Star Trek Enterprise : Strange New Worlds

[rich]

Hey,
Im creating a Enterprise Era total conversion for Armada 2 called "Star Trek Enterprise : Strange New Worlds". Firstly I would like to give you some information on this total conversion.

"Its set about 2 years after the launch of the NX-01. The Klingon Empires main fleet was destroyed when the Romulan Empire launched a huge attack in Klingon space. A ship belonging to a race knowen as the Tholians was destroyed by a unkowen ship in Human Space and the Tholians are blaming Starfleet. So now the Klingon Empire is building a new fleet and has declared war on the Romulan Empire and the Tholians have declared war on the Humans."

There is the short version of the story line. Its not very good but I like it. So, the races in this mod are as follows:

--Main Realese--
-Humans
-Klingons
-Romulans
-Tholians

--Expansion--
Vulcans - Map Units only
Suliban
Xindi - (maybe)

At the moment im still planning most of it so there is no release date available but I was hoping to have the main release finished by 2011. Why so long? The answer is I've got to design, build and texture nearly every ship and station and there are alot of other reasons. But I am also hoping to release a teaser pack for each of the races in early-mid 2009 when I've got some ships made.

At the moment it is just me working on this total conversion and it would be a lot quicker and helpful if I had help on this mod. So I'm asking for help. I would need help in Modeling, Texturing, Designing and a few other things. So, if you think you want to be part of the the mod team to help with this mod could you please PM me or leave a post.

This mod doesn't have a website or its own forum. Majestic has already said he would open up a forum in the Armada 2 Modifications section of the site. So, now I need a website. Is there anyone who could tell me where I can make a free website. It would be great help.

Now, does any one have any Ent Era Romulan, Klingon, Human or Tholian ship or station designs? If you do could you please post them here.

Many thanks rich

Well, whilst I am unable to help directly in regards to models and such, I have a suggestion. Replace the Tholian with the Xindi. You can then either have the Humans face off against the Xindi (almost like an alternate reality type thing), or play about a little, pitting the Romulans against the Humans, and Xindi against the Klingons.

My only reason for putting the Xindi in place of the Tholians is a simple one. There are enough Xindi vessels that have been released (by myself) over on A2Files. I believe I sent them to Majestic too, though with him being busy, they've not been hosted here yet. Granted there are no stations, and the Reptilian ships remain untextured, but you'd have enough ships for the Aquatic, Arboreal, Primate and Insectoid side of things.

Hey,
Thanks for the suggestion but im going to stick with my plan for the moment. I have started to collect some ships together. I will post a ship list when I get/make some more ships. I have a few questions if anyone can help. What colour are the Humans, Klingons, Romulans and Tholians Phasers/Pulsephasers and Torpedos in the Ent Era? and do the Klingons have cloak in the Ent Era?

Hey,
and do the Klingons have cloak in the Ent Era?

rich

i don't believe so. i think that the Klingons obtained Cloaking devices from the Romulans during TOS era. but i don't remember. so don't take my word on it.

 

[Majestic]

Klingons didn't get them (Cloaking Devices) untilo their Alliance with the Romulans in the late 2260's ie Star Trek TOS.
