This is a small ship pack mod I've been tinkering away at for a while now and I feel it's in a decent enough state now for a first release on the forums. It adds a couple new ships and weapon of different tech levels and styles, including some new themed content that's going to be expanded upon with more features in the future. The mod is still in its earlier stages and in some parts a bit experimental, but I hope you'll find something to enjoy in my little toybox here.

Congrats on the public release, love the Great House ship design assembly mechanic.

You make angry looking ship when it isn't purple or pink.

[Nia Tahl]

Made a gif showing off most of the added weapons. Also adding it to the first post in the GH section.

[SCC]

Nice to see this on the forum. I might write some slightly detailed about the ships later on, once I finish the IBB run. One bit I can say now is that Korikaze frigates seem to be pretty strong for their weight, and they get a boost when near the cruiser.

[Sin]

Great looking mod.
But there is one thing.....when i look at Nessie i just see two mean faces, sorry but can't really help it.

Not sure which version you are running, but I tuned down the Korikaze recently. Will have another look if it's still a bit strong. Will probably bump up their supply value to ~8

Blame David for that one. He clearly made it so the Gremlin's phase coil looks like a face.

[Wyvern]

Well, this mod is going in the next time I start a new game.

Nessie just reminds me of a T-shirt I've got - a picture of the Loch Ness Monster, with "Believe in yourself... even if no-one else does."  It's a good name for a phase cruiser.

I love how its quite clearly two gremlin's firmly? attached to an engine. The depth of thought in some of these ships are fantastic. I love your mods!

[jupjupy]

That Nessie just screams "Now this is pod racing!"

[Nia Tahl]

no, this is podracing

[Tei]

My wife Onslaught has a new skin(clothes). Solid 10/10.

[Cheru]

Boy oh boy... this is wonderful! I have witnessed the full might of this fully armed and operational mod... and I can't stop drooling xD

But... will I find these ships/weapons or their schematics if I add this mod on an existing save? Plz... give me hope
