Default Andromeda Mod?

Here is a rich an deep area that we have not even began to explore yet.

I have been watching this show on DVD lately and I have to say that I am semi impressed with it. It seems to fit better with SEIV than most other Sci-Fi shows and lends a great story to boot.

I especially like some of the weapons they use,

Point Singularity Protectiles. (Mini Black Holes)
Gause Cannons
Point Defense Cannons
Missiles (Many types)
Nova Bombs (Star killers)
Fighters
Drones

At least 20 seperate differant races.

It might be an interesting challenge to consider. Hell I might even consider it. Right now I just do not know enough about the show to try. But perhaps there are those here that do.

Okay don't be posting just to knock the show....that's just immature not to mention that should have no baring on the shipsets themselves which are quite cool .

I agree with you atrocities Andromeda does certainly have a rich background of races and shipsets you could use including the Old Commonwealth High Guard.

The New Commonwealth High Guard and bad guy Collectors have a nice new fleet with lots of new ship designs and some old commonwealth style starships......not to mention Genknights, Templars, Resters, Neitcheans, Maggog and Pirates that all have their own shipsets to use ......mmm I drool just thinking about the possibilities.


Edit: OOOoh and the Deriva's and the Castallians and the Ne'Hollanders and various Neitchean prides which seem to have their own kinds of ship variants......oooh and the FTA

I am trying to discuss a mod not the show. I gave the show a chance and it impressed me enought to keep watching. Nuff Said.

Thanks Starhawk

Hmm...by the pacing of the show, it should be done within a reasonable time of SEV being released.

Yeah Andromeda was only contracted for 5 seasons and unless they come up with a totally new story arc they will not come back for a sixth.


So it'll end some time next year I would kind of be hoping for some andromeda universe ships before that

I've never even seen a complete episode yet. the show does seem interesting, but I don't know much about their storyline and the other info to make an informed opinion. But if a mod is made, I'll play it.

There are going to be a lot of changes in the way SE V uses images when compared to SE IV. Making ship sets for SE V will be decidely more difficult and as a result there will be few of them. I have no intentions of making any sets for SE V. To much work, to much money, and to much time will be required to do so. When something I do for fun becomes like a job, I drop it cold.
