That is very true.  The four races are poorly balanced, and we're trying to rectify that.  Basically I'm thinking of leaving a lot of ships out of the main campaign for balancing purposes and release them as additional ships.  Woo and I will go over this soon.

Story is more or less done; all I have to do now is iron out the specifics for each mission.  As for models, they're done.  I sincerely don't think we'll make any serious modifications in the future.  There will be more models in the modpack than those used in the campaign.  FREDding is probably the hardest part to do right now, especially since I'm the only one pulling the weight.  The first10 missions are still buggy, so I'm working on ironing out the bugs and adding some finishing touches.  The one untouched area that desperately needs revamping are the tables.  Nasty stuff.  Weapons need to be rebalanced, most importantly.  Ships also need to be modified, for example, destroyers and larger capital ships should not be able to turn on a dime.

I feel your pain Rampage...my campaing is in a very similar situation...actually, almost mindblogingly indentical (10 done mission, ironing other specifics, other stuff 99% done) :wtf:
However I reccomend (if the story allows this) to do what I did (given that I'm a genious) and simply split the whole thing into smaller sub-chapters (16-20 mission each) :D

And how can I forget Steadfast? :eek2:

Dividing INF SCP in many sub chapters means that every subchapter should have a valid conclusion(that EA destroyer is finally down, we managed to get into that system and/or take it back, etc etc)

I was saying that every chapters should have a valid ending. It could modify the structure of the campaign itself. What if 20 missions are centered on a ship or a particular situation? You are forced to modify the storyline.

I understood you the first time ;)

Yes, the story needs to be able to accomodate such a "tactic"

The two mods are largely independent, aren't they?  You guys aren't delaying INF:SCP by working on INFASA, I hope?
