Another interesting aspect about the design of the ships is the bright flamboyant color pallets, and the sharp and crunchy decals and little symbols, numbers and serials across the ships and assets. The designs of the ships are very nonstandard, (especially for the time) and have a very utilitarian, asymmetrical style to them. The art style used in the Homeworld Franchise is very striking and unique.

The Designs range from fighter class singular ships to capital вЂ“ super capital class ships, massive city ships and mega stations, as well as styles that go all the way from basic sketches, to matte paintings, traditional and digital work, full rendered game assets, and even textures. The artwork in the book expands from pre-development Homeworld 1 (1999) to Homeworld 2 (2003) -minus Homeworld: Cataclysm, of course.

ItвЂ™s pages are thick with a non-gloss finish, bringing it all together nicely and quite solid.

Inside the paper cover is the skin of the book, which is a nice fabric texture with the embossed silver icon of Hiigara, as well as the franchise. The book itself is well constructed in a nice minimalist style to match that of the game. Sometime in summer of 2014, HOMEWORLD REMASTERED COLLECTION was announced and finally released this year in February.ДЄt first glance, one of the first thing that becomes immediately clear about this book, is that it is absolutely MASSIVE, With 236 pages of artwork, interviews, concepts, and unused game assets. It later spawned 2 sequels, one of them being a short spinoff, CATACLYSM, and a fully realized sequel HOMEWORLD 2, released in 2003. HOMEWORLD is a fully 3d space-based naval combat RTS game that was first released around 1999. By the time you can produce them, you could already be maxed out if you did it right.Huge thanks to Mike Maddox for providing the book, and for sponsoring this commentary/review.ДЇirst off, let me begin with a bit of background about this book. Related I made it my mission each play through to capture every single heavy cruiser I came across. Granted, you didn't have to destroy him, but damn it felt good! It was doable, but was exceptionally hard without losing at least 1 cruiser (normally 2). With that said, a much harder achievement was destroying the Junk-Yard-Dog. Tanking with your cruisers was essential and pulling them back for repairs at ~1/2 health would help you endure. It just took exceptional control, reactions, and careful managing of your fleets. OTOH, you could beat that final mission without MBFs.

Banking resources and producing ships as you jumped in was a 'cheat' you could do to bring down the odds. If you brought in a ZOMG XBOX HUEG fleet at the start, the emperor had 3x that. Part of the trick was the last mission scaled based upon the ship fleet you brought with you. *Note: When I say 'only' I mean 'best' which, really, in a computer game, is often the same thing I seem to recall the *only* way to go was to capture as many of those multi-beam ion frigates or whatever from the junkyard level. Will there be more than one way to win now?
