Terran Schematics

[Mortimer909]

Can anyone tell me what downloading the weapons and defense schematics actually does? basically i want to know to get hold of the terran equipment. Its clearly devastating.

Hint: dont sneak up on the Terran odin and scan it. Curiosity of this manner often results in fatality.

[Carlo the Curious]

It means you see 'Hammerhead missile' instead of 'Unknown object'. That's it.

[Mortimer909]

That is rubbish. Then why does the message continue to reappear?

I can't believe that. Surely there is a way to get your hands on those white. kyon-like beam wepaons that the terran have.....?

[X-Tie]

Are all Terran ships uncappable? And those energy beams thus unobtainable? Because I'd sure like to fly one of em M3s there!

What about Yaki ships, you can cap em but are they any good? Stats look decent...

[JIM COLDHAM]

I'll have to give it a try when i get a chance, see if capping is possible. I thought that in the Plot Missions that when the Terrans appear, i could have sworn that they were using PPC's on their carriers. Correct me if im wrong, but if i am correct, then how come the Terrans are using PPC's when these were developed by the Argon and therefore the Terrans would have no knowledge of them.
If im wrong then i will shut up now.

[Carlo the Curious]

They're not. Terran ships use, um, EMP cannons I think it is.

I'm pretty sure Terran ships are uncappable in vanilla.

Not even some form of ship to build at the PHQ? well, guess that explains the price.

And:

- When u push details on one of there ships they computer girl gives a discription.
- Weapon names are now ''Beta Electro magenic pulse cannon'' not uknown object

And about the capping no u cant cap them i know for sure. Can u have them? Officialy no u cant but with stevio's fabs u can buy them.
As u can see i own about 2 odin's now (yes i paid for them big time).
Advice on the terran ships... They are very very strong in shielding and weaponry but the energy of the generators drops down very fast.
When i shoot full power @ a xenon K it die's very fast but the energy is 0 when it dies.

They are emp guns, not kyons. (electro magnetic plasma guns, not EM pulse)

if you like those ships get the xtended mod. you can use all of them in that, and they are awesome.

they also have point to point jump drives.... no need for gates.

[Yellowman]

Yeah whatever about the names bro didnt know for sure...

And with stevio's schipyard script they work fine also.

You can get them. All you have to do is kick their butts and pick them up.

[pjknibbs]

I believe there may be options to buy and/or fly Terran ships if you install the XTM mod, but you'd have to start a new game.

My Xtended mod does not allow for or show ANY Terran Capital ships - or any other races capitol ships as being Electromagnetic pulse capable, even though same lasers are available via cheat in the "wares" list. All I'm running is LV Cheats and Xtended.
