Yeah your rematch started with the warp drives getting blown up. The controllers are on the left side of the craft in the back, which is the exact location that was immediately destroyed. The roll behavior never came up in my testing with it, but then again my tests didn't account for immediate catastrophic loss of most roll thrusters on one side, so I find this to be acceptable performance. Might want to add weaker shielding on the sides now though.
Hey Lathrix, could you sometime find some time to record a teaching video in wich you get in depth with your type of building? Your creations always seem extremely powerful, maybe you can teach us some tricks?
I think the main reason why his things are so powerful (in comparison to mine at least) is that he actually spends time on detection, smoke and all those other annoying things I can never be bothered to do properly. That and having the support of the Chaos gods of course. Also, particle cannons are still very powerful (and probably the reason the singularity died so easily, they cant be countered after all)
Personal Log #8: Today as me and Erika went to the refugee's village to trade for some food we were suprised as everyone looked so agitated, we noticed a crowd arguing and listening to the elected leader, we came close to listen and according to the sentinels whom scouted the area around the village noticed the Blood Guard had started the war against the Scarlet Dawn and was scavenging all of the Neter in search for ressources to build their war machines, it wouldn't be long until they found us and would exterminate every single one of us, the entire town was in panic, some wanted to surrender and other former soldiers from the Onyx Watch and White Flayers wanted to fight the Blood Guard back, a brave yet foolish thought. If we were to surrender Lathrix would not hesitate to enslave us, if we fight back we won't have a chance, we only have a few military vessels which are useless the Blood Guard had defeated similar ships countless of times, neither options were doable and the entire village was in dispair we had to think of a solution. It was at that moment that Erika moved on top of the podium and adressed her idea to the public: -"Everyone calm down ! We should not lose hope now", she yelled -"How do you want us to calm down miss ?! We are going to die in a few days !", responded the leader of the village -"You are forgetting that the Neter isn't the only existing place in this world, we may have all lost this fight and we may not ever be able to get back here but what we can do is sail throught the unexplored ocean to our west, we'll build a big ship out of all the materials we have in our possesion and sail toward the unkown, there must be some place that is inhabitable other than the Neter !" -"Wait, you mean the Great Abyss ? you want us to sail throught that ?! very few have travelled over such deep waters and even less are the ones who came back, we don't even know if the legends of the giant island found at the other side of the ocean is true !" Indeed, the Neter is the only inhabitable peice of land known to it's inhabitants, the archipelago is surrounded by a deep ocean, so deep that the bottom was never reached by anyone except for the poor soul who would sail on it and perish to the violent storms that can swallow entire ships, some legends and rumors says that a few explorers managed to sail throught the ocean and found an island so big it could be home to all of the Neter's population. It was a risky gamble, we knew a lot of people would die if not all of us, yet it was worth the try, if we made it throught we could rebuild society far from the chaos and death of the Blood Guard. -"Well do you have a better idea mister ?! If we surrender or try to fight back best case scenario is that we will all die otherwise we'll be gutted from the inside out ontop of one of Lathrix's altars !", I responded -"I suppose that is true, while I'm skeptical about Erika's suggestion it is still the only one which could lead to a positive outcome, I will make all the ressources we have dedicated toward building the ship, and I give you two the charge of the project since your the best engineers of the village" , said the Leader It was settled, Erika and me became in charge of the lives of all the refugees, a hefty task but it was necessary for our survival. -Baron Von Cyberus, the Crestfallen Deserter
In case some of your wish to read the previous logs I will copy and paste them down here: Episode 14: Personal log #1: Today I was promoted by our beloved-totally-a-good-guy leader as the minister of propaganda and diplomatic relationships of the blood guard, the loss of our prized historical battleship the "Mallal's Will" by a flanking white flayers fleet a few days ago left suspicions about the organization of our military force, I cannot allow that and had to make a short documentary about the battleship and how its last moments were spent defending the main attack force of the blood guard until the bitter end and how it was the most honorable way for it to leave this world by using some retrieved footage of the many battles it fought, took a lot of time but we can't allow people to doubt of the power of the blood guard due its already bad reputation. On a good note, the blood guard finally defeated and captured the fort of the white flayers the "Gorgon", most think it was the right thing to do due to the horrible sacrifices and rituals made by the followers of the flayed god, and to those who think otherwise, I've managed to get my hands on footage of the flayers worshiping their god which i will turn into propaganda used to show them the errors of the flayed god and that Khorn is the one and only worthy god. Sadly due to the radiation caused by our nuclear swarms we will have to be more mindful of their usage as it reduces the exploitable land into irradiated wastelands, a shame since i loved seeing these little buggers homing into their target and creating this huge explosion, but i guess the negatives outweigh the positives, also our leader Lathrix calls them unfair. What is he thinking ? Later in the evening our leader decided to declare war against the Grey talons, the grey talons who are the most advanced military force aside from the invaders, the ones who were able to stop an invasion of an alien hostile force much more advanced than any of our own ships, the ones who are beloved and allied to three other powerful factions including our allies the Onyx watch ! The blood guard is simply not prepared to face the grey talons, even Lathrix himself has doubts about the viability of our fleet against them, and to make things worst the twin guard and steel striders are rapidly