📋 About This Mod
This mod adds a new battleship for the Paranids: The Hephaestus.
The Hephaestus is an XL class battleship for the Paranid factions.
It can be bought at the shipyard of the Holy Order and the Godrealm of Paranid - at least if you have a high enough reputation with one of those factions.
The ship is huge but still pretty fast and has very good offensive capabilities. But it´s also a large target and lacks adequate defenses.
Equpiment:
3 XL-Engines
3 XL-Shields
18 L-Turrets
24 M-Turrets
1 M-Landing Pad (without internal storage)
2 S-Landing Pads (with 4 internal storage slots)
Languages:
English
AI-Usage and Balancing
Jobs for the AI have been created. You will see the ship here and there and even the Paranid factions field them against each other from time to time.
Prerequisites:
X4: Foundations (base game is all you need, but DLCs are recommended by my side)
Installing:
You just extract the archive into your extensions folder.
It should then look like that: ..\X4 Foundations\extensions\lc4hunter_argon_hephaestus
Special Thanks:
I would like to thank the whole X4-Modding community on the forums and the Discord for their support! You are great!
