I'm also going to mess with the defense satellites built in skirmish space. They're cheap but completely useless. And tiny, too. Seriously, they're something like 1/4 inch big on my screen.

They were bigger than corvettes, which I just found wholly inappropriate. I didn't play with their weaponry though.

I'm working on some of my mini-mods right now.

Questions:
I'm currently considering the Super Transport Fleet/Escort Carriers, Venator-class, Invincible-class (They're kinda big and pathetic), and Quasar Fire-class as 'Carrier Ships'. Am I missing any?
For the Quasar Fire, Invincible, and Escort Carrier, I plan on giving the max upgraded versions max upgraded fighters. However, that seems over-the-top for the Fleet Carrier and Venator. Thoughts on balance?

I wasn't expecting no starbase complements. I plan on giving each at least a set of tugs and light fighters to scout. Anybody think I should add a bit more? (I'll be increasing cost accordingly.)
I don't really have many sources beyond Wookieepedia, so... Golans are strong enough early on, but upgraded ships can practically ignore them. I was thinking of upgrading their complements as well. What do you think?

I'd love to do a maintenance mod except for one little thing... I haven't the slightest clue what the values should be. I certainly couldn't come up with the kind of detailed stuff discussed in that thread.

Er... your welcome Ghost. I don't know what I did, but your welcome.

Btw, I'm kinda guessing that every xml file has been changed?



Sorry - i had to put my welcome to campaign comment somewhere - It's due to be a sticky post for all the questions we expect about the GFFA and sub-campaigns.

It's due to be moved elswhere - but I only have permission to drop it in Community suggestions.

I, for one, almost have mod in development ;) PR 1.1 Land Combat mod.
This saying, I'll mostly cut some units (yep, artillery again :p ) and adjust garrisons and company sizes (for example, increase inf unit sizes - and increase their cost accordingly). For the eventual second release, I might consider adding some troops (wookies, mon calamari, imperial army troopers), and most likely mix some troops to help AI (example rebel inf+rebel plex)

My idea on that was to create companies, which mix different types of units. This would probably make land a lot more interesting. I disagree on artillery, but I can fix that on my own.



I really wanted mixed companies for this mod, especially for the criminals and gangs, but there simply wasn't time.
Still, you should like the changes so far. Keep an eye out for today's post.....

At some point I probably introduce them. I already have master list prepared, so now only editing - and this should do :p After initial release I plan to introduce companies, too

No offense, but please stop posting, and work on the mod.

Well, you're not the only one who disagree with me on this, that's why I'll allow players to easily reenable them :D
