Stargate: War Begins is a full conversion for the awesome tactical fleet simulator Nexus: The Jupiter Incident. We intend to recreate the feeling of the hit Sci-fi Tv shows Stargate SG-1, Stargate Atlantis and Stargate Universe. Our goals are to implement all of the ships seen in the series, and the original Stargate movie, and to release a full single player campaign, with configurable ships, and all the oppurtunities Nexus can provide.

So are these bad boys going to be the equivalent to Nexus:TJI commando ferries or bombers?
Commando ferry and we will be using them even for other things in campaign.
@Monkeyshinex: There might be commando jumpers for Atlantis later.
Yeah Commando ferries finally! ... Good job guys well done!
what can commando do ? is it really so strong ? and if yes, why ? :)
The Commando Ferry in vanilla Nexus:TJI carries 10 commandoes who, if they successfully board an enemy ship (a big if), will start to damage devices on the ship that you've targeted. This cannot be avoided and will occur over time. In singleplayer, they can also trigger certain storyline mission objectives.
The downsides are that the Commando ferry can't pass through a ship's shields, nor is it very resistant to enemy flak fire (whether from ships or fighters). So they are a very clumsy way of damaging a ship's devices. They'll be killed sooner or later even if they successfully board, so calling them back is important when they take too many casualties.
