This mod idea started between me and one of my friends (who is no longer a part of the team.) This mod, unlike my other mod (Dark Era) will be a total conversion (and this one isn't dead,) not just a minor mod that replaces a few units. In this mod, every unit will be replaced. If all goes as planned, even the terrain and critters will be replaced.
The Terran are to be replaced by the Iron Wolves Empire, a human faction that formed recently and is building in power. Several new units for the Iron Wolves Empire are the Selveris Assault Cruiser, the Hellstorm Tank, the VV-X Raider, the GX-2 and GX-3c assualt mechs, the R-20 Scythe ATF and the R-21 Carver Missileboat.
The Protoss are going to be replaced with the Earth Federal Forces or EFF. The primary human power in the universe, second most powerful in the universe, seconded by the Veline Federation (not in this mod, just wait until future projects.) Several of their units are the SL-3 Slicer scout fighter, SL-4 Slayer Stealth Fighter, M-92 Bomber, Magnus War Cruiser, Thor Gunship, Crossbow Cruiser and Eagle 4 Mobile Factory.
The Zerg are going to be replaced by the Regine Empire, a human faction that had been defeated in a war recently. They use an army consisting of mindless drones made of a strange, living black metal of unknown origins as well as humans ships with this metal intergrated into the hull. Several of their units are the Sincla Mega-Gunship, RipFighter, Deathfish and Vortex. There are also two campaign only units, the Toronamus and the SinBlast Mega-Gunship.
Current 3d models are only low detail to show what the basic idea of what they look like. Higher detailed models will be available as I tinker with them over time and when I have time to make decent textures for my ships.
More information will be available over time. I will keep you updated on new features that come into play. You'll be seeing a lot of screenshots real soon.
More details on the mod are on my forum at Ardis.proboards61.com

Okay, so I overhauled the mod big time. The factions are as follows:
Terran = Iron Wolves Empire (IWE)
Protoss = Earth Federal Forces (EFF)
Zerg = Regine Empire (Regine)
The Iron Wolves Empire are a small group of planets that have joined to support each other.
The Earth Federal Forces are the Earth government in present date. They have the largest fleet known to man and many species of aliens.
The Regine Empire is an alliance formed between the battered faction from a war about fifty years ago and an alien race known as the Kamadoray Legion. Almost 80% of their fleet consists drone units made from Kamadory biotechnology and human weapons and tactics.
Along with these new factions, I've added some new units, such as the IWE VV-X Raider, the EFF SL-3 Slicer Scout Fighter, EFF M-92B Mesallas remote variant and EFF Eagle IV carrier. They've all been added to the gallery. Others units not shown in the gallery due to being incomplete are the EFF Thor Gunship and EFF Magnus War Cruiser which has been brought back. The SL-4 Slayer had to be cut from the mod, sorry.
The Regine Empire will have new units soon, hopefully.

This isn't just a fleet based mod, I just don't have any infantry or ground unit models available yet.

Great. Looking forward to it.

No, this mod is not dead, we're just working on stuff that's not ready to present yet.

I accidentally commented... Well there's your answer on your profile page...
Looks cool
I'm glad to accept any help on this and my other mods. If you wish to help, please PM me with what you can do and I'll get back to you as soon as possible. I check my mail on this site almost everyday, so I'm easy to contact.
And as soon as I have a decent layout of units for the Krom from my development partner, I will have a beta available.