becoming hostile to us threatening of having a war on three fronts, infact even the onyx watch who trusted us the entire time are finding it foolish due to the power of the grey talons and the risk of letting the scarlet dawn invasion progress if we somehow succeed in defeating the grey talons, this will be troublesome if even our closest ally turns on us. While examining the map I thought of a possible solution to avoid having a war on three fronts which i immediately told Lathrix : at the south east is a bastion of Lightning hoods loyalists who retreated there once their HQ was destroyed by the old wooden fleet "aggressive wood", all of the onyx watch, twin guard and steel striders hate them but can't deal with them due to their conflict with the Scarlet dawn, if we sent a fleet there to deal with them our relationship would increase long enough to avoid the three front war and would also allow to flank the grey talons, once Lathrix heard about it he said he would consider this option due to the losses we had in our first fight and the onyx watch slowly losing their trust toward us. In the meanwhile all I can do is promise them we will help them crush the steel striders and show them edited footage of the fight against the grey talons so they don't doubt our military power -Baron Von Cyberus, Minister of the Blood guard's propaganda and diplomatic relationships
Episode 15: personal log #2: My previous concerns about the Blood guard being unprepared to fight the Grey talons were thankfully wrong, the Blood guard deployed a new prototype of cheap hover tanks that could be mass produced while still being effective along with previously captured white flayers dreadnoughts and even our three last remaining nuclear warheads which are no longer allowed to be manufactured, we were able to capture two resource zones of strategic importance and even capture one of the "Kobold" class gunship, by the dark ones ! such a miracle of engineering now in our hands ! it will serve Khorne very well and spill a lot of blood I'm sure of it. The Grey talons fortress is within the range of our sattelite radars, however i am worried of our current stock of resources, we lost both of the White flayers ships and we've been simply lucky as the only real threatening ship we faced was alone and got destroyed by the nukes, I feel like the grey talons are soon going to point their bigger guns toward us. This evening something really strange and worrying happened, I was negotiating with one of the Onyx watch ambassadors on the newly converted White flayers HQ, and all of a sudden a red unidentified flying craft started hovering above the fortress, the defensive turrets immediately started firing at the unknown ship however it did not fire back at us and all the shells got deflected by it's shields, and suddenly a distorted voice starts saying the following: "We have been watching you and we have high hopes you will help us spread the new dawn, a Scarlet dawn !", after that the ship warped away. Damn it ! the Onyx watch and all of the allies of the grey talons are on the brink of war with the Blood guard and now they will think we are friends with those Scarlet dawn invaders ? No. I can't let it happen, the ambassador with whom I was negociating saw too much, I knew what to do, I pulled my revolver out and shot him then ordered his escorting fleet to be shot down by the fortress's defences, i will cover up his death as an awful accident during a storm, the Onyx watch shall not know about what happened nor about our relation with the Scarlet dawn. I can only hope we can defeat the Grey talons before the three other factions get too suspicious. -Baron Von Cyberus, Minister of the Blood guard's propaganda and diplomatic relationships
Episode 17: Personal log #3: A few days ago we converted the captured "Kobold" gunship into it's new form at the testing facility, behold the mighty World eater ! and for its first test Lathrix requested me to bring him a worthy target from the Onyx watch, the Bulwark dreadnought itself. It was a hard to convince the Onyx watch into giving us such an expensive ship and infact I had to promise them to let them watch what we intended to do with it, let us hope the Scarlet dawn doesn't show up this time so I don't have to shoot the bloody sods to hide our relationship with these invaders. The Generals sent by the Onyx watch were at first mad seeing their beloved Bulwark sitting there as a target for our prototype, that is until it started firing all of its guns at the World eater without a single shell denting it, then the World eater turned its weapons on and cut the Bulwark in half, I could see it in their eyes, Fear as their most elite unit got mercilessly slaughtered. "This, gentlemen" I said "Is the true power of the Blood guard, with it we can easily wipe out the Steel striders and recapture the lands they stole from you and restore your trading routes, do not ever doubt our power and intentions after this... after all... We, are the good guys" After this show of power I doubt the Onyx watch would ever consider turning on us whether they want to or not. Magnificent ! we destroyed the main base of the Gray talons, only a handful of scattered tribes remain and with a little bit of propaganda and a few double agents I can easily sow the seeds of chaos between them. Even the Steel striders are fearing us and tried to sign a peace treaty with us, the Twin guards are on the brink of war, but it is too late as we eliminated the risk of fighting on multiple fronts and will easily be able to pick at the remaining factions one by one. An unexpected occurrence happened, the Lightning hoods loyalists and the remaining Gray talon tribes allied despite all of my effort in trying to make them fight each others ! I did not expect it and they started a guerrilla warfare along with assassination attempts on many high ranking personnel and vehicles of the Blood guard, I think it is time to cleanse that leftover bastion of vermines once for all. -Baron Von Cyberus, minister of the Blood guard's propaganda and democratic relationship
