Phoenix-D is on a distinguished road
Default Re: Star Wars Mod - II (Sci-Fi Xover Mod)

I've started work on a Battletech mod while I wait for SE4Gold (unlike TechMod, I don't think BT will use many, if any, of the new stuff).

So, should I try to make it mesh with this mod as well? If so.. is there anything I can download to get an idea on what I need to balance against? I don't have a heck of a lot of information available, so I can be decently flexible..just trying to get the feel of it down, not the numbers.

Would it even add anything to the mod? BT focues more on ground invasions, so strong troops. Good fighters as well, and if I can figure out a way to model them, dropships (large shuttles, esentially- they do all the lifting to and from planets).

Other characteristics:
-No shields
-Ablative-type armor (the troop armor can be damaged by rifle fire, yet take direct hits from hypersonic slugs..the warpship armor is similar)
-Fairly slow on a strategic scale, middling speed in combat (hard to do, seeing that afterburner abilities don't stack)
-Weapons are powerful but fairly inaccurate

More later..
