I'm using V1.4 of "The New Generation".

The enemies fly better and their shields rebuild! Plus, it has a lot more ships, some of which are my favorites from Sci-Fi

Your right your are mad to say that on here lol.

However, if all mods are cheats then my mod makes is a tougher game cheat
Odd im sure youd agree considering most cheats make things easier for the player.

BTW Hu is SP and MP.

Well, people seem to have misinterpreted my response a little bit... I do like the Rebalance Mod for the most part, it does make the game harder in certain ways and slightly more annoying in other ways.

I am still currently playing through the SP storyline with it, but one thing I found extremely annoying rather then more difficult was just last night when I had to kill a group of Outcasts (very early in the storyline) and they all were Very Heavy Fighters!! It was like I was shooting blanks at them, my weapons had virtually no effect on their superior armor.

I guess this was intended to make it more difficult, but since they didn't fire any more then usual and I had no trouble avoiding their shots it was more of a huge pain in the a$$ rather then a challenge to kill them all lol.

I'm not complaining about the Mod, the people who made it did a great job, however I will continue to point out any flaws that could be fixed of course, constructive criticism.

Hello Spock.

Yes its a shame because thats not the only way to make things harder. Each AI ship can have multiple loadouts so it is possible to vary the mix to the point where they are not all Very heavy fighters with impossible armour roles. In fact i like the make my loadouts with weapon and armour and shield rating going from utter noob to hard nut case. This way the hitpoints are the same but the ships available to take and dish out damage is vastly different depending on the level of the AI pilot.

The game still chooses the AIs it wants to use but you give it more choices this way.

The Rebalance Mod does very the shis that attack you from different factions, however, in the SP storyline in certain places it is only supposed to be one type of ship attacking you, so I guess when it was substituted it only did so with a single type of ship from the various possibilities.

I've been playing the 'fight lite' mod the past few days and I really like it. The ships are balanced and appropriate for their level. You can only get fighters with class 4 max loadout in Liberty. Bretonia offers max class 6 fighters. All of the ships I've seen so far have been light fighters, but I like the LF's the best anyway.

Oh, new question, I know I am gonna get yelled at for this one... lol

Whats the "best" ship in the Rebalance Mod with all the equipment you can buy not counting. I realize many people have many different tastes and I appreciate that, but I would also like to know, for when I do reach the "end" of the game again, what is the best VHF I will be able to buy in this Mod.

I have found that although the choice and amount of ships is very varied, there still are always ones that have the most gun mounts, and best class and work better then the others, so I am sure there must also be a VHF like this...

Now don't start complaining about how there are so many different types of ships, you can't call one the best, I am being narrow-minded, I know, I know already. lol I'd just like to know the name, (just name not where to buy it) of the most heavily armored and all around best equipped VHF.

I haven't really found all of the ships in this (the rebalance) mod(s), but I truly love the Voyager. Not because I'm a hard-core Trek fan, but because of those kickin phasers! WHOO! The Voyager has spots for any lvl 10 weps. It has a decent armor rating ~17000 and cargo hold ~550 as well. Combine this ship with the best upgrades (shield, engine, power plant, etc) and you have a heck of a freighter-fighter I don't know (much) about the other VHF's but this so far is my fav.

Voyager? Captain Kirk would be disappointed I have to resort to another Federation vessel other then the Enterprise to make my stake in life. : ~ )
