We meet up with the strike flotilla again, and quickly engage with dummy rounds.
It's fast, agile, and a text-book example of a possible glass cannon. However, the moment it loses its own sail, it is an easily destroyable sitting duck. It's torpedoes make it a fearsome opponent to most ships, and that lance cannon can help immobilize a ship by wreaking havoc on its sails. It's unique in being one of the few ships that is your greatest asset or liability. It's a torpedo boat, the smallest of the Royal Navies fourteen types of playable ships in-game. With Crescentia behind us, literally, we can get a closer view of our first command, the RLS Comet. You'll see later on that each faction has it's own ship design philosophy, and the Royal Navy has the pick of the litter in my eyes. It somehow perfectly combines the wooden hulls of the 18th century with the sleekness of modern sci-fi. I would like to take a second and say how much I love the ship design in this game and Treasure Planet in general. We set out for our final training exercise before we are upgraded from snotty Midshipmen into full-blown leftenants.Īssisting is a local strike flotilla, armed with the fast frigates of the Royal Navy. He comes from a race that's basically British rock monsters. Speaking of the movie, you may recognize the face in the corner. If you've seen the movie, you'll get why the name of her ship is funny. She's up there in front of the other smaller boats, in the RLS Lyonesse. Our adventure starts about 5 years from the end of the movie, Jim Hawkins finding a place at the Royal Naval Academy, John Silver disappearing into the Ethereum, and Captain (now Admiral) Amelia Smollet in command of the training flotilla. Tl:dw, the universe is a space ocean, with a Royal Navy being the peace-keepers, Pirates aplenty, and the previously unseen Procyons, but we'll get to them later. The game starts off with an intro that explains the basics of the world better than I could, so take a quick watch.

The greener and higher, the faster, ending at full stop. Finally, the Engine Order Telegraph, basically speed control. Below the skull is your map, for navigation during longer missions. In the lower left, the skull icon shows weapons, useful to show when one is recharged and ready to fire, or if its destroyed. Its an info dump, batten down the hatches. I was trying not to make this post too long, so I won't do a full playthrough of the tutorial, but I will explain what you'll probably see on screen. I'll try to explain the plot, gameplay mechanics, and other quirks as we go. It's not a very long game, but it's a good schedule. I'm hoping to try once a day with these uploads of playthroughs. You think they still have technical support experts somewhere? Do you like space? Do you like 18th century sailing ships? Do you like broadsides of cannons firing? Well then sit down and get ready for some fun! But first I have to register with Disney. Even less people remember it had a video game.ĭeveloped by Barking Dog studios, makers of Homeworld: Cataclysm, and later turned into Rockstar Vancouver, the people behind Bully and Max Payne 3, BaP as I will refer to it from now on, is a space RTS game that can be briefly described as "Space Nelsonian combat". For the most part, people don't really remember Treasure Planet.

That movie was Treasure Planet.Īn adaption of Treasure Island in a space setting, while it may have failed at the box office, it won my heart, and the hearts of a smaller, but dedicated fanbase in the Disney fan community/cult. For your humble plane avatar however, one movie stood out from The Lion King, Mulan, and many more. Many a young lad and lass my age grew up in the heyday of Disney Animation, or got to bask in its glory with the onset of the DVD becoming bigger than sliced bread.
