	Taiidan - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Taiidan are the antagonist faction in the original Homeworld game and are the opponents to the Kushan exiles, returning from their banishment.
		The Taiidan Empire was founded more than three thousand years prior to the events in the game Homeworld, after a large galactic conflict caused hundreds of smaller governments, who had achieved interstellar travel through contact with the Bentusi, to consolidate into several large empires.
		Fearing that the Taiidan would eventually come to dominate the Hiigaran Empire, and dissatisfied with the decision made by the Council, the Hiigaran Empire launched a military strike against the Taiidan homeworld.

		The Taiidan are made renowned for their iron-fisted rule during the GSY 6497-9510, and their near singlehanded destruction of the Kushan Empire.
		The Taiidan Commonwealth has shown itself as the promise of a better future, a freer world, not bound by family ties or by clans, or by technology to machines, but all for peace, in the strength of arms.
		The Taiidan Army is built on the tactical codex of heavy armor formations supported by heavy infantry, dislodging enemy units by overwhelming force via well trained forces.

	Homeworld - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		After the departure of the Mothership, Kharak was attacked by the Taiidan, a large interstellar empire who now controlled the planet of Hiigara and viciously opposed the exiles' attempt to reclaim their homeworld owing to the exile's contractual details, which by now were several millenia old and completely forgotten.
		The attack, however, provided dissidents within the Taiidan Empire a tangible reason to begin open and hostile rebellion against their existing Imperial government.
		Over remaining levels of the game, the Kushan encounter other alien races, including the benevolent group of traders known as the Bentusi (The Unbound), and the hostile, fanatical and enigmatic Kadeshi, who seem to be a branch of the original Hiigarans that left the group during their exile.

		Knowing that the bulk of the Taiidan Navy was currently poised at the Hiigaran border, the Hiigarans utilized the advantage of their Far Jump capabilities and struck deep behind the Taiidan lines.
		The Taiidan had developed weapons that would cleanse the entire surface of a planet of any sign of life, and they were both prepared and horribly eager to use them upon those who had slain their emperor.
		Taiidan was an Empire without an emperor, and there was little effect any sanction could have upon them given their complete lack of structure or hierarchy.

		The Taiidan one is sometimes called The Toaster.
		They're fantastic when mixed with Taiidan's lesser Defender if you're fielding enemy fighter swarms - but lacking any offensive weapons themselves, are utterly useless on their own.
		By contrast, the Taiidan Shield Frigate emits a giant bullet repulsive field that repels all weapon fires It extends in an invisible sphere around the ship, and blocks something like 80-90% of all enemy weapons fire except for except ion beams, space mines and missiles.

		The Taiidan Assembly of Lords, a token political body whose task was merely to "rubber stamp" edicts from the desk of the Emperor, even began to question some of Khaldeesh's more outrageous demands.
		Entire rebellious asteroid cities were exterminated when navy corvettes destroyed their life support systems, and the slow death throes of millions were recorded, to be shown as an example to the rest of the population.
		Most analysts consider the worst to be over for the Taiidan Republic, and the odds are good for new prosperity to begin, as stability breeds economic confidence and diplomacy replaces open warfare.

		Though certainly not necessary, it's a nice steal and serves to remove the missile destroyer from battle.
		As you're battling the Taiidan attack force, start moving your fleet (including the Kuun-Lan) close to the sensor grid.
		Once the Taiidan attack force is small enough that the Kuun-Lan and a few frigates can serve as defense, move your ACV group and frigate group into the sensor group ahead of the Kuun-Lan's position.

		This, and the relatively slow tracking of the turret guns, means that despite its heavy offensive punch and deep armor plating, the Kudarrk should not be deployed without an escort of fighters or multi-gun corvettes.
		The Kudaark is named after a large burrower from the northern forests of Taiidan.
		Since the array of heavy turrets on the Taiidan assault frigate is arranged around the nose section, it made for a logical comparison, as approaching the creature or the frigate head-on is a definite tactical error, which one only makes once.

		Cooperating with various other races they had met in their travels, the fleet has grown to a respectable size and now uses a lot of new technologies.
		With the Taiidan and Turanic forces weak, it is up to the Hiigaran people to stop this menace before it spreads throughout the galaxy.
		The beast uses a lot of the older units from the original, but again, they can benefit from various new technology upgrades and also have a few new abilities up their sleeves.

		Despite what I've said earlier, I realized why the Taiidan Mothership was horrific to the eye; whoever paints the Taiidan fleet should have a serious discussion with the business end of a Ion Frigate.
		Chances are nuking the harvesters has resulted in one or two wings of Taiidan frigates to notice you.
		What I generally did on this level was patrolled with my fighter wing, engaging small targets, and drawing larger targets back to the mothership to get smoked by the small fleet of Ion Frigates I am building up.

		It might just be me, but it seems that the Taiidan ships are a little more complicated in construction that the Kushan.
		Side by side, on the whole, the Taiidan ships look more detailed, simply because were were able to milk more detail out of the same amount of texture space.
