Homeworld is a good game which can be used to make SE mod!
But why didn't think about it sooner?

People have talked about it before but no one has ever stepped foward to make it.

*steps forward*

I shall make this. You shall love it.

Of course, by the time I'm done it'll be time to mod SEV.

My initial idea sets are implementable, although I'm working on making the warp point/hyperdrive reconcile at the moment. I'll post some solid features in the next few days once I get my head screwed back on.

My biggest idea is using fighters/corvettes/weapons that come from the games as well as "fictional" fighters/corvettes/weapons. Say, short-ranged Missile Gunships that can launch anti-frigate missiles, or Ion Pulse Fighters which can launch long-ranged anti-frigate pulses, and Missile Turrets for capital ships that can launch long-range anti-frigate missiles as opposed to the normal Destroyer cannons; Cannons fire faster, but Missiles are more powerful with a longer range and they're seekers, but they're also larger and more expensive.

Ion Pulse fighters? Definitly too high tech for HW1. Don't have 2.

On HW2 there is Pulsar corvets. They shoot somekind ion-pulses. But if I have understood, they are anti-corvets. At least I use them anti-corvets. They can use anti-frigate missions too.

HW2 Pulsar Gunships are anti-Corvette Corvettes that indeed use some sort of pulse cannon, but the color of the pulses is too dark to be a genuine ion pulse. What I meant with the Ion Pulse fighters are some sort of Bombers that are slower but tougher and stronger.

Never liked the cataclysm ships. Only played the demo, though.
