This has not been a good year for many of us. We've seen a pandemic, civil disorder and so much more. My hope is that this update can provide you all with a little excitement and joy.
Please let me know what you guys think of the new content in the comment section below. I can't wait to hear your thoughts.

Hades Nexus: Obelisk of Karza
Spoiler:
Show
Another dream of mine has been to turn the fetch quests from ME3's vanilla release into mini-missions, and the Obelisk of Karza is the first of these I've chosen to tackle. Travel to the Hades Nexus cluster and explore an abandoned archaeological dig site in Spectre's new non-combat mission.
New Enemy - Reaper Tyrant
Spoiler:
Show
Enemy archetype modding is in its infancy, so any new enemy must be based on an existing one. Therefore, the Tyrant is based on the Cerberus Guardian, but has been overhaul significantly to include Armour, Barriers, a flamethrower, Reaper sound effects, a size increase in more. This enemy is particularly dangerous, so keep your distance from this monstrosity!
The Tyrant is based on official concept art, and is an elcor husk form that can be encountered in the following missions:
- Priority: Thessia
- Priority: Horizon
- Priority: Earth
My thanks go to Mellin for his incredible work on the model.

The Geth have received a new ally in the form of a sniper called a Geth Ghost. This can be encountered on the following missions:

Enemy Overhauls
Spoiler:
Show
Enemies have been edited across the entire game to bring Mass Effect 3 a step closer to ME1/2. Cerberus Assault Troopers, Centurions and Guardians have received a visual overhaul to use canon-accurate armour from ME2, and have been joined by Scientists, C-SEC Traitors, and a number of dangerous special agents.
The Reapers have not only been joined by the aforementioned Reaper Tyrant but also the Abomination.

ME2 Reaper Overhauls
Spoiler:

The Reapers have been given an overhaul so that their appearance more closely matches the end video of Mass Effect 2. This is an ongoing project, but these can be witnessed in the Spectre - Lore submod on the following missions:
- Prologue: Earth
- Priority: Palaven
- Priority: Thessia

Uncharted World

Journey to the mysterious planet of Ploba and discover its secrets, and explore deep space in the Titan Nebula to discover what lies hidden on a rogue planet.
An Evolving Galaxy
Spoiler:
Show
In line with Kinkojiro's EGM edits, Spectre's galaxy map is beginning to evolve as you play the game. Over half of the clusters now have planet descriptions which change after the Reapers invade or based upon choices you made in Mass Effect 1 and 2.
