Long ago, when the word 'Hiigara' rang only as a hollow dream, the kiith of Kharak never imagined they would walk the Path to Victory. But, when they reclaimed their Homeworld and proclaimed themselves 'Hiigaran', they believed they had reached their goal. How wrong they were. 150 years after Hiigaran landfall, conflict rages across the Galaxy... Path to Victory is a multiplayer and skirmish mod for Homeworld 2 that adds new units to both Vaygr and Hiigaran Races as well as enabling the Keepers, Raiders and Kadeshi as playable races.
While the Raiders rely on many ships, their primary vessels have always been corvettes. Designed to survive incredible punishment and often go weeks without carrier support, the Turanic Raider's corvettes are the core of any raider fleet.
True to their pirate nature, the Raider Corvettes generally operate alone or in small wolf packs. The traditional 'Thief' and 'Brigand' Corvettes are designed to combat fighters and other corvettes and can capture enemy ships making them a versatile tool in any raider captain's toolbox and essential to building up new technology.
The 'Thief' carries an armament of four heavy guns capable of firing several times per second giving in an extremely high damage output at the raider's low level of accuracy. Best used against corvettes or single frigates.
The 'Brigand' is armed with twenty missile tubes capable of unleashing a barrage of high explosive FLAK or (nicknamed Flee Like A Kat) missiles that will turn any squadron of strike craft away. However these deadly missile swarms can work to the raider's disadvantage and the chance that friendly fighters will be caught in the hail of shrapnel is about as likely as hitting an enemy ship.
Use wisely... or just let them shoot at whatever the hell they want. In the case of the latter, remember to pray!
