Ok, so I’ve created new abilities for the Hades Basestar and the Guardian Basestar (and I’ve made a few other minor changes to some of the other capital ship abilities). I’ve attached all the modded files Z, all you need to do is add them in plus the new icons etc, and the strings which I’ve also done below. Also, the Hades, Guardian and Guardian MkII capitals didn’t have the resurrection ability? I’ve now added those in as well.
Hades Basestar
1. Pulsar cannon (New ability)
2. Launch AB Raiders (Existing ability)
3. EMP (New ability, no new ability icon needed – have used one that already exists)
4. Invasion (Existing ability. Please replace ability icon with the one I’ve sent you)
Strings:
StringInfo
ID "IDS_ABILITY_CYLON_PULSARCANNON_NAME"
Value "Pulsar Cannon"
StringInfo
ID "IDS_ABILITY_CYLON_PULSARCANNON_DESCRIPTION"
Value "Fires a high velocity slug at the target, which deals a high amount of physical damage and cripples its engine systems.”
StringInfo
ID "IDS_ABILITY_CYLON_EMP_NAME"
Value "EMP"
StringInfo
ID "IDS_ABILITY_CYLON_EMP_DESCRIPTION"
Value "An electromagnetic pulse emanates from this ship, knocking out the engines of surrounding enemy ships and causing them to drift.”
Guardian Basestar
1. Raider Swarm (new ability. Have provided an ability icon)
2. First Hybrid (new ability. Have provided an ability icon)
3. EMP (same as Hades ability)
4. Invasion (same as Hades ability)
StringInfo
ID “IDS_ABILITY_CYLON_RAIDERSWARM_NAME”
Value “Raider Swarm”
StringInfo
ID “IDS_ABILITY_CYLON_RAIDERSWARM_DESCRIPTION”
Value “Numerous squads of raiders are all launched at once to overwhelm the enemy.”
StringInfo
ID “IDS_ABILITY_CYLON_FIRSTHYBRID_NAME”
Value “First Hybrid”
StringInfo
ID “IDS_ABILITY_CYLON_FIRSTHYBRID_DESCRIPTION”
Value “The Guardian Centurions view the First Hybrid as their god, and will fight furiously to defend it.”
Basestar Class
I’ve removed the “Disorientation Virus” ability. It didn’t really represent the Cylons ability to shut down enemy ships (Disorientation virus only disabled their engines). I’ve now given the Basestar capitals the “Lockdown Virus” ability, with red eye effect that you created Z. Lockdown represents the Cylons ability much better, and it was also removed from the Hades and Guardian so makes sense to move it over to the Basestar.
I have kept the Disorientation Virus icon for the ability though, which is better than the existing Lockdown virus icon.
Guardian MkII
Didn’t have a resurrection link, which I’ve now added.
Have updated the Enhanced Nanorobots ability, which needed to be more powerful than the Basestars “Organic Armor” ability. I'm also going to add a new effect, which I haven't done yet.
StringInfo
ID “IDS_ABILITY_CYLON_HYBRIDUPGRADES_NAME”
Value “Hybrid Upgrades”
StringInfo
ID “IDS_ABILITY_CYLON_HYBRIDUPGRADES_DESCRIPTION”
Value “The hybrid is upgraded with the most advanced technology available, resulting in faster repair rates, weapon range and FTL jump speed.”
Resurrection Ship
I've created a new icon for the “Resurrection” ability (Ships 4th ability, not the “Extend Resurrection” ability icon!)
