Thats one freaky looking alien City/Weapon platform .

I just figured out what was missing form your pics: Damaged, retreating ships and burning hulks.
The battles seem too clean, with no rubble.
Maybe some smoldering bunkers, or burnt out tanks, or a crashed fighter sticking out of a hill.

PS: How can you take over a gas giant planet with tanks?
It's probably not important enough to redo all your troop images, but just something amusing to think about.

Heys, cool pictures!

"How can you take over a gas giant planet with tanks?"

-I believe that they can attach together and use hovering to maneuver.(Terran_Portrait_TroopLarge)

Thnaks guys for the compliments

As for the tanks on a gas giant well what da heck I don't know SJ I might as well go with the hovering thing.

And i guess the battles can be seen as the start of the battle. I'm not good enough yet to for the smoldering burned hulks. But i'll keep that in mind for the next pics

BTW here is the next pic. This scene shows what started the war between the "Vandron" and the "yet be named anyone have any ideas"
I guess it's called the ambush. SJ tried to get your wormhole idea in the one.

Note to self: leave standing orders for shields to be raised before useing warppoints.

Nice warppoint image.

I must say, I'm stunned at the reaction time of those aliens! Opening fire before the vandron ship has travelled its own length (to emerge from the wormhole)
Either that, or there's some conspicuous warppoint opening event before ships enter.

yeah i guess i was thinking something like the deep space 9 wormhole where you know something is coming through before it actually appears. Also, i figure since it was an ambush the bad guys might have had some idea of when the dread was coming.
