship must be finished off by attacking it from the front.

I really didn't find it difficult at all... the dreadnought was so ludicriously overpowered that all I really had to do was to use my other ships to destroy Nagaya's escorts, then I was home free. as Nagaya then found it impossible to damage the dreadnough. From there, I made codmined use of the dread's Dieterling and Tellars... eventually Nagaya's ship exploded... :twisted:

What you probably should have done was replace the overpowered Nagaya's flagship in this with the regular Nagaya flagship, and replace the Terran dreadnough with a Hecate. You could up the difficulty from there a bit by making some of Nagaya's escorts jump in on your flanks, or reduce the number of ships avaliable to you and TF 16...

Nerfed the Dreadnaught and Nayaga ship 3. Your forces come in waves, TS 16 is much smaller also. Also, the enemies jump from all over the place, and you don't get the Dreadnaught until AFTER Nayaga appears.

I could swear that only made the mission even easier... The dreadnought still single handedly shit-kicks Nagaya's flagship, and now the other enemies aren't concentrating their firepower, which lets me destroy them with far fewer losses... I really think you should use the canon Nagaya's ship, a Heacate and possibly less player ships... I really do...

Now this thing is even more 1on1 "Terran Supership vs Nagayaship 3" where the enemy just retreats into a corner and you have to rely on railguns to wear the enemy down. SLOWLY.

Removing the nanomatrix from the Terran Dreadnought would go a long way towards evening the odds, IMO.

Go here

Uploaded the third version, Terran Dreadnaught is no longer invincible, and Nayaga ship 3 is more suseptable from rear attacks. Enemies try to ambush you more, so be careful. Also, I replaced a Protheus with a Zelus.

For the last time, forget the dreadnought! Just replace it with a Hecate and make Nagaya's ship the same as it is in Mission 8 (Stronghold), ok?

I liek the dreadnought though >_>

4th version uploaded

No dreadnaught, Nayaga is stock. Mission takes a shitload longer now >_>

Ah! Now that's much better! All you need to do now is fine-tune the difficulty... Maybe make 'easy' 'medium' and 'hard' versions...
