If you are a member of this mod, can demonstrate that it is being actively developed and will be able to keep this profile up to date with the latest news, images, videos and downloads, please contact us with all details and we will consider its re-activation.
The point of this mod is to add portions of the Star Wars Expanded Universe- the novels and games- to Star Wars Battlefront. First and foremost, the New Jedi Order.
In Star Wars, there are three main time periods.
1) Prequel. This includes Episode 1 to 3 and all novels that occur in between.
2) Classic. This includes Episodes 4 through 6 and all the novels in between and afterward- namely, the entire war with the Empire.
3) New Jedi Order. This includes the 19-book New Jedi Order series, which begins 25 years after Return of the Jedi, and deals with the Yuuzhan Vong invasion.
The New Jedi Order, or most specifically, the Yuuzhan Vong, to our knowledge, have not been included in any completed mods.
However, the Yuuzhan Vong are among the greatest villains ever seen in Star Wars. Not only that, but it's among the most realistic Star Wars book series ever written. Generally speaking, in Star Trek or Star Wars, there are character shields. The main characters almost always survive, and the bad guys die. For example, in the original trilogy. While Obi-wan and Yoda die, all the main good guys (Luke, Leia, Han, Chewie) survive every movie, while Jabba, Vader, Tarkin, and the Emperor are killed.
Not so in the New Jedi Order! Classic and expanded universe characters are killed, and this storyline has more suspense than any other series. You never know who is going to die next as you read, since the character shields are GONE. That's right, GONE.
Hard as it is to believe- even the original characters are at risk. Chewbacca DIED in the beginning of the invasion. Furthermore, DOZENS of major characters that have been introduced in the dozens of Star Wars novels are killed throughout the series, perhaps hundreds. Entire worlds are exterminated. Coruscant is smashed and remade into Yuuzhan'tar, all technology blasted from the face of the planet, the whole world terraformed. And there is yet another major character that is killed, who has been in the majority of the books as well, but I won't spoil who for those who haven't read it.
The New Jedi Order is among the best Star Wars has to offer in terms of the Expanded Universe, and this will be our first priority.
The Yuuzhan Vong are invaders from another galaxy. They hate technology, and everything they use is organic and genetically engineered- their ships, their armour, their weapons. And the worst part- they cannot be sensed with the Force. To the Jedi, they are nonexistent. Later in the series we discover why, but again, I'm not going to spoil it. More info on the Vong here:

For the initial release of the mod, we will be adding the Yuuzhan Vong to the game, to fight against the Galactic Alliance (combined forces of the Rebels [now the New Republic] and the Imperial Remnat [what is left of the Empire]). We will be modelling their organic ships and weapons, and adding their entire race into the game. And it'll be a heckuvalot of fun
We'll also include a couple maps to fight the Vong on.
In later releases we'll create and include more complex and cool maps (Possibly the Death Star...and a few surprises), and start adding in more Expanded Universe vehicles and vessels. Possibly the ability to fly capital ships!
The mod is going to be awesome...
