[MOD] RealSins MOD For Rebellion [v1.2 Updated, Compatible Rebellion v1.04]

Okay, after 4 years, I bring this post back again, Now i make The Realsins MOD up to Rebellion.

As before, this MOD tried to make the game more strategy and funny, but with a small size.

Some Tips with this MOD:

1. With some lucky explorer, your starbase can jump like VasariRebel's !!!

2. Control the ship during the battle, Weakness may defeat stronger !!!

3. Capture some pirate ships and put it in use, you can make a directly jump like Vasari's Phasegate.

4. All 3 races may boarding (through different way to get the boarding ship) and acquried other race's orbitcannon and can FIRE it !!!

5. Don't blow those disguised tradeship when your ship is damaged.

6. Wait for you to discover.

Updated v1.2

V1.2 Changed Log :

1. Now the Advent and Vasari both have an second OrbitCannon Shell, Like TEC in v0.9-v1.1.

    shield ignore ability.

    II). Vasari's just split to damage moduler and damage ships, Also give friendly hull repair buff.

    weapon, slow down enemy weapons, ability use, reduce damage output; and enhanced friendly's.

    AND! Can confuse lowlife like vasari, maybe jioned your army.

2. Upgrade Vasari's Resource Extractor, can have wave weapons and phase missiles, just research

    valid extractor upgrade.

    Pirate medium frigate, now have 3 laser banks and BVR planet bomb ability which like old realsins

    mod. Pirate heavy frigate have boarding ability now, be aware of them. 

4. Now when Pirate new colony stabled, them will use beacon to call a garrison into that orbit, and

    got chance to have a Titan.

5. Pirate Captialship modifed with 2 big laser gun and 50% bigger than TEC's transport. Also the

    boarding ability is much stronger so can capture Captialships.

6. The valid boarding ability now shows boarded during the boarding time, just make you know if it's

    working.

Update  2012. 08. 28

===================================================================

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

BELOW ARE ALL OLD DESCRIPTION ABOUT 4 YEARS AGO.

Someone still want to make a try is OK, But I don't make Update.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Here is the story where this "TerranRepublic" came from[I'm not good at write stories, Don't blame me if you don't like the story. ]

Many many years ago, when the Trade Emergency Coalition founded, It was just a finance organization called "Trade Assist League", which united traders to face pirates and unknow risks.

The Terran Republic allowed this organization built it's armed forces to reduce the loss of human lifes and spaceships.

At the first two decades, everything seems fine, Until A.D.2752, leaders of TAL prepare their subversive activities secretly, and assassinate several senators who got wind of their conspiracy.

In the year A.D.2754, The TAL decleared separate with all colonies under it's control, and renamed TEC which known today.

Although the Terran Republic only control the planet earth, the public still has strong army, and even succefully reoccupied seven colonies in the year A.D.2755.

In the year A.D.2756, TEC contact with the Advent for first time and soon made a  huge deal of bought their shield technology.

With this advanced tech, TEC occupied all the colonies within 2 months and push forward to earth.

In this conjuncture, Terran Republic layed tremendous mines in solar system while start built the biggest spaceship in human history.

The mines can't stop the TEC too long, After 5 months, Feb.7.2757, TEC began attack planet erath. The biggest spaceship - "MotherEarth" still loading equipment at that moment. Many people sacrifice their lifes to cover MotherEarth leaving which carried over 120'000'000 people and also carried democracy and freedom.
