Taking this board more as a "suggestion" board. Two of these are close to bugs, but I'll put them here because they are, at any rate, bugs that don't affect game-play.
1) Does Major Luthor become the Commander of the Righteous Fallen? There is no dialogue that tells us as much, but he certainly doesn't seem to be when we first encounter him in the tutorial. However, later on, it seems like he is the one giving all of the orders and he's located on the Bridge not the Death Angels Squadron Command Center. Especially in the end when the bridge is attacked as the command center of the ship it seems like this is the case. There should be some dialogue that clears this up. "I see you got your own promotion Major." "Yes in the final minutes of the fight agains the xeno a strike team of Goliath's reached the bridge and killed Commander Now-I'm-Dead, just before the xeno ship exploded." Anyways, if Major Luthor comes into command of the ship it's a pretty auspicious event that shouldn't go unaddressed.
2) When our intrepid Captain makes it back from Mok Prime there is no dialogue that tells us that Narvidian Boarding ships have attack the Righeous Fallen. We're just told that we have to go to deck 7 to hold them off, without reference to how they got there. I just went through there twice and didn't see that piece of information. Maybe I missed it somewhere though? Eventually we see the graphic with the ships and figure it out, but it wasn't clear upfront.
If you haven't played the last level there is a SPOILER in here so read at your own risk.
3) This is more just a suggestion. On the final level when N appears there is a golden opportunity to reverse and replay some of the dialogue from when we came to "rescue" her on Leo Major. Some of the earlier dialogue could even be reworked to make it match up nicely. In the earlier encounter I've always felt like the Captain should respond with something like "Aren't you a little short-handed..." when he's told that he has simply come to help. There's lots of room for a little banter.
Anyways, Those are just my ideas for a little plot polish. I know that plot is not as front-and-center here as it is in HoS.
