[MOD] Sci-Fi at War

Posted on Thursday, February 2, 2017

Mot sure if I want to wait for Crusade to redo this MOD or to release it in Nexus... but here's a WIP/preview of something I've been working on for the past year:

Sci-fi at war.......

Story line:

The war is going badly for the Dregin. Terran Alliance's first fleet liberated Earth and is now launching a 'crusade' against the Dregin Core worlds.  Facing imminent defeats, the Dregin activated their precursor doomsday super weapon, a device called Space/Time Oscillation Bomb.  Instead of MAD (mutually assured destruction), the detonation of the Oscillation bomb caused a massive temporal-dimensional quake, fusing multiple parallel universe(s) together....  Now multiple parallel Earth civilizations and multiple new alien species awaits your discovery....  That is if you don't get destroy first by these new races.....

1. A... hopefully.... transparent story line to tide in GCIII and multiple new Civilizations (and muliple planet Earths) in this mod.  The idea of a Space/Time Oscillation Bomb / fusing parallel universe is heavily borrowed from an old Japanese Anime: Super Dimension Orguss.  The idea of mixing different anime/sci-fi shows together for a game came from the Japanese Game series Super Robot Wars.

2. 37 new races (unique ships and custom races) although I will most likely omit any Star Trek related races when i release this.  I suggest using Horemvore/Airmaster's Star Trek Mod instead.  Airmaster is a good friend and I highly recommend his mod (see below for compatibility)

3. Compatible with GRM and Star Trek Mod (tested up to version 2.0)... well.. compatible as in I've been playing my races against GRM and Star Trek Mod for some time now   Your mileage may vary

4. Seeking permission to incorporate a few custom ship designs into this mod.  Emails are being sent to creators of those ships (say... who created the System Commonwealth ships... hint hint )

5. No custom weapons and SFX... or rather, I should say no custom weapons and SFXs are included in the release MOD.  I did create a few 'super weapons' for specific ships (like the Macross Cannon for the Macross SDF1), but I think they are overpowered and I will not include them with the release

6. Assuming I got all the permissions for #4, the MOD is ready to release... HOWEVER given the release timeline for the offiical  Crusade DRM and Dev's promise to include creation of custom Civilizations and ship sets, I will most likely wait until the release of Crusade before release this to public.  Some of my ship sets are up on steam already for download if you care for an advanced look.

Races:
0. Federation of United Space.  My own race.  Ship sets include ships from different Civilizations.  This race is my MOD's primary universe Human fraction.  the idea behind this race is that they manage to explore this new fractured universe and unit different races together
