Hey, just wanted to drop in and tell you that an idea for the Star Wars mod is simply a good idea; although I cannot stress the importance that it will be difficult to make. Hey, I'm no modder, but I've seen firsthand of what the engine was designed to do... visually.

Anyway, putting provinces as islands of planets and the sea as the universe, well... that sounds like a very hard thing to do; so what I can think of this mod is the ability to recreate a continent with varying degrees of terrains and unusually named provinces controlled by whomever you deem necessary to the greater good.

However, the storyline in Star Wars does not fit in the mold of rigid battle formation as the movies have shown that tactics are modern and conventional in spite of the ending movie that consisted of clone troopers marching into the ships. If I may, I would like to present you an idea of a Star Wars storyline that is a little off-base here, although does hold some credibility to Georgie-boy's SW history.

"The Republic has geared up for the clone wars, and yet have to begin their battles elsewhere against the factions who opposed the once glorious empire. The clones have marched into their ships and have landed on a planet called "X" (note: just to experiment). There were startup factions populating centralized areas and forced themselves to fight in the name of the Separatists. The Clones responded by marching to the areas and fighting in the name of the Republic itself. What turned out to be a grand battle resulted in problems for the sector."

Something like that, but ya know, there is a thread about a guy who described using hi-tech guns as the form of fighting, although he does point out with clarity that if you take away the hi-tech guns and replace them with energy swords or the like, it adds a certain element to the game.

As for me, I would like to see an entire continent filledi with wondrous landscapes and fighting battles in unsually named provinces against factions unknown... And don't get me wrong, I would love to see the mod in it's working state for RTW.

Keep up the work and we will utterly drool at the sight of the unit pictures.

See ya...
