and 2 bomber, victory star destroyer and assault frigate spawn 4 fighter and 4
bombers, imperial star destroyers and mon calamarie cruisers spawn 6 fighter

of fighters, 2 a wings and 4 x wings, with one awing squadron and one xwing in
reserve. The victory star destroyer and imperial star destroyers spawn tie
advanced now instead of tie fighters.
-size of all ships including capitol ships is more realistic, fighters and
bombers too.

-Unit cap has been raised with 50 for space and 30 for land combat. (land unit
cap will vary a lot depending on planet)

coruscant, byss, corulag and geonosis

fighters 6 bombers, 4 corvettes, and 2 venators, at level 3 they get 6 fighters
6 bombers, 4 corvettes and 2 acclamators, at level 4 - 6 fighters 6 bombers, 4
corvettes, and 2 victory stardestroyers, and level 5 - 8 fighters 8 bombers, 4

squadron of fighter and 1 squadron of bombers in reserve.
-Space station garrison units classes corvette, frigate and capitol ships will

no sense to have an endless supply of frigates and corvettes, so once they die
that combat round you wont see them again until the next time your planetary
system is attacked).

regular tie fighters.(for Empire only of course)

sense to hold back your fighters in reserve and send them in piece meal so I
made it to where they all deploy at once except for one that you hold in
reserve.)

acclamator is available, level 3 victory star destroyer, level 4 is imperial

NEW GALACTIC CONQUEST MAP INCLUDED

-I redid the scenario called ¡§Empire AT WAR¡¨ under Galactic conquest

- I made a new Galactic conquest scenario under the name ¡§empire at war¡¨
This mod works great for rebel and empire story campaign, but I highly
encourage you to try the Galactic conquest mode and then select the empire at
war scenario, the new Galactic Conquest map: ¡§Empire At War¡¨ has all
planets in system plus a new planet Kamino and now you must completely wipe
your enemy off the Galactic map to win. Both factions start out with 5
systems each and most other planets will be contested by at least a sizeable
pirate force. PLEASE TAKE NOTE, The menu text says that you will win if the
emperor, mon mothma or the death star are killed, just ignore the intro message
it wont happen, actually you have to wipe out the enemy completely to win. Also
ignore the fact it says only 35 planets, there are actually 44.(I will try to
change this incorrect message in the next version) Added to the number of
planets that can build capitol ships and added a few new trade routes. The
difficulty should be set to medium if you want to have a lot of epic battles.
Made a change in 1.1 to hoth and naboo, you can now build 8 land structures on
both of these worlds.


*********Version 1.32 changes*********

-ACCURATELY SCALED SHIPS!!! - all ships (including venator) Noticably resized
to be more historicaly accurate as close as possible to canon but still
maintain the best possible level of gameplay this includes fighters. I used the
Imperial star destroyer as a starting point and scaled all space units
accurately in relation to that ship. the end result is in a much more accurate
depiction of all space craft. noteable exeptions are the tartan cruiser. the
tartan cruiser had to remain the same, since changing it would make it the size
almost as an acclamator. according to the wookiepedia, tartans are 500 meters
long, an acclamator is 600 meters long. I encourage people to check the size of
the ships on screen and measure them, then let me know if any of them are off
measurment.

-TIE FIGHTER G/T!!! - added a TIE Fighter G/T. It is a ground fighter that
comes in a squad of 3 and good at eliminating infantry. It has a lighter canon
that isnt very effective against vehicles or buildings. Inferior to rebel
airspeeders which now come in a squad of 4.

- swamp speeders and pod walkers have a 30% chance of hitting air targets

-Scout walkers, T2B¡¦s, can see a bit further, shoot faster and have a little
more range than before. (to make them better anti infantry).

-Pirate airskiffs and podwalkers are now buildable if you have a cantina on
your planet for both imperial and rebel forces. (made airskiffs and pod
walkers a very small bit tougher).

-rebel T4B's now have better sight, range, firepower and come in a squad of 4,


-rebel airpeeders now come in a squadron of 4 (used to be 3 per squadron)

-advance heavy factories now spawn a garison of 1 At-At instead of a hover tank
for imperials.

-heavy factories now spawn a garrison of M-1 hover tanks for imperials

-Fighters are much smaller than before, additionaly this greatly improved game
performance (ie frames per second).

-made Nebulon B frigates cheaper, made them with less health and shields. (when
you see it rescaled with other units it will make perfect sense, trust me)

-put a foot note at the end of every frigat, corvette and capitol ship
description telling how many population points it uses. All fighters that ARE
NOT part of a ships complement will take up one population point.

-Incorporated Aves custom map in galactic conquest, called AVES: THE CONFLICT
BEGINS, there Is still my custom map called ABSOLUTE: ANNIHILATION. they are
both great maps and like aves says in his read me notes, its recommended you
play on medium or hard for the best gameplay on these maps. for ABSOLUTE:
ANNIHILATION ignore the what the intro says about mon mothma, emperor dying,
death star destruction to win. You acctually have to wipe your opponent off the
map completely to win. also added an extra planet called kamino for a total of
44 worlds (not the 35 it says in the intro)

-special thanks to AVES for beta testing and contributing this custom map.

*********Version 1.4 changes*********

-Added a Anti-Air T2-Bcompany (available in tech level 3) to counteract the Tie
Fighter G/T squadrons.

-Tie Fighter G/T (ground version) squadron is now available in tech level 4,
does a little more damage but is still vastly inferior to rebel airspeeder.

-Gave the AT-AT A health bonus of 10% and made it shoot a 10% faster to offset
the T4-B bonus. (the T4-B bonus in version 1.32 was intended to make T4-b
dominate other land units but still be inferior to the AT-AT, so I had to bring
up the AT-AT a bit)

-T2B¡¦s now come in companies of 6 tanks instead of 5 and have a very small
increase in range and rate of fire. (much better against infantry now.

-Rebel Star fighters (awings and xwings) no have the hunt ability, so you
don¡¦t have to micromanage them and keep telling them to attack, now when you
hit the hunt button they will automatically seek out hostile fighters or
bombers and engage them.

-A-wings have been rebalanced to have 6 fighters in a squadron and raised the
rate of fire to make it more of a threat to the tie advanced fighter, the tie
advance is still the best fighter in this mod for you imp lovers ļ

-pirate plex soldiers and podwalkers have a small chance to hit and will now
shoot at passing enemy aircraft.


*********Version 1.41 changes*********

-Virago fighter (need a cantina, a level 5 spacestation and be at tech level 4
to build.This fighter Is expensive but in a squadron of 12 they dominate most
oppostition. Watch out for corvettes and harmonic bombs ļ

-speaking of harmonic bombs, Millenium falcon now has harmonic bombs in
addition to the invincibility ability.

-boba fett now has the invincibility ability that the millennium falcon has in
addition to his already harmonic bombs.

-NEW Mon Calamari MC80A Cruiser: 10% more health than regular moncalamari
cruiser, also It looks more like the defiant than the MC80 (original cruiser).
So you now you have more choices as the rebels as to what to build. It¡¦s
basically a properly scaled version of home one. Supposedly there were smaller
ships similar to home one built by the mon calamari so I decided to give you
guys the ability to build em. Enjoy ļ
