New map for Khomm image - Empire at War Expanded: Thrawn's Revenge mod for Star Wars: Empire at War: Forces of Corruption
Thrawn's Revenge is a large-scale mod for Empire at War: Forces of Corruption. It includes the events of the Galactic Civil War after Palpatine's death at Endor, up until the signing of the Pellaeon-Gavrisom treaty. If you own the Steam version of EaW, you will have to complete extra steps to run the mod after installation. Please see the manual for these steps.
Home to the unvarying, self-cloning Khommites, the planet Khomm largely stayed out of galactic affairs. By apparent choice, the planet's cities were noted as being incredibly boring, with most buildings looking almost exactly the same, apart for the planets' major cloning facilities.
Being introduced in Darksaber, from the Bantam era (pre-Prequels), the Khommite homes were rustic, not pristine, and made of green stone. As such, I chose to use Naboo's more natural-feeling house props.
To start, I put together a single home, spending hours messing with terrain, choosing textures, and adjusting exact prop placement. Once I had this home completed, I went on to make exact copies of it more than 60 times, mimicking the style of suburban row houses.
The road textures of the planet mix a greeble 'square' bump with various stone path textures to create roads that look both natural and unnatural.
Despite the map's gridlocked design, the infantry only paths lend the map towards feeling a bit chaotic despite the symmetry.
Darksaber was not the best Star Wars book ever written, but I did enjoy the cloned Jedi Dorsk 81's homecoming adventure on the planet.

This is a very cool concept, we don't really have a map that has a vibe of like a suburban area.
I remember Darksaber. Nicely done.
Its always fun to march a walker battalion down these wide avenues, great screenshot potential
