If I may I'd like to repost my idea for a Khaak start. Although this one will have to wait til the new version comes out. Khaak Matriarch Race: Khaak Difficulty: Hard (i suppose it would be) Ship(s): Tiamat (Max upgrades + loadouts) 20 Ifrits, 12 Ahrimans Rakshasa Credits: 1,000,000 Salvage Insurance: 5 Sector: One of the unknown sectors way down south, Boron and Split border sectors would provide some good raiding opportunities. Relations: Bad with everybody, Good with Khaak. Operation Final Fury should be marked as completed Might not be the best for a long game but gives you a chance to start some carnage and try out the new Khaak. EDIT: On second thought, I'd like to see a fleet commander start for other races as well. In vanilla you have only one I think.. _________________ X-Tra Ship/Station Pack Warp Gate Redesign

Fleet commander? Do you mean like the Teladi Admiral start?

yep, basically a military quick-start where you get a handful of capital ships would go great with EmperorJon's Military Plugin. _________________ X-Tra Ship/Station Pack Warp Gate Redesign

I have started with two starts (Paranid/Argon) along the lines of the Terran Secret Agent start (since currently neither race has an M2+/M1+ yet Wink

).

nice! For the ATF and USC Admiral starts you might wanna switch the number of M3 and M4 around. So you get more more M4 and less M3. And I'll fix the Taipan M6 dock issue by next update. _________________ X-Tra Ship/Station Pack Warp Gate Redesign

Not included in v0.1 but will consider them for the next release. The Wolfpack start will almost certainly be a non-plot start.

Can you actually be freinds with the Xenon ? I'm not sure you can. Like pirates and khaak, some of them always spawn as enemies. Once I get Cadius into the Merge Mod, I'd be happy to include your starts as well. _________________ Apricot Mapping Services HQ CLICK HERE for : X3R/TC Handbook; X3R, TC and AP Guides, Mods, & Scripts; X3R, TC and AP Downloads Apricot X3 Forum

I am not certain, but the mutual flag seems to make it work for the majority of Xenon. Any ships that are explicitly set as enemy to player will probably still be enemies, but that is true of ships from any race.

Feel free to do so, but remember that the starts do require AWRM v0.22 and will currently not work with the CMOD patch as I have not had a chance to update it yet... should be done by the end of next week at the latest.

Cmod is not something I worry about being compatible with.

AWRM is my weapons mod (adds weapons and missiles for the Commonwealth and Terrans). The new starts spawn ships with weapons from that mod.
