Deathstalker
Your mount mode is working well on v1.78,no errors, played 3 games with it. Used it in TDM mode

.Im really looking forward for your teck mode to work with this too. A suggestion, on vechicle size, there was a mode I think ( d mode),to have special ships to have internal shield regeneration & combat sensers %, How about this?.

You could go with:

Shield of Faith - enhanced shields
Breastplate of Righteousness - enhanced armor
Sword of the Spirit - enhanced PD (Roman short sword tended to be used defensively) or just improved weapon mount
Helmet of Salvation - improved ECM?
Belt of Truth - improved long-range scanners?
Boots of Peace - reduced supply consumption or improved speed?

Additionally:

Fruit of the Spirit - improved solar collection or improved supply storage?

Just some thoughts, don't know if they are all possible.

Sounds Great!

Or how about...

Fruit of the Loom: Giant tighty-whities to be used as solar sails or for scooping up up resources...or simply adding a combat bonus by raising ship crew's self-esteem (due to pride in the gigantic Y-fronts with which their ships are swathed).

Noticed a few bugs...

Shield mounts can only be applied to regular shields, not phased shields - did you intend this? (Does shield generation modifier not work for phased shields or something?)

All of the Crystalline shield mounts have the same two-letter code.

Not really a bug, but some of your Short Names are longer than the Long Names!

Also a great way to 'hide' those huge cannons!

(Sorry DS - I couldn't pass this up! Taz's are like that.)

"Shield mounts can only be applied to regular shields, not phased shields - did you intend this? (Does shield generation modifier not work for phased shields or something?)"

Just tested, regular Phased shields V have 375 points, with mount they have 656. Just tested in High Tech starting game with a light cruiser and one Phased Shields V with the 'Hard Shields' mount. Ed, were you using a modd? It's possible that is changed the Phased Shield family number (should work for any shield in the '11' family)

Noticed a few more technical errors myself (both Torpedo mounts have same name). Will spruce up and add a few new mounts and release sometime soon.

As to new religious mounts suggested, the 'Roman Sword' type one for PD sounds interresting. Unfortunately we cannot affect ECM, Scanners or Supplies. (only way to affect ECM is to add a To Hit bonus for the weapon, therefore 'lowering' enemy ECM.)

Sounds like some great stuff. As soon as I'm done with the next few days of school, I am SO back into the thick of things with SEIV. Your mount mods have always been a joy to play with, DS!

Did they ever fix that thing with the damage/range mounts not working with seekers?

P.S. I have a friend who works at Fruit HQ out in Kentucky...they just recently emerged from Chapter 11. I'm sure everyone wanted to know that.
