Galactic Civil War rages across the galaxy. Darth Vader, seeking the throne, had trained a secret apprentice, Darth Acris to help him challenge the Emperor. After the Empire destroyed Alderaan, Vader struck down and destroyed the Emperor. Now Vader and Acris must consolidate their power and build the military while staving off the Rebels and other rising galactic powers. They must retain order and bring peace to the Empire. The Sith will rule the galaxy once more! Plenty of new units, heroes, planets, etc. in this new take on the Star Wars saga. This is Vader's New Order - Empire surrounded.

Haha just realized that thanks. And I'm not sure, I thought about making some factions allies and you won't be required to attack them or they won't attack you. It's something I'm considering.

No problem, and I think you should. It would be the first mod for the EaW game that I've seen to have such a features.
