suggestion

after 8 hours of downloading the file twice i have some suggestions .... first i have to say the mod is the coolest Ai , interface and researching Mod ive ever seen !!!!!!!!!!!!! but there should be more vessels (instead of more races) from films perhaps, like excelsior or miranda class ... , some future ships ( like soulwolf class ) ... and perhaps you shouldnt have used the armada-1-like textures and 3dmodels ... and the maps should be a little bit bigger .

if i had a good 3dmodeling programm i would help ... but i havent ... so i just can "bleat" ... its just a pity ...
but im looking forward to the future and it is a really good mod and thanks for giving us all many many hours of good playing time ... .

hehe, thx
in the future versions (all released during the next months) will have more ships for the current races, we are not finished yet.
for the suggested ship types, i personally don't think starfleet begins to produce old ships like the miranda again. instead of the excelsior we will add the exelsior-b with tachy's design.

for the armada-1-like textures and 3dmodels. optec does a really great job there. we want to give the game a look that is more conform with starfleet command III for example. i personally don't think armada 2 was a dignified successor of armada 1.

Thanks for your thoughts about this.

maybe any ships from computer games, you could put in the mod too.

nope, we don't put every ship in the mod, that would end with that the federation has the most ships and the game get bloated with resulting that there is no strategy play possible anymore.

well the fed needs more canon ships and posibly a varinet or 2 like diferent cost almost same ship but diferent model slightly and a bit diferent stats. but all should have a varient or 2. give the fed an all out awsome ship give the borg there huge ass cube give the romulans the reman ship from nemesis and make um something for the klingons.

sorry, but this wouldn't fir woth the Fleet Operations balancing system.. we want every ship to be special and not just a clone of another one with different models.. i know there are much more Federation vessels then Klingon or Borg vessels, but as said before, this is a rts game, not a Star Trek encyclopedia. The Federation has more vessels then the other races now (becouse of Warp-in) and won't have any more (except the ExcelsiorII class, which will be included in beta2)
There also won't be any super vessels.. perhaps the romulan Tavara, but no super Federation cannon vessels or mass destruction vessels

What would be a super Federation cannon vessel? Defiant? The Enterprise? Something else?
