Topic: ANNOUNCEMENT & CONTEST: "The Borg Invasion" mod.

[Capt. Ravenous]

I have started work on a new mod for SFC3, "The Borg Invasion" mod.
Features of this mod will include:
1. Tougher Borg AI ships
2. Singleplayer Dynaverse set-up for Federation, Klingon, and Romulan vs. Borg
3.Subsystem targetting borg ships will become useless (you'll likely destroy the borg ship than take out one of its systems), as will hit&runs on borg ships.
4. The borg ability to "adapt" will be simulated using shields (not as tough as other races' shields, but they regenerate quickly).

Here comes the contest part:

I will be collecting the highest quality models for this mod. I've posted the ship line-up for this mod below. If you think you have better models than what is already here, then send it in (capt-ravenous@shaw.ca). Your ship will show up in the mod, with your name in the ship-selection credits. If you send in a ship description with your model, be sure to include your e-mail address, so people will know who you are and can thank you for your wonderful model(s).

FEDERATION:
BB - Missouri (JOKER'S TNG variant)
DN - Sovereign
BC - Prometheus (model needed)
CA - Akira
CL - Steamrunner
DD - Defiant
FF - Saber

KLINGON:
BB - (model needed)
DN - Negh'Var
BC - Vorcha
CA - Fek'Lhr
CL - K'T'Inga

CA - Assimilator (Wicked Zombie's, used in current mod)

Can you do better than the models I've listed? Is there a model not here (but in the game already) that you think should be replaced by your wonder of beauty? Then send it ASAP. I'll keep the contest open for a week before I release the mod. Hurry, hurry!

SOunds really good.

Though despite the fact that I might not get SFC3 anytime soon and that I would give good praise, I have one question...

Why is the Valdore a BB?  It's not even longer (though wider than) a Sovereign, and mabye almost or just as powerful (as opposed to the more-superior D'Deridex Warbird Battleships)... Though granted, there is little canonical info, I just doubt the Valdore would be a bigger, more-powerful version of a Warbird.  I think it's more of a response to fast battlecruisers of Starfleet's, and wanted a ship lighter and more manuverable, making a formidable rival of ships such as the Akira-class.  Just to make it clear that Romulans don't just build giant ships, I suppose.  I know the Imperials do, but then that's Star Wars and I badly wish to have Jedi Knight 2: Jedi Outcast just as much as I do SFC3.

Your arguement is moot.
I have the Valdore as a DN in my first mod. But seeing as how the model is so freakishly BIG, I decided to make it a BB, with advanced weaponry and such. If someone could make me a properly sized Valdore, I may make it a DN again........
