Spear of Odin is a Terran meme

[Zee]

Ever wanted to take the Terran out?

Make them start a fleet attack via a quest and go through Tharka's Cascade XV so that all of the Tokyo fighters die from the hazardous region because the Spear of Odin is so damn slow getting anywhere and likes to lemon sponge its way around before even reaching any Xeon.

On top of that, the Spear of Odin sits just out of range from a Xenon Defence Platform so it can't engage but won't move closer either, RIP Terran battle tactics.

Spear of Odin and three Tokyo' stopped by 1 building LOL

I thought something like this would happen, but this is just a joke

Classic X memes, gotta love em <3

I know how you feel :D
I already started using the phrase "hey he´s terraning" when some pilot just circles around doing nothing when he should be doing SOMEHTING"

Bonus points if you just capture that Asgard.

[Flavalicious]

My spear of odin is rofl stomping all of xenon space by himself. lol. I helped kill that first defense post it attacks and now it sjust rampaging through everywhere else on its own, seems completely indestructible. Considering adding some ship mods in the hopes something can eventually kill it lol.

Mine just got destroyed by a Xenon I, together with it's escorts...

Not surprised. The I is much faster, and when flanked or tailed by something with a lot of firepower, the Asgard is gonna have a bad time.

Yeah, I tried getting that I myself, thinking my Syn would be able to easily outmaneuver it... Well.. That didn't go as well as planned...

E: Fun thing is, the quest is now stuck at "current location of terran commander".
Apparently, there won't be another fleet and the quest is now borked lol.

Well your right, they have sent 3 waves of this to attack the Yaki on my game, and none of them have even made it to the yaki system yet. They managed to take out several xenon defense stations, but since almost all the fighters die to the radiation in the first damn xenon system without firing a single shot... the remaining capitals don't have a prayer in hell from then on out. The Spear of Odin is a beast of a ship, but in the hands of the A.I. it's a total pile of garbage that never brings it's guns to bear.

This is really the developers fault of course, beyond the game's hilariously bad A.I. we all know of. They decide to take the extemely long sceneic route to get to the yaki system instead of the simple straight shot through Funa.

At least the terrans will EVENTUALLY win since they magically spawn the ships for this quest, and the xenon don't. So the xenon are getting wiped out slowly, a few stations at a time.

The I is faster than the Syn too. Syn is faster than Asgard, but still below 100 ms, the I has like 137 ms.

All you could do is face it and close the gap via traveldrive.

Yeah... I decided to fly after my first attempt. My stategy was based on the Syn's layout.
I thought it would probably have some forward weapons, and other than that jjust a few turrets, so I tried passing over it's right side.

Still no idea if it had forward main weapons like my Syn, but I did manage to take out some of the foremost side turrets before it managed to shred me.

How long will it take to the next wave? The quest just stands on location of terran commander for me now, after they got wiped by the I in Matrix.

Perhaps Egosoft should rename the ship to "Leeroy Jenkins".

[rubyismycat]

Spear of Odin sounds like a sweedish sex toy lmao

[Sel Und Irae]

That just sounds like work
Start a new game
Put a Gateway Defensive grid up (Plenty of guides)
-> Anything jumps through gate = Explode



Only takes about 8 hours of construction and 4 hours to haul everything over manually.

[Middleclaw]

Indeed, the AI for this mission is a joke. Had two waves that did manage to make it to Savage Spur get distracted by anything remotely Xenon and wonder all over the place and bu some miracle, when they did make it to Yaki homebase, they just get shredded by nothing but defence drones. Nothing more cringe worthy than the pride of the Terran fleet getting taken down by nothing but second rate drones.

AFAIK, the Xenon I has no main batteries, but makes up for it with a large array of L-turrets.
