Quick synopsis
This mod introduces the colonial and cylon factions to the Sins of the Fallen universe. Both races will be playable with any of the planets, addons, and races included in Sins of the Fallen including the stock races. Both the colonial and cylon's factions will be balanced against the stock factions to support this approach.
Colonial Fleet
Relying on heavily armored and armed ships the colonial fleet is always on the defense looking for cylon incursions. Lacking shields of any kind Battlestar Point Defense systems are used to intercept incoming weapons and minimize damage to nearby frigates and cruisers supporting the fleet.

cool. Downloading it now. 1h 33m to go
Ya, sorry it's a bit large. It includes all my stuff.
If you don't like using mitigation your welcome to mod it out. I just felt a hull/armor only setup was far too weak against 60%+ damage mitigation. I did scale their mitigation down by half and they do not have shields. I personally think of the mitigation as their PDS systems ranging from Flak shrapnel to decoys which all work to reduce the overall damage from incoming fire. It seems fun enough to me in my playing.
hehehe. been playing Sin's of the fallen awsome work btw.
So are the Cylons next?
And is the colonial starbase ragnar anchorage?
Not sure.
I assume this means you didn't download the mod.
Thanks man. I'll be honest I'm really fond of the Plague race. I wonder sometimes if people really understand the amount of work that went into to creating those two original races. However, all that investment is why I was able to put this together so quickly.
I've actually re-sized and re-hardpointed all of the models. Added turrets (where missing) onto all of the battlestars. Enhanced or fixed all of the textures I used from the original mod or located the originals. Completely retextured the cygnus, alberio, berzerk, asgard, nova, and valkyrie. Imported over a dozen new models from coxxon's fleet and completely rebuilt the mod from the ground up.
I'd like to completely redo the research tree and add some additional models, but I think I'll put the colonials in a holding pattern until Rebellion comes out. I might make small tweaks here and there but won't be doing massive changes unless something dramatic pops into my mind.
You are the man Z! The Colonials Are Awesome! Great work. I am having a bit of trouble. I am trying to make the The Official map of the Twelve colonies of kobol map but can't get all of the planet types to load into Galaxy forge.
I think that is true with some people. When a mod dosn't get updated for awhile. People get upset and don't realise that a lot of work goes into these mods, plus modders have real lives and don't always get the appreciation that they deserve. I just want to say thank you for your hard work and dedication to making Sin's an even that much more of a great and wonderful game. (steps down from the soap box)
I see. I'm not much of a galaxy forge person though I understand the mechanics associated with making maps. My original thoughts were to make a planet package specific to the twelve colonies of kobol and build the custom maps from that.
A general start would be to pick out the planet textures we want for the various systems. This can include gas giants as well as any other planetary bodies. Any ideas of which textures you wanted for each planet?
I've then been planning to modify my planet package script to generate each planet individually in the galaxy scenario def so it can be explicitly referenced in the GSD file.
Here's a couple of resources I found that we might use.
Another source that I have found is The Twelve Colonies of Kobol - Battlestar Wiki I have the map of the twelve colonies.
I just need the Icon textures. I've made some personal maps in the past with galaxy forge.
I hope this can mod's download link can stay up till I get home on Friday! Posting this on my step-dad's old computer.
Oh, and http://dl.dropbox.com/u/5790092/sotf/bloodandchrome/icons/map_of_the_colonies_1.jpg bottom left corner, just noticed, GRAYSTONE INDUSTRIES. Lolz!
Nah, I'm only interested in playing as the Cylons...
Would just seem a little weird for me playing as the colonials without also being able to play as/against the Cylons... (just my personal opinion!)
Oh wow... so does that mean that you are considering not doing the Cylons? I was kinda holding out for that too...
Haha, well mainly I was jazz'n mord sith. After all the posts about ragnar and he doesn't even download the frak'n mod, lol.
oh ok.. haha
Well man I wouldn't have asked so many times if you had just answered the question! You woudn't tell me, which I didn't understand because you had released info on everything else.
Where do I download the Colonials? I wanna play as them .
Diaspora has been destroyed
Oh, and I did make a map for BSG, based upon the official galaxy map. I made it for Distant Stars.

You scared me, until I checked out where Diaspora is hosted. They're fine, and it looks like NBC are just being dicks to stuff on ModDB.
Yep... been blown out of proportion I think. I doubt that NBC are going to go on a rampage and kill all BSG mods on the net...
awesome, looking forward to this
