A new BORG: Incursion project brings many of the things that have been seen in previous mods from the Incursion series, but this time BI moves back to its original roots. Armada 1 is being given a complete overhaul.

The Federation is once again under threat from their most dreaded enemy.

Originally started over 6 months ago, and after a discussion with a member of the small, but active Armada community, it was suggested to me to make some sort of release. I did toy with the idea for some time as this project was originally just my way of wanting to play the game. Much of the content (ship and station wise) has already been seen in the other Incursion mods, but this mod has gone from a simple overhaul of the original game to something that includes totally new content. Whislt I've managed to get away with using the previous mods playable models, I've had to completely rebuild many others. Amongst these is the Federation starbase. The original one I was using came from an unknown source and the quality was somewhat below par. Same goes for the completely rebuilt Starfleet HQ. Planets have also seen to get a "facelift" and although the planet model was originally made by "The Great One", the planet textures themselves are of higher detail. As I've managed to get to grips with 3dmax' animation better than when I first started 3d modelling its enabled me to correctly animate the planets (something which a few years ago was beyond my grasp).

As it stands the project is well under way, and whilst I could theoretically make a public release theres still several things yet to complete. Once these are done then a release will be forethcoming.
