Q?

Maybe if someone can find a way to integrate Q into the game...

He could take over a ship for ten seconds...

I think there's an A2 mod out there, but I don't know what it does.

Yah, there is an A2 mod out there, i tried it once, it didnt do much, didnt realy like it, was kind of pointless.

If im remembering right it makes an invinclible Omega Molicule that has some special weapons, maybaye it was an A1 mod.

I think there was a Q mod for armada 2. I believe it was a ball of light or an omega particle. It had the ablity to mimic ships and do a lot of stuff. It is on http://www.armada2files.com for download.

Granted, i'm one for Trek realism and Q was in the series but in my opinion adding a feature like that is like asking the FO team to create a cheat menu so we can make the ships invincible or more money. If i'm just having a little fun i'll cheat away but using cheats to complete objectives seems like taking away the thrill of the challenge to me and that's what screams at me when I hear people mention using a Q mod. But that's just my opinion

Besides, and to quote (Not a correct reference but he is god-like)

'What does god need with a starship?'

Now if the Q option was a 'wild card' that would be different, kinda like the Cardies bringing in Species 8472 with no idea what ships Q would target.

Here's another wild one, anyone who's played Birth of the Federation will know it. having random events, Q ability in the advanced options menu. If it's on players will be notified is they reveal a portion of the map and find a Q event, could be a powerful different race ship warps in and causes distruction then warps out after a time limit, or find a small sun that goes nova, imagine warping a fleet in and watching them all get wiped out by that one

I swear, my ideas get more and more wild....must be the coffee

i don't think everyone would like it when someone's fleet get busted by some strange ship during a multiplayer match i really like the idea to set up a 'fun map' or something as it was in c&c red alert 1 with ants or civilists armed with nukes as handguns
