New Update! Check OP or download it below.

https://www.dropbox.com/s/25dqknviop755wf/Valkyrians.zip

This will contain some later planned features that this mod was intended to contain due to an LP which Justin (aka Axiege) is going to start recording, the LP is going to be showcasing our fantastic modding community, featuring: Uomoz Corvus and all the mods it contains, Gedune, And the Valkyrians. He has planned to start it Wednesday.

Added

- A 300 FP boss fleet Featuring the Vatican Mk.IV( this fleet will sit at the edge of the system, waiting for you to get stronger or until you feel ready to engage it, once you hit level 30, it will attack you despite you being ready or not and turn every valkyrian against you, you have to defeat this fleet for the valkyrians to become neutral again.)

NOTE Only the player can defeat this fleet, it will flat out crush any fleet of any size through autoresolve to prevent it getting weaker and it cannot capture anything, thus preventing it from getting stronger, this is an End-game fleet, thus intended to be balanced against a player with high level and skills and a fleet to match.

- Fuel convoy composition changed, it will contain a Prometheus instead of a phaeton.
- The faction will no longer supply weapons from other mods.
- Convoys will now spawn from the bottom right corner of the map, this is also where the Boss fleet is located.
- Changed the Vatican II and III Health back to their original values.
- Morgiana, Sahara, Azgard and Lightning Fighters cost less FP

Loved it but the battle at this point was not that hard

It was hard to get there because the fleet is hunting you around.
It´s slow but watch out where you fly if you aren´t ready to take the fleet

Cool idea with switching valkyrians to hostile at level 30 and back to friendly ( whoo i feel like the surrendered to me )

Thanks ValkyriaL!

Changes

- Changed the Support variant for Vatican III

Misc

- Fixed a typo on the .faction file that could cause a crash to people using Linux OS.
- Fixed typo in the Vatican II description.

Please report anything odd or if something is to strong.

[conorano]

could you maybe tone down the amount of fleets attacking other factions. becouse 5 of them are currently circling around blackrock drive yards and are obliterating anything that passes by.

[ValkyriaL]

I can't chose what fleets attack others factions, if they are hostile, they will attack them, i can reduce the total amount of fleets however.

Yes you can. Just have to set it in the factions relationship files/geberators, methinks.

[conorano]

i think rreducing the amount of fleets would be good. it currently sends out 5 and it seems they are following eachother

[ValkyriaL]

The first video of the new series will be released on Monday! check Axiege plays starfarer thread for more info,

The videos will use the current version of the mod too prevent the saves from being ruined by save compatibility.

Changes for the next release.

- Maximum number of fleets reduced to 8 from 12.
- working on a custom AI for the incendiary ammo system, so it won't just kamikaze in your face, if it doesn't work, I'l remake the entire system
- Proper Military/Advanced variants for the new Yuusha frigates.
- Vatican I and Vatican II taken out of service, can be bought from the station instead, Replaced by the Yoshura-Class Battleship.

- Changed some fleet compositions and sizes.
- Cleaned up the simulator, it had way to many ships.
- Rearranging the OP post, since I'm getting allot of ships now.

Yeah!  I've been waiting for this update to play with your mod again for 24 hours!  So much sadness crossed my face when I tried to download yesterday and I couldn't.  Now, it's tears of joy.  Thanks!
