This mod catapults Empire at War into 2077. It maintains the game's design philosophy, while adding new units, better graphics, and deeper gameplay.
Some seasoning to give the coming (AI Only) Minor Factions some mostly random lore flavor.
Minor Heroes!

HA- I love the nod to OG EAW with Moff Kalast, as well as the fact that Krennic is probably so hated that he would only be able to secure a Venator as his flagship, plus the nod to Zaarin- Will he spawn TIE Defenders?
Not sure who Harkov or Sait are but I wouldn't be surprised if there was some lore behind them too.
All the characters here exist in the lore in some way even if most had no or crappy images or had very little information. Well other than Krennic who got brought from Canon and made to fit in the proper lore as a disgruntled director overlooked for Bevel and Despayre.
Harkov is an imperial defector from TIE Fighters early missions before Zaarin defects.
Sait is from Star Wars Galaxies and is a Captain who calls himself a Grand Admiral and he tried selling his ship and crew to the Black Sun before he was stopped or helped by the players (Depending on the faction)
Zaarin gets all the fighters (That are in the mod) that he was involved with in TIE Fighter. Those being Avenger, Defender, and Experimental.
"Careful not to choke on your flagship, Director Krennic"
ah yes using Isildur as Isolder's Icon
Nice
Hey wait a Minute
I see Darth Nihilus in the background
Why do you have isildur?
Isolder is a Prince of the Hapes Consortium. You bet your *** we'd take the name Isolder and use Isildur.

So its looking like a canon-legends mix with LOTR lumped in???
Krennic has been rebranded to fit Legends as some sad loser commander who wanted control of the DS construction but was denied for Despayre so he's throwing a kiddy fit. Everyone else is from Legends.
Prince Isolder is a name that deserves to be casually memed with using Prince and then King Isildur's face as an icon.
"Ay, Tone! We killin' these Rebel cocksuckas now or what?"
And I heard it in Paulie's voice too🤣🤣🤣
