Obtaining The Voinian Dreadnought

Is it even possible to get the Dreadnought, cuz i got the Voinian crusier, but I want more firepower!!! If not, is there a plug-in?

Its practically impossible to get it in the normal game unless you abort the mission "Destroy Voinin Dreadnought," disable and board it with the most crew-heavy ship you can get, and hope that you will capture it against insane odds. Even then, since its enhanced turrets and turreted rockets do not have accompanying outfit resources, sooner or later you will take off and find that the weapons are not present.

There are plenty of cheat plugs that let you get it, but quite frankly flying it makes the game a bit easy--and the ship is just boring to fly, given that its slower than flowing molasses.

How insane would it be? Would it be difficult to get even with a UE Cruiser (which has next most crew after the Voinian one). Yes, it makes the game too easy. Then again, the same can be said about the Voinian Cruiser in the Crescent after it gets max turrets, both armors, and speed upgrades. Flowing molasses... hahaha! Posted Image Actually, while it has slower speed, it accelerates faster than one. Shayborg describes this as "surprising" in his guide. And once it gets all speed upgrades, its accepatable (even if still very slow).

I am eager to try to ansver mission questions

Has any one ever done it? If so, how many turrets can it have?

How many turrets can it have?

Anyone have good name for my Dreadnaught if/when I get it?

Well, it is really big, you should call it something cool like "The Fire Eagle" or the "Direspear" or mabey the something crasy like "The Crimson Sky"

I know rhyming and synonyming, but what are antonyming and definonyming?

------------------

antonyming - Just like synonyming, but in reverse. ๐Ÿ™‚ (White, black. Up, down. Etc.)

definonyming - Funny way to say defining that matches the rest of the sentence.

If you register your name, you will be able to simply edit your posts rather than posting twice for corrections. If you want to know how to do this, just ask.

My dear general, the Voinian Dreadnought has 2000 crew as opposed to the UE cruiser with 600. if that isnt insane odds i dunno what is.

Sure, the odds are insane! That's why I'm trying for it! I'll let you guys know if I ever get it. It might take a while because I keep getting sidetracked and I have to start a new game where it is possible to do the Dreadnaught mission string(All my other games have completed either the UE or Voinian missions already)

I've capured it onece...It took some 50 tries but it is doable. And also I was greatly grieved to loose my super-weapons when I bought an IFF unit and an afterburner. (these Days I've modified the program to let you have such delicious weapons after finishing the proper strings).

Oh the dreadnaught has 12 slots. Gee...I wonder what Uber-Slow ship the Voinians will develop next ๐Ÿ˜‰

How did you modify the program to let you keep the weapon? Did you modify the data files or did you do a plug? I would like that too!Mmm... 10 fighters, Rockets that launch three at a time, and Enchanched Neutron Turrets! The next uber-slow ship they come next with is Super-Dreadnought, which is a souped-upp version of the normal one. It comes with 30 speed instead of 60, 60 accel instead of 110, and same 30 degrees turning.

I'd say if any of you get the bloody thing, call it the "Dread-not", cuz they can just MP you sitting still...

Or they could get the Ramming Strategy program... oh, wait, wrong plug. (That happens when you switch between three or four every day...)