Episode 21: Personal log #6: I was able to reach the refinery just in time, the Blood guard had sent a monstrous airship which was engineered by Lathrix himself toward the outpost guarding the refinery, it was able to wistand the onslaught of a Bulwark and two Trebuchets with only a dent in its armour. When I reached the refinery I immediately rushed toward the engineering bay in search of Erika. When she saw me she immediately ran toward me and said: "Cyber ?! Is that you ? what happened to you ? we lost contact with the Onyx throne a few hours ago !". "There is no time to explain" I replied "We must go away now, the Blood guard has gone rogue and we won't be able to stop them". Luckily for us two, the outpost did not get the message of the Blood guard's betrayal yet and I was granted access thanks to my previous title in the Blood guard. Once Erika and I escaped the attacking airship and watched powerless as the refinery got shredded into a pile of scrap metal, Erika suddenly asked me what was happening and where I disappeared all of these months. I told her about how the Blood guard took me as a test subject for their prosthetics and my engagement as a minister for them. "So the rumors are true ? you were working for that lunatic and assisted in his massacres, I'm sorry but even if you are my friend I won't cooperate with a traitor from the Blood guard, even if your so called 'corn' or whatever is going to hang my head on a pike",Erika said. "Listen I did not have the choice, when the Blood guard stuck their prosthetics onto me after the accident they threatened me of ripping them off and hanging my body on top of their ships unless I worked for them, I tried to keep Lathrix from attacking the Onyx watch but he started getting suspicious of me. Despite my less than ideal childhood within the Onyx watch I would never want harm done to this fantastic country or to you. I am truly sorry, I was weak of will and scared but now I regret all I did, sadly there is no more hope in stopping the Blood guard, but the only thing I can do to save my honor is desert them and try to save you. Please forgive me Erika",I said. Erika took a few minutes to look at the now ruined refinery being set ablaze as the Blood guard's airship was hovering above it and turned back toward me:"Cyber I can't forgive you for what you've done just yet, but I suppose it is true that it's too late to stop the Blood guard now so I shall follow you since it is all I have left, much like you. Now do you know a place we can live safely in ?". "Yes I do, I planned this escape as Lathrix announced his betrayal" -Baron Von Cyberus, The crestfallen deserter
Episode 22: Personal log #6: Once the Blood guard's strike force leaved the former Onyx watch territory, Me and Erika sailed toward the north west into the former Deep water guard pirates seas, it was where Lathrix started his conquest, an old abandoned wooden oil rig with a plate of metal hastily welded onto it. There was a small resource zone that was of no interest to the Blood guard, we were safe here as they won't search for us there. The oil rig was left to slowly decay along with a few half built "Khornflakes" drones, quite a funny vehicle, almost entirely made out of wood, hovering with a small propeller and carrying two missile pods attached with metal chains. Yet despite their funny appearance these tiny things wiped out half of the Deep water pirates in a single day... not surprising considering nearly all of their army consisted of wooden rafts half sinking under the weight of the cannon hastily welded onto it. Erika and I then immediately started striping the decaying structure and the nearby ship wrecks for resources, once that was done we started working on building a harvester. -"Well glad you haven't lost your engineering skills Cyber, were going to need them now that we are on our own" -"Oh please Erika ! this is just a harvester beacon, a child could do it" -"*laugh*, I'm just teasing you, if you were THAT rusty I'd be worried about what kind of implants that madman placed into your body" -"Don't worry, I may have changed physically but I am still the same old Von Cyberus inside" -"Well while we are talking about it, since we are going to be stuck together for probably the rest of our lives, I wanted to say that I forgive you for what you've done. You may have been forced into following that lunatic into his crimes but the fact you risked yourself to save me shows there is still a good person within you despite some of your previous acts" -"I'm glad that we finally were able to make peace, I promise you this time I won't betray you" -"Glad to be with you Cyber, for the better and the worst" -"Can we negotiate about the worst ?" -"nope" "Allright, together for the better and the worst". -Baron Von Cyberus, The crestfallen deserter
Hey, nice video as always. Your vehicles and style of game play are pretty great. And as the (primary) creator of the Singularity, I am greatly flattered by your comments
Angelo Matulac we didn't. It has a massive frontal drag profile, but this is largely irrelevant due to the fact that it only really moves sideways and in circles.
Lath! In both fights with the singularity you took out the two massive advanced cannons on the singularity, this caused the singularity to lose a lot of damage. If you have the time I recommend going into the sandbox mode and lets the advanced cannons on the singularity actually get to fire at maximum capacity because it is a crazy sight to see. Love your videos :)
To quote Davy Jones, "life is cruel, why should the afterlife be any different? I offer you a choice. Join my crew...and postpone the judgment. One hundred years before the mast. Will ye serve?"
im wondering how a giant gun covered in armor would do, like the galaxy gun from star wars except not a missile bot. maybe a rail, a laser or a particle cannon
OMFG, do you know what singularity counters? Capital ships. One ship fleet. That thing destroys everything 1 to 1. The counter beat the weapon... Lathrix you freaking magician. Although I do realise that bloodhound torso is a subvehicle, But singularity! Freaking singularity! Died from the thing it counters. I want lathrix to read this.
Hey Lathrix! Before the start of the next episode, could you show us your oldest design you have saved? Really interested to see what it used to look like.
and the event horizon has been massively critically damaged... Wait massively critically damage- when there's too much damage to even comprehend - Lathrix 2017
Could you perhaps do a bonus episode after the series where you build a vehicle as OP as possible and fight the scarlet dawn. Sometimes it feels like you're downgrading your own building potential for the sake of fareness. It would be quite entertaining watching a 50k volume vehicle named "The blood god" or something utterly obliterate the best faction in the Neter campaign, or even against the best ships of each faction. And as always, great video, easily one of my favourite series
for me their was a perfect cliffhanger for me as just after Lathrix jumped into the water after the nightmare before the game registered that he captured it an add popped up
I was asked today what my worst nightmare would be, I know realise my greatest fear: FLYING SQUIRRELS WITH WARP DRIVES that dodge missiles and warps around being irritating.
