Freeworlds: Tides of War is a fan built Star Wars total conversion mod for Digital Anvil's Freelancer game that was released several years ago. When fans began to make mods for Freelancer, one of the many things people were keen on seeing was a Freelancer mod based on the Star Wars universe developed by George Lucas. Freeworlds and Tides of War were the answer to this outcry. The development team of both mods have now joined forces to create an epic new Star Wars TC, Freeworlds: Tides of War.

Description
Still a work in progress, here is another teaser for the RTS-like tactical overview Im currently implementing.
o_O
oh, looking very nice, Can't hardly wait to play.
That's amazing. Question: will/do you have a feature in place or planned to give capital ships (Yours, mainly) to deploy squadrons of fighters?
I'm sorry, I guess I don't get it; when in the game would this be seen? If you could put more details into the description, that would be great :)
I'm surprised to see this perspective in FL; good coding work!
This would be used by capital ships when engaging fleets. It would allow the pilot to make decisions based on the overview perspective as well as pilot the ship in this view.
That's excellent. :) Is it also possible that capital ships would move with point-and-click like an RTS?
I honestly don't think so
Capitol ships will be flown like any other ship, in cockpit, third person and turret views. They are player flyable ships.
I'll present it with a video in a news post once Im done. This is just a teaser ;)
