The Galactic Forge!

Ok were not yet into the Beta Stage however I want to talk about some of the possibility.
I am Currently open for suggestion any requests you might have Post them here. Any ideas you have Post them here,
Any advice yes you guessed it! post it here.

This has consumed a year of my life but its fast approaching the flawless transition from fantasy to science fiction.
The world is a original design I have been working out for the passed 6 years through pen and paper role playing.

The story behind the mod would be the colonization of sigma 6 a melting pot planet mined for its resources.

I have implemented a few features some may find desirable such as.
Over 100 species of dogs with deferent pop rates.
Roaming bandits with over 15 variants.
New flavors nothing has went untouched.
All new metals creatures and weapons nothing is the same.
Currently lasers are set for blunt damage to set them apart from UHF ammo.
Over 8 species all living and thriving in one Fortress thanks to DNA Swapping technologies.
Completely structured and redone languages.
Possible themed fortresses such as Drug plantations, Poacher camps, Scavenger Facilities, Ect.
Robot constructing balanced and ready to ship.
Individual alien species civilizations (make friends with the Tauruns)
Over 500 random armors hats coats boots gloves pants and shields to customize your characters with.
Speech of NPCs now have a Delightful Sci Fi twist.
A catchy space opera theme playing soothingly in the background along with Maxims exodus a classical opening. 

Species
Sol (Human) a genetic mapping of 7 races the human would be the base of most civilizations due to its genetic diversity.
Taurun (Metal Munchers) 8'0 on average hight with large neon scales they communicate through a series of clicking there massive scales.
Reticuli (Gray) not what you would expect from the Grays, Tall Cybernetic enhanced worriers. the Raticuli devoted to Bio technology. (Great Doctors)
JAX (Robot) A perfect work force they never sleep and dont need to eat or drink. however this is complicated tech shake it around too much and it stops working.
Aquarii (Aquarius system) Brutal Berserkers the Aquarii dont tire or discourage easily making them excellent laborers however short tempered and brutal.
Gliece (Little green men) there small and sleek these squishy scientists live by a code 'why train a solder when a scientist can build a thousand'
Centurion (Alpha Centarii) the Galactic defense force suited in full body armor rely on these loyal aliens to fill out your military.
Eridoni (Intergalactic Assassins) Eridoni Live to fast and die young there lives consist of training from birth until death (fast with numbing toxic stingers)
Omicron (Big brains Frail body) the best engineers in the galaxy however due to there home worlds unique atmosphere they require breathing masks (remove mask for instant death)
Arietion (Aquatic Humanoid) these peaceful people have some of the greatest artistic abilities in the galaxy. use these aliens for underwater tasks.

If you wish to help me with anything simply post below you will get a credit in the final product once complete.
Any questions post below.

Wow, why are there so many dogs? I like dogs, but you must really, really like dogs.

[DizzyCrash]

oh? Im more of a cat person but in DF cats just... well... they bother me.
Leaving dead rat bodies all over my fortress...

anyway this mod will be complete in a few more days... just... a few more all nighters!

[DizzyCrash]

Im currently working on new weapons any suggestions?

[Deviled]

I'm assuming you have light sabers.

[DizzyCrash]

? light sabres? no this is all original work.
We do infact have sords however laster tipped but not made of light.

[Max White]

How's your nobles system looking? Have you got all the cool space admins? Like fleet commanders and such... Also, have you changed the job names so that they are more fitting?

[DizzyCrash]

lol of course that was like one of the first thing i did.

[inEQUALITY]

It'll be interesting to see how you handle materials, vegetation, etc. Could make or break this mod. Let me know how this goes; even my high-set, bloated goals for Saecular aren't quite this crazy dorfy. (In reference to going scifi, something hard to do. Even Wasteland, bordering on sci-fi, is far from perfect)

[DizzyCrash]

its all Taken care of however i do need someone to advertise for me not to sure i have the corisma to hype somthing.

however the mod is nearing completion most Jewls are now Power Crystals and just about everything has been altered all alien Vegetation on Sigma 6 is unique.

[Max White]

How many ranged weapons do you have? And is the ammo made from power crystals?

[DizzyCrash]

well we have all the basics you would expect from both Human and alien weapons each with unique ammo.

3 Plasma
4 Laser
5 Bullet
and a few misc weapons. Including makeshift grenades made from things you find in adventure mode and for some alien Cultural Badassnes Swords Chainsaws Bionic Arms Psionics throwing weapons and a many unique shields such as blocking swords bubble shields Reflector ristbands.

Metals have unique names to compliment the tools they are made with so many of the time you will have, Photon armor or Junk armor from low grade metals.

[Max White]

No ion blasters? Aww, I always liked the three teir laser < ion < plasma combo.

Any notible adventure mode reactions, now that you mention it? Something like "Search for scraps" that had a 2% chance of giving scrap metal would be enough to trick somebody into looking around all over the place for components, assuming they didn't check out the raws.

[DizzyCrash]

lol well im hoping people stay away from the raws it would spoil alot of my little secrets.
as far as I know nobody else has implemented Roaming raiders.
random monster encounters with Intelligent species.

and Weapons are only half done so now that you reminded me I need Ion and Gauss weaponry.

[Max White]

as far as I know nobody else has implemented Roaming raiders.

You do, of corse realise, that after reading that I need to take a peek at your raws to see what and how. Also, technically, ion and gause are the same thing, ion and plasma are also very similar. BUT this is geek sci fi, nobody realy cares, gauss sounds cool enough to be it's own thing. Its like saying I'm going to hit you with my photon blaster. In real life, that implys shine a flash light on you, but for finctional means its a weapon of uber destruction.
