I just downloaded the Star Trek mod pack from http://www.sidgames.com/ac/ and found out that a lot of the so-called custom factions are only cosmetic remakes of the original files. Now on to the real point of this post. I have no idea how to make a new faction balenced and was hoping I could get some help, at least, modifying each factions most important stats. Sorry, in advance, for the length.

You're right, that is a pretty crappy FacPack. Cardassians as peacekeepers? Ugh.

Actually whatever idiot designed this made the Dominion the PK's White Cat. But as I used to watch DS9 fanatically I'll do this myself.

University - Caldonians (A minor species, but love research)

Gaians - Can't think of anyone.

Morganites - Ferengi

Hive - Dominion or Romulans (Think Tal Shiar)

Believers - Dominion

Peacekeepers - Federation

Spartans - Cardassians or Klingons


Tally Ho,
Lord Beselwick
