WHAT IS ONSLAUGHT v4.1?
Onslaught is an unofficial modification for the game Homeworld:Cataclysm. It is a tribute to the Homeworld series using almost all of the "un-flown" ships in Homeworld and Homeworld:Cataclysm. These include the Kadesh (inc MS), the HW Ghostship, the JunkYardDawg, most of the HW Derelicts, the Nomad Moon and more besides. Onslaught unites these ships and creates an entirely new game. The "Beast" in HWC provides an excellent excuse for this bizarre mix of ship types!
WHAT DO YOU NEED TO USE IT?

If you do not already have it the patch can be obtained from http://www.sierra.com. In order to play Onslaught against an Internet or LAN opponent you must both be using exactly the same version. You can tell which version you currently have when you run Cataclysm with Onslaught installed; on the main game menu you
