Star Trek: Of Wounded Wings a RM Homeworld Mod

[Hellkite]

As the Federation falls apart in open civil war, these are the stories of the 79th Fighter Squadron "the Wind Swords" station aboard the USS Seraphim. Join them as they make a stand as they find the answers to the questions. What and who will you fight for, when all that you know and hold dear falls down around you ?

This would be a mod that would tell that story

Just recently got HM Classic and Remastered and looking forward to following this further.

 

[CABAL]

I don't have the remastered version but I'd try to get it so I could play.

 

[Cborg1700]

Remastered version is available on steam and you also get the Classic versions as well and it's not a bad price either.

Yeah, but I'm a college student so I'm somewhat broke. And after checking the recommended system requirements, I think I want to upgrade my system a bit.

 

[Majestic]

I have the original somewhere on disk. However I never was a fan of Homeworld. It was mainly the view point that I found too hard. Being in the action rather than looking from above I found incredibly hard to manage a fleet.

That said I would be interested in knowing more about your idea Hellkite, like units, factions and so on. Interesting concept.

 

[Hellkite]

The setup that I'm going with is that the player will start out with the

Spoiler: USS Seraphim's Carrier Strike Group (CSG)

USS Seraphim's Carrier Strike Group (CSG)

1 Seraphim Class
USS Seraphim NCC-91000

2 Sovereign-class
USS Honorious NCC-90277
USS Indefatigable NCC-90287

2 Prometheus-class
USS Le Reve NCC-867530
USS Marguerite NCC-89845

1 Luna-class
USS Triton NCC-80106

3 Steamrunner class
USS Lydia NCC-53136
USS Nonsuch NCC-59168
USS Porta Coeli NCC-58316

2 Peredhil Class
USS Hotspur NCC-90234
USS Justinian NCC-90654

This will max out the player Capital Class slots and for most of the game will be un replaceable given that the fleet is for the most part on the run
As such has no home port IE "shipyard" to build Capital ships

Most of the Fleets force will be will be made up of fighters and Corvettes and support craft

unit listing

Mothership - Seraphim Class

Capital Class :

Destroyer- Prometheus-class

Missile Destroyer- Peredhil Class

Carrier slot "But will function as research ship "- Luna-class

Heavy Cruiser- Sovereign-class

------ build able-----

Frigate Class:

Assault Frigate- Saber class

Ion Frigate- Steamrunner class

Support Frigate - Linerunner Class

Drone Frigate - Jigoku Class


Corvette Class:

Light Corvette - Arrow Class

Heavy Corvette- Lancer Class Fighter*

Salvage Corvette - M.A.C.O. Gunship*

Repair Corvette -Talon Class

Multi-Gun Corvette- Tempest Class*

Minelayer Corvette Danube class


Fighter Class:

Scout- Valkyrie

Interceptor- Aeon Class

Attack Bomber- Drake Class Bomber*

Defender-Gryphon

Cloaked Fighter- Aeon Class sec 31 variant

Need modeling *

 

[Rifraf]

I have the original as well and will probably pick up the remastered sometime this year. I'll be watching this thread for sure

 

[Majestic]

Interesting set-up there. I like the idea that forces are fighters and not capital ships. Gives a real carrier feel to the mod.

 

[Hellkite]

Thanks Maj that was what I'm going for.

But I still need to work out the other 3 fleets

Federation

- the Core world of the old Federation with the notable exception of Vulcan
Capital world Earth

Colonial Alliance

- Most of the outer Secessionists worlds that have taking up arms
Capitals Trill and Bajor

"Typhon Pact"

- an alliance of several alien civilizations against the Federation following the defeat of the Borg in 2381. These races include the Romulans, the Breen, the Tholians, the Gorn, the Tzenkethi and the Kinshaya.

________________do not have their own fleet _______________
only planetary defiance craft​

Neutral territories- Secessionists worlds that only seceded from the Federation to stay out of the conflict. " Vulcan is one of them as well as all of her colonies " this is not real a cohesive group they are spread out sometimes Isolated and alone

 

[Cborg1700]

I like what you have so far. Looking forward to following this further and eventually playing this.

