Status Update
We've been reworking the mission scripts and other design features of the actual game storyline, and we're glad to say that the campaign is coming along smoothly. The rework of the scripts have added a new level of depth to the storytelling narrative; and what's more it's seriously sped up the development progress for our mission creators.
Ships
GTB Hera
The GTB Hera is the heaviest Terran bomber, with a formidable array of no less than 10 forward mass-driver or particle hardpoints, and three point-defense turrets. But of course, that's only the half of it, as you can fit hundreds of short-range rockets or dozens of high-yield antimatter warheads into its enormous missile tubes. Created by blowfish, with maps courtesy of FreeSpaceKing.
(please note that these are only renders, they're not in-game shots)
Mission Screenshots
A few screenshots from the missions themselves.
Cutscenes
This is not a prerendered cutscene. By utilizing the powerful cutscene simulation functions added by the FreeSpace SCP team, we are able to use the game engine itself for certain plot sequences. In the future, we may even create interactive cutscenes and quicktime events.
An enormous Terran battleship turns a rogue Vasudan destroyer into space junk.
Music
Stay Tuned!
That's all for today folks. However, with progress accelerating on all fronts due to the summer holidays, expect much bigger updates in the future.

I don't see how this is relevant to Earth Defense.
I don't really know - the team needs to discuss this.
Does this game/mod cover what happened in Sol during the separation?
Because that time period needs some serious closure... XD
Looks great, by the way.
We are planning a campaign about that aspect of the storyline, but at a much later date, possibly after the main campaign is completed. It's currently a secondary priority until we have the first few releases down the road.
looks awsome.
i hope its not dead.
We're just going through some redesign. Again.
We're trying to replace some community-made ship models with some of our own. The more new content coming through the door, the better. We've made good progress in new background graphics.
Oh, and since Shiv hasn't updated recently, Daddy Warhol's back. That means more music.
Don't worry, it's not.... :)
...Who are you even responding to? The last guy that said LOL UR DED was months ago.
Yeah, that one.
The reply option was a bit messed up so that reply of mine seems a bit random.
