Modding / [0.96] The Apocrita Association v0.3.1
« on: May 02, 2023, 11:12:45 AM »The Apocrita Association
The Apocrita Association is a small faction mod with a handful of ships, several being focused on built-in weapons.
-A small faction with 14 ships.
-2 pirate and 2 Persean League variants of those ships.
-6 non-built-in weapons.
-1 non-built-in fighter.
-7 High-Value Bounties.
I'm looking for feedback! Especially with balancing stuff!
