[WIP]THRESHOLD MOD

THE YGGDRASIL HOMEWORLD

The Yggdrasil race are able to colonize only a single planet type, the rift planet.  No other race is able to colonize rift planets.

Yggdrasil worlds produce no income or resources and their only means of obtaining them is to siphon resources from captured resource asteroids or to drain resources from enemy colonized worlds.  These resource capturing processes are used by the mothership but are done much more effectively through the use of lectoids.

Rift worlds open produce intermittent fields that interfere with most ship abilities and generate gravitational vortices that sporadically prevent the launch of strike craft as well.  Additionally, gravitational distortions negatively impact weapons targeting and the immense gravitation force of the rift draws ships in towards the planet when they approach too closely.  Intense radiation fields almost insure the destruction of any vessels approaching the surface of a rift planet.

Due to their extra-dimensional nature, Yggdrasil are unaffected by these phenomenon.

The only means to siege and seal a rift planet is to recover one of TEC produced singularity siege ships.

MOTILE SPORES

SPORE ABILITIES

Motile spores are mobile and sterile spore nuclei that do not develop further and serve specific purposes--such as the creation of unstable micro-singularities, siphoning of resource asteroids and generation of various energy fields.

Motile Spores require antimatter for generation and can be produced by the mothership and some lectoids.

THE SINGULARITY SIEGE SHIP

Utilizing a drive produced by the original TEC corporation, Yoyodyne Propulsion Systems, the singularity siege ship was designed around the same technology that is rumored to have caused the opening of the original rift worlds--the oscillation overthruster. This is a drill-like thruster that is based on the same appendage used by the Yggdrasil to transit inter-dimensional space.

All of these ships were lost while attempting to siege the first Yggdrasil rift planet...having been pulled into eighth dimensional space near the rift vortex. Being protected by their oscillation overthruster drives, these ships later re-emerged unharmed but crewless  into normal space at scattered locations.  Reports indicate these relics have nearly all been recovered by various pirate factions though the slight chance exists that others remain undiscovered and may be encountered elsewhere.

Extremely close proximity to singularity siege ships disables ship abilities due to the intense eight dimensional radiation stored in their drives.

HOW IT WORKS

GUNSHIPS?

There is a parallel strike craft mod I am releasing with this that has a gunship type strike craft.

So is this another mod your needing someone to build?

At this point you mod is more confusing than mine

The dead do not desire confusion.

My primary mod is Threshold but the add-on mods usable with it or stand-alone will be a pirate, strikecraft and a mine mini-mod...along with the random encounter AI race mini-mod, The Cargo Cult.
