Honorverse Mod?

(1/5) > >>

blackbow:
Has anybody toyed with the idea of a mod for the Honorverse?  everything you need is pretty much already here.  Beam weapons, sidewalls, missiles.

General Battuta:
I think that'd be better suited for another engine. While you can do limited capship command in FreeSpace, the engine would absolutely panic at the sheer distances involved, never mind fully Newtonian capship behavior. It feels like something that deserves its own game.

StarSlayer:
IRRC the engine also would likely freak out at the speeds projectiles and ships travel in the honorverse.  Plus the closest thing to a strikecraft (ie a traditional freespace player craft) are the corvette sized warships introduced at the end of the first Haven Manticorian war.

The E:
I think if you want a true Honorverse combat experience, you gotta start with something like Children of a Dead Earth and work from there.

Colonol Dekker:
Smallest thing is a pinnace isn't it?  Grayson katana LAC is going to be the size of an Aeolus at least.
