Default Re: StarFire Mod v-Beta 2

Hey guys, its been a loooonnnng time since I have played any SE4 and was pleased too see some people actually trying too make an Starfire mod. I have been a long time Starfire fan and I would like too help out in anyway I can too make this mod possible.

First though, I must ask, what is this UTM? I only have SF 3rd edtion and a few other expansion maunuals so can someone give me a little insite on this? Also, I keep hearing over the Internet that they made a 4th Version, is this Version a lot different then the 3rd? I heard it had a lot simpler rules for Strategic play.

I really don't have any rule suggestions for this, but I would like too make a suggestion about implementing Ic into Tech Level IND2. how about making a Lower grade Ic (maybe call it Ice where "e" means "Early") where it has severe limitations on movement compared too other engines in the game. Not sure how too do that yet though.

The only other thing I could help out at is Ship artwork. I use a 3D program called Milkshape 3D that I use extensively and I always thought about making Starfire ships with it. Granted, we don't really know what the ships in Starfire look like, but what I could do is make some Generic looking vessels where all races have the same style, but each race would be differentiated by Logos/Color Stripes too represent a different race of ships. Kinda like how Homeworld has their ships in that game. Any opinons about this?
