Help
OK. I'm starting a scenario file called Excalibur. The Gaitori have attacked UNS resistance outposts with a new ship called the GCS Mal. Your only chance is to fight back with a new ship - The Excalibur. you have to build the excalibur, escort plans, destroy gaitori outposts etc. in your quest to save Sol.
I've already done the first 2 missions : Food for Thought and Malignance.
FfT: Basic Planet thing: protect the plans on Fansi Alpha.
Malignance: Original objectives: investigate energy, New (after a short time) objectives: get a visual on the Mal and get the hell outta there.
If anyone wants to volunteer, I need:
•Weapons Expert
•Ship Designer
•Artist
•Level Designer
•Beta Testers (later).
Can anyone help me out? My email adress is Alistair_Lynn<MISTAKE>@BTConnect.com but leave out the '<MISTAKE>' part, that's just there to fool the Email Bots. I'll up whatever's ready to whoever volunteers,

Um, i'm sure the Gatori are just springing back from being nearly exterminated by both the canthrians and the ishmans, just to kill the uprising humans.
Sure I can do graphics. So you need some kind of human battleship thingy?
As a warning, I am not getting involved in any large scale project if that is what this turns into. I'll only do a few graphics.
And by the way Agent_Vast you better be able to handle this project on your own.

Sure, Skyfox. I've just finished the Mal, if the Juggernaut ship thing from the Hera Tutorial is good enough. If not, can you send me some kind of Gaitoriish replacement?
P.S. The Mal's got a Concussive Pellet Gun, Ultra powerful Supernova Missles and an instant hit Disruptor Cannon, which does huge damage, so the Excalibur better look up to scratch to take down a ship with five hundred million shields.
EDIT: And yes, I can handle the project on my own, I just need the experts shown at the top.

OK. For Mission 4, you have to escort the parts for the Excalibur. I need some kind of graphic for a Human Cargo Ship.

This is set about 200 years after Sol was taken back from the Cantharans.
UPDATE: Misson 3, an extra training mission, is complete now.
UPDATE: Mission 2 has now been updated with the revised Mal and you have to get close to the Mal, not just wait.
UPDATE: Mission 4 complete apart from new sprites for the cargo ships.

No that juggernaut ship (battleship thingy from tut?) is not in any way gatori. Hmm, you any good at drawing? Do you have any basic idea of what you want the ship to look like? If I could have an idea of what i'm doing it makes my job much easier.
Oh, i'm not going to be avialable this week. (finals)

Not really. Just make something that looks Gaitori, mean, tough and seriosly on steroids. Make it about 1.5X the size of a Gaitori Carrier. Oh yeah, have a gun and a missile rack abound, and that with coordinates.

Success - The Mal's Pods are ready!
These little ----ers fly around and have beams that slow down a ship and take a huge drain on it's energy and shields. One or two are OK, but don't get caught in a swarm. They are created randomly when something collides with the Mal.