Heloo Lathrix, I posted this before Since the change bringers aren't as good as you wanted, I haz a thought. Change them into low water subs and have there weapons separated from the base, held as boat guns that feed off the sub. Maybe the primary be a rail weapon. Ether way replacing the change bringers would balance the four corruptions. Blood for the Blood God!
Try making a ship called 'Astronomer' that has 2 dual rapid-fire 500mm graviton ram shells that sends enemy crafts into space. The rest of the engine power you can use to either make the craft extremely fast or tanky (shields). It should be fun!
the simple lasers are quite good, i made a decent "satellite" with them as the main and only weapon, beats a flying squirrel almost every time , only time it loses is if they trade blows
There are a few crafts I realy fear. One of the them is the Singularity, which I respect the shit out of. Is just amazing, it looks very nice, it has a bit of survivability and very strong firepower. And a very annoying warp drive, which makes APS cannons almost useless. Only railguns can realy catch it. But it burns more fuel in 10 min than America burns oil in 5 years...
Series suggestion: Make a FTD play through where you can have 5 of your own ships, but everything else has to be captured and unaltered vehicle from the other factions (Any amount of gathering fortresses if you accidentally destroy the enemy fortress)
Lathland I've watched all of your FTD videos since Christmas and I've been wondering,could you do a battle royale ,like you set up your vehicles against theirs, or could you do a sandbox vehicle against the entire scarlet dawn.
Watching this, I am honestly afraid... I am having issues making a craft that can even handle the Deepwater Guard efficiently... How am I gunna be able to win this?
Lathrix do you own a dog? And also what's your favorite thing to do in from the depth is it building creation or watching them kill ecother ruthlessly for your approval and for the blood god
I just started a new campaign and I'm confused as hell... I know the basics, but whenever I try to move my plane, the light blue circle that's supposed to surround my vehicle... isn't there. I can't move outside the starting fortress' blue circle for some reason. I've declared war on DWG and everything... I have no idea what's going on. It's irritating me madly. Can anyone help?
Scarlet Dawn Scout:Captain! Captain! enemy ships straight towards our borders! Admiral "Bloodfin" Fesarius: what type of ships? Scarlet Dawn Scout: Lathrixian sir! they are making aggressive pushes into our territory! all armed to the teeth! Admiral Fesarius: Impossible!!! we are allies to the end! Scarlet Dawn Scout:They decided to take Neter for themselves and broke our diplomatic ties with us! Scarlet Dawn Deck Officer: Sir! a transmission from Scarlet Dawn High Command! The Navy Council wants to speak about your progress! Admiral Fesarius:(so it is true! they are trying to take over the planet! its a good thing that we prepared for this) Forward Scarlet Dawn Command i am unreachable! send all warships to the borders! Initiate Catastrophe Stage 1 Defense Systems! We must protect our conquest! I am not letting some cacophony legion of crap take our land away from us!!! Scarlet Dawn Officer:Y...Yes sir! contacting all border patrol forces as we speak admiral! Admiral Fesarius: lets hope our monopoly on our navy is half the war Scarlet Dawn Scout:I highly doubt that sir!
If you ever do another campaign, I really want to see how you manage without fuelling your fleet by capturing everything in sight :p building when you have to care about running costs is a different discipline. I'm curious now if there's a campaign option to disable captures. It'd hurt me too given I tend to plunder the DWG to get going, but it'd be a nice thing to try with it enforced.
Was hoping there was a CC flag hidden somewhere - CC editing is an area I've not looked at at aall. Ah well, self discipline! For Lathrix: alternative idea, declare war on everyone from the very start. I know someone on the forums does that...
really like the designs of the scarlet dawn creation :D would like you to take a look at some workshop creations cause there are some really good creations there like The Dune Centipede and all sorts of stuff cause people who made crazy designs deserves a spotlight especially the ones that functions well and looks cool :D

"Credit to the Galaxy for being one tough little potato"~Lathtix
Lathrix. You should put a warp drive on the nightmare.
Madman3721 yes
Man warp drives, I made a craft which just warps around and every now and then shoots off a massive volley of missiles.
Lath... Please capture at least one of the vehicles... Capture THE Scarlet Dawn
That ship is a beast
I wish
Yeah your rematch started with the warp drives getting blown up. The controllers are on the left side of the craft in the back, which is the exact location that was immediately destroyed. The roll behavior never came up in my testing with it, but then again my tests didn't account for immediate catastrophic loss of most roll thrusters on one side, so I find this to be acceptable performance. Might want to add weaker shielding on the sides now though.
Hey Lathrix, could you sometime find some time to record a teaching video in wich you get in depth with your type of building?
Your creations always seem extremely powerful, maybe you can teach us some tricks?
I think the main reason why his things are so powerful (in comparison to mine at least) is that he actually spends time on detection, smoke and all those other annoying things I can never be bothered to do properly.
That and having the support of the Chaos gods of course.
Also, particle cannons are still very powerful (and probably the reason the singularity died so easily, they cant be countered after all)
yes, please
Chaos gods do give a pretty good boost in performance.
Maxi Milian "sometime find some time"
Every SINGLE time Lathrix says "People told me this is gonna wreck me" he proceeds to kill those exact things without too much of a problem.
Corrupt the nightmare, lose the particle cannon, add a warp drive and call it something the Widower or something like if you agree.
