Nightstalkers Universe Mod mod for Freelancer

What is NSU

Nightstalker's Universe Mod has been in the works for 4 years, the mod itself has gone though many incarnations including being rewritten several times. The concept of NSU is to give SciFi junkies what they are looking for. There are several sections of the mod dedicated to different SciFi Shows such as, BSG, Star Trek, Babylon 5, Firefly, and Star Wars. There are several sections of the mod that come from different ideas I have come up with and each system is uniquely different with custom suns, starspheres, and a few planets. The Mod has a lot to offer for a wide range of players. At the start you are given 5 choices though the use of one way jump holes (one in ST, SW, B5, Nightstalker Space, Terran Alliance Space). There are also 4 unique Factions in the mod, including Rogue Asteroids, Comets, Derelicts (Moving wrecks), and monsters (They hurt too).

Who Runs the Servers??

The Olympus Freelancer Complex is lead by Zeus (USA-1) and RJOtto (EU-1) and is policed by the SAS (Server Admin Squad) to keep the place cheat free. The mod maker is me Nightstalker and I make it a point to play whenever I can so see you on the server.
