Looking for specific mod please help

Looking for a mod or combination of mods which would allow me to play classic campaign using gunboats, cruisers, battleships. Some of the mods i know that has this ships doesnt allow to dock on some stations during campaign, but maybe there is a fix for that?

Id personally consider it a very bad idea to play the vanilla campaign in anything larger than usual choice of ships.
The inabilty to dock at all stations (which of course can be fixed) would be the smallest problem to solve here.
After having written 45 new story missions I can tell you by experience that capital ships act a bit strange in story scripts and thats exactly an issue that will cause lots of problems in the compaign.
Due to the dimension of cap ships specific triggers of the campain wont work correctly… you might get problems with fail timers or other times not activating correctly due to the speed differences.
You also will get problems with collisions in scripted scenes. You might have problems to pass through specific areas (e.g. asteroid fields if you are using ships that are too large).
It certainly would be interesting to see if you can fit your battleship into the nomads lair (you wont, coz of the size of the docking tubes).Id see roughly a hundred possible problems if you try to play with cap ships (some probably fixable… others more tricky).

hmm, well in that case i played crossfire which was nice with all the new editions (ship wise) in original story campaign + the crossfire part campaign was kinda fun only thing i hated was the insanely long distances on some missions, but to comeback on topi, if there isnt any campaign mods to play without any bug with gunboats and etc. maybe there is a a classic campaign with alot of new ships and weapons which can be used from the early levels basicly something similar to crossfire maybe?
