Quick synopsis

This mod introduces the colonial and cylon factions to the Sins of the Fallen universe. Both races will be playable with any of the planets, addons, and races included in Sins of the Fallen including the stock races. Both the colonial and cylon's factions will be balanced against the stock factions to support this approach.

Colonial Fleet

Relying on heavily armored and armed ships the colonial fleet is always on the defense looking for cylon incursions. Lacking shields of any kind Battlestar Point Defense systems are used to intercept incoming weapons and minimize damage to nearby frigates and cruisers supporting the fleet.

Colonial Fleet

Doctrines:

Reformist - You believe disagreements can be resolved politically. You are more likely to build alliance with the majority of factions making it easier to reach cease fires and pacts. Your Titan is more defensive and able to act as a mobile fleet command when needed.

Hardliner - You believe all Cylons are Toasters and can't be trusted. You also have a anti-Xeno bigotry that extends to all non-human factions. Your Titan is heavily offensive capable of inflicting mass damage.

	Cetus class Titanstar Doctrine: Hardliner Abilities: She Won't Fail Us, Flak Shells, Maison Radiation Sweeps, Authorize nuclear barrage, Blaze of Glory
	Jupiter class Titanstar Doctrine: Reformist Abilities: Load Nuclear Ordinance, Flak Shells, Instant Build Fighters, Vetern Pilots, Fleet CIC
	Gallactica/Columbia class Battlestar Abilities: Colonize, Flak Shells, Non-Integrated Computers, Nuclear Defense

Looks awesome Z.

But I can barely see the "BLOOD" word on you game stamp.
I see "Sins of the Fallen and Chrome"

I like that texture.

Thanks, I'm anticipating it won't take long to finish up the colonials cuz I'm not going to rework much of the research tree for them.

On the BLOOD thing, ya I put these together real quick today. I need to tweak the text layers so it shows up a bit better.

Well in general shape it look similar, image attached, the only problem i don't have texture for it and i never find anything that would allow me to make one by copy/paste

2 version one with all arms the same length and the second with 2 the same and the rest smaller

edit:

about you'r intro:

Jupiter/Galactica class Battlestar, as far i know this are 2 separate model, and you missing colonization ability.

Ok, so when i have some free time will try to make something decent for the Guardian MK2, as i write it will be based on Boomer class texture, about starbase do you know that i actually made an attempt to make cylon colony

Sounds cool if we can find a texture that works on this.

Fixed on the colony ability.

It depends on the source material if Galactica is actually a class or not. It's also referred to as Columbia or Jupiter class as well. I'll probably go with Galactica class right now to keep it simple.

Galactica has her turrets back. She's a little higher poly but not too far out of line with what I've put in on other capitalships...

Successfully updated karma reason!

Pegasus class gets it turrets back too...

Successfully updated karma reason!

Thor class battlestar...

Successfully updated karma reason!

This will be the new Valkyrie class battlestar with lots of turrets... I just need to add some textures.

Edit - added some textures today. This isn't an in game shot yet just a projection. I still need to prepare the mesh and game textures.

Successfully updated karma reason!

Just a bump as I put a fairly decent texture on the Valkyrie today

Successfully updated karma reason!

Damn Straight you did, very nice work there Zomb

Successfully updated karma reason!

really like the texturing. especially on what looks like the corrected Valkyrie model. How did you get that anyway? (rhetorical question).

is it too early to ask: can I use the new textures/models when they are done?

feel free to use anything from the Colonials on Sins of a Sci-Fi Multiverse (if you haven't already, one or two of those capital abilities look familiar )

Well the model is actually made by kyogre12 and hasn't been released yet. The other Valkyrie is lacking in visible turrets.

Sure, I don't mind.

Would be a coincidence unless from Sot13t. I made a rough design of the abilities above excluding Ram and Nuke during a break at work. I'll be honest I haven't looked at your mod as of yet and just assumed it included Sot13t without any significant modifications. I'll take a look at it when I get a chance.

Wow Koobalt... as a Cylon fan, the Colony looks amazing.... I really hope you can find a texture for it, because it would be fantastic if it was incorporated into the game.... wow

Successfully updated karma reason!

Looks supurb! Genuinely cannot wait.

Quick question, though - will you be keeping the names Galactica and Pegasus on the pods, or will you remove them to allow for a more realistic feel?

Wasn't counting Nuke and Ram. The non-networked systems and stealth bomber, although now I can't remember if i changed the former into a passive from an active like i was supposed to. hmmm.

We changed the balance, added abilities, research, ships, etc. Had to, otherwise wouldn't stack up well against Star Wars races. And if you check it out, please leave some feedback. Always welcomed from longtime modders like yourself.

Successfully updated karma reason!

@Yanxa - Not sure on that yet. They may just become Galactica and Pegasus class ships as some lore suggests.

@philothanic - Gotcha, my thought on the non-networked systems would be a passive too that prevents non-ultimate disables.

Successfully updated karma reason!

Here's the further reduced Cygnus. I plan on using this as a capital ship at the moment as I think it's a better model and texture than my other choices for a 5th slot.

Successfully updated karma reason!

I also updated the Valkyrie picture with an in game shot.

Looks great. One question though the Nova class battlestars were Flagship of the colonies it should have a type of moral boost as an ability.
