Maybe a GC set right after Endor, it seems a little weird to me that the GCs jump from 18BBY to 9ABY (is that right?) The Rebelion would start with Endor and the planets that revolted afterwards such as Naboo. The victory contiton for the Rebelion would be to take Coruscant while the Empire would have to take and hold sevral key locations or kill certian heros such as Mon Mothma or Luke.

Just throwing it out there.

Also is there anyway, in Operation Shadowhand for Leia to convert Luke back? Like she does in The Dark Empire books/comic?

Yes more campaigns would be good. Once my new map is done I'll make some new campaigns. I think the GC is too... underpopulated for a proper Galactic Civil War. I'm fixing that now and my first map should be out soon. Only the Core though, but you get around 60 planets to play with in the Core alone.

[Phoenix Rising]

I'd like to add new campaigns, but I don't think I will be for v1.1, since that's already been pushed back as it is. Maybe v1.2? If we decide to go that direction.

[keraunos]

Since 1.1 gonna be perfect in terms of gameplay, that's what I'm going to focus on I'll probably do something around most important battles - preYavin? Hoth? post-Endor?

[SpardaSon21]

Bakura and the Ssi-Ruuvi would be a nice campaign. Yeah, all they really did was fight over Bakura, however we could go a different direction with an Imperial Fleet being in range of Bakura, and responding to the distress call. After all, Bakura was a semi-major producer of repulsorlifts so the Empire aiding them, especially against unknown aliens fits. And there would be an excuse for Luke to get ship upgrades now too.

Yeah, I know special Ssi-Ruuvi ships would need to be made, and since it is only one campaign, it ain't gonna happen.



Damn. Too bad this mod won't ever be Clone Wars era (Will there be a PR: Clone Wars?). Otherwise I'd suggest some campaigns from there. Hunting General Grievous in the Outer Rim, as well as a new Geonosis map with plains instead of canyons for that epic battle scene from Episode II. I don't know much about the Clone Wars, the prequel novels being crap. Except the Republic Commando ones. Mandalorians rock.

We need a Fest map! And Republic Commandos in black armor!

I don't know if Clone Wars will ever be done as an addition to PR. I believe that Phoenix Rising refers to the rise of the Rebellion to heading the mantle of the galaxy, or some such like that. It would probably be a separate mod.

There are always gonna be other mods with the Clone Wars era included anyway, and I'm sure a couple of the community peeps around here might be willing to make that era if you can convince them.

Yeah I know about Phoenix Rising not being a Clone Wars mod. I understand. However, with PR already the best mod for EaW/FoC, I can at least want the team to do a Clone Wars version. You don't see me wanting any other mod teams to do one do you? They would be crappy, with Clone War stuff being shoved in EaW. A PR Clone Wars mod will probably be the only mod to let me fulfill my wishes of massive armies of clones and droids duking it out with lots of heavy armor and really big guns.

A major plus would be if some of the Republic Commando characters got added in as heroes, like Delta and Omega Squads, and Kal Skirata, Bardan Jusik, and Etain Tur-Murkan. And the completely insane Nulls. That wouldn't stand a chance of happening anywhere else.

It shouldn't be too difficult to do. Add couple of starships, get rid of some more - and voila

[Pred the Penguin]

lolz... Make it now. XD


But the Clone Wars seem more about land battles than anything.
And land battles in EaW just suck.

But I here PR is gonna change that. *Hopeful*

I hope that too.

While we're not getting into the Clone Wars, there's really no reason why you couldn't make a campaign along one of those conflicts for the GCW. I mean, a campaign is, at the very least, just a collection of planets like the ones for different regions of the galaxy. You could take a "training simulator" perspective and just as easily replace the Republic with the Empire and the CIS with the Alliance if you wanted to do an Outer Rim Sieges map, for example.

[SpardaSon21]

Yes but it would need more ships and more custom heroes to be anywhere near the quality in the PR mod.

Pellaeon in the Leveler, the Cuy'Val Dar, Omega and Delta Squads.

Plus the Mandator, a Venator, Lucrehulk, and lots more that aren't in here.

I would love to see you do a proper Clone Wars mod Phoenix Rising. Would destroy anything else out there in terms in quality.

Clone Wars are already doable - we have some decent ships (Venators, Recuscant), with the exception of Lucrehulk. Phoenix, would you like to add it? In the beginning even I was against adding Lucrehulk, but both canon (Death Star novel) and balance (need for additional Rebel Dreadnought vs Supers) convinced me that Rebels really need it.

As for fighters for Clone Wars mod, I put gameplay > models, so - since we don't see any fighters, I would simply change xml and icon without changing models So you'd only need few ships...

[SpardaSon21]

Isn't there the ARC-170, the Eta-3, the Aethersprite, and some weird bomber (from Battlefront, which isn't the best but...)? Add in the LAAT/i and LAAT/c. The LAAT/i actually wasn't that bad of a heavy gunship. Had those composite beam turrets, missile launchers, and all those laser turrets. Plus it handled fairly well, and you have one nasty ship. I don't know about the LAAT/c for space, but I do know that AT-TE's were dependent on them for deployment.

[Tropical Bob]

I think you're thinking of the V-Wing from Battlefront, which isn't a bomber apparently?

We also have the Acclamator-class. The main problem would be acquiring all of the CIS ships. We basically need to fill their entire fleet assortment.

[SpardaSon21]

Yeah V-wing. Doesn't look anything like a V, that's what threw me off.

Isn't the Recusant a CIS ship?

But a lot of CIS ships are missing. Same with Republic (although not as much).

[Pred the Penguin]

Please don't even talk about Battlefront again. O_o

The mod already has a few Clone Wars units.

It's just the matter of adding a few more stuff for CIS.
They need to have more droids.


Lucrehulf for the Rebs? It looks ugly. 0_0

[Phoenix Rising]

Heh, I don't think I can devote another two years to a Clone Wars mod, not unless someone was willing to pay me to do it (/cough)... Promise it'll be better than the film of the same name .

[Kitkun]

Over two years, I think I could spare a dollar or two.

[Phoenix Rising]

I was trying to refer to the GL, heh .
