Interested in a Homeworld Mod?

Technically the acolyte fighter is a bentusi design with Somtaaw weaponry so that one could also be regarded as a bentusi ship, there's also the bentusi cargo barge and trade station.


The Bentusi is really a paradox, from what I've been able to piece together they disarmed every ship around the time the higarans where forced into exile, but in both HW 1 and cataclysm they happely use their tripple rapid fire ion cannons

I think Bentus is the largest ship I've seen in homeworld, I'm not sertain about the T-mat mothership (seen in the end of homeworld)or Naggarok (cataclysm) but my guess is that they're both about half the size of Bentus

I think the only ship larger than bentus is the progenitor mothership, but no it's a wreck and you won't see it intact. Many of the progenitor ships and technologies could be included as unique techs though.

I really find cataclysm ships to be a break from normal homeworld ships, they're too versatile, it's not like in homeworld where you can wreck a heavycruiser with a formation of bombers, the Somtaaw dreadnought is really the ultimate ship in every way, and really find that irritating.

Indeed ion cannons is a videly used weapon in homeworld I don't even want to try and find all the ships that use them, but I think all factions in HW 1 and Cataclysm use them.
I really find it strange though that the vaygr don't have any ships using them. After all they got hold of a lot of the old taiidan empire.
