MP Risk - Capship-only gametype mod
Homeworld 2 mod | Released Nov 16, 2005
MP Risk 2.0
A gametype modifier that restricts combat build options to frigate and larger ships. Its intent is to encourage large, long duration strategic fleet battles.
Early-game production lag due to the increased costs of capship research and construction has been compensated for by increasing the default RU modifier and expanding the resourcer unit caps.
Additional starting fleet options have been added to make shorter games possible. You can start with the standard MS/carrier or altenately you can go with 2 MS's, MS & shipyard, or 2 carriers.
This release also contains a custom map made by Starfisher, designed especially for this mod. It is a symmetric, 4 player map named (appropriately enough) Symmetry. This mod will also play on any standard deathmatch map.
The mod is packaged as a .grm1 compiled archive.To play, just download it into your "..homeworld2 bin gamerules " directory, and select "MP Risk 2.0" from the gametype dropdown box (where you normally see "Deathmatch") when starting a new game in skirmish or multiplayer.

I played HW 2 for the caps..never been a fighter fan and gunships bored me...you never get time to build a real single player cap force in mp...such a great mod!
nice idea are u going to change anything?
if u dont mind me saying maybe making the keepers a playable race thatd be gud
nice mod

Might I suggest you find stronger opponents then? If your enemy gives you enough time to build 4 BC's then he deserves what he gets.
You'd be lucky to even get one BC out vs a strong player.
Don't underestimate games without strike craft. Frigate and destroyer tactics take on a whole new role without bombers and corvs in the game.
You can now download this mod directly via ModDB instead of going through my homepage.
NO strikecraft?? Longer battles?
O bloody hell :P
The only thing that stood me in the way to just crush the enemy with 4/5 battlecruisers, was the enemy's strikecraftfleet. The bombers made me producing flak frigs and stuff.
NOw that there is no more strike craft, it will be an easy game to win..
To download the mod, just visit my homepage.
And as to the strike craft comment... you do know this mod doesn't use strike craft ?
Thanks for the comments. Hope you're all enjoying my litle mod.
Problem of remote loading can you help me? When I want to download I the message obtains: "MOD downloads not * yet * available" How to make to download this MODS. Yes I know that normally it is the heading comment but I am lost...
great mod, this mod is for playing againest CPUs when you've got free time. the best thing i find about this mod is that for me, like to build an armada of huge battle ships and then crash the enemy!!
just one problem, the CPU doesn't seem to play as good as with strike crafts........
but overall, i am impressed ;)
