Let's Play Star Trek Armada 2 - Mission 2 - Lifelines

I find it rather interesting you talk about the Defiant mines but never mention the potential inspiration for the weapon, in Call to Arms where the Defiant was used to lay the minefield at the wormhole to the Gamma Quadrant.

Love all these "Let's Play" for the various ST games. Armada II is right behind Final Unity as far as favourite Trek games - ever got into Star Trek Online?

@hmbnimbus I've never played it. I've seen video of it but I tend to avoid MMO's as I don't really have the time to dedicate to them. It looks....not awful...but not sure how much I like the way that they've messed around with the races

[hmbnimbus]

@Boomer2k6 Well, as MMOs go, it probably is the easiest to level up and get high-end gear etc. But then again, I am a bummy student... so... *ahem*

You should do Legacy, Conquest or Dominion Wars for your next play through, that'd test anyone's patience and sanity ;) Looking forward to the next Armada II episode.

@hmbnimbus I've got Dominion Wars somewhere. Never played through it and probably never will :)

@Boomer2k6

You should! The music is nice on the game, and it gives the feeling that you're playing an episode between the ds9 episodes. The actors have provided their voices as wel so that's nice. The problem is, to make it work on "newer" pc's. (graphic card can be a problem to make it work)

I like how you zoomed in on the action at the end. It may be trickier to play that way, but a let's play is just more fun to watch up close.

@Nyst2 Thanks, i will try and keep it up but things do start getting hectic...attacking a Stationary target though I should be able to keep it up
