Things are heating up! Interesting that colonization of Barnard's star was authorized even without a proper military to protect them, after what happened to the Banshee.
I'm probably about done with chapter 3, actually. And yes, there was a bit of a debate on Earth as to how best to proceed when Banshee failed to return and her wreck was discovered. Of course, there are some other considerations that compound the matter as well... so stay tuned!
Ahh, ok. I would expect that Earth's going to be calling for blood once they find the wreck of the Banshee, but that will probably take a few weeks/months.
Yeah, losing Banshee stung a bit. Problem was that we didn't pick up the Precursors (I'm pretty sure that's what they are) on passives until we were already well within missile range. At that point, it was a matter of figuring out how many minutes the ship would survive.
If you mean the pre-built enemies, I have Precursors and Swarm turned on.
