Strikers Mod 2.0

The Strikers game type is focused on small, highly maneuverable combat swarms.
This mod is only compatible with the post-patch (version 1.1) Homeworld 2 game.

Version 2.0 is playable online, and has several new features:

** customizable start fleets - play with 1 carrier, 2 carriers, 3 carriers, shipyard, or the standard mothership/carrier combination. The shipyard-only start should make for some interesting "base defense" type games.

** expanded unit caps for large swarms

** optional resource injections, with audio messages to let you know when they arrive

** a brief opening text message onscreen to clue new players of the mod as to the gameplay rules

** The AI has not been customized, but as the limits come from simple unit cap changes, typically the computer player does pretty well. Occasionally you might get a glitch where they seem to pause. This is undoubtedly due to the AI spending its time and money researching things it is not able to build. I plan to get that fixed in a future release, but it's quite playable now.

Ship construction is limited to:

fighters
corvettes
resource collectors
mobile refineries
platforms
carriers
shipyards

Frigate and larger combat vessels are not allowed.
