Quick synopsis

This mod introduces the colonial and cylon factions to the Sins of the Fallen universe. Both races will be playable with any of the planets, addons, and races included in Sins of the Fallen including the stock races. Both the colonial and cylon's factions will be balanced against the stock factions to support this approach. 

 

Colonial Fleet

Relying on heavily armored and armed ships the colonial fleet is always on the defense looking for cylon incursions. Lacking shields of any kind Battlestar Point Defense systems are used to intercept incoming weapons and minimize damage to nearby frigates and cruisers supporting the fleet.

Good day. I have a question: Can I Blodd and Chrome together with the great mod to play Sins of the Fallen? Or you can just play both separately




Guten Tag. Ich habe mal eine Frage: Kann ich Blodd and Chrome auch zusammen mit dem großen mod Sins of the Fallen spielen? Oder kann man nur beide getrennt spielen
End of sigie85's quote

It really depends. You can "generally" safely run 2-3 additional factions from Sins of the Fallen, Transhumans and Blood and Chrome on recommended settings (High/Medium/Low).

However, depending on your system specifications, map size, etc adding more than 3 additional factions may stress the game above 2GB.

That said they are compatible with the latest version of Trinity and can work together.

I'm working on a way to tune the framework to ignore Tech, Advent and Vasari meshes and textures when those factions aren't loaded which should hopefully allow the mod to run on all highest settings when your are running only Colonials and Cylons for example.

I posted a rough table a few pages back that sucked to read ;)

I'll post some pics like the trees above that are easy to view when I finish up some more of the descriptions and account for some of the changes.

 

Just thought you guys might like seeing progress while it's happening   :cylon:

Thanks... I'm trying to add as much Colonial flavor as you can fit reasonably. 

I've made the religion tree fairly large to reflect their monotheistic beliefs.

The Colonization and Trade Unions tree are mostly standard fair right now as a base. I'll probably add a few other options that can be used for the colonials but I don't want it to overshadow their culture benefits.

The Combat and Defense trees are pretty much set for the most part.

 

I will also add or categorize some of the TECs as Loyalists or Rebels in some later revisions.

 

Reply #1066 from Sins Forums Top

Let me explain the new Faction Tree a bit.

 

All factions will be rolled into a single entity, which means you will select your primary Race or Random at game start. The option to Rebel or stay Loyal to your factions cause will be available after your first research lab is built. 

You will also have 4 different Trait paths you can follow: 2 for loyalists and 2 for Rebel.

dood! nice. colonials are Polytheistic, the cylons are monotheistic.  you said in one earlier the colonial religious was monotheistic.

Reply #1070 from Sins Forums Top

A few things:

- Great how there is so many paths that you can choose - cool how you can choose after game start

- Marketeer and Megacorp sound very similar i.e. both based around their economy?

- Love the religion research tree - uses so many things from the show!

- Ragnarok starbase? Shouldn't this be Ragnar Class starbase?

- Is there research for high yield nuke?

It all looks so cool so far...

Lol, I'm being hounded by the word police ;)

Anyways, this is rough design, not polish text in game. It's more about the essence and layout right now than the verbiage. When it's an actual in game text feel free to correct or provide your own descriptions (I love the latter when people send in better descriptions).

And Ragnarok is a capital ship class in my fallen mod, so I tend to write that sometimes.

 

So onto the real comments

End of Mord_Sith84's quote

Due to research constraints I've opted for 4 paths only. You'll start as a Marketeer and then become a Megacorp. Or you can start as a Diplomat and goto Alliance.

So basically 2 sub-paths per faction type with 2 additional researches each.

Yep, I wanted the Colonials to have a lot of religious flavor in their research. Their beliefs are one of the areas that make the Colonials interesting.

End of Mord_Sith84's quote

There are Tactical Nuclear Weapons and Nuclear Bombardment Research. All the capital class battlestars also have special nuclear class abilities.