 

[Hellkite]

@ Cborg1700

I'm glad that you like what you seen in this early stage of this project.

 

[Majestic]

Interesting faction list, but wouldn't the Federation be overwhelmed with both a civil war and then the Typhoon Pact at their door?

 

[Cborg1700]

Interesting faction list, but wouldn't the Federation be overwhelmed with both a civil war and then the Typhoon Pact at their door?

I agree. Wouldn't that be taken care of however by the Khitomer Accords?

 

[Majestic]

I agree. Wouldn't that be taken care of however by the Khitomer Accords?

Well the Federation would be at half strength, so even if the Klingons, Ferengi and Cardassians joined as in the books I still think they would be outnumbered if war broke out. As the Federation would be fighting and internal and external conflict at the same time.

 

[Hellkite]

I did that for a reason and yes it going to be a overwhelming to a point until the two side get their head out of the collective arses .

I'm going back to the roots of Star trek in other words using the story to address the modern day with the story

 

[Majestic]

Fair enough. Was wondering that is all. Now you explained it, I'll have to find something else to debate and talk about.

 

[Hellkite]

Well you are the leader of the Colonial Alliance remember lol

We have to set up your fleet should be in your vernacular "heaps " debate and talk about

 

[Majestic]

Oh so leaving it to me to come up with the Colonial Fleet huh?

What are your ideas for them? I know that they were using escorts type ships as that character did use a Defiant successor type ship.

 

[Hellkite]

Well ... Yes LOL

I see your fleet as mostly older class taking from moth ball fleet yards with a few newer ships that defected to your fleet

 

[Majestic]

Very well then. I'll see what I can come up with.

Buildable ships are fighters right? Like the Federation?

 

[Hellkite]

For you and the Fed the Capital Class will be build able

But your Capital Class should be no more advanced than a Nebula but since unit caps on Heavy Cruiser is two you can have two Dawnstars class as your Heavy Cruisers.

But you fleet should be Frigate heavy with fighter support

It should be noted that your Fleet cost per ship will be lower than all other fleets

were the Feds will have the highest cost

 

[Majestic]

Well I just shot you a PM, with an early example.

 

[Hellkite]

Just returned fire LOL

 

[Majestic]

That was close. You scorched my hull. Guess I need to paint over that!

 

[Hellkite]

LOL just a little paint

Maj. so you approve ?

[Hellkite]

Fleet strengths and weaknesses

Seraphim's Carrier Strike Group (CSG)

Strengths

Mobilty faster force projection higher Unit cap on fighters and Corvettes and support craft
stronger Fighter and Corvettes

Reasoning
Veteran pilots and nature of (CSG) unit

Weaknesses

Capital Class ships are un replaceable smaller Frigate cap

Reasoning
no ship yards limited crew numbers and no stable resource sources

Federation

Strengths :

Newer ships with higher Attacks , Shielding and shorter Research cost /time

Reasoning
for this is that the Federation as most of the Fleet yards and Research stations of the old UFP

Weaknesses:

Ships will take longer to build 150% longer build time than the Colonial Alliance
Salvage Corvette will only disable ships no capture ships from other fleets function

Reasoning

Ship will take longer to build due to complexity of the ships
Salvage Corvette will only disable ships the Fed dose not see the older ship as a valuable


Colonial Alliance

Strengths;

Short build time and cheaper ship cost

Heavier armored Salvage Corvette = to Frigate in armor " Expert ship raiding "

Reasoning

Simpler designs of known techs no need to research

Vets at ship raiding how they stared their fleet in the first place

Weaknesses

Older ships with weaker Attacks , Shielding and longer Research cost /time compared to the Fed
Reasoning

Use older sometimes out dated ships class most of which were taking form a Moth ball fleet yards


____WIP __
"Typhon Pact"

Strengths

Weaknesses

 

[Majestic]

But it your fleet so you opinion is a necessity my friend
