Preatorite Vong (Yuuzhan Vong) - Helska IV

Planets

Vector Prime*, Helska IV, Artorias, Belkadan, Sernpidal, Gree, Dubrillion, Destrillion, Vonak, Osarian*, Plooma, Rhommamool*, Nav Point: OM-1*


*space only. Nav Point: OM-1 is the staging ground for Commander Warshack Rojo's taskforce.


Overview

The Yuuzhan Vong forces in this GC represent the vanguard forces of the Praetorite Vong, so they do not have access to the large capital ships they will deploy when the war begins in earnest. They have a useful Level 3 starbase analogue at Vector Prime, from which they can build all of their ships (representing their forces entering the galaxy) - the largest of which being a Matalok Interdictor. The New Republic have no capital level shipyard, but they start with the Mediator, a powerful new battlecruiser, as well as an old Bulwark III. They can recruit the ISD-II Rejuvenator from Nav Point: OM-1 as well. In addition, the space map over Dubrillion is mostly taken up with the asteroid field and race course known as Lando's Folly - inhibiting the movement of capital ships. The New Republic faces a small threat over Osarian, whose government have hired mercenaries to attack Princess Leia.


Heroes

Han Solo and Chewbacca (Millenium Falcon); Mara Jade Skywalker (Jade Shadow); Jacen, Jaina and Anakin Solo (TIE Advanced X1s); Leia Organa Solo (Lambda-class shuttle); Commander Ackdool (Mediator-class battlecruiser Mediator), which spawns Wurth Skidder (XJ X-wing); Lando Calrissian (Lady Luck); Luke Skywalker (XJ X-wing); Commander Warshack Rojo (ISD-II Rejuvenator)


Nom Anor; Prefect Da'Gara; Yomin Carr


Special Units

In addition to their usual roster, each faction has units unique to a particular planet, scenario or campaign.


New Republic: Can recruit three TIE Hunter squadrons from salvage on Destrillion. Starts with three Escort Carriers over Destrillion. Belt Runner station over Dubrillion. Can recruit Z-95s from Osarian, when that planet is captured from the dissidents. Can recruit Y-Ties and X-ceptors from Dubrillion. Can build a Shieldship from Dubrillion.


Yuuzhan Vong: Can recruit Praetorite Vong infantry from Helska IV. Can build a Dovin Basal unit that can destroy a word (build limited to 1).

Coruscant isn’t in this GC but yes, you could use a Yo’Gand’s Core-type Dovin Basal to destroy any world

I’m afraid it will be a late Christmas present, early next year. But i’ll be releasing two additional GCs as well in that pack - I’d rather focus on finishing them than divert time into a partial release.

It’s taken a bit lonnger than planned but all the content I release will be in a polished form, with icons and text etc and all of the little details that I really notice in mods.

The Vector Prime GC is very small. The next two will be mid-sized, with around 30 planets each. But after that I will release a very large c. 100 planet GC covering the New Republic half of the Yuuzhan Vong War. That one will not have so many story events and will be a sandbox.

No - this mod adheres entirely to the Expanded Universe canon.

The Osarians referred to are from here: Starwars.wikia.com
