Star Wars
Knights of the Old Empire
Part II - Unity
|
Twenty years have past since the Sith Knight’s Lord Commander Drake slew the Sith Lord Darth Sidious and brought an end to the dreaded Clone Wars. Twenty years since the Sith Knights finished the reconstruction of the legendary Star Forge. Twenty years since the honest peoples of the Black Alliance and the remaining Confederates were brought under the protection and order of the Sith. Thus began the Unity
|
The Galactic Republic and United Systems kept a fragile peace over the years due to the massive fleet of droid controlled ships built by the Star Forge. Under the command of the Sith Knights, the United Fleet brought an end to the reign of the Hutts and built a flourishing economy of trade and tourism with Korriban’s Revan City becoming the heart of Unity activity without ever needing the corrupted Banking Clans‘ aid.
|
The Unity had few but strict requirements to come under it’s protection. Petitioning systems were secretly monitored by members of the Order of Sith Knights. To become members, systems were forced to do away with injustices. No slavery, Equal rights for all sentient life forms, and complete demilitarization of all defense fleets, security forces, and any armed vessel with a hyperdrive was forced to get registered. This ensured that no member system could attack another because all military power within the Unity rested with the Sith Knights’ forces alone.
|
Over the years the Order of Sith Knights has grown to rival the Jedi. Many families choose to send their children to the Knights where they can still be a part of their lives. Many Jedi also leave to join the Knights, mostly overeager padawan and older Jedi who tire of hiding relationships. The Jedi and Republic were truly damaged when the former Chancellor Padme Amidala and Anakin Skywalker revealed their marriage and imminent children and that Naboo was joining the United Systems and General Skywalker was joining his former padawan in the Order of Sith Knights. They didn’t want their kids to every have to fear love because someone says it’s wrong like they did.
|
The Republic is on the brink of collapse and the Jedi are failing with the change of time. In a last desperate act to survive, the Republic assaulted Korriban on the anniversary of the end of the Clone Wars
|
And sparks the call of battle. The very thing keeping the Knights from uniting the force will fall. The Knights will show the power of the force in Unity!

Passion and Serenity are one. All chains shatter in the wake of their Unity.
We are the guardians of the weak. Shadows to keep them in the light.
The Force is one within me.
In preparation of a 2016 release i've given out the mod in it's unfinished form to ASDF4455gamez who did playthrough series of all 3 factions in Knights of the Old Empire 1: Awakening. with or without any feedback from him i plan on releasing the mod very soon and pumping out patches here and there over time like i did with Awakening.
Here is the new full list of systems in the mod and what some of the more important ones do. I've not actual given abilities to planets unless they have some important use but in this case it's just shipyards and income. I hate the idea of some planets giving bonus to stats since you already have heroes that do that and it really wouldn't make much of a difference anyway.
Wow 84 is really alot for me when i play other mods. I thankfully have limited travel to allow a few key chokepoints yet still have plenty of alternate ways into different areas while also having a few scattered planets in the southern part of the galaxy that the factions can fight over.
This list does not match the older unit list because it is only what i currently have in the mod and not what was fully planned or were swapped around like Solo and Fel being Major Heroes now. By release i hope to have added the non-combat heroes like the faction leaders and maybe a few politicians who will basically act like Mon Mothma did in vanilla.

I don't know if it's a case for everyone but Luke is showing up as Hera in battles, it's really confusing
Once i finish fine tuning Awakening i'll move back to fix the issues in Unity.
I would love it if the Tartan Patrol Cruiser was replaced by the Arquitens Class from awakening D:
The Arquitens isnt an anti-fighter ship. With it's turbolasers and missiles it's more a Anti-Corvette/Light Frigate.
That role is now taken by the Phalanx.
I knowwwww, I just adore the Arquitens, its in too few mods, not to mention yours is the only mod with 'muzzle' flashes on Arquitens and Acclamators, so pretty :DD Love your mod :DD
Hello, I have a question. Where did you get Lord Revan Dragonfang's icon from? I ask as he looks a bit like Lelouch vi Britannia.
Many thanks
No it's some fan-made image of Red from Pokemon i got years ago when i was writing Cade Geass Fanfics that to me looked really badass and i was stocking up images to use as OCs.
I also use it for my steam account.
Hey EmperorNiko,
I love the way you present the art images here!
This mod provides Good quality.
Hey I'm having trouble in the GC, I cannot seem to get the AI to do anything or attack me while playing as either side. Anyone got a fix or suggestions for this?
Having same problem, might have to do with mods? Not sure, gonna try to do a fresh install
I tried a fresh install myself before commenting but I still am having the problem. Anyone got any tips?
