MC80B - Mon Adapyne Class image - Yuuzhan Vong at War mod for Star Wars: Empire at War: Forces of Corruption
Behold the Yuuzhan Vong Army! This mod adds the Yuuzhan Vong Race as a playable faction and all units of this era. We are a community of modders working for the greater goal, so anyone who wants to help or support us is welcome!
Named after the ship itself, the 2nd class of MC80B, the Mon Adapyne Class, was engineered to be more effective fighting in the middle of heavy battles. Notable differences are the additional gun gun blisters located on the sides of the ships with the forward armaments being reduced, the replacement of the 3 heavy ion cannons with 3 triple barrel heavy long range turbolaser turrets, and the removal of the 2 rear facing wing heavy turbo laser turrets that appear on the Mon Remonda line.
The ship features 8 squadrons of fighters and has the special abilities of "power to shields" and "increase firepower" making it a deadly opponent in the midst of a large fleet battle.

showed the Mon Remonda class for comarison in the first 2 pics.
Not Op is it?
what? OP? With power to shields and power to weapons? Not at ALL
But...How many can be fielded in battle???
I had not forseen this. Well played
The MC80B line will be limited in production. We will configure a way so that after a few of the MR Class are built, construction will automatically switch over to the MA line, and then after that, the Al Class.
Powerful warships by the Mon Cals will be needed to fend off a powerful enemy...
I love these ships as you have designed them. Previous versions always looked so...bland. Yes, the Mon Calamari ships had an "organic" look to them, but they still utilized technology. It is nice to see antennae, gun barrels, etc protruding from the ship. It gives it a "unique" look. The models alone are just Gorgeous! I cannot wait for the fully meshed versions. Excellent Work!
I'm assuming that all these Mon Cal cruisers will be constructed only at Mon Calamari, correct? Or will some of these ships be standard among the Republic Fleet and buildable from most shipyards?
Only from Mon Calamari.
Looks like it will be able to deliver devastating broadsides, especially in the midst of a multi-ship slugfest, but am I correct in saying it's going to have more trouble approaching and leaving battle (considering the forward and rear facing weapons have been reduced)?
Probably, turret rigging and hardpoint coding with firing archs have not been done yet, but ideally we would like to limit the forward/aft firing capabilities so that the ship does most damage from broadsides.
In contrast, the opposite will be done to the Remonda class do that it has less firepower from its flanks. This is believable if you think of how the original Mon remonda attacked the SSD iron fist and survived. Only punishing hit and run attacks would make sense for it to survive. The Mon Adapyne on the other hand engaged in heavy battles vs the vong.
Adjusting the firing arcs like this is genius, love it.
