Star Wars: Interregnum is an upcoming mod for Sins of a Solar Empire: Rebellion that builds off of the highly successful Enhanced 4X Mod. Fleeing the unknown terror that is chasing the Vasari, the factions of Sins of a Solar Empire stumble on a temporary wormhole that takes them to a galaxy far, far away. The sudden arrival of armadas with trillions of refugees and thousands of warships between the events of Episodes 5 & 6 forever alters the Star Wars universe and plunges the galaxy into an unprecedented period of chaos and violence. Begun, a new conflict has.
Did I ever mention that the Imperial Warlords will have some unique hero units? I'm not sure I did. Well, without further delay, here is Admiral Screed, a Cyborg who was a highly decorated officer in the Clone Wars and a supporter of Chancellor Palpatine. A down to earth and efficient officer, Screed fell on hard times before the Battle of Yavin after some unfortunate run ins with the Droids R2-D2 and C-3PO, and before Endor his career was largely ruined with him being in charge of only his Gladiator Star Destroyer, the Demolisher. However, with the new Warlords of the galaxy now desperately needing experienced commanders, perhaps fate is about to change for Admiral Screed.
That is a cool ship! I guess star destroyers really do come in all shapes and sizes :) those abilities look interesting too....
Screed gonna join Zinji?.
And that ship looks great :).
It is possible, as ironic as it sounds. Screed doesn't become a Warlord in the Interregnum timeline so Zsinj has no reason to kill him this time around. :p
nice~
each warlord get different heroes?
Sadly not, it was discussed in the comments of the previous screenshots if you want the reasons why.
Interesting, this is the first hero I've never heard of. I've heard of all the others previously, but this Admiral Screed looks to be the first hero you will likely research, much like the Galactic Empire's Captain Teren Rogriss.
Definitely looking forward to hearing who the other two heroes for the Imperial Warlords are.
Yes, Screed replaces Teren Rogriss, since it occurred to me Rogriss was always an Imperial loyalist and would likely not serve any warlords. He was one of the main antagonists in the old and not particularly good Droids TV show, but he's since got kind of an interesting back story and his flagship was always a Gladiator so he fit in well.
Yeah I did a bit of research into him after reading this post. Most of what I saw came from a badly animated cartoon, probably the Droid TV Show that you mentioned. I'll definitely enjoy using him considering his ship choice.
The Gladiator Star Destroyer is one of my favorite ships to use in the mod, and I feel is more useful than the similar Broadside Cruiser.
Yup that would be it, though Screed was honestly on of that shows better characters. And yes, sometimes my hero units are chosen just as much for the ships they've used as their own history (Rogriss for example usually commanded a Star Destroyer, but he once commanded an Interdictor in a joint operation with Han Solo to try and kill Zsinj).
And yes, the Gladiator is one of my favorites too, and actually that Droids TV show was its first appearance. The Broadside Cruiser is a specialized antistructure unit in this mod so its not really fair to compare it to the Gladiator, which is a general purpose combat vessel. :p
