Known Public Modifications
Homeworld 2: Complex Mod - This mod is a huge overhaul skirmish mod that adds new units and new abilities to both Factions (Hiigarans and Vaygr).
Current version: 7.4.4

NOTE: I currently use Complex mod 7.4.4. I have not used the other mods so I will not provide opinions or recommendations. However, I do recommend the Complex mod for those who play Homeworld 2. (this mod will NOT work for past homeworld games and requires that Homeworld 2 be updated to v1.1).

Other mods on Strategy Informer:
Aera Superdreadnaught: Progenitor Ship Mod
Star Trek: Sacrifice of Angels
Path To Victory 0.0.3
Tactical Fleet Simulator 3G Mod v2.6.1
Slipstream: The Price of Freedom 2.5c
Starship Troopers/Starcraft/Leningen vs. Ants 0.3
Homeworld 2: The End of Times 0.01

SO YEAH
