Another Star Wars mod idea......

[Keba]

Bwain has a point. The other mod died precisely because the game is slighlty limiting for a SF space opera (that and the team was a bit small).

Also, the Clone Wars, as entertaining as they are, might be just a bit limiting in addition to the limitations of the game. Perhaps you should consider placing the game in the period of the Sith wars and make the game more Jedi oriented. Especially with Empire at War coming out in fall, it would give it an original setting.

Oh, and if you continue with the Clone Wars idea, ditch the Gungans, they would be rated as rebels.

bwain has a piont yes , but "closed formation did you saY? you can set the formations on hord ...or else i have other tings what can help formation is not the problem.

[Bwian]

I was not saying it couldn't be done... but that the mod-team MUST focus on coming up with solutions these sorts of problems before they stand a chance. Using solely a Horde is a solution, but it does bring it's own limitations.

Before you get too far into unit planning etc. it is always worth thinking through what the restrictions are and how you plan to overcome them. If I have got you thinking about this, then I have done my bit to help

I did. Some 5,000 years before the battle of Yavin. The Golden Age of the Sith is relatively ignored and the invasion of Naga Sadow is only basically explained. It would give more artistic liberty in designing things (a lot more Jedi at that time, too).

For when they enter close combat, it isn't too far fetched to say they may have carried some sort of knife/machete

Hi,
I would like to help as a researcher. I have many starwars books including one which deals specifically with armies.

I could provide you (within the next 2 hours) with a list of ideas for the entire army range
