well, I played the Antarctica mission recently, and no matter how I tried, it was Impossible to kill.

My equipment being a Nephren X1, +100 ares positron beam, and a Fusionfire.
I also had 6x Hevy Ithalium armor. I don't know about you, but in my mind that should be enough to destroy a CSC.

I think dropping the armor of a CSC a bit would be nice. I mean, they hardly ever fight the Ares, anyway.


on a side note, I was thinking about an extension called "the Hand of Fate"
with some CSC's. namely the Oceania, the Eastasia, and the Eurasia.
If Transcendence was made in 3D, I would die of Happiness.

If you feel this was hard now. The ship had NAMI Capital weapons that were so powerful they vaporized anything around them. And you got hit by those things 30-50 times. :P It has been toned down a lot. Have you tried using mines or such? Perhaps wingmen to make it eiaser?

Or say "Yes, he sent me to destroy you" then "I won't try to stop you" Then sit back and watch the fireworks.

@Ttech I cannot possibly Imagine anything more difficult.

@Drako Yes, but that's no fun. I want to destroy the Antarctica, Darn it.

Use G.O.D mod, spawn 10 enemy ICS's. Then deactivate your shield and change your armor to Ultra light titanium armor. Then deactivate your weapon. I guarantee that you will lose.

I use the same strategy that I use to farm Ventari to kill the Antarctica. The last time I did it, I had some pretty nice armor and mostly thermo weapons. I don't remember too clearly. Either thermo cannon or fusionfire and piles of gotha missiles. I also remember having to repair armor during the fight a few times. Gotta love armor repair kits. :D

The AI tends to not use non-tracking missiles out to their full range so just sitting near max range of a howitzer, starcannon, or lancer should make your fight just with the gunships that come after you. Then just kill the thing. Bushido Thermocannons should have enough range as well if you've got enough ammo. Gothas and Ares nukes legitimately outrange it if you want to fight in safety but feel guilty about exploiting the poor AI.
