#1 Star Trek Armada 2
Posted: Fri Sep 16, 2005 7:45 pm
We all know the beloved Armada series of Star Trek RTS games, and how Armada 1 was the pinnacle of balance in the series.
Well, I am working on modding out STA2, for personal reasons. I've already managed to mod in the Connie Refit, Miranda, Excelsior, Nova, Ambassador, New Orleans and the Norway class ships. I'm going to be adding the Galaxy X, Centaur, Constellation and maybe one or two others soon enough.
What I'm looking to do now, is balance out the ship's various strengths and weaknesses, making it more about having a balanced fleet, than building large amounts of Soverigns, Negh'vars, etc.
So, what I need some assistance in deciding on how to properly mod the ship ODF files to make them more balanced.
I'm not going to place Connie Refit's with the same weapons power as a Soverign, for example, though I do want to improve the firepower of the Defiant class.
Also, I after I have the Federation done, I'm going to modify the Romulan, Cardassian and Klingons, adding in a few ships if I find appropriate models, (I'd love a Reman Warbird for the romulan side, minus the medusa radiation weapon), and converting the Borg and Species 8472 to the Empire and the Rebels.......
So..suggestions? comments? tips to those who have modded STA2 before?
