Planetary conquest mod

from Stardock Forums
A mod I'm working on as I work on the editor. The basis of the mod is that you're floating and figthing over a planet. It doesn't change anything beside the graphics but I thought it would be a nice change of scenery.

It's my first crack at the planet landscape, I'll have to make it much better I'm afraid but I had problems with scale. Anyhow, it's nice a nice demonstration of what's possible with galciv modding.

Well I was thinking of chaning the stars first. Making the floating platform or something. The ships would still fit since it's a battle high above the ground ^_^.

Do you have a theme for the mod?

If you got really ambitious, you could do some pretty interesting total conversions this way... like move the whole thing down to ground level and go civ-esque (cities instead of stars, military outposts for SBs, etc.), or a post-hollocaust struggle for world domination... even go fantasy or something really strange (star bases as floating citadels, ships as dragons, etc.).

You may not want to go to ground entierely, because that would make an CivIII essentially. I think this game is based off its run program, right? Sounds cool though.
