This mod will make the warp-in vessels buildable at either the Antares or Eraudi Yards.

Vessels Included will be the Steamrunner Class, Nova Class, Nebula Class, Centaur Class, Galaxy Class, Descent Class, Prometheus Class, and Teutoburg Class.

The Steamrunner Class I'm putting in just because it used to be a warp-in.  Plus I'm going to give it an optional refit.  Information on this refit is classified.

The Prometheus Class I'm putting in because I'm going to fix that Multi-Vector Assault Mode button bug.  Plus I found a couple more bugs with that vessel that I intend to fix (except the passives).  I haven't decided if the yard will be able to build replacement parts or not.  Most likely not, if a section gets destroyed, decommission the remaining parts to salvage some resources.

I'm leaving out the Excelsior I, Centaur, and the Ambassador because those ships are out-dated.  I'm leaving out the Premonition Class because the ship was built in an alternate timeline in Armada 1 that no longer exists.

For the Neubla Class, I'm going to ask the developers to build a base model and a base model with an assembly frame around it.  By base model, I mean a model that doesn't have the extra stuff on the rear like the sensor dish, torpedo pod, or the extra warp nacelles.  Details on why I want to do this is classified and will only be stated to the developers.

If a ship is built at a yard, it will not take up any warp-in slots.  However, due to balance issues, there will be extra criteria for some of the Warp-Ins.

Vessels Built at the Antares Yard:
- Nova Class
- Nova Class Rhode Island Refit
- Centaur Class
- Steamrunner Class
- Steamrunner Class Refit

Vessels Built at the Eraudi Yard:
- Galaxy Class
- Neubla Class
- Teutoburg Class
- Descent Class
- Prometheus Class

Starfleet Engineering
- Nova Class Rhode Island Refit (Required to refit the Nova Class or build the Nova Rhode Island Refit)
- Nebula Class CLASSIFIED 1
- Nebula Class CLASSIFIED 2

Level 2 Chassis
- Required to build Nova Class Rhode Island Refit
- Required to build Nebula Class and Nebula Refits
- Required to build Steamrunner Class and Steamrunner Refit

Level 3 Chassis
- Required to build Centaur Class
- Required to build Teutoburg Class
- Required to build Descent Class
- Required to build Prometheus Class

Currently, I am analyzing the situation and gathering information required to build the mod.

Chassis 3 for the Centaur is a little suspect...

Your logic on the Premonition is strange, its timeline split from the regular one too early for it to have been built afterwards. Your choice, though.

Does Chassis 3 make the Centaur underpowered or overpowered?

PS:  Who is in charge of modeling here?

Its suspect because its around the same age as the excelsior.

That would be Zeich.

well, I myself do a model or two, too. But yep, Zeich does the Starfleet models lately.

Sadly, we can't spent time on modeling material for mods. I hope you understand, but as we are working on five Faction redoes, we both have a hell load of models on our list.

ps.: oh and we don't have a "modeling lead". its a project, not an army

Another outdated ship?  Rats!  I guess we can scratch that one off the list.

if you are talking about outdated then you shouldnt have buildable galaxy, thats a reason galaxy is in warpin, the sovvie replaced it. same as the nebula which is just as old if not slightly older.

I think Starfleet is only retiring ship designs that are more than 80 years old.  The Galaxy Class is only 40 years old in the Fleet Ops timeline and were still being built while Voyager was still in the Delta Quadrant.  The Nebula Class is the same age as the Galaxy Class and is much more versatile than the Galaxy.  Those ships are not outdated yet.  The Galaxy can get a nice boost in shield strength by separating the saucer and sending it home.  The Nebula is three ships in one and is far from outdated.

i disagree, i think starfleet discontinued the galaxy building program. but this is a discussion for a galaxy flamewar thread, not here.

It's also not really a debatable subject unless you include fanon, as canon says nothing about them other than 'they were still being built when Voyager was launched'. There's nothing about them after that time.

Yes it is.

Please re-read the forum rules Tok'ra - substance is the key to any good thread and making inflammatory posts for the heck of it is not being a good member of a forum.

I'll let you know when I've made some progress on this mod.
