Gameplay Guide
Faction Overview:
- A focus on long range fire, helped by the fact that with their integral hullmod their ships will typically outrange opponents.
- Vulnerable to flanking by merit of very narrow shield arcs and limited weapons coverage to the sides and rear.
- Drones or Built-in wings on all ships that either provide fire support, or grant some sort of buff while deployed.
Ships:
- Efficient, but narrow shields making them excel in line warfare, but are vulnerable to flanking.
- Limited numbers of weapon mounts, this is compensated to an extent by having above average quality weaponry, but they can suffer from an extended time to kill.
- Carriers have limited numbers of flight decks, but Kyeltziv Strikecraft LPCs can typically compensate for this by being above average in performance.
- Rather decent armour, but poor hull.
- Drone shipsystems will slowly rebuild lost drones, so it can be a perfectly reasonable tactic to use them as ablative armour against inbound torpedoes or other high-damage munitions.
- The Variable Weapon Booster system is not tremendously strong, but offers modest and highly appreciated improvements to weapon power/flux management on the ships that mount it.
- Some ships are cheap to maintain and deploy for their hull size but typically lack in armament in exchange. These ships can work well to help fill out the battle line or act as escorts and prevent more valuable vessels from being flanked.
- Phase vessels receive improved ballistic weapon performance as hard flux goes up, encouraging you to deliver a decisive blow when you attack, as it can be hard to retreat safely when high on hard flux.
Weapons:
- Ballistics tend towards longer ranges, and are typically highly efficient at suppression, but in general have relatively poor capability against heavier armour.
- Missile weapons cover a variety of roles, the Kinetic and HE options exist to support your primary ballistic armament in dealing with that which it suffers against.
- The Thap and Vedha line of missile weapons are general purpose support weapons, with regenerating ammo, making them valuable in protracted engagements, but are a mix of highly specialised and poor damage output.
- A couple of ships feature a built in Shock-Driver, a long ranged kinetic cannon with limited guidance, while vulnerable to PD weaponry they can also deliver a sizable EMP effect on hull impacts.
- All but one of their energy weapons are PD options, with the dischargers being the cheaper options, and while the stutter beam, graviton sweeper and smart blaster are all premium options, they are not necessarily better in all situations.
Fighters:
- The normal fighters have a high craft count per wing, but in exchange have much higher OP costs than comparable common wings of the same role.
- The corvette wings are very much on the high end for OP costs and unlike the other Kyeltziv strikecraft you only get one or two per wing, but they are very durable for fighters and pack impressive weapon loads.
- All fighters are unmanned drones, that have reduced engagement range over more common fighters.
Specialisation Hullmods
These allow for customization of Kyeltziv vessels, with a focus on specific combat roles.
- The Assault Package is a departure from typical Kyeltziv doctrine, sacrificing weapon range for speed and improved armour.
- The Support Package focuses on shield effectiveness and point defense capability, making a ship more capable of holding the line of fire against all kinds of threats.
- The Siege Package improves venting and resistance to kinetic damage in exchange for removed mobility, very much a tradeoff to install but very effective on backline vessels that are flux limited.
- The Assault Loader increases ballistic damage output and flux efficiency, in exchange for reduced performance against armour and increased shot spread, good for pure aggression at shorter ranges.
- The Siege Loader increases ballistic per-shot damage, range and velocity, in exchange for lower fire rate and reduced flux efficiency, ideal for long range suppressive bombardment.
- The Autoforge Loader increases shipsystem drone rebuild rate, and improves missile rate of fire, damage and munition health, a situational choice that is best for carriers or vessels that otherwise focus more heavily on missiles.

Other:
- The potency of all EMP arcs should now scale with any damage modifiers to the firing weapons.
Imo the fusion buster group of weapons don't match the faction whatsoever and seem lackluster/useless with the limited testing ive done with them
Busters are meant as "low penetration high DPS" and with the changes in this patch, they should be more worthwhile options to pick.
On a per-shot basis they are not the best option for their mount size, but launch a decently sized burst of shots which can strip light armour very effectively but start to fall off in effectiveness against tougher armour.

Hey i've being breaking my head over doing minor DIY modifcation to this mod. Issue im having by default mod adds a system which still present in Nexerlin random core system, and i'd prefer Kyeltziv being random as all other factions. I've had similar issue few other mods in the past but managed to somehow rip out the system\planets from gen, while here im kind of stuck removing it from generation without crashing the game.
Can i get a tip what i need to edit\delete to achieve this?
Full source is included with the mod so you can look at that, but you'd have to go into data/scripts/world/kyeltzivGen.java and stop it from running kyeltziv_koltsevayaGen and then recompile the .jar

A minor compatibility patch for linux users.
Update 1.7
Two new ships and three new weapons. Alongside various smaller updates, being a combination of QoL and balance. Also Ind.Evo (https://fractalsoftworks.com/forum/index.php?topic=18011.0) support and a Magicbounty Chain.
The new ships are:
The Paimen is a combat freighter frigate that deploys a swarm of Kiusa drones, most effective as a point defense escort if actually deployed into a battle.
The Zlatko adds another option for use as a line-combat destroyer, with a good shield and a pack of escort gun drones.
The new weapons are:
A medium-slot PD blaster with tracking projectiles, highly effective against fast/evasive targets.
A mid-long range beam weapon that can slow/disable ships with concentrated fire.
A medium-slot modular shock-driver that acts as long range kinetic damage, albeit with lowish DPS.
Update is Save Compatible.

It's a pretty strange bug since it doesn't seem to have a consistent trigger so far. I've had it happen once, then once I tried the fight again it worked fine despite the same ship still being present. Isn't it just a variant of Coke Burn from DomHist too? Are there any reports of similar bugs for that mod, or any significant deviations from its script?
This system uses vanilla burn drive AI, and coke burn uses a custom AI, and i'm pretty sure the cause of this crash was some obscure and esoteric bug caused by the vanilla burn drive AI triggering before the ship is spawned ??? This patch should divert all of the script components that could cause issues (crashes) with the AI into a hidden hullmod, meaning i can keep using the nice vanilla AI.
Update 1.10
0.96 update patch (better late than never) also features a wide range of balance/mechanical tweaks, most notable of which being the change of some ships to no-longer feature a drone shipsystem.
