Title: [DEPRECATED] Operation Templar for Between the Ashes
Post by: DefCynodont119 on November 04, 2019, 02:13:54 am

NOTE: This mod has been integrated into the main Between the Ashes mod, This post is being kept for historical record.

I (with some last minute help from Mjn.Mixael) am proud to present:
BtA: Operation Templar.

(https://steamuserimages-a.akamaihd.net/ugc/772858335314215828/4ABED4864C34EC7E9D836E9ADD1B3F47F0EFB6E1/?imw=640&imh=1024&ima=fit&impolicy=Letterbox&imcolor=%23000000&letterbox=true)



Shortly after the GTVA's plan to eradicate the Hammer of Light becomes known, the HoL retaliate by infiltrating the GVD Anhur. The GTVA has selected your squadron to help resolve this tense situation, and bring the hammer down.


This is a conversion and remaster of the Single player edit of the short Freespace 2 campaign: Operation Templar.

This version of Operation Templar has been enhanced with BtA weaponry and features, and has also been heavily re-balanced and bugfixed.



Features include:

Hidden Text: Show

The GVC Wosyet will now aid you in Aldebaran if you protect it in Alpha Centauri.
The stand off scene in Alpha Centauri is now an actual stand off, (instead of Virgo wing shooting you while command tells you not to fire on the freighters)
New backgrounds for missions, briefings, and loading screens!
"You now have authorization to fly the Myrmidon space superiority fighter, good luck Pilot."
The Hygeia-class support ship!
GTT Library's depart order has been fixed. a lot of things have been fixed actually. . .
All missions polished to the best of my ability.
Updated Fenris.
and much more.

This started out as an experiment some months ago, but ended up being my second ever mini-campaign release!  (Even if it is a remaster)  :P

Thank you to HLP and to Volition for all the cool stuff we have made so far.

This is super cool! I was made aware of this only a handful of hours before release. It's an idea I wish I had thought of because BtA's relation to Templar is only going to get more clear.. :nod:

Doesn’t Templar take place (as much as take place means here since continuity is maybe not the same) quite a while after bta though?

Basically after Templar, the hammer ceases to be right?
