The Iron Eclipse will be a multiplayer hl2 mod in which the players will be split up into 2 teams who will start on opposing ships. The teams will be able to control their ship in their own style, for example; to evade enemy turret fire, or to achieve a better hit on the enemy.

The ships in the Iron Eclipse are obviously a main part of the game. Each with an interior for players to breath in, and a detailed exterior that enemy players will fear as it approaches.

Both teams in The Iron Eclipse will have their own style of inter-galactic battle, so therefore their own ship design. Whilst one team has smooth agile looking ships, the other has bulky violent looking ships. Neither outweighs the other for speed/weaponary as we like to keep the gameplay as equal between the two teams as possible.

Ship layout is different depending on the ship, players having to make their way to diferent parts of the ship to use certain weaponary, maybe only to have the enemy ship move round to the other side and the player having to run around to meet it.
we hope to make the most destructive weapons have very short range, so that the players get to taunt their enemy player from just meters away. Ship parts scraping together and breaking off is an exciting possibility which we shall try to encorperate.
