"Okay, so there's this island in the pacific that's filled with hostile bugs. We'll roll our Ticonderoga up to it, lob a few Tomahawks...what's that? You traded all our Tomahawks for booze? Sigh, fine...We'll just load up our Huey Gunship then, make a few rocket runs...You traded away our rockets too? Ungh. Well, we can still rip 'em up with the miniguns...unless you put the booze in the ammo drums. Looks like we'll have to send the new guy in on foot to deal with it alone. He can reload guns with his MIND though, so he'll be alright."
I'm pretty sure the bio-things are getting carriers for free. I'm not seeing them build any capital pads, anyway, their face-removing capitals seem to spawn out of nowhere. I think it's when they spore a cruiser,it turns into a carrier...somehow...
Oh, darn, I failed that mission. Guess I should reequip and try a different tactic...oh, wait, I'm out of lives, guess I have to sit on my thumb for an hour while they regenerate.
Neat game, but probably a bit too easy. Day 81, and my base has been damaged *once*. The explosives and rage are completely redundant, the Remmington and M4 are all you need.
Neither do we! Great theory though.
