Imperial Reign is a Star Wars total conversion to the critically acclaimed Company of Heroes and its expansions Opposing Fronts and Tales of Valor. Set in the Star Wars universe, Imperial Reign is about the Imperial occupancy of the Outer Rim worlds (i.e. Tatooine, Lok, Rori, etc) and the constant war as the Rebels fight to liberate the galaxy of tyranny. This conversion aims to bring a type of grittiness and intensity never before seen in a Star Wars game or mod. Company of Heroes engine is suited perfectly for this and serious Star Wars and RTS fans alike will undoubtedly have a blast.

Report RSS CoH: Imperial Reign - Update 04/22/12

Update 04/22/12: A faint transmission...hope from beyond?

Posted by on


Afaint transmission has been sent out! It would appear that there is signs of life from the Imperial Reign team! Yes fans, we have a new update for you! After a loooooong period of absence, we have something to show you. So, without further ado, to the update!

The update today is to focus on some of the new stuff we have worked on, and although it isn't much, it is something! To start, our 3d artist WelshManDan has been working on making the weapon models lower poly so that they meet the Company of Heroes standards. Here is a few shots of them:





Next, we have also worked on structures for the Imperial Army. You have already seen the HQ, but we also have the Academy and the Armor Corps Factory:


The Armor Corps Factory


The Imperial Academy

Lastly, we have set up the TIE Fighter to provide support for Imperial ground forces. As of right now, it flies ingame and has the classic engine noises, but we are working on having it fire the correct projectiles as seen in the movies. So, here it is in Worldbuilder:



As always, we need your help to complete the mod! We are looking for everything from coders to mappers to modellers and texturers. If you can help, we need you. We hope you enjoyed the update, and we look forwards to showing off more in the future!

Excellent stuff! I really hope to see the mod in a finished state. Are things finally looking up for the mod's production, or do you foresee there being another hiatus? I would help if I could, but I'm afraid I have nothing to offer.

We don't really know yet. We'll post a new job ad soon, spread the word a bit and see how it goes. Hopefully, people will now realize that this mod is not a lost cause and it's worth working on. We'll notify everyone as soon as we know more.
