Playing Galactic Conquest as the rebels on the mini-mod, whenever I'd attack an Imperial base, the Imperials would only attack when in range, they would act totally defensive, and from all the evidence, they never acted offensively. They'd just sit there, everything they would start with would still be there.

The Imperials never moved their fleets, or did anything.

On the contrast, the pirates actually acted more aggressively when I encountered them, like normal.

I haven't tried it the other way around yet, to see if the rebels acted the same way.

The difficulty I played on was Medium I'm pretty sure.

Oh yeah and then theres the fact that when I double-click the shortcut to start the mod, it just umm starts up the FOC process yet it kinda never starts, and from Process Manager it just seems to be starting in an endless cycle, though I found out sorta by accident in an attempt to stop it without having to restart my computer that taking the swfoc.exe file out of the folder during this "cycle" the game starts...

This is probably a problem only on my end, not sure how to explain it.

I hope I've fixed this, but let me know with the new version.

The AI? You have a new version? Well I'll go check it out and download it then. And I found out it happened the other way around too with the rebels, just as I suspected.

Oh and what else...well it seems that heros (the ones I've noticed specifically were Han Solo and Wedge and I believe Mara Jade) tend to kinda act weird when in groups of non-hero units, like they fly faster, but then stop dead in their tracks for the rest to catch up, then start flying again, but then stop dead again to let the non-heroes catch up. It looks awkward.

I think in Vanilla EaW that happens too, but fighters just usually tend to zoom around the ships their waiting.

otherwise they would end up being slaughtered by an enemy's corvettes, leaving one's bigger ships undefended
