Rise of the Crime Lords is a mod that adds the Black Sun Syndicate and The Hutt Cartel as playable factions along with multiple additions to the original ones as well as adding some new unplayable ones.
I haven't played the mod but i am gonna love it if you put more units to the new factions and fix the bugs and ad the mandalorian faction playable. Then this mod can be a great.If you have z3rox is foc addon 3.5 you can use that stuff for that mod. Now then i will give a 9/10 or 10/10.
So far so good!
Both the new factions are fun and are cool to play as or fight against. However, I felt that the hero units for the Black sun were very over-powered in space (which was fun a first, but got boring fast). Overall, however, I thought the mod was very good and enjoyable to play
Really good mod, very much liked the scaling on ships, good balance between lore accuracy and playability. Space battles also seemed particularly well balanced for the most part. I also really liked the variety of factions available and the independent faction(s?) here and there, very cool idea.
Some of the factions are (perhaps deliberately) unbalanced, sometimes in space but particularly in ground combat. It makes for an interesting challenge but sometimes feels a bit cheap.
Very solid mod overall and totally worth the download and a few hours of your spare time. :)
