Any Doctor Who mods?
 

Daleks
Time Lords
Cybermen
Santarans
Routans

etc.

the Tartarus would have to be a 1kt ship with built in 255 movement and bridge, and would have to have lots of zero KT components specially designed for it.

time lord troop units would be incredibly badass, but would take forever to build just 1. darlek troop units would be good ground forces, but more affordable.

hmmm..

Oh, rofl. I thought you were looking for a modder who's day job was physician. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif

How about all of the different Earth era's space fleets? Seems like every time the Doctor, no matter which one it was, went to Earth in the future, there were always different ships being used. If a mod can't be made, how about some shipsets?

What the heck are you guys talking about? http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...s/confused.gif

Ok... I see... not "Any Doctor... Who mods," but "Any Doctor Who mods." Nevermind. Silly people and your archaic TV shows. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/tongue.gif

The only problem is that the only known Tardis is stuck in the Police Callbox shape. Who knows what the newer model Tardis's are capable of shaping into. Also, I still haven't seen most of the older episodes, so I don't know if the Time Lords even use spacecraft besides the Tardis. Nice picture, though.

Re: Any Doctor Who mods?
 

Well, the Master's Tardis has turned into things like a grandfather clock, statue, column, and airplane. And there was a brief period with the sixth Doctor, when he repaired the chameleon circuit and the Tardis looked like a piano.

Ah, I miss that show...

Re: Any Doctor Who mods?
 

I think you could use a tech area that gives you the "geometrically transcendental" mount, which divides all component sizes by a number (larger as the tech advances).

A time ship would also have good cloaking levels and good temporal scanning levels. You'd need good temporal scanners to detect them. The Time Lords are psychic as well as time-sensitive, and you seem to need both to be able to pilot a time ship.

Thing is, the Time Lords don't want to rule the galaxy. I suppose though that you could make a scenario where everyone else is an unenlightened powermonger type trying to conquer them. I don't know that SE4 is particularly well equipped to handle it, though. Brute force can't really work - there always has to be some sort of gimmick or ruse to enable force to be used.

The government channel here in Australia is showing all the Dr Who episodes from the beginning. I expect it's going to take them a few years to get through them all. Currently they are up to the second doctor and the Ice warriors of Mars have appeared. I was just thinking yesterday that maybe the Tardis travels to alternate futures as well. That would explain why human ships and technology are different each time he goes to the future. The timeline he is in now has matter transporters.

I think that Ruatha mods and he's a doctor... http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">That's not quite true. Several of the Doctor's companions have been able to operate the Tardis, and most, if not all of them, weren't psychic. And all were human, except for the red-headed guy who was recruited by teh Master to kill the Doctor, and who later switched sides. He was from another race, but looked human.

Re: Any Doctor Who mods?
 

The Daleks were as single minded as the Borg, except they wanted to kill everyone.

Humans can operate the controls and do the calculations, but there are several bits where it helps a lot to be time-sensitive, and I think it might be required for some of the engineering. There are also some times when other races are trying to develop time ships, and they need time sensitives to help them pilot them, such as the fun episode where the TARDIS ends up at imaginary space/time coordinates between universes, because some renegade slavers who don't entirely understand what they're trying to do have a ship with a hull made of Dwarf Star Alloy which is sucking everything around it closer and closer. They have enslaved members of a time-sensitive race whom they need to be able to pilot their ship properly. The whole theme of people trying to do fantastic things, often involving time travel, but not really understanding, is pretty common in the series.

And, there were several non-human companions, too. Not that many of them were time-sensitive.

Those episodes from the earlier Doctors had much better stories than the later episodes. I like the third and fourth Doctors best. The special effects were not very good but the stories were original and interesting. Later on, with the sixth and seventh Doctors, the special effects were a bit better (but still not good) and the stories weren't as well-written.

When I was a kid, I stayed up late and watched every episode. It was my favorite show back then. Everybody else in my family was asleep, and I'd be sitting at the TV alone and totally engrossed in it. It was wonderful! Ah, the memories. The episodes with the second Doctor were so funny! And with the third Doctor, all those aliens invading London and UNIT combating them... All those adventures with the fourth Doctor. I was so sad when the fourth Doctor fell off the radio telescope and died, or, regenerated into the fifth Doctor... but then shortly after that, the show went downhill... I kept watching until the very end. That was a long time ago.

Re: Any Doctor Who mods?
 

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">I envy you watching the episodes as a kid. I don't remember exactly when I first learned of Dr. Who, but I remember in my early teen years trying to watch the episodes on my local PBS station in Oklahoma. Unfortunately, they only showed the 30 minute episodes, like they would show them in England. I couldn't watch it every Saturday night, and it was disconcerting watching an episode, miss a week or two of it, then find myself in a whole new storyline. So I stopped watching it. It wasn't until my 20's when I was stationed in Texas that I saw my first full combined "episode", and fell in love with the Doctor. I even remember the episode; it was "Genesis of the Daleks". I wish that would come out on DVD. I only have a few episodes in that format. I used to belong to the Columbia House Dr. Who club, so I have several of the episodes on tape, but not that one. Plus, something about those tapes I don't understand. Some of them would be of the combined segments to make a full episode, or they would be the separated segments as you would have originally seen it aired. I don't understand the rationale of that at all. To me, I'd rather see the combined whole episodes, as that's what they're showing now, if you can catch it on PBS. I got BBCA, but they haven't been showing Dr. Who or Red Dwarf, at least not when I can watch it.

And Kamog, I agree with you. My favorite Doctor's were 3 and 4. My wife's was Peter Davidson, when she would watch it. As a matter of fact, growing up, I thought Tom Baker was the only Doctor, because it seemed every time I watched an episode (which I already said was few and far between), it was a Tom Baker episode. I was surprised to find out that there were 3 Doctors before him.
