The Battle Craft mod is a sci-fi mod set in the year 3204 and human colonization has spread far out into the Sirius and Alpha Centauri star systems. The mod is inspired by several sci-fi games and movies such as Starcraft, Serenity and our imagination.
The mod will make the player able to choose to fight for the Strauss Military Federation (SMF), Aliens and the Shavee Kro. Each race will have their own unique weapons, abilities and attributes such as increased speed for the Aliens, shields for the Shavee and stimpacks for the Humans.
The mod will be multiplayer only and might include COOP maps. The server rotation will have a "Campaign mode" which sets the new map according to which team has won.
Maps will be vary between open battlefields to narrow corridors in space ships and will have a story line.

Races
SMF Humans are equiped with ranged weapons and exoskeletons to combat the foe. These soldiers are often basic militia troops protecting the colonies on the various planets. The colonist galaxy is protected by a spread-thin fleet trying to fight increased alien activity.
The Imperial fleet has just recently invaded the Protectors' homeplanet in the Sirius system but are facing new dangers in the Alpha Centauri system.
Thier classes will be:
Colonial guard
Colonial medic
Mercenary grunt
Imperial commando
Colonial Grease monkey

Shavee Kro are honourable warriors fighting to regain their homeplanet from the humans and to gain honor. Their planets are rich on resources and are well defended. The pro'zul are highly intelligent and have invented shield and warp technology. Their blades are made of clean energy able to cut through the toughest metal. Their somewhat fragile bodies are protected by shields to avoid harm and can be recharged. They have developed dangerous plasma weapons.
The Shavee Kro classes will be:
Zealot
Acolyte
Superior
Energy Craftman
Negotiator

Aliens are a new aggressive species attacking human facilities in the Alpha Centauri system. Reports from an attacked space station tells how the parasite like aliens attach to their host's head and make the host mutate rapidly into deadly fighting machines. They seem resistant to pain, but are weak if the parasite itself is hit.
The alien classes will be:
Drone
Spitter
Beserker
Tender
Infiltrator

Alright, we may have similarities to starcraft.

But here are some differences; While the Shavee do have sheilds, they are more focused upon ranged warfare on the whole, while they do attack with energy blades, similararily to how humans attack with knives. They are also a single species, they use vehicles + technological advances to make them stronger, rather than genetical specialities.

Terrans: generally humans with the longer range of all units. involve marines in space.
Humans: generally humans with the longer range of all units. involve marines in space.
Protoss: Honorable fighters adept in shield and warp technology. Highly religious because of their god-like creators. use complete energy blades, and have plasma-like weapons. have four-legged mechs.
Pro'zul: Honorable fighters adept in shield and warp technology. Highly religious because of their god-like creators. use complete energy blades, and have plasma-like weapons. have four-legged mechs.
Zerg: scary alien fuckers that infest the terrans.
Aliens: scary alien fuckers that infest the humans. more like the aliens from the movie "Alien"

Now AvP, Halo, and sorta Supreme Commander all use buglike aliens + super intellegent aliens + humans, but this is sorta cutting it close.
