This thread has been linked to the game 'Homeworld'.
Anyone getting this? I've had it on pre-order from Amazon for a while, and they shipped it this morning. The original game was outstanding, and the Cataclysm standalone was very enjoyable. The shots of this game look awesome, and from what I hear, much of the basic gameplay remains unchanged, which is good, because it rocked.

That is cool, but H2 excels in waaaay more areas.
The awesome thing I liked about the original was the fact that you could salvage without limit, and so continue to pilfer ships from the enemy long after you've reached your unit cap.
I was playing the first Homeworld earlier, and it really is terrible in comparison. Not a bad game in its own right, but H2 is just beautiful, incredibly intuitive and far more busy than the first ever dreamed of being.

Oh that's easy.
On level four, destroy two of the hyperspace inhibitors, and hang around collecting the resources. Destroy any carriers or other forces nearby and just keep hanging around, building up your fleet with masses of bombers and whatever frigates you fancy.
Eventually that fleet of missile frigates will appear. As soon as you see them, destroy the third hyperspace inhibitor, and you'll jump to the other end of the map, leaving the missile frigate fleet down the other end having to make their way back. Launch a full on offensive with your bombers and frigates directly at the space station, destroy it and move on to defeat the remaining forces in the area.
Then just collect resources and keep an eye on the large map, which will track the "remaining forces" for you. By the time they arrive, you should be able to spank them with superior firepower.
Simple.
