Supreme Commander 2: Difference between revisions

* [[But Thou Must!]]: In the final mission, you have to destroy four shield generators to get to the commander. Brackman asks you to find another way, but there is none.

* [[Captain Obvious]]: Ivan and Gustaf Brackman. Admittedly, Ivan may be describing things to his father that his father cannot see himself, but Gustaf has no such excuse.

'''Gustaf:''' {{spoiler|It appears I greatly underestimated Gauge's ability to get the ectosynthesiser online}} }}

* [[Catapult to Glory]]: One of the UEF's experimental buildings is a giant factory/cannon that builds robots quickly and cheaply, then launches them all the way across the map--possibly right inside or behind the enemy base.

* [[Civil Warcraft]]: Happens midway through the first campaign and continues on later campaigns.

* [[Cloudcuckoolander]]: William Gauge swaps between villanous gloating and childlike chatter with no pause in between.

'''Gauge:''' Ooh, I ''love'' rumours! }}

** To put in perspective, same mission:

* [[The Computer Is a Cheating Bastard]]: In skirmish games, you can pick if an AI will explicitly cheat or not. This results in a ''significant'' [[Difficulty Spike]]. If you want to lose, look no further.

* [[Crippling Overspecialization]]: Mostly averted once you research enough upgrades. Depending on what side you're playing as, you can upgrade your tanks and assault bots with anti-air guns, obviating the need to build AA-only units. The Cybrans can even mount a gun on their otherwise-helpless Engineers. Some units are still overspecialized, however: the UEF has an anti-air fighter jet and a bomber jet, but no fighter-bombers like the other two sides.

* [[Not So Different]]: William Gauge points out to Thalia that for all her ideals, she's actually a terrorist and has done more to hurt people than help. To hammer this point home, he nukes a city and says he couldn't have done it without her.

* [[Nuke'Em]]: Willam Gauge does it repeatedly. In fact, he once does so twice in the same mission, following up the second with this Oppenheimer quote:

** A nuke is a guaranteed kill for pretty much anything in the blast area. Experimentals and the commander usually take two.

* [[Psycho Prototype]]: William Gauge, a prototype Cybran who's quite insane.
