Warship Redux

1. 2. 5 compatible WARSHIP REDUX is a major military vessel overhaul that adds 8 new ships and alters the construction system so that new ship classes are available at each spaceport level. Not save game compatible, you must start a new game for the mod to take effect. PLEASE RATE: need just a few more to get the mod’s score listed. ##### SHIPS ##### *8 New ships added: all carefully balanced so as not to be out of place with the vanilla ship types. All species types (including plantoids) are covered. SCOUT: A small recon ship; very lightly armed but fast and cheap to make. Ideal for checking out nearby star systems for the presence of hostiles. FRIGATE: The largest non-capital warship; essentially a stronger and heavier alternative to the destroyer. ESCORT CARRIER: A light carrier vessel; used as a platform for multiple strike craft, the Escort Carrier is a smaller and cheaper alternative to the massive Fleet Carrier. HEAVY CRUISER: Larger and more heavily armored than the standard Cruiser, the Heavy Cruiser neatly fills the gap between its smaller brother and the Battleship. FLEET CARRIER: A massive vessel used as a platform for strike craft. Expensive and time consuming to build but tremendously powerful in combat. DREADNAUGHT: A super-sized version of the Battleship; only the wealthiest and most powerful empires can afford to utilize these mighty weapons as their flagships. SWACS: The Spaceborne Warning and Control Ship; this is essentially a corvette-sized electronic warfare vessel capable of mounting an Aura Effect item normally reserved for large capital ships. NOTE: Auto-generated ships do not mount aura items; you must manually add them in the ship designer. FLEET TENDER: A larger cousin of the SWACS, Fleet Tenders may mount up to 2 Aura Effect items at once. With repair and capacitor aura effect items both installed the Fleet Tender can keep a strike force in the field almost indefinitely. NOTE: Auto-generated ships do not mount aura items; you must manually