The fact that you want to call it the Widower makes me want to call it the Sniper
Personal Log #8:
Today as me and Erika went to the refugee's village to trade for some food we were suprised as everyone looked so agitated, we noticed a crowd arguing and listening to the elected leader, we came close to listen and according to the sentinels whom scouted the area around the village noticed the Blood Guard had started the war against the Scarlet Dawn and was scavenging all of the Neter in search for ressources to build their war machines, it wouldn't be long until they found us and would exterminate every single one of us, the entire town was in panic, some wanted to surrender and other former soldiers from the Onyx Watch and White Flayers wanted to fight the Blood Guard back, a brave yet foolish thought.

It was at that moment that Erika moved on top of the podium and adressed her idea to the public:
-"Everyone calm down ! We should not lose hope now", she yelled
-"How do you want us to calm down miss ?! We are going to die in a few days !", responded the leader of the village
-"You are forgetting that the Neter isn't the only existing place in this world, we may have all lost this fight and we may not ever be able to get back here but what we can do is sail throught the unexplored ocean to our west, we'll build a big ship out of all the materials we have in our possesion and sail toward the unkown, there must be some place that is inhabitable other than the Neter !"
-"Wait, you mean the Great Abyss ? you want us to sail throught that ?! very few have travelled over such deep waters and even less are the ones who came back, we don't even know if the legends of the giant island found at the other side of the ocean is true !"

-"I suppose that is true, while I'm skeptical about Erika's suggestion it is still the only one which could lead to a positive outcome, I will make all the ressources we have dedicated toward building the ship, and I give you two the charge of the project since your the best engineers of the village" , said the Leader
It was settled, Erika and me became in charge of the lives of all the refugees, a hefty task but it was necessary for our survival.

In case some of your wish to read the previous logs I will copy and paste them down here:
Episode 14:
Personal log #1:
Today I was promoted by our beloved-totally-a-good-guy leader as the minister of propaganda and diplomatic relationships of the blood guard, the loss of our prized historical battleship the "Mallal's Will" by a flanking white flayers fleet a few days ago left suspicions about the organization of our military force, I cannot allow that and had to make a short documentary about the battleship and how its last moments were spent defending the main attack force of the blood guard until the bitter end and how it was the most honorable way for it to leave this world by using some retrieved footage of the many battles it fought, took a lot of time but we can't allow people to doubt of the power of the blood guard due its already bad reputation.
On a good note, the blood guard finally defeated and captured the fort of the white flayers the "Gorgon", most think it was the right thing to do due to the horrible sacrifices and rituals made by the followers of the flayed god, and to those who think otherwise, I've managed to get my hands on footage of the flayers worshiping their god which i will turn into propaganda used to show them the errors of the flayed god and that Khorn is the one and only worthy god.
Sadly due to the radiation caused by our nuclear swarms we will have to be more mindful of their usage as it reduces the exploitable land into irradiated wastelands, a shame since i loved seeing these little buggers homing into their target and creating this huge explosion, but i guess the negatives outweigh the positives, also our leader Lathrix calls them unfair.
What is he thinking ? Later in the evening our leader decided to declare war against the Grey talons, the grey talons who are the most advanced military force aside from the invaders, the ones who were able to stop an invasion of an alien hostile force much more advanced than any of our own ships, the ones who are beloved and allied to three other powerful factions including our allies the Onyx watch !

The Generals sent by the Onyx watch were at first mad seeing their beloved Bulwark sitting there as a target for our prototype, that is until it started firing all of its guns at the World eater without a single shell denting it, then the World eater turned its weapons on and cut the Bulwark in half, I could see it in their eyes, Fear as their most elite unit got mercilessly slaughtered.
"This, gentlemen" I said "Is the true power of the Blood guard, with it we can easily wipe out the Steel striders and recapture the lands they stole from you and restore your trading routes, do not ever doubt our power and intentions after this... after all... We, are the good guys"
After this show of power I doubt the Onyx watch would ever consider turning on us whether they want to or not.
Magnificent ! we destroyed the main base of the Gray talons, only a handful of scattered tribes remain and with a little bit of propaganda and a few double agents I can easily sow the seeds of chaos between them. Even the Steel striders are fearing us and tried to sign a peace treaty with us, the Twin guards are on the brink of war, but it is too late as we eliminated the risk of fighting on multiple fronts and will easily be able to pick at the remaining factions one by one.
An unexpected occurrence happened, the Lightning hoods loyalists and the remaining Gray talon tribes allied despite all of my effort in trying to make them fight each others !
I did not expect it and they started a guerrilla warfare along with assassination attempts on many high ranking personnel and vehicles of the Blood guard, I think it is time to cleanse that leftover bastion of vermines once for all.
-Baron Von Cyberus, minister of the Blood guard's propaganda and democratic relationship
Episode 21:
Personal log #6:
I was able to reach the refinery just in time, the Blood guard had sent a monstrous airship which was engineered by Lathrix himself toward the outpost guarding the refinery, it was able to wistand the onslaught of a Bulwark and two Trebuchets with only a dent in its armour.
When I reached the refinery I immediately rushed toward the engineering bay in search of Erika.
When she saw me she immediately ran toward me and said: "Cyber ?! Is that you ? what happened to you ? we lost contact with the Onyx throne a few hours ago !".
"There is no time to explain" I replied "We must go away now, the Blood guard has gone rogue and we won't be able to stop them".
Luckily for us two, the outpost did not get the message of the Blood guard's betrayal yet and I was granted access thanks to my previous title in the Blood guard.
