Actually GTVA is killing Shivans like mad because they have Alpha 1... :rolleyes:

I'd like to make Shivans even more powerful. Instead of swarming they really have more advanced ships and weaponry.

coz shicvans can do all that too? it would be an endless loop, and woluld be impossible to manage gameplay-wise

it's not meant as a mod. It's how I would customize a particular starship.  If it was a mod, then that would be the only capship needed. ;)
