Update?

still works as of 4.1.5

Is this still compatible with 4.0+?

shipset please

any chance this could be a standalone shipset(preferably nsc compatability)
if so thank you

i second greyapache's opinion

make this a shipset

Now I need a full shipset based on these! Absolutely gorgeous!

Now that I actually get to try Nemesis, this mod is a lifesaver

It's hard to take a comically evil empire seriously if they're using asteroid pirate wannabe ships. This, it looks royal enough to be imposing, but also rugged enough to be convincing

Thanks for the mod, looks amazing! The original ones are such a pile of pirate scrapmetal it doesnt feel very menacing

is this NSC3 compatible?

@Wippi It's not a standalone shipset but a reskin of the ships you get when you take the "become the crisis" ascension path

dont work anymore ... shipset dont appear in the Spezies Designer for me

Thank you stepdad.

I'd also love this as a stand alone ship set

Please make this as a separate shipset to be used at game start

I'd also really like this as a shipset

love these, dont know if its possible but standalone would be great to use them from the beginning. especially since im a bad player and keep losing before i can become the menace lol

awesome, thank you

Kewl, always nice to have options for menace ships.

it probably is compatible, you will probably just get the standard mammal models for the new ship classes.

This mod is save game compatible and won't break anything if enabled mid game. You could load a save with NSC and this mod to check if it works or not. If it doesn't work you can easily just disable it and it won't break anything.

Well they do have some unique ship classes like Carrier, dreadnought, and Flagship.

I haven't used it so I wouldn't know. It depends weather or not it adds more classes to menacing ships or not. My guess is they will work just fine, and if not all that will happen is that these ships don't show up or replaces only some of the ships but not all.

is the mod NSC3 compatible?

Ok, thanks

Haven't tested it, but I'd imagine it would work fine since the game originally just uses the pirate ship meshes for the menacing ships while I've replaced those meshes with different ones. In other words, the mods are most definitely compatible.

How does this mod work with "pirate ships without rocks"?

The ships look very nice, before I read the description I thought these were custom modeled ships lol.

Oh thanks! Sorry!

I'm getting a "Missing Descriptor file" warning

@Ahjumma Yes, you didn't read the description.
It replaces the menacing ships. The ones you get from picking the 'Become the Crisis' perk.
It is NOT a shipset to pick at empire creation.

This ship option doesn't show up for me, even if it's the only mod installed and active. Is there something I'm doing wrong?

Can we get an addon that adds the other ship classes as a feature? Its always bugged me that we don't-

@Pablo Por Favor
I've seen the four prong golden one that looks like a SC1 carrier as an event spawned construction ship.

I'm not sure if it does, but you could look it over

@Sunconure11 Depends weather or not NSC2 adds new classes for menacing ship and weather or not they remodel the existing models or not. It can be either way. If it ends up being incompatible I can muster together a quick compatibility patch so that it works.

@Space_Void Yeah, these ships have been here since the very beginning of the game. Still can't fathom why no one has made them available for player use until now.

@OP I have seen these ships ingame before but its was years ago in older versions of Stellaris, back when they still had tiles for pops.

@sunconure11
Unless NSC2 makes changes to menacing ship types, I would imagine that it doesn't.

Is this compatible with NSC2?

@nater909 The corvette model can be found in 4 different instances. It will appear in the fleet of the Sentinels as the "Starfang Class" as a warship. It will also appear as a science ship in an event where you capture a derelict ship in orbit of a planet. The third way it can appear is in a rare time-travel event where you get visitors from another galaxy. The last way that I know is during an unfathomably rare fleet event where you can recover an ancient fleet. It will appear as one of the 4 ships you get during that event.

The cruiser model seems to be completely abandoned. I distinctly recall seeing it as part of a rogue AI event where it protected a system, but that was years ago so its hard to recall all the details. There seems to be no way to acquire it in the vanilla game.

These ships are so incredible rare that most players will likely never have seen either one of them appear even once in all their playthroughs, but it does happen.

Where are these ships used in the base game?

You are welcome. And the images are loading normally in the Steam client. My problem is in the Firefox web browser (PC).

@paulo Thanks man! The issue with loading images seems to be an issue with the newer versions of Steam. Updating your Steam client to a BETA version fixes the issues for me at least.

This should have being a shipset available for player to use in vanilla Stellaris. Thanks for bringing these ships back.

What is happening?! Each and every time I click in a photo here in the Workshop to see larger image the page goes blank and I need to reload the blasted page! And that is happening in all pages.

Stand alone must have.

i agree with people these sexy objects need to be standalone as id play with them easily

I agree this needs a standalone version
