Check out the Roider Union submarkets on:
- Druzhinin's Anchorage in the Atka system
- Orthrus in the Samarra system

They don't have any full markets in the current version.

Still hoping for an update for my fav Independent Sub-faction! Some more civilian warship refits would be awesome :)

is it possible to add Nex support for them, since you can take a commission?

The bad news is that there will not be an update for the Roider Union for at least a couple more months.

The good news is that the Roiders will be a proper faction mod with Nex support and a full ship lineup! I've teamed up with Gwyvern, who can art good, and we've completed several never-before-seen ships in a new, distinctive style. Some old ships, along with the current ships, will also be returning in the new style.

There's lots more to do, though, so a preview will come when we are closer to the finish line.

I'm really looking forward to seeing this become a full mod, but I do think the interceptors are a bit too fast. They're faster than Thunders, and Thunders are honestly quite unbalanced in no small part due to their speed. It's somewhat less egregious since their weapons aren't a major threat to ships, but they can still screw with point defense effectively. Maybe tone their speed down to ~350, and give them a little more bulk to compensate, ~50 more hitpoints?

Huh... sorry, I mis-read it as 500 somehow. Still ungodly fast, but less so than Thunders. Anyways, keep up the good work!

I am happy to announce the new Roider ship lineup is done! Here's a teaser of some common Roider ships and fighters skirmishing with pirates:



Update will be a while yet. Lots of tedious things to work through.

How do you actually retrofit ships? It seems like an awesome concept but i don't really know how.

In the current release you can go to Druzhinin's Anchorage in the Atka system (southwest part of core worlds) and talk to the Roider base commander in the comm directory, like if you wanted to take a commission.


In the upcoming version retrofitting will be at the bar instead for quick and easy access. Retrofitting itself will also be more convenient.
