Title: Extinction
Post by: fetid_breath on April 25, 2005, 09:38:24 pm
Is it possible to destroy an entire alien race? Isn't there a way to entirely destory the Ilwrath and Thraddash?

Also, I've been destroying VUX for RUs. Do the VUX ever run out of ships?

*Moderatley Spoilery, but you asked about it.

Some ingame events allow you to be responsible for the extinction of some species, should you choose to. However, you cannot wipe out an entire race by killing off their ships. Each homeworld has an ifinite amount of ships anyway, so it's not even technically possible.

Since you can't beat a homeworld defense fleet, you actually *do* have to take the way around it (if you're thinking of what I'm thinking of) -- it's misleading to say you "almost have to" beat the defense fleet, because you *can't*.

You have to defeat an infinite fleet at least four times in the game ( one is optional ). And by "defeat" I don't mean destroying all enemy's ships in a combat ( maybe some ).

*Spoiler*


You have to send the Ilwraths anyway because there is a fleet guarding the chmmr homeworld.
