Dominion/Cardassians - already discussed this race, but was

posted on November 15th, 2007, 3:21 pm

I know we have already gone through this a bit before.

But since we are not going to include this race in this Race, I was hoping we might be able to include the cardassians in the Weyoun Avatar build tree.
Since they never got on with the breen, it would be no conflict in leaving them out of the Thoth tree.
I was just hoping to spice the Weyoun tree up. It is quite dull in the PR, with only one different class.
Maybe a Galor and Keldon build ability would not be a bad idea.
Galors as weak as they are coukld be a Weyoun equivalent to the Breen Frigate.

Also, could we please try to include the battleship class as a buildable ship in the Dom tree.
After playing PR, I fuiond that Dominion ships stand are much weaker pound for pound than the roms, feds, and klings.
Was hoping we could change that a bit.

Also, the Jen'hadar ramming ability (and I know it has been requested already) shouild certainly be much stronger.

The main tactical ability of the Dominion is its ability to rebuild fast and on a large scale. This seems to be lost to a great degree in blalancing. we could try balancing this against making crew a needed Dominion resource, with supplies and tritanium.
This added requirement of crew could be incorporated (and from what I've seen you guys are excellent at incorporating things into the build) so as to not make the Dominion too strong, but at the same time retaining the race's reason for being so formidable in the first place.
Just as we certainly would hope that the Borg cube and Tactical cube in V3 are imposing due to their firepower and shield strength/repair ability. Their weakness being time taken to build the powerful classes, and resources involved.

This would also motivate the players to select their races after careful analysis of the race's own style of development, adding an extra dimension in addition to the already very interesting tech tree.

Just download the Cardassian MOD and add them yourself. I did and now have both Cardassian and Breen in the second Dominion avatar together. The Cardassians also come up as 'Cardassian Vessel' not 'Dominion Vessel'.

If you mean a link to the Cardasian Mod, go to Star Trek: Armada 2, Star Trek: Armada 2 Downloads - FileFront.com and search 'Cardassian'. The Mod itself is called 'FO Cardassians'.

But would still rather have it built into FO.
FO's graphics and design are in a class of their own.[br]Posted on: November 15, 2007, 05:59:13 pm
