I´Friil Ma-Nat image - Vong Invaders Expansion mod for Star Wars: Empire at War: Forces of Corruption
This mod aims to bring the extra-galactic race of Yuuzhan Vong into SW: FoC as a playable 4th faction. Original factions will receive new units to fight these invaders.
I´Friil Ma-Nat
Role: Corvette
Armament: 7 Light Yarek Kors; 1 Medium Yaret-Kor; 4 Dovin Basals
Shielding: Light (delay 0,1 seconds)
Abilities: Boost Speed; Boost Firepower; Regeneration (low)
Complement: none
One of the smaller Yuuzhan Vong vessels, I´Friil Ma-Nats are best used as anti-fighter escort for heavier ships. Thanks to the ability to boost speed or firepower, they also excel at using hit-and-run tactics obliterating enemy fighters and bombers (which can cause serious pain against Vong shielding).
If you think, that you´re familiar with the design, you´re right! This model was actually made by EvillJedi and used in Z3r0x mod featuring the Vongs for the first time in EaW modding history. Even though it underwent some rather heavy tweaking, it´s meant as a tribute to this creator.
Watch it in HD to enjoy the detail and secondary ingame screenshots on the right side! Enpremi uploaded the model to Verold again, so you can view it in all angles Studio.verold.com
Question: Would you like to see a giant space flamethrower on one of Vong ships? ^_^
nice ship!
and verold is just epic :D
Cool.
And giant space flamethrower? Hell yeah!
Interesting, but vong ships and flame throwers were never in the novels, nor would a flame thrower work in space. The closest thing possible would be a type of plasma discharge such as the Slave Ship.
Curious as always to see what you guys develop, I hope you beat me to developing worm grappling hooks as the mataloks were described having, if you choose to include that ;)
well, as far as I´m aware flamethrowers spit an ignited mixture of liquids onto its targets. Vongs could then "spit" a mixture with fluid oxygen (though it evaporates rather quickly) in it, which would supply those "space flames" with oxygen... /hope nobody with some knowledge in chemistry reads this/
I intend to give the Dreadnought (which is neither really "canon") a switchable ability between flame/beam.
ad grappling worms) idk, but since animations in space usually freeze the unit, I´m afraid this ability wont make into our mod. but who knows...
I might have a solution to the grappling hooks that doesn't freeze the unit, talk to me on skype
