hello it's Ricardo and welcome back to Battlestar Galactica
deadlock I'm about to engage on tutorial mission to subtitle mission to Caesar's
jump our space station on mobile ship yeah the Daedalus all the way to PI Khan
and to engage any threat that's actually happening there so quite simple you
select the base you move to where you want to go you say jump you say do you
really want to jump yes I really want to jump now this screen here is letting you
place your units as you jump in where you want to place them so you can move
the actual station around the ships up down left and right remember in two to
three dimensions and then here we are we're gonna jump the Athena battle star
the Daedalus station up complete and our to mount of course Karen zero to one
PyCon and the rest of the 12 can take its opportunity that ask you to click
the subscribe and the like button also look at the notification buttons to make
sure that you know when new videos about Battlestar Galactica deadlock of being
released by me so without out the way we've been told
we've got to go in there and not to basically cock it up in front of the 12
colonies so the Athena is the Battlestar 4 PyCon and we've had to jump it in
because the frameshift drive is not working or the FTL is not working some
engineering problem so zooming around we can see we've got two manticores that we
can maneuver and also the Athena battles there so it's our first command over
Battlestar so this is going to be a bit confusing I think the Battlestar is
gonna move very slow err than what the manticores can so we'll use them to get
out there first the maximum if they arranged to engage
the Cylon contacts so the Cylon contacted depicted by this old red
markers you can see on the screen and we're going to start moving the Athena
so we can get back into the fight
so now quick zoom around the battlefield here
you can see there are a few Cylon targets that are coming in because we
need to move quickly to get into the
engagements pretty quickly adjust a ship's posture to tailor the cruise
tactics so that you can position you making sure that we're on X or the level
plane using our X&Y access and we're gonna move the battle star I think over
to the staging point on the right hand side of the screen likewise so we're
going to adjust our posture as well now now the posture basically means if
you're gonna be an aggressive posture then you're all focused on the battle if
you're gonna be an attacking if you're gonna have a defensive posture then
exactly what it says it's gonna put loads of efforts into defense making
sure your firewalls are going to Cylon hacking is strong enough to prevent any
degradation of your systems but I've gotta say second mission is quite
exciting you're gonna get a control of battle stir I think I getting straight
into things is it really we've set our posture on the Athena
we come for defensive posture though do we want that game after thorough missus
was being used against this commander receiving word from the Cylons they're
alert Vipers are often community to return hostilities is what looks like
some sort of scavenger ship
let's look at the space selection the spacebar selection on the
Athena and see what we can actually get so we could launch vipers got fire
control launch all our vipers
let's get out of I presume play as well so that will help against some of the
smaller units the Cylons are using against this miss lopsy it's prep we can
fly a guided missiles launched a Vipers at the same time and also get our
manticores to attack as well now I've made a drastic error on this particular
mission but hey it's the way things go I'm not gonna quit and go back and and
carry on going I've actually directed one of my man to
cause to fly directly into one of the other Cylon ships now that will cause
the loss of that Manticore but also the loss of that Cylon ship so a an eye for
an eye I'm not saying it's good practice in fact it's a bit of a cock-up but at
least it wasn't a total waste it's gonna get our long-range missiles a firing
solution on those Cylon Corvettes
my missiles are away
Lotus moment-to-moment priority targets or defend any of our own capitals so I
could have liked the squadron as well if the situation get them engage on some of
the smaller targets and then another Viper squadron then to engage the target
on the lower right hand side so again lots of micromanagement in the battle
and when you see the replay the replay only goes on for like you know a matter
of seconds and what seems to be a huge planning situation you really are given
control over all aspects of this battle yes whether you have flak coming from
the battle star whether what posture you're at where you use guns whether you
use missiles whether you recall your Vipers whether you send your fighters
out who you target so it is really down to the minutia of every part of this
battle I personally think it's great
Sasa can take you a bit of time to build up to building a battle stone it's gonna
be a huge cost involved in that and I think not everyone can have loads of
battle stars so whether or not the game's gonna limit that or not
taking damage these videos are also posted on my Facebook channel as well
McAdams gaming check that out there's loads of elite dangerous and ultimate
