Trandoshans in Action video - Star Wars: Rise of the Shadows EAX (v.2) mod for Star Wars: Empire at War: Forces of Corruption
The title of the mod under development is called "Star Wars: Rise of the Shadows." The mod is somewhat based off a fictional timeline setting in the Star Wars universe between Episode 4: A New Hope and Episode 6: Return of the Jedi, but mainly between Episodes 4 & 5. Basically the characters in the mod are involved in a plot revolving around a recently formed Consortium of Criminal Networks (CCN) between various members of recently allied criminal networks such as the Zann Consortium, the Hutt Cartel, and the Black Sun; all of whom conspire with an emerging regime in Geonosis to liberate the planet from Imperial occupation. The Geonosian regime is led by Prago the Lesser, and his military commander Darth Rex, a dark Jedi. Along the way, Darth Rex shares his leadership with his new found love, Serra Nova, a Jedi knight who survived Order 66 in her padawan days. Meanwhile, the Rebels see this emerging criminal faction as a potential ally in their war against the Galactic Empire.
skins and models look good.
But i would make them WAY stronger than regular infantery
that would make it much more interesting, and influence the way you'd have to conquer the planet.
I could but if you notice in the video their numbers were about the same as the stormtroopers, and half of them survived after wiping out a small company of about 9 or 10 stormtroopers. I don't want to make it too much overkill for the Trandoshans in fighting regular infantry.I also have other special infantry for the Consortium that I try to make balanced in having certain attributes that are better than others. The Trandoshans are better at taking damage and have fairly high health. The Mandalorians that I have for the Consortium can have pretty good health too, plus they shoot really fast and can deal a fairly high amount of damage per shot.
