Goodies bag 1: Rebel U-wing, Imperial Escort Carrier, Zann Consortium Hammerhead image - Empire At War Remake: Galactic Civil War mod for Star Wars: Empire at War: Forces of Corruption
This mod catapults Empire at War into 2077. It maintains the game's design philosophy, while adding new units, better graphics, and deeper gameplay.
The first goodie bag of units:
The U-wing is in short supply, being the final product Incom designed before the Empire nationalized it, and comes in squadrons of 4. it is a speedy, tanky, troop transport armed with two laser cannons and an internal weapon mount. Two U-wings come equipped with a burst laser cannon, the other two with a burst light ion cannon. It is mostly effective against light and slow targets, when interceptors of heavy duty starfighters show up you best hit the s-foils and run. Credit: ArvisTaljik for the model and texture.
The Imperial Escort Carrier is a dedicated carrier, that unlike the Gladiator can't be used in frontline operations or even as backup firesupport. It is armed very lightly, with two sideways medium lasers and a rear facing missile launcher. An excellent ship for running away, it also has the power to engines ability and a healing pulse for starfighters. The healing pulse won't help the tier one garrison much. (TIE Fighter 2(6), TIE Bomber 2(4), TIE Scout 1(0))
A far more expensive version is available with more advanced starfighters (TIE Hunter 2(6), TIE Interdictor 2(4), Elite TIE Defenders 1(0)). Credit: Gowron AKA Gorkon for the model and texture.
There is no good design the expert engineers and scientists at the Zann Consortium can't make better, and when it comes to the succesful but ancient Hammerhead-class this is doubly true. A gunplatform by heart, the Headache-class starfrigate has been modified with 33% stronger shields, and a complete refit of the main batteries with 5 heavy mass drivers and one flak cannon. The original ship was good in the fire-support role, but this one is even better. Credit: Warb_Null for the model and texture, edited by Niko.

It kinda gets buried under the descriptions, so here's the credits:

Escort Carrier: Gowron AKA Gorkon for the model and texture, rigging by me.
Warb_Null for the model and texture, colour variant Niko, rigging by me.
so is this a free release pack ?
No, the goodie bags are for the factions.
'Headache-class'?
That alone makes me want to spam them.
They're pretty expensive to be spamming them, but they're great support ships.
For the Escort Carriers, will there be a icon difference for the different fighter type?(i.e. ADV for the advanced fighter types carried) In other mods I have seen this difference for the unit build icon.
so what exactly is a "goodies bag". Will this be included in a future update?