Once Erika and I escaped the attacking airship and watched powerless as the refinery got shredded into a pile of scrap metal, Erika suddenly asked me what was happening and where I disappeared all of these months. I told her about how the Blood guard took me as a test subject for their prosthetics and my engagement as a minister for them.
"So the rumors are true ? you were working for that lunatic and assisted in his massacres, I'm sorry but even if you are my friend I won't cooperate with a traitor from the Blood guard, even if your so called 'corn' or whatever is going to hang my head on a pike",Erika said.
"Listen I did not have the choice, when the Blood guard stuck their prosthetics onto me after the accident they threatened me of ripping them off and hanging my body on top of their ships unless I worked for them, I tried to keep Lathrix from attacking the Onyx watch but he started getting suspicious of me. Despite my less than ideal childhood within the Onyx watch I would never want harm done to this fantastic country or to you.
I am truly sorry, I was weak of will and scared but now I regret all I did, sadly there is no more hope in stopping the Blood guard, but the only thing I can do to save my honor is desert them and try to save you. Please forgive me Erika",I said.
Erika took a few minutes to look at the now ruined refinery being set ablaze as the Blood guard's airship was hovering above it and turned back toward me:"Cyber I can't forgive you for what you've done just yet, but I suppose it is true that it's too late to stop the Blood guard now so I shall follow you since it is all I have left, much like you. Now do you know a place we can live safely in ?".
"Yes I do, I planned this escape as Lathrix announced his betrayal"
-Baron Von Cyberus, The crestfallen deserter
Episode 22:
Personal log #6:
Once the Blood guard's strike force leaved the former Onyx watch territory, Me and Erika sailed toward the north west into the former Deep water guard pirates seas, it was where Lathrix started his conquest, an old abandoned wooden oil rig with a plate of metal hastily welded onto it.
There was a small resource zone that was of no interest to the Blood guard, we were safe here as they won't search for us there. The oil rig was left to slowly decay along with a few half built "Khornflakes" drones, quite a funny vehicle, almost entirely made out of wood, hovering with a small propeller and carrying two missile pods attached with metal chains. Yet despite their funny appearance these tiny things wiped out half of the Deep water pirates in a single day... not surprising considering nearly all of their army consisted of wooden rafts half sinking under the weight of the cannon hastily welded onto it.
Erika and I then immediately started striping the decaying structure and the nearby ship wrecks for resources, once that was done we started working on building a harvester.
-"Well glad you haven't lost your engineering skills Cyber, were going to need them now that we are on our own"
-"Oh please Erika ! this is just a harvester beacon, a child could do it"
-"*laugh*, I'm just teasing you, if you were THAT rusty I'd be worried about what kind of implants that madman placed into your body"
-"Don't worry, I may have changed physically but I am still the same old Von Cyberus inside"
-"Well while we are talking about it, since we are going to be stuck together for probably the rest of our lives, I wanted to say that I forgive you for what you've done. You may have been forced into following that lunatic into his crimes but the fact you risked yourself to save me shows there is still a good person within you despite some of your previous acts"
-"I'm glad that we finally were able to make peace, I promise you this time I won't betray you"
-"Glad to be with you Cyber, for the better and the worst"
-"Can we negotiate about the worst ?"
-"nope"
"Allright, together for the better and the worst".
-Baron Von Cyberus, The crestfallen deserter
Is it just me or does the Plagueguard need paddle wheels?
Hey, nice video as always. Your vehicles and style of game play are pretty great. And as the (primary) creator of the Singularity, I am greatly flattered by your comments
Dude if your serious you got any tips for making powerful vehicles? Especially medium sized vehicles 5000-20000 volume?
I worked on the aesthetics. If anyone wants tips, I can give some out
GAME how did you manage to put the flat front without increase the drag dramatically
Angelo Matulac we didn't. It has a massive frontal drag profile, but this is largely irrelevant due to the fact that it only really moves sideways and in circles.
Lathrix: "There is only space on this glorious planet for one ba- good guy" XD LOL
0:20
LOLOLOLOLOL
Lath! In both fights with the singularity you took out the two massive advanced cannons on the singularity, this caused the singularity to lose a lot of damage. If you have the time I recommend going into the sandbox mode and lets the advanced cannons on the singularity actually get to fire at maximum capacity because it is a crazy sight to see. Love your videos :)
"The Galaxy is pretty big"
That feels like something that'd be in the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy.
Talandar Someone has read it!
To quote Davy Jones, "life is cruel, why should the afterlife be any different? I offer you a choice. Join my crew...and postpone the judgment. One hundred years before the mast. Will ye serve?"
The scarlet dawn are kind of like the Grox from spore. Just a thought
except you don't have to try and ally with them, and lath still just declares war on them anyway ;( i feel bad for them, they got backstabbed by lath
Hi there! Unlike the Onyx Watch, who were simply liberated
Or the Xsotan from Avorion.
I've actually encountered a Grox fighter in the Creature stage before.
@@ladyellen7993 Imagine if they built a colony on my planet...
"We still need some space of our own. " Owns 3/4ths of the map but still needs more space lmfao
Shanxi15 Scarlet Dawn is in space
im wondering how a giant gun covered in armor would do, like the galaxy gun from star wars except not a missile bot. maybe a rail, a laser or a particle cannon
Wow, That ship in the thumbnail looks beastly! Good luck Lath!
