Freespace: A New Age (FS:NA) is a total conversion (TC) for Homeworld 2 (HW 2). FS:NA features ships ranging form the original FS game though to FS 2 ships with additional custom ships. FS:NA features new game play options for new and old players of HW 2 as well as many improvements to the original tactical options. On top of that many new 3D effects have being added to the game to allow FS:NA to really show off ships and other crafts from the original games; going beyond the what was seen in FS 1 and 2 by improving the 3D effects to give the FS universe a new look and feel. Take command of the GTA battle groups and wage war against the PVN during the 14 year war period. Defeat the Shivans during the first Great War period with the GTVA. Fight to break the GTVA with the NTF during the Rebuilding period. Fight the Shivans with the largest ship that either Terrains or Vasduants have ever built: the Colossus, during the second Great War with the Shivans. Freespace: A New Age, the future is...
The SSD Lucifer.
"The Lucifer is the greatest threat to the
survival of the GTA, the PVN, and both the Terran
and Vasudan species. It wields two massive Photon
Cannons which can destroy one of our capital ships
in a few hits. These same cannons have been seen
bombarding colonized worlds. With four full
fighter squadrons, and a massive array of
defensive turrets, the Lucifer would be extremely
difficult to destroy.
The fact that it is protected by a sheath
shielding system which makes it completely
impervious to any kind of kinetic or plasma damage
makes it impossible to destroy. We have yet to
find a way to breach this shielding technology. It
is hoped that a solution will be found soon.
Assuming that a solution is found, we have
managed to gather enough data on the Lucifer to
destroy it. In a recon mission, we were able to
determine that the Lucifer is powered by five
reactors across its surface. If these reactors are
destroyed in a short amount of time, the Lucifer
will be stopped.
If we cannot stop the Lucifer, we do not expect
to be able to defeat the Shivans."
