Stargate Invasion is a total conversion mod for Sins of a Solar Empire: Entrenchment and Diplomacy . As of this time, there is no FINAL release date yet for this mod.

  

 

The mod will be built in 2 halves.  The first is the Pegasus side, I.E. Humans, Wraith and Asurans, with the Pirates being a classified race at the moment.  The second part of the mod, will add in the Asgard and Goa'uld races to the mix, we will even be creating a separate version of the mod as well, which will just be Humans, Asgard and Goa'uld, with the Lucien Alliance as the Pirates for that half.

Here is a WIP shot of our Asuran Fighter.  The Design is RJB's, and I recieved permission to create this low poly model.

Nice. I thought you might use a jumper or something. Reminds me a bit of Battlestar Galactica. Which one is the right way up, btw?

The Jumpers are going to be bombers, this ship is the fighter for the Asurans.  The one in the back has the nose facing us and is the top.

interesting, i would have thought the jumper would be the fighter, the model above would be the bomber... its just looks meaner than the jumper. i also thought the model looks better upside down than right way up... idn, just my opinion, but its all good

I think it wouldn't look "mean" if it was the other way up.

I'm thinking the engines should be verticle, rather than slanted.

Jumpers are bombers because they will be using Drones, while this fighter is going to have lasers.

The original Design calls for the Engines to be slanted, and I feel like keeping true to RJB's work.

aside from that laser/beam thing the asurans used agaisnt atlantis at the end of season 3 (?) is there any lore showing ancients/asurans etc using weapons other than drones or whatever projectiles the Destiny uses?

im not picking a fight, im genuinely interested, and if there isnt any lore... maybe try something more original than 'lazorz'?

A smaller ship of the Asurans fired energy blobs similar to the Destiny at the Apollo near the end of 'First Stike'. I would imagine fighters using those rather then a long range focused energy beam laser.

Wierd, I don't remember any blob-like projectiles...

I would suggest making a smaller, faster version of the weapons fired from various asuran ships off 'Be All My Sins Remember'd'

Those are what I was talking about. The ship in 'First Strike' fired the same weapons. They're is no real name for them unless you want to get technical and call them 'directed energy weapons', but I like energy blobs better. They fire from the cannons on the side of Aurora class ships and have been shown on other types as well.

And I would agree, smaller version of those is good for fighters.

Oh them, I remember. I call them orbs. But I thought they looked more like drones...

The only ships I saw firing weapons in 'First Strike' were the Apollo, firing rockets, and of corse the stargate.

I believe the Episode you are refering to is 'lifeline', which is when we first see the ship I have named the Atropos firing those Laser 'blobs'

i dont get it, why use something diff then a jumper, unless the replicators decided to go a different way with regards to fighter/bomber craft. though in that regard why not just have them use drones since they are robots (more or less) anyway.

End of quote

do you mean use drones in the sense of the weapon Drones? or like unmanned drone craft?

either way, i dont think the Asurans would use simple machines (insofar as a semi-sentient craft) to do their bidding as they think of themselves as the 'children' of the ancients, and so they try to emulate their parents, even so far as to actually pilot a jumper etc manually, rather than 'interface' with it directly.

and why not use only jumpers? because in Sins you need to be able to distingush from fighters and bombers, so someone came up with a clever new ship...

Weapon drones of course.  We felt the need to have individual figthers and bombers. Not a combined ship for both roles.   Also a little update on the Tauri in general coding wise.   The Tauri are almost complete. A few more ships and structures and they will be complete!!!! Untill the final shakedown before intial release.  One race almost done and two to go .   BTW WHEN ARE WE GOING TO GET SOMEONE TO VOLUNTEER TO TEXTURE FOR ALL OF US?????  EVERYONE WANTS US TO RELEASE THE MOD ASAP, BUT NO-ONE WANTS TO HELP!!!! OR CONTRIBUTE. SO WITH THAT BEING SAID CALLING ALL MODDERS WHO KNOW HOW TO TEXTURE AND WANT TO HELP PLEASE CONTACT ME

Give a try with a new post on the modding list JTAYLORPCS. Maybe if someone see a new entry that your looking for an texture artist would help. I would help if i could.

Just a FYI we now have a  texture artist. Danman has agreed to join our team and do some texture work for us all!!!   All includes you!!!  too .  However we are still looking for a full time texture artist . Being that Danman has 7ds and his many other projects. I would like to take this time to say Welcome to the Team,  Danman . We are looking forward to the great things we can do together. O:)
