needs update

Some people are heroes and work hard building billions of $$ in hardware to save the universe. I saved the universe by installing this MOD. I'm an adult and I didn't have time for that.

Why on earth anyone needs this since pretty much every faction stomps and steamroll Xenon all the time.

Hey dear modder, how hard would it be to release a mod like this, except for Xenon stations. I can melt a Xenon destroyer in seconds (no mod), but with the same firepower it takes forever to destroy a Xenon station. A 50% (or even 75%) nerf feels about right.

@Daybreaker it works, been trying to punch through a K9's shields all evening and now it's space dust...

As of patch 6.20 this no longer seems to work.

The values on this are half vanilla. VRO increases vanilla values so this actually heavily nerfs xenon in VRO. Think I may have to make an edited version to align better with VRO.

i hope it works too. I am more trader then fighter and when i need more fights i only must deabo the mod or ?

Still working?

I used this mod together with the one called Xenon Outcasts, dramatically improived the factions ability to get agrip on the sectors. I removed this one after I saw that alot of xen sectrs was taken. Massive thanks for a much needed mod.

@cetegus, it works with VRO, it was intended for it in the first place.
But be aware the Xenons will now be really easy to destroy.

A VRO version of this would be totally lovely indeed! :-)

can you make a VRO Version too,
compatible isn't the right word to describe this balance.
its more like they got nerved by 90% lol.

it is necessary to make not -50% of the shields and the hull, but a minus to the damage from cannons and turrets. This is very strange and stupid, because their weapons are based on commonwealth technologies, the same blasters and gamma guns, but for some reason their damage is one and a half, or even twice as high

Now if their *stations* were -50% hp, that would be great! Save a lot of dead time in play throughs

I'd love a mod that simply adjusted the resource values the Xenon use for ship building. 50% shield/hull nerf isn't needed; +50% construction costs might be a better way to go

The problem with the xenon is not the life points. But your absolutely overpowered graviton guns.
But can Anyone update the mod or maybe remake it with better parameters?
I also think that 50% is too much of a nerf.
25% would be better for balance

please update

Is it possible to get a 25% nerf? 50% is kinda OP after a little while and that is with increased xenon fleet sizes to try to compensate. Or how would you edit the file to make it 25 over 50?

wenns halt einfach mal ne mod gäbe der wie auch immer das xenon I aus dem spiel verbannt..... 4. spielneustart und knapp 40std spielzeit.... die xenon reiten an 4 fronten manchmal sogar mit bis zu 3 I schiffen pro welle ein und vernichten langsam aber stetig alle völker.... wenn man bis zu diesem zeitpunkt nicht nen paar zb asgards als ''torwächter'' hat, kann man nur demoralisiert zuschauen -_- heyyy modentwickler :)..... kann man nich irgendwiedas I ausradieren....oder die produktion dieser dinger halt kaputt machen etc ???? das wäre mal nen gefallen für alle genervten spieler.... die greifen ja sonst zumindest bei mir im vorgeschrittenen spiel arg genug an mit k und V etc....

Thank your for MOD.
50 % is ok. Xenon nerfen nur.

I think 50% is a bit too much, so I changed the values in the .dat file myself. Hopefully this is enough to not nerf them all that much but still make them a threat.

Tired of being stuck in Hatkivahs

You can offer 3 different versions for the xenon nerve:

1x 5%,
1x 10% and
1x 15%

Thanks in advance.

Du kannst ja 3 verschiedene Versionen für den Xenon-Nerv anbieten:

1x 5%,
1x 10% und
1x 15%

Danke schon einmal im voraus.

First of all, thank you very much for your mod.

*** -> I would like a lighter version with 15% or a maximum of 25% weaker instead of 50% for the xenon. <- ***

With me (no! VRO) the Xenon have nothing to laugh about,
the peoples almost overrun the Xenon and quickly captured most of its sectors.
With 50% weakness in the vanilla, the xenon are unfortunately no longer a real danger to the colonies.
*** -> Alo please lighter version with -> 15% or a maximum of 25% weaker instead of 50% for the xenon. <- ***
:(

Erst einmal Vielen Dank für dein Mod.

*** -> Ich hätte gern eine leichtere Version mit 15% oder maximal 25% schwächer statt 50% für die Xenon. <- ***

Bei mir (kein! VRO) haben die Xenon nix zu lachen,
die Völker haben die Xenon fast überrannt und deren meisten Sektoren schnell eingenommen.
Die Xenon sind bei 50% Schwäche in der Vanille leider keine echte Gefahr mehr für die Völker.
*** -> Alo bitte bitte leichtere Version mit -> 15% oder maximal 25% schwächer statt 50% für die Xenon. <- ***

Hi, Would it be possible to make a lighter version of this like 25% weaker instead of 50%?

Mod Request,
more xenon ships
bigger xenon fleets

In the first version of my mod only the K & I were changed, in this version all Xenon ships are nerfed.

I didn't test it with VRO, but it should overwrite VRO's value's.

Though, if I can make a suggestion, in the previous version of the game (I'm playing vanilla with 4.0), the I died really quick compared to the other capitals. (with VRO)

So I don't know if it's because only the I had is health actually modified or if there was an error in their nerf.

@jcewazhere, I will look into a version for Kha'ak, thanks for using my mod.

@Iratus, when I make a new version I will add one with buff.

@lnomsim, that is exactly the reason for this mod ;) , thanks!

@Kackstifter & Wilsonatron, then don't use my mod...

The xenon are not that powerfull lol, if anything they need a Buff... lol

@ Kackstift[GER] Maybe in vanilla, but with VRo+Faction enhancer, the xenon difficulty is just plain stupid.
It takes a small fleet to kill a single K, and they send waves after waves after waves of capitals, while the AI factions are barely managing to even build a fleet in the first time.

I had a wave completely levelling Family TKr, they arrived with 2 I and 5 K, the stations in the sectors were destroyed as butter in the sun.

I am around 50 hours in this playthrough and still haven't been able to build either a decent commercial fleet, a military one, or industrial stations because xenons wreak them before they begin to bring in money.

Most of the money I have right now comes from inventory selling...

To confirm - Running with Faction Enhancer + VRO - Class I was brought down significantly (Hull: 2,650K to 170K) After running SETA overnight on a new save Hatkivahs was not overrun!

Now just waiting on the 150% buffs

... sad... x4 is really not difficult.. btw Terran XL battleship can oneshot anything ..

Thanks, much needed, in my current playthrough, they are relentless and nobody is building fleets to defend their sectors, and since they completely anihinlate my merchant fleets, I can't build one either.

I will finally be able to put an end to frustration simulator.

Neat, thanks for making it.
Is there a version for the Kha'ak? They're more of an annoyance in my current game than the Xenon.
