MVS ships focus on long range firepower, combat endurance, and sustained ordnance barrages. To this end, their vessels have longer peak performance times, and all their missile weapons reload over time. However, their ships and weapons are costly to deploy and mount.

Have an issue with this mod: the "hammer" ship crashes my game the second I hover my mouse over it to display informations on it.

Other than that... the MVS ships look flat in a weird way. It's especially notable on the cainhurst since its Onslaught-based. the weapons kinda have the same issue: they do stand out compared to the base games and other mods, and not because of a specific design or color scheme... the artsyle overall feels simpler

Out of raw looks of the MVS ships though, like the mod :)

Ah, I'll see what I can do about the crash part
That thing is meant to be unobtainable, and the sprite is even lower quality than average, probably going to remove it
I'm probably going scrap the Cainhurst sprite eventually, and rebuild the ship from scratch
I'll make sure to make the rest of the roster less flat-looking.
My apologies if anything's too off.
The cruiser is the least bad of the bunch, right?
Edit: the hammer ship is gone now
probably won't break saves as long as you haven't obtained it

no worries I didn't get it.. but it DOES appear in the codex like a darn landmine

And yeah the cruisers look better (though the Provisioner is probably the worst of the whole bunch.. it's like it's engines and the rest of it's hull belong to 2 different games!) but overall I get the same feel over all of them... their sprites don't give as much as an impression of volume as the rest of the game, giving me a vibe of "flying caucer with edges" instead of something less flat :p (and it affects some weapons too, main culprit being heavy railcannon probably because it's size makes it more obvious). I'm no artist so sadly i have no idea how sprite makers pull it off. Wish i did :/

and thanks for that crash machine being gone! :) Can't wait for the update release so i don't have to live in fear of my mouse ever hovering over that monster anymore :p

Yeah, not sure how to fix the Provisioner sprite, might redo it entirely
The current file should be the version with it gone
Thank you for your patience!

Updated the mod, and tested the public version, ship systems should be working properly.
Please feel free to report any other issues.

Very cool mod :) Can you check the Talon Fighter? In the description it should have a Coil CIWS but it still equipped with a vulcan cannon (see attachment).

I really like the idea of a faction having. long range firepower, combat endurance, and sustained ordnance barrages.
I really like the play style to sit behind and defend and slowly bring down smaller ships of opponent or put a lot of pressure to break the bigger ships one by 1.

Although i feel the faction needs a bit more expanding before playing it. Also the art needs a bit more work, the ships don't look 3d like in some parts and might need some bumps.

Also those pirate capitals and the conquest's look great, dose the 3rd conquest have a weapon in the center?

Don't worry, working on the art, probably will completely redo the onslaught-looking ship
The third Conquest variant has a spinal railgun, yes.
