All Motherships in SW3! **Spoil**

[Nanaki]

How about other pilots? whereelse I cud look for them?

Each of the mission lines comes with their own pilots. You will always get the Hero (of course), Ternie, Greyhair, and that technician you rescue from the pirate ruins. Only the other two pilots are determined by your choices.

A fun fact regarding this game is that, if a ship has a special icon, they are an obtainable pilot. The only exception to this are many of the old Star Wolves veterans (Phantom, Heretic, Corsair, etc) whom appear in the story, have unique icons yet do not join your team.

Do I still have to fight of the MK2 in Supply ship?

Yeah, unless you want to fight endlessly respawning MSF forces. Its a hideously difficult mission considering that you are on a timer, you have to destroy the MK2 before it blows your supply ship to kingdom come (which it will, considering the supply ship is unarmed and has no modules)...

The stats on Lion Mk2 so overpowered compared to other. DO other questline doest not seem to worth doing at all?

Depends on what you want or need... The NESF campaign gives you bucketloads of credits and free ships compared to the Alex/MSF line, for example. I think one NESF mission gave you far more credits (1750000) than I got the entire campaign as MSF or Alex.

Nanaki,

I am concerned. When will I meet the "that technician you rescue from the pirate ruins". I am in crossroads, meaning the chapter when I should decide what factions I will work for. I still have 3 pilots

Got one thing wrong... the Manticore starts with 5000 Shields, not 4000, which makes it marginally better than the prototype Lion that Viper gives you

Also going through the files, it seems like the Mass production MK2 Lion was originally supposed to have 14000 health, 5000 shields, so it apparently got a nerf sometime in development...

By comparison, the Manticore that SAM pilots has 30000 health, 15000 shields, the Moskow (Adm Trump's ship) has 10000 health, 5000 shields, the Invincible (That admiral that fights Trump late in the game) has 15000 health, 10000 shields

You get Kalem at the very end of the game... when you get your final mothership

Well if we are talking about siding with the admiral against Viper, I just docked the supply ship to the base, equpped it and then it was easy to kill the Lion Prototype as docking recharges your shileds.

I just got to that part on my second playthrough, just ended up blasting the Lion MK2 and Viper so hard with my fighters that the hostile MSF forces almost immediately go neutral =P

Could you guys post some pictures/screenshots of all the ms in the game? I would also appreciate detailed specs of all the ms (speed and manoeuvrability included). Also the positions of the turrets and main calibre guns were nice (could be done with screenshots). Thanks in advance.
