Background

"After the successful discovery of the strategically important resource "novrinium" by an early Domain exploration fleet by the Outer Northern Expeditionary Force. Communications quickly ceased before accurate coordinates would be successfully transferred.

As the collapse of the Domain gate network happened quickly and without warning. Critical food supplies dwindled, harrowing stories of survival among the previously growing population became commonplace. The newly founded joint military/civilian government laid the groundwork to what would ultimately become the centralized government of the Northern Expedition. Once again taking up the mantle set aside by their forebears, pockets of civilization planetside banded together spurred on by the motto, "Strength through Unity; Unity through sacrifice". Utilizing the highly abundant and efficient "novrinium" into industrial and domestic applications. The population of Asutice which once faced extinction slowly grew sizable, once again ready to explore the reaches beyond their sector. "

Congratulations on getting the mod out. I'll be sure to give it a look when I can ( currently very, very occupied with the UAF ) and I also see some decent improvement on the ships as well but I think they could use a little more touch or two to make them look better.

All the ships have a simple and cool design. This looks like a fun mode to play.

The only problem I see with the ships is the 4th destroyer down. All the ships but that one have a symmetrical vertical design that is off putting and jaring.
