Enemy Fleet Approaching image - Empire at War Expanded: Thrawn's Revenge mod for Star Wars: Empire at War: Forces of Corruption
Thrawn's Revenge is a large-scale mod for Empire at War: Forces of Corruption. It includes the events of the Galactic Civil War after Palpatine's death at Endor, up until the signing of the Pellaeon-Gavrisom treaty. If you own the Steam version of EaW, you will have to complete extra steps to run the mod after installation. Please see the manual for these steps.
In 2.1 and some other previous versions, there was an issue with how the AI judged distances to planets, resulting in their fleets arriving as multiple sets of 1-3 ships. This was fixed in the 2.2 demo, but for anyone missed that, just reconfirming that it is in fact fixed, and real attacks are coming your way. We still want to do some work on what the AI considers for fleet compositions, though.
I always genuinely thought that ships arriving in groups meant that the attack had multiple waves.
But now it's ******* terrifying considering they combine all those waves into one attack. I can see it now, three executors backed with 50 ISD 1s 35 ISD 2s and a massive amount of frigates.
Yep. It's a good thing the hypervelocity gun is a thing otherwise we'd be royally screwed.
