I'm still haven't played a ton of TA yet. One question I have is whether there are hidden bonuses that can be found in many of the levels by doing extra exploring. I thought I read somewhere that there were but now I can't seem to find a thread about it. In the tutorial level there are weapons that you can find that are clearly marked as secondary objectives. In other levels I've done some poking around in dead-end corridors but I've never found anything.

Some campaigns have absolutely nothing, like Secrets of the Dark Age and Stardock Raid (I think).
One of the campaigns that has a bunch is Moons of Nachot-ugo. You'll typically find them in the middle of rooms that are somewhat out of the way, or in front of wall-mounted computer consoles.
I'm doing Narvidian Dawn now, which says there are 32, so roughly 2 per mission, but I've been too busy just completing the missions to really look.

They are all over in Narvidian Dawn. We're still working to get them added to all the maps.

Guess, I'll have to get my squad ready for Narvidian Dawn then.

I can remember from the TA campaign we played the other month, there were a number of hidden goodies in at least one of the campaigns we played there. I found a few +100 Honor and +1 XP ... but I can't remember exactly which campaigns they were in. I've been meaning to sit down and do a full test of every level of every campaign to highlight things like that, but life keeps distracting me  |

Someone should write a walk through ...

I've been playing through Moon of NU and wandering all over the map. Still haven't found any of the goodies mentioned by Cyrus, but I haven't finished it yet. Maybe I'll share them if I find them. |

The ones I can remember are in the Gatecrasher mission. If you don't go for the nearest corridor and take either the top or bottom corridors from the open area, you'll run into bonuses in the first room on each side.

Someone should write a walk through ... If you and Cory didn't make such damned addictive games, I would have sat down and made some walkthroughs AGES ago. The problem is that I start working on the walkthrough, but then get so engrossed with the actual killing and mission that I forget to do the screenshots needed for me to remember where stuff is! I'll get my current squad ready for a top-to-bottom campaign run. |

Yeah, same here contributor. I've found a couple secrets, but not too many. There are some in a couple of the missions in the campaigns we did during the last challenge, but I can't remember which in particular. We all should work together to create a walkthrough of the campaigns. It could be fun to work together on a secret hunt, and I bet we could find everything without too much trouble! Who's in? Haha. |

Of course I'm in ... you know I'm a sucker for any of these types of things. You take your squad of Hydras ... I'll take my squad of scouts and we'll see who can be fastest at finding the secrets <grin>

Well then, consider this a formal acceptance of your challenge! Well, not really, but I found a secret that I sharing would be fun. I'll go make a thread for secrets and maybe we can "collect them all," to steal something from pokemon. *edit* Built up an OP and posted a secret to the new secret hunters thread in TA's T&T forum. Feel free to contribute your own secrets! |
