Pushing Limits... 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!
MC102: Heavy Battle Carrier
The Blue Diver.
During the height of the Vong war, the Mon Calamarians allianced with the New Republic, forming trade partnerships with Kuat to develop new heavy command ships for facing the enemy. While the majority of the New Republic fleet centered around medium sized ships within the classes of frigates, cruisers and larger battleships, the Mon Calamarians still required the need for a large assault vessel capable of acting on its own for outter rim patrols and independent assault missions. Out of this Need, the MC102 was born.
The first ship, the Blue Diver was the result of this need. 3 ships of the MC102 class were constructed towards the end of the war to route out Vong remnants while the main task forces reconquered the core worlds. The Blue Diver, Grey Haven and Red Abyss were tasked with patrolling and safe guarding the outlying sectors around Dac.
The MC102 was a massive ship. Bridging the gap between battleship and star cruisers such as the Mediator and Corellian Strident, the MC102 was a task force unto itself. Featuring 9 large hanger bays, the ship carried an impressive complement of fighter, bomber and assault craft while allowing passive repair of fighters during the midst of battle. The MC102 features an effective arrangement of arsenal, featuring 3 heavy ion turrets and 8 dual heavy beam laser turrets and 4 triple barrel heavy long range turbolaser turrets positioned on the bow, with countless heavy turbolaser turrets along the flanks to obliterate anything that survives.
Each of the 3 MC102 ships will be uniquely colorized and will be givin a Fleet Commander bonus. The ships have moderate armor, strong shielding and an expanded range of view. The drawback to the MC102 is since the ship carries so many fighters, it uses more populations points than other ships of its size class.

Pushing Limits:
One of the most poly intense ships so far. This is a big ship. Limited to only 3 being built, we still believe that the ship will function fine within the game after viewing other mods have ships with more than 50 rotating turrets and Geroenimo conducing a test of high poly ships (https://www.moddb.com/mods/yuuzhan-vong-at-war/images/ingame-modelpoly-test-allegiance-and-defender#imagebox) we believe this ship will work just fine.
Its big, its baddass, its ugly, and if your the Vong or Hutt, this will be one of your worst nightmares.
Thank you Warb for making such a wonderful model for us to work with :)
Haha Im wondering how many ships will the hutts need to destroy those three
You do mean "Fleets" don't you. :P
One word: Baddass
this cracked me up :D
I think you mean bad-bass
Ill have to upgrade my computer wont i
i think we will have to design a new quantum computer for this mod and its awesomness ^^
Just Beastly... Is it a cooincidence that it looks something like the Emancipator cruiser from Cheese's legacy mod?
Both are the same ship model made by Warb, the difference is my edits.
While Warb's original model was great, it needed some edits to cohesively match the design styles of the rest of our ships. I work with a 3D Max file that has every ship model to be in our mod, placed in it. I am able to view every single ship lined up next to each other. When working with so many different talented model makers, one can easily see the differences in model creation technique. To ensure the cohesiveness of the mod, I am required to adjust all the models so they all match the same level detail. If one ship has a turret, they all have turrets; if one has radar, they all get radar, etc...
The goal is that if 3 different model makers create ships for the same faction, we don't want the player saying "hey look its warb's ship, or there is evillejedi's ship and that one is Petroglyph's"-- we want the player to say "look at ALL these MC ships!"
As for the edits made to this ship:
Model was made thiner in height, and stretched a little longer. Mon Calamari blisters were added to match all other mc ships. Main long flank hangers were replaced with 2 pairs of smaller flank hangers. Ventral, dorsal and top tower hangers were added along with turret holes being made and karcov's turrets being added.
Looks good with the edits but need to check the smoothing groups. There are some unsmoothed polys around the blisters, hangar and engines.
Will do, thanks for that :)
So will the mediator be to scale if it's in game(8.5km)?
Such destructive power... such beauty... I WANT ONE NOW!!!
Beware such cravings, you must, hmmm...
Speak normally as well, one must.
ahhh... Hypocresy a great thing indeed.
Any more NR starships left to be produced like New Class Starships or Captured Starships(e.g. ISD Rebel Dream)?
Many are in production, few have been revealed yet, but yes, the entire 5th fleet will be present.
Looks like a colossal squid with turbolasers. I approve.
Wouldn't that be Amazing if they did...
will all of them have the same loadout of squadrons? Or will the Moncal ships have A and B wings while other NR ships have E and K wings, etc...?
Correct.