epic battle simulator and a few other games as well from the Star Wars ero so
let's have a look at some repairing some subsystems looks like everything's ok
we're gonna move that battle star as well so we can gauge it a bit better so
we're going to set our posture to really defensive now you wanna get taking too
much damage whatever Cylon nastiness is out there
now these ships are also launching smaller ships and these smaller ships
are flying towards us and they are infecting us or hacking us and breaking
through the firewall to affect some of our systems
as you can see where my manticores already been destroyed but I've also
taken out one of those Cylon ships as well so a bit of an oversight on my
behalf perhaps too much things going on my
inexperience with the the game and the interface but hey I just cocked up hands
up I did it i cocked up i lost a ship but it's only again
so again we're gonna make that turn the buckle start open up and let the Vipers
open up as well destroyed that for vet it's time to turn our attention to the
smaller ship that is hacking or attempting to hack the Battlestar so
we'll use our vipers for that as well get them to engage on a smaller scale
and your bring our other Viper squadron over see we've got our Vipers you select
that target that it will Cylon sneaky side by there and then turn our
attention towards that Manticore and that remaining Cylons now the manticores
and the Cylon Corvette seem to be quite evenly matched I mean so far I mean I've
been able to beat them with a Manticore but I get the impression there is more
to come
and we can stop those Cylon tech shifts from hacking our systems but he's being
stubborn we've already minimized onboard there's
a bit of talk you talk now about what you can do about hacking otherwise and
the engineer I think it's a bit condescending on this for then again was
too much could be your engineers came saying we'll just shoot them before they
hack you use this to zone out fighters and incoming munitions so we're going to
enter a flak solution as well to make sure that nothing gets closed now these
Jupiter class battle stars I mean they are huge but we're not going to see I
don't think the likes of the Pegasus or things like that because that came a lot
in the future from the current state whether that'll be available as
downloadable content for the game in the future who knows so sir so far I've been
very impressed very impressed with this game so we're going to call our vipers
get them to land in the docking pods now you're going to make keep an eye on the
repair status of your ship if your ships taking a bit of damage and for example
the flight pods and hangar bay they're takers and damage your Vipers are gonna
be you're gonna have to redirect your
repair teams to fix that particular system or Getty
leases to a point where its operational
on a commander so we're still having a go at that talent that Talon is taking a
right beating from us only thing also to luck out for wise fire control you
haven't got fire control plenty account fire and that's that's something very
important especially in this game you can be pursuing some Cylon to the end of
the planet and then he's taking your guns out so what the hell we gonna do
so we recording the other like the unit into the cargo bay
and if returned more missiles are coming from
to attack that circle that Pike on Intel just confirmed that Admiral McKinley
died in the attack and with that merciless indicator of Hellenic a
Pegasus Fame McKenna Lee was a good command he's in command
because the other fleet commander has his Battlestar and that looks well and
truly Mullen so say we all so say we all so say we all
let's continue and return the battle stars coming into range better plan sec
we've destroyed that Cylon Corvette
let's take a quick look if you're finished playing with my car's toy at
the replay it's time to they've already been notified
Sinan commander there's something else yeah yeah yeah navigation computers
don't use that Battlestar belongs to the colony
and what's taken the best part of 13 minutes is now all going to be over in
the matter of two in regards to this replay which gives you an idea of the
amount of it's a great view behind that cylon smaller unit that's been sent out
to have others it gives you an idea of how much is involved in planning each
individual battling as the game progresses it gets more complex as more
and more units are on the screen I have to think so many steps ahead
there's our battle stare and loading on that Cylon scavenger ship is that
Manticore flying into that
destroying it and the game CAM from when the bikers
that have been launched in the athena it's a crude
that's a really cool effect
I really do like that they have thoughts about that they've watched the
reimagined series they valid look at all the ones especially where there's the
the gun footage in the scar episode anything cooked it into the games great
so you can tell it's been done the people who have done this they've been
fans they've watched the content so I think the fans of the TV show the
original series the film's should be happy with this I'm happy with this
they probably guess that and that's it end of the engagement I've
been Ricardo is has been Battlestar Galactica deadlock please check back for
the third tutorial mission
