Sci-Fi MultiMod

from GalCiv2 Forums
I see a lot of mod ideas like "Starwars Mod, Battletech Mod, Trek Mod" etc, but nobody has yet hit the idea of a global Science Fiction mod...

Don't know much on how to mod, but if anyone wants to work on this concept, feel free...

10 "Races", 5 different styles of hull. Choose 5 popular scifi titles, make two races from each title, and hulls designed from what each sci-fi "universe" used.
My personal picks would be; Startrek, Starwars, Babylon 5, Battlefleet Gothic (WH40K), and Battletech...
ie: Federation (Trek), Kingon (Trek), Sith/Empire (SWars), Jedi/Rebels (SWars), Earth Alliance (Bab5), Centauri (Bab5), Chaos (BFG), Imperium (BFG), Federated Commonwealth (BTech), Clan Jade Falcon (BTech).

Create a tech-tree for weapons mixing what each "universe" used (Phasors would be better than a Turbolaser, but weaker than Naval PPCs).

Would be a neat mod to be able to try the might of the Empire against the skill of the Klingon Empire...

If you look a little bit down in the forum, I have already suggested this. Not much attention has been givin to it at this time.

You might have a better chance once some of the ship models have been released. This mod might be a good ideal to many people. Think about it. It is hard to create upwards of ten complete races based on one scifi theme...ie star wars or star trek. But together you get to skim off the cream of each.

Take out the Chaos (never head of it) and put in the Clan Wolf. The the Jade and the Wolves can fight like in MechWarrior 2.

My listed choices up there were just some random ones, but for Battletech, one clan and one sphere house would be best, that way you get Clan and IS ship designs. That and Wolf has allied with Jade Falcon...

Oh, and you may just be the only person in the Verse who doesn't know of Warhammer/40K's Chaos legions.