I think it is the same ship as the Scarlet Dawn Boss from the Glao Campaign (Not sure since it has been a while)
Arztotzkan Empire I think so
Nah, I believe that's the nebula
That's the Singularity, a mighty machine created to assert the Scarlet Dawn's dominance over Neter. Either that, or it's an Event Horizon.
Papers please
BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD!!! THE SCARLET DAWN WILL FALL THIS DAY!!
A severley normal cow I know but I like saying them words
*AND Milk for the KHORNE FLAKES*
*BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD! MILK FOR THE KHORN FLAKES! BUTTER FOR THE POPKHORNS!*
there may only be one ba- good guy!
The galaxy is quite big
YoU dONt SAy
OMFG, do you know what singularity counters? Capital ships. One ship fleet. That thing destroys everything 1 to 1. The counter beat the weapon... Lathrix you freaking magician. Although I do realise that bloodhound torso is a subvehicle, But singularity! Freaking singularity! Died from the thing it counters. I want lathrix to read this.
"The Galaxy is returning to it's people."
Beautiful.
"There is only one place in this glorious planet for one ba... Good guy" -Lathrix 2017
Will you ever create a Seekers only fleet and call it "The Swarm"?
From what I can see, the smoke obscures the target profile the detection systems look for.
Hey Lathrix! Before the start of the next episode, could you show us your oldest design you have saved? Really interested to see what it used to look like.
why dont you just take a look at his first FTD video?
Lath you are the best from the depths youtuber that I have ever seen!
"There is only space for one b- good guy on this planet." Yes, because, remember, we are the good guys here.
and the event horizon has been massively critically damaged... Wait massively critically damage- when there's too much damage to even comprehend - Lathrix 2017
Lathland... Its become The Time... You show them how OP you are... Build something REALLY OVERPOVERDED!!
0:20 "Only enough space on this glorious planet for one ba- good guy.." Nice save lmao perfect
I would love to see lath do another adventure mode series after this but using a different vehicle type such as a boat or hovercraft when this is done
"The Galaxy is pretty big, Lathrix 2017" -Lathrix 2017
"There is only enough space on this planet for one ba-Uhm Good guy." LOFL
I want to see an aircraft with a custom jet engine.
Lathland you are nearly hitting 200,000 subs so Blood for the subs
Could you perhaps do a bonus episode after the series where you build a vehicle as OP as possible and fight the scarlet dawn. Sometimes it feels like you're downgrading your own building potential for the sake of fareness. It would be quite entertaining watching a 50k volume vehicle named "The blood god" or something utterly obliterate the best faction in the Neter campaign, or even against the best ships of each faction. And as always, great video, easily one of my favourite series
22:40 Yeah, that looks like Plaqueguard. Which would make a really nice toothpaste name.
Can you stick a bloodhound torso on the back of a medrengard that would be a beautiful combo
for me their was a perfect cliffhanger for me as just after Lathrix jumped into the water after the nightmare before the game registered that he captured it an add popped up
I was asked today what my worst nightmare would be, I know realise my greatest fear: FLYING SQUIRRELS WITH WARP DRIVES that dodge missiles and warps around being irritating.
Heloo Lathrix, I posted this before
Since the change bringers aren't as good as you wanted, I haz a thought.
Change them into low water subs and have there weapons separated
from the base, held as boat guns that feed off the sub.
Maybe the primary be a rail weapon. Ether way replacing the change bringers
would balance the four corruptions.
Blood for the Blood God!
despite the fact that lathrix's fleet just got destroyed, he literally just repaired the nightmare and he only has 15000 resource XD
The singularity is the hardest godly design for the scarlet dawn according to the campaign points... GG
Try making a ship called 'Astronomer' that has 2 dual rapid-fire 500mm graviton ram shells that sends enemy crafts into space. The rest of the engine power you can use to either make the craft extremely fast or tanky (shields). It should be fun!
Lathrix, did you know that advanced cannon doesn't need any autoloader? Simply place an ammo input into the firing piece and you're good to go!
the simple lasers are quite good, i made a decent "satellite" with them as the main and only weapon, beats a flying squirrel almost every time , only time it loses is if they trade blows
Friendship is Magic; Magic is Heresy. Please name something Friendship, you are after all, the good guys.
"Lathrix 2017" hurts to hear when its 6 years later
credit to the galaxy for being one tough potato - Lathrix 2017
"There is only enough room for one ba- GOOD guy..."
Just a quick tip: you can turn AI on and OFF in the "N" menu quicker/easier than the "C" menu...
I'd really love to see you play around with advanced cannons and make some weird combinations
There are a few crafts I realy fear. One of the them is the Singularity, which I respect the shit out of. Is just amazing, it looks very nice, it has a bit of survivability and very strong firepower. And a very annoying warp drive, which makes APS cannons almost useless. Only railguns can realy catch it. But it burns more fuel in 10 min than America burns oil in 5 years...
I think we all know what you need, a particle cannon Plague Guard.
Lolz the bloodhounds with the wagging head, legit build.
'the galaxy is big' 'the nightmare will be a nightmare' -lathrix 2017
ya don't say
*An Orbital Station comes to the Neter, The Creator is Unknown, gets into pod dropping position*
Series suggestion: Make a FTD play through where you can have 5 of your own ships, but everything else has to be captured and unaltered vehicle from the other factions (Any amount of gathering fortresses if you accidentally destroy the enemy fortress)
And you can add repair bots to captured vehicles
Lathland I've watched all of your FTD videos since Christmas and I've been wondering,could you do a battle royale ,like you set up your vehicles against theirs, or could you do a sandbox vehicle against the entire scarlet dawn.
the galaxy is returning to it's people - Lathrix 2017
So cool , I had no idea your ships could talk ;) What a sad ship , doesn't he know we love him.
