"We have hull breaches across all decks. Something's come aboard! Ah... HELP US!! HELP U-U-U-----S..." Radio chatter cuts out and Beast makes a sound afterward, suggesting it already consumed those poor Republican Taiidani refugees. Creepy as Hell!
I remember as a kid that scene terrified me so much that I restarted the game on easy mode just so I can avoid that colony ship to be infected. I felt so much connection with those fictional characters that it made me feel really bad and horrified I couldn't save them
@@kirshak7007 One of my greatest achievements in gaming IMO was saving the whole convoy once... on hard. 'Never have so many owed so much to so few....'
Accompanied by nightmarish screams of colonist ships being subverted, this mission is hats off one of the most scary in the game!

@@kirshak7007 exactly the same !! the micromanaging was insane to try and save them
This is a rather weird coincidence as I have just finished playing Cataclysm for the first time in about 10 years! Was looking for the OST.
I find it amazing.
Probably one of the more unsettling music in Homeworld for good reason, but it is also an accomplishment from the composer too.
The hymn of my childhood trauma.
This song always gets me to tear up, trying desperately to protect all of the colony vessels...
Same.
Jesus, that is really unnerving.
Fits the mood of the mission perfectly, those waves of cruise missiles appearing from deep space to take the colony ships.
Exactly. This mission really kicks off the real horror of the Beast.
@@StadtplanDan, actually, they hyperspace in.
fuckin only lost 1 god damn colony ship to this mission could've saved them all damnit
2022 theme song.
We'll see about that! Time to develope our own cannon!
