Arkon FACTION HEROES CARRIER SHIPS 2

With this mod, the heroes of the major factions uses the carrier ships instead of the white/red nutshells.
The heroes of the minor factions receive the carrier ship designs of the VODYANI.

The other QUEST heroes:
Sophons Mavro hero Krak "Cubed" Bleis uses a Sophons carrier ship class.

Horatio hero "Five" uses a Horatio carrier ship.

Endless hero "Reyaryn Cious" uses a Cravers carrier ship.

Endless hero "Tiaych Zhilleaq" uses a Vodyani carrier ship.

Rhync Raggiodri, a.k.a. The Photobomber uses an improved version of the classic Drop hero ship class.

Fluffpetal Gurk'Zvar uses the BLOODY HELLHOUND, a very deadly armed ORTAAM carrier class ship.
Be warned when hunting the Pirate Leader and be prepared for a tough fight with his very large and fast rogue fleet!

The Survivor (ESG Mod Vodyani hero) uses a Vodyani carrier ship.


Remember that the heroes of the opposing empires (human/AI) also use these ship designs!


This mod greatly enhances the ship designs of the pirates and minor factions.
Also the ships that are gained through purchase, explorations or quests are affected.
Thus, the pirates again represents a greater threat, especially at higher game difficulty levels.
Their original design was just too lax.

So keep an eye on your exploration ships.


"Preserve the Academy"
The Vodyani extremist fleets pose a great danger and threaten to destroy the Academy!
A real challenge for all empires ...


Since this mod alters the files HeroDefinitions.xml, ShipDesignDefinitions(MinorFactions) and BattleActionDefinitions.xml, it will come to conflict with mods, which also change these files!

If you use other mods (like ESG) that also alters the files mentioned above,
put the FACTION HEROES SHIPS mod LAST in the loading order to ensure that the correct game mechanics changes are made.
The changes in the Droplists.xml file can be safely overwritten if necessary. The resulting events are then those of the base game.

This mod should be compatible with other HERO mods, if these mods ONLY define the variables of the new hero(es) in the file "HeroDefinitions".
Of course, these new heroes will then use the original little red/white vessels.
