About this mod

A simple, clean fighter-, and cruiser-centric high-tech/midline faction,
focused around carrier combat, specialized weapons, and high mobility.
Adds 40+ ships and 70+ weapons, new {REDACTED} enemies, generous campaign content,
deeply inappropriate ship names, cheese-eating space magic, arcane in-jokes, and more.

Hardened Warning Beacon
Fight the Blade Breakers, an AI-enslaved faction with shadowy motives and unclear goals, designed around doing mobile-alpha-damage trickery right back to you - with interest. Blow up their ships, salvage their bases for loot, and steal their gear - their weapons are highly effective, and some of their AI-controlled drone ships can be used as auxiliaries in your own fleets. 
Blade Breakers spawn in a single fixed constellation to the galactic South, with optional procedural spawns that you can enable in the settings file. Look out for special, hardened warning beacons with unique intel icons.
