Re: *** Star Trek Mod Discussion ***
SJ - Interesting idea for the nascelles but I think the propulsion model with stick with the SE:IV standard except larger ships will require additional engines per move. It will follow the same level as the mounts for weapons do.
Light Mount - 1 engine per move - 150 to 300kT
Medium Mount - 2 engines per move - 400 to 600kT
Heavy Mount - 3 engines per move - 800 to 1000kT
I believe this system will work towards balancing the firepower/kT of the ships and make it quite feasible to use ships of all sizes for the duration of the game.
The damage idea though I am interested in. I haven't experimented much with the different armor options but it seems like your idea is quite fitting with Star Trek. I think I will try a few experiments and see how it goes.
The forum has been down almost all day so I haven't been able to check for any replies so that's why I haven't made any comments earlier.
What do you think of some of my test images? I think they turned out pretty good and once I do some touch ups even better. I even put together a Klingon Vor'Cha Attack cruiser and it looks good too!
