Game Mods
- ARPIA2, World of an Agency
by Peter "Pace" Craddock and several members of ATMOS, the original Nova developers- Recommended by: StarSword
- Synopsis: A "quasi-TC" mod for Nova (best explained as an unofficial Expansion Pack) that adds new factions, ships, outfits, and a long new branching storyline revolving around the exploits of the Anti-Raider and Pirate Intelligence Agency.
- Pairing(s): Has a romance sideplot between the Player Character and another ARPIA agent.
- Comments: This is a remake and expansion of Pace's earlier ARPIA plug-in. The new ships are somewhat broken with respect to the original scenario, but then Nova was never exactly well-balanced to begin with (*cough* Polaris Raven *cough*). It's nevertheless quite fun to play. The website also contains a free PDF novelization and additional literature.
