Ages of Space Empires (Space Age preview)
 

This is the first preview release of the Ages of Space Empires mod. I'm releasing the Space Age Preview to show off and test Space Age gameplay.

No AI has been written yet.

Weapons start off relatively weak. Ships with gun batteries perform better in fleets. Ramming should become a significant tactic once you research Armor, and boarding should be come another significant tactic once you research Troops.

I need your opinions on:
- Weapon balance (gun batteries and missiles should be balanced on the low end, while boarding and ramming should be much more effective)
- Resource Production (should be rather low, with remote mining being more effective than ground facilities)
- Colonial Expansion (should be slow and difficult to establish large off-world colonies)
- Ship Construction Rates (Orbital Space Yards should be more effective than ground-based ones)
- Troop Invasions (It should be more effective to invade homeworlds and large colonies than to glass them with bombs)

The Star Trek Mod Version 1.9.4.2 Deluxe
(29 megs)

The year is 2400.00 and the galaxy awaits exploration. Who could have ever imagine the wonders and horrors to come. Where peaceful exploration and diplomacy fail, conquest begins. Immerse yourself in the role of leader of a Star Trek Race. Explore the technology, build ships, and colonize the galaxy as you battle against other star trek races for absolute power.

1. This mod is designed for long term play therefore do not expect a fast paced game by turn 30 as the AI is designed to expand and research at a moderate pace.
2. The Star Trek Mod must follow the rules and physics of Space Empires IV. Therefore do not expect the mod to be pure Star Trek in any form. Although we have tried to make the mod as star trek as possible, some things such as warp drive and what not will not be like they are in the Star Trek universe.
3. Read the INSTALLATION and Before You Play documents before you play the mod. They Contains a helpful information.

Re: Space Empires IV: Data/Sound/Graphic
 

hello to all, my first post in this forum, im also new in SE4, and im impressed how such "old" game is soo cool http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/smile.gif, anyway i want to ask a question , "Damage Points To Kill One Population " variable dont affect the ground combat and the invasions??, i want to increase it to a value of arround 700-1000 to make more desirable the invasions instead of bombings (and also because bombings in real live arent so effective against population), of course some weapons should be increased in damage (like neutron bombs)

BTW im planning a SE4 mod based on Master of Orion 3, but also changing some gameplay features, i just hope i will finish it someday http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/smirk.gif

regards to all

Welcome to the forums.

No it doesn't affect ground combat so you can increase it as you wanted.

The main forum is generally the place to post modding questions etc., as this forum is reserved for uploading files etc. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...ies/tongue.gif