The Singularity always reminded me a little bit of the planet killer.
"The Galaxy is pretty big" - Lathrix 2017"
Watching this, I am honestly afraid... I am having issues making a craft that can even handle the Deepwater Guard efficiently... How am I gunna be able to win this?
If warp drives work in the sense the ship is warped towards the front of the warp drive...
SPIN blocks. Put 'em on spin blocks.
Sadly warp drive controllers/warp rods/terminators can't be placed on spin blocks.
"Ultimately, there is only space for one ba- good guy"
Lathrix do you own a dog? And also what's your favorite thing to do in from the depth is it building creation or watching them kill ecother ruthlessly for your approval and for the blood god
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAND YOU MAKE DRONES. YOU ALWAYS MAKE DRONES. EVERYTHING MAKES DRONES IN THIS GAME! - Lathrix 2017
"credit to the galaxy for being one tough little potato"-lathrix 2017
Almost to 200k subs... wow, GZ Lath!
#RoadToMillion
I just started a new campaign and I'm confused as hell... I know the basics, but whenever I try to move my plane, the light blue circle that's supposed to surround my vehicle... isn't there. I can't move outside the starting fortress' blue circle for some reason. I've declared war on DWG and everything... I have no idea what's going on. It's irritating me madly. Can anyone help?
It kind of looks like the Cthuluhs (sorry if mispelled) heart from your reassembly series from a top down view and change the blue to red
thabk you for pumping out the ftd vids :)
"Credit to the Galaxy for being one tough little potato"~Lathtix
Lathrix!!!!!!!
There are 3 meter and 5 meter turret blocks!!!!!!!
Lathrix make a ball of Rams that fires harpoon missiles and the whole thing is black and call it the black hole
""the Galaxy is pretty big" -lathrix 2017, you don't say" -lathrix 2017
You.should make that stoniest vehicle you can go face the sd boss
Your probably not gonna answer this but how is the plague guard's armor like how much spacing is in the space armor
"For one ba-good guy." what was that lathrix lol
the nightmare is like a scarier shinier flying squirrel
Do you know what the singularity reminds me of when viewed from the top? a Halo Plasma sword ;)
greetings sir and sirettes
and welcome back to from the depths
that rhymes
also has anybody else noticed
like the video if you have
i have never actually noticed that for those 7 months that i have been watching lathrix for!
i noticed quite a while ago
I've always known that's partially why I like lathrix's ftd videos more than anything else
It doesn't rhyme.
i have, i was gona point it out but you did it for me
Lathrix: We got a nightmare
Me: i got nightmares after this
Sounds like you need a custom jet strapped to a railgun.
Damn that is the coolest craft I have ever seen no offense lathrix
He should build a warping fighter. Like so he can see
the galaxy is still surviving - Lathrix 2017
There can be only one good guy on this planet.... SO we are going to declare war!
I have no clue how you build ships i just got from the depths yesterday and and i can bearly get anything to work but u did make another amazing video
The event horizon is also a "event" in which you enter a black hole
Scarlet Dawn Scout:Captain! Captain! enemy ships straight towards our borders!
Admiral "Bloodfin" Fesarius: what type of ships?
Scarlet Dawn Scout: Lathrixian sir! they are making aggressive pushes into our territory! all armed to the teeth!
Admiral Fesarius: Impossible!!! we are allies to the end!
Scarlet Dawn Scout:They decided to take Neter for themselves and broke our diplomatic ties with us!
Scarlet Dawn Deck Officer: Sir! a transmission from Scarlet Dawn High Command! The Navy Council wants to speak about your progress!
Admiral Fesarius:(so it is true! they are trying to take over the planet! its a good thing that we prepared for this) Forward Scarlet Dawn Command i am unreachable! send all warships to the borders! Initiate Catastrophe Stage 1 Defense Systems! We must protect our conquest! I am not letting some cacophony legion of crap take our land away from us!!!
Scarlet Dawn Officer:Y...Yes sir! contacting all border patrol forces as we speak admiral!
Admiral Fesarius: lets hope our monopoly on our navy is half the war
Scarlet Dawn Scout:I highly doubt that sir!
OMG i watched one of your vid and now another one comes out :)
so exited ... "WE GOT A NIGHTMARE" (with a sexy voice) XD (Laughing so hard)
There is only space on this glorious planet for ONE bad good guy, and ultimately that is going to be US!
If you ever do another campaign, I really want to see how you manage without fuelling your fleet by capturing everything in sight :p building when you have to care about running costs is a different discipline.
I'm curious now if there's a campaign option to disable captures. It'd hurt me too given I tend to plunder the DWG to get going, but it'd be a nice thing to try with it enforced.
Was hoping there was a CC flag hidden somewhere - CC editing is an area I've not looked at at aall. Ah well, self discipline!
For Lathrix: alternative idea, declare war on everyone from the very start. I know someone on the forums does that...
really like the designs of the scarlet dawn creation :D would like you to take a look at some workshop creations cause there are some really good creations there like The Dune Centipede and all sorts of stuff cause people who made crazy designs deserves a spotlight especially the ones that functions well and looks cool :D
Only room for one Ba- good guy.-lathrix 2017
the singularity is so similar to the nebula from the previous campaign
