Rebel Communications ship image - Star Wars Alliance Rebellion mod for Star Wars: Empire at War: Forces of Corruption
Alliance are a serie of different mods. On the Star Wars GC, you can play the civil war Empire vs Rebel era + Black Sun and soon the Republic and CIS.
This modified Nebulon B frigate as a communications ship can give orders to the friendly starships in the battle for attack or retreat. Yes, retreat, the units can jump to the lightspeed and you will see again them in your reinforce panel.
However, you can not retreat a unit too damaged. About where have I found this? I made it by myself with a new lua code but I saw some like this at a first place made by TAU for the SOTE mod. Just it was different because he added it as a ability for retreat the same unit with the ability and I have made it for retreat a group of units into a range around the ability is activated.
You can watch a video where you can see this new ability at action. Just the new Communications ship was not in the video because I recorded it two days ago.
About the attack orders, when this ability is activated, the different units as by example corvettes, they will attack to the closest fighters/bombers or other corvettes. Capital starships will attack other capital starships.
Thats one great feature, such ships will be "must have" in my fleets.
wow thats impressive
good work mastercoder xD
