Description
One more! The Ancients! (work still in progress, but fully operational and balanced)
I would like to thank all the people who made tutorials for CC.

Ancients: An old and long forgotten civilization with a vast amount of knowledge and power. Their goals are as mysterious as their origins.

Suport for unmapped lands2 and void wanderers!
To enable this tech on unmapped lands2 or void wanderers go to your cortex command folder, open unmappedlands2 / voidwanderers.rte, open the factions folder, then open Factions.cfg file with notepad and add the line: Ancients.rte
Done, that should work.

Stuff List:

Actors:
Mummy: Once the original bodies of the ancients, now reanimated corpses used for war and other mundane tasks.
Moon Warrior: A hybrid animal warrior devoted to the ancients cause. Despite the aging effects it's still very efficient in battle.
Stone Guardian: A heavy and tough unit made of stone. Best used for stationary defensive positions and to advance under heavy fire.
Ancient: One of the awakened ancients, ready to command your troops on the battlefield. It can move and fight on its own but don't let it die.

Weapons:
Light Wand: Small one-handed weapon capable of cast energy waves.
Wrath Gauntlet: A very powerfull one-handed close range weapon. Can also be used as a slow digger.
Wrath Gauntlet (Off-Hand): The off-hand version of the Wrath Gauntlet.
Nova Mace: Shoots powerful energy waves that burns everyone on its path.
Moon Staff: The moon staff shoots a round energie blade that return after some time.
Thunder Spear: Casts bolts of energy that randomly strikes the aimed direction.
Sun Spear: Charges an energy needle that pierces through the aimed direction.
Star Scepter: The might of a star in a single weapon! Can literally shoot tiny stars!
Quasar Scepter: The most powerful and feared weapon on the Ancient's arsenal. Can annihilate everything in front of it after a small charge time.

Tools:
Earth Mace: Used mainly for digging purposes, but can be a great close range weapon.

Bombs:
Storm Grenade: A powerful grenade that releases charged clouds and lightning.
Force Field: A device that generates a force field capable of slowing down almost any small object.

Crafts:
Obelisk: Ancients's rocket transport unit. It's fast and maneuverable but also very fragile.
Pyramid: A strange and armored dropship empowered by unknown forces. It's very safe and reliable.

If you liked this mod don't forget to check my other two factions, Hunters and Biohazard ;)

This really reminds me of an epic series called star-gate!

Its a pretty cool mod. Fun and seemingly pretty fairly balanced. Some of the wind noises they make can get really loud / annoying tho.

hahahaha yes, but sometimes I miss the friendly fire. It was fun to kill everything accidentally. It is good to have the option back :)

I just suddenly got the thought that the flailing arm is actually spinning a crank to charge up their lasers, like one of those wind up flashlights XD. or those laser muskets from fall out 4.
I never expect this to work with friendly fire and quite frankly cortex command is crazy and wonky enough that I never expect friendly fire to work on any level (out side explosives etc).
I've played CC way back when there was no option to turn off friendly fire and a lot of stuff didn't work, like a guy with a shield in front and a person with a heavier weapon behind or guards across from each other on either side of a drop in point. yeah FF feels too extreame with CC, I think the option is just there for old times sake.
