What if they cloaked they star?

they are not that smart, nor do they have the potential to be. if they could be made to create stellar constructions, then we could probably make them construct a base at 6,6 and cloak the star. as it is, they cant even convert astroid belts.

the AI will not create bases anywhere except in orbit of their own colonies.

Yes I found that ship in 3dcafe and thought it may be a good adition to the vorlon shipset. Forgot to mention that.
BTW the mesh didn't include a readme I'll have to check there again if you need the author for credit.

Hi everybody,
the Monster Mod is nearing its completion for the first stage. There is still a lot that can be done, but I feel comfortable enough to publish a first Version for testing very soon. I still need some pictures of monsters and also a race portrait. I am totally lacking in the arts department, so if anybody wants to contribute something, I'd be thankful.

I haven't read over the thread all that much, but what is the general idea behind space monsters? Is it like a neutral empire who protects their "habitat" by force with some powerful natural tech?

Please remind of the pics you need. Some new kind of mosters or variations of some of the ones I had posted?

I still wish to make the dragon shipset someday (souds so far

), so it wouldn't be apropiate to use the portrait I had shown you. Any idea of the kind of moster would be apropiate as race portrait?

Are you upgrading the mod to Gold Version?
I think it mixes different sizes and designs better and that will be very helpful for this mod. It does not longer allways pick the largest hull.
Any idea for "organic infestations"?

And you can give them stellar manipulation prevention abilities to their facilities, so their hidden homeworld cannot be destroyed.
