McKay: „Hey Sheppard, I think I have discovered something very interesting in the data base!“
Sheppard: „What is it?“
McKay: „It is a kind of logbook entry, apparently written while the war against the Wraith.“
Sheppard: „Well, then tell me about it!“
McKay: „You should better have a look at it...“
***Atlantis data base; File 18-0710 A:***
"There is war in the Pegasus galaxy. The Wraith are everywhere and more numerous than ever! More and more colonies fall pray to them. Moreover the fortunes of war turned against us. Somehow the Wraith managed to increase their number in a very short time and to run down our positions. Each ship we destroy gets replaced by 2 new ones. We can't hide any longer in Atlantis. In secrecy we have started to build an enourmes warfleet, to withstand this threat. Against the huge Wraith fleet our usual ships don't stand a chance. To avoid our extinction, we have created powerful new war machines, that can match the fleet of the Wraith."
McKay: „There is even more, I think a list of the whole fleet, but I am not able to decode everything now. I have only unlocked 3 of the ship classes. I will need more time to unlock them all.“
Sheppard: „Whatever, show me what you've got!“
Troop carrier
(HighPoly-Render, LowPoly-Render, In-Game)
The growing number of Wraith soldiers forced us to create a larger transporter than the Jumper, which is able to carry many soldiers simultaniously. The troop carrier can drop several dozens of soldiers to the battlefield and is therefore very suitable to perform attack operations behind enemy lines.
Battle Drone
(HighPoly-Render, LowPoly-Render, In-Game)
Based on the lack of pilots, we have created the battle drone. It is a AI-controlled, highly-maneuverable ship. With its 3 small laser, it can be used for the defense against Darts.
Heavy Fighter
(HighPoly-Render, LowPoly-Render, In-Game)
Due to the new Wraith fighters, our usual ones fell behind them, concerning firepower and armor. The result of this was the creation of the heavy fighter, that can match the heavy Wraith fighters with its 4 heavy lasers and its strong armor.
***Unexpected end of file***
Wow, very nice designs. They look like they came from the show. Also, great way of introducing them with a little storyline.
Very nice and great work. Keep it up
are the drones gate capable?
Well, theoretically yes, but not in the mod ;)
cool, ill use them in my story of the lantian war lol
as well as the larger transport. Episode 5 is looking very interesting lol
just if they act automatically, if they would be linked with a main operations-center to be controlled via an output they would stop fighting after the gate closed.
But I think you meant that they're autonom, didn't you?
NICE WORK AND VERY NICE STORY
love the theme. keep it up
you spelled prey wrong :D
but otherwise Good job ^_^ can't wait for the mod to come out :)
very nice work,keep it up :D
Merlin, Keep up the good work!
is there going to be a galactic conquest just for the lantean-wraith war? cos that would be epic!!!
o.0 Those are epic models!
Was the heavy fighter inspired by the shuttle design from sgu?
As it looks like a cross between the 2 =p
Well I see you guys are going even further with making the factions only cosmetically different. It is indeed possible to balance factions without giving a faction a type of vehicle just because the other faction has it. The Developers of Empire at War made their next game, Universe at War (lol unimaginative name): Earth Assault, a game that had very different factions with very different playstyles, and UaW is better balanced than EaW. I'm sure this mod will be good, but I think that it would be better if the factions didn't all play the same because their classes mirror each other.
Cant wait til the mod is finishd :D
