Federation and Empire

Federation and Empire

This had begun as a collection of starships based upon the Star Fleet Universe and other sources and has now evolved into the development of a full complete mod.

What you can expect to see:
9 custom major races to choose:
United Federation of Planets; Klingon Empire; Romulan Star Empire; Kzinti Hegemony; Lyran Star Empire; Hydran Kingdom; Gorn Confederation; Tholian Holdfast; and the Interstellar Concordium.

8 Custom minor races.

Custom technology trees and weapons set up for each race.
Custom player useable shipstyles for every race.

2 Custom Immense Maps: "Federation and Empire" and "The General War"

Custom Campaign: "ISC Invasion"

Starship sets are being developed now and available for use here:

I gladly accept ideas for this mod and collect ships that you make to add to the ship sets. Feel free to share your ideas. I'd love to see your screenshots as well.

Why not do the Seltorians? Their ships look very unique and interesting to build. Nevermind everyone loves bugs in space. :D

They are going to be in the mod? I think as a minor race if I am not mistaken.

I am working on the new tech trees when I can at work since while at home I work on the custom ships. For the player usable shipstyles I still need to finish are the Lyrans, Tholians, Hydrans, and the Interstellar Concordium(ISC). The minors have custom ships too but it won't take long for all them since I don't need a full set for them. And thankfully the Lydran Democratic Republic(minor) will be complete the same time I finish the Lyran Star Empire.

Yes in fact their ships are already posted on the Library:

There will be a playable scenario and immense map with all the Galactic Powers in their appropriate teams.

Federation, Kzinti, Gorn, and Hydrans vs Klingons, Lyran, and Romulans. This scenario will be called, The General War.

I will also create a campaign with the Humans fighting against the ISC invasion that occurs after the General War.

Well here is a try at the Hydran Dreadnought. Tell me what you think.

I think it needs to be longer but as usual your work tends to give me ideas on how to proceed.

Oh I need a Lyran starfighter. I got a shuttle for them and I will pass on the Klingon starfighter to them since they purchased them. I know the Lyrans weren't big on starfighters according to the Star Fleet Universe but I think we need a custom starfighter for them.

The starfighters I need the most. I need one(or more) for Lyrans, Hydrans, and ISC. The Tholians I got covered.

Star Ship builders. I can handle all the minor races I have picked save 2.

If you want to help I need ships for the Paravians (Bird race) and Carnivons (canine race). I can provide the race logo for you.

Reason being I don't have really any reference material on how these ships looked like so they can be made from scratch. I need the following Hulls:

At least 1 tiny, small, medium, large, and Huge

At least 1 freighter and constuctor ship.

I will do my best with the Paravians, been doing my homework on them, cant find any pics of their ships but according to the literature the design is based on the Romulan older ships, with a more angular look to them, which makes sense since the Romulans had a thing for bird designs themselves and also the Paravians are neighbors and have a common enemy in the Gorn.

I would love the race logo if you want to send it to me.

Also how goes the Lyrans? I could not find a jewel that I liked to get that angular design that seems to be the basis of their ships. I hope you have better luck, which is more than likely since you are really good at this.

The updated Gorn Confederation will be posted to the Gorn ships so if you already downloaded them then just copy it from this reply. No need to download the Gorn ship again.

I'll certainly take the first 2. THe Paravian and Carnivon. Nice job.

As for your next ship I'll knock it out when the Lyran are done.

those shis are cool but not as cool as the Terran Republic's ships,








I still have more to make.
Reply #325 Top
I have a few more for yeah.

I tinkered with the cruiser, I have them both if nothing else this one could be a x-series ship or a variant.



Here is a dreadnought concept, I made it a little more stylish, figured technically they were more raider thus not many if any of these were built thus they would make them special.



Here is a concept I have for their destroyer, figure this is the spawn ship for them a fast attack raider so its a bit more streamlined.



I also have a cargo concept I not sure I like the wings I may look around for a more bulky jewel I wanted the ship to seem almost fat, keeping with the bird theme of the race.
