Description
Ysane Isard, former director of Imperial intelligence. Collaborated with the rebels in the prelude to the battle over the sanctuary moon, in order to stage a coop on Coruscant. Having gathered a loyal force based on Thyferra, Isard prepared for the storm of Coruscant. An Imperial double agent revealed Isard's battle line to the Emperor, who, after the battle of Endor, directed his new apprentice Luke Skywalker to strike at Thyferra...
directed his new apprentice Luke Skywalker to strike at Thyferra...
I just hope that this doesn't mean that in the mod timeline Vader was killed
Nope. Vader is still with the Empire, in a bitter contest with his son, the same hungar for the Imperial throne, the hunger with which his son raves as well. The Emperor, in turn, uses these two factors as well as his own manipulative power, to keep his apprentices in check, in a sort of Imperial triumvirate.
well i have to say that it sounds awesome!!! ive always had thoughts on how that might have worked out lol. and it seems your are running with the idea!! very interesting ;) cant wait to play this mod ^_^
Thanks man. It was all kind of weird, I was kind of confused by how it came to be historically that the Rebels and Consortium somehow got replaced by Black Sun and Mandalorians, so we sat down and made this whole thing up. You'll see the finer details later, I'm sure we'll come around to making a newspost here on moddb specifying.
Interesting...are you thinking of making campaigns? This could be a twist in the imperial campaign. Desiding who overthrows the Emperor Vader or Luke.
We've considered it, but making a campaign would take quite a bit of scripting work. We've currently added new GCs and may make mini-campaigns in the future.
We're currently working on a V0.5 openbeta, where there will be no campaign, there will be a few decent GCs. For a V1.0 I'm fixed on making more elaborate, as far as coding goes GCs. In fact for for all three factions, even possibly one of the minor factions and at least one story-driven campaign. The decisions haven't been formally made yet, but as far as the Mandalorians go, which is where my responsibilities lie, I don't care if I have to code the thing myself :)
Well if you need any help with the story for a possible campaign feel free to call me. I will gladly help out. Keep up the good work
We currently need a skinner, are you any good with that? Our main skinner is in college, I believe, and he's not gonna be able to sufficiently help us for a good few months, which could hold back the mod release for some time.
Skinning?....never tried it...As far as i know all i could do for the mod is help with campaign story...maybe help with a few posters and trailers.
Well... we could use a poster or two... I'll talk to the mod group.
