[DarthFelth]

ok me and some friends play a turn based star wars stratergy game called Galactic Conquest Online. you have a java app that you manage your empire in, but your ships, troops, move, attack, etc. and when to enemy fleets meet, you use a HW star wars mod to fight the battle. at the moment ours based on Zeelichs SWNR mod, however once out new app is ready and this Evillejedi's mod looks about right then we shall start on the HW2 campaign. WHich will have its own story line, unique Empires as well as some of the fav ones. at the moment its set many years after the battle of endor, Luke skywalker a getting past his prime, as are the rest of the famous hero, the emperor is long defeat and there is a new Sith (ME!! ) so if you interested in joining in, come join us, the hw1 campaign we are playing is just for so people get a feel for the game, however the next version shall be alot more in depth and well, will have alot better ship options and we are hoping to include some Unquie ships from a new evil that has appeared in star wars galaxy, along with the Chiss empire.

Do you have a link for yours ?

 

 

Well is not much for now ....just our latest soft TC.

 

 

Aslo do you have a link for that game ?

[DarthFelth]

hey cool dude, well mines called Galactic Conquest online

*points to under sig*

 

ours is pretty cool, however the game app we are using is from the old game, Empire vs Republic, the new app is being worked on by a guy called Rgreat. This is really what Rebellion could have been and so much more. at the moment we are working on updating the webesite, however i have no idea how to use dreamweaer

The Homeworld 2 mod is incredible. It's run by evillejedi, who does great work. The most recent page of the Relic forums that discusses the mod is http://forums.relicnews.com/showthread.php?t=21378&page=106&pp=15 <--- right there.

 

The main site for the mod is http://www.swrebellion.net/evillejedi/ <--- here. Not the purtiest, but the screenshots on it are amazing! Go check it out!

[Cain]

Ok...

[Turgidson]

Hi folks.

[DarthFelth]

hey dude, long time no see

Okay, those screetshots look pretty sweet. That said, I've got more than a few questions, so pardon me if I remain skeptical.. Bear in mind that I've never played Homeworld.

 

1. Aside from large fleet battles, what other game features are there?

2. Are there characters involved, and are they capable of similar missions as in Rebellion?

3. How big is the galaxy, and how is navigation handled between worlds?

4. How many, if any, features are included in this mod that are most desired by people looking for a "Rebellion 2"?

[DarthFelth]

no real characters or anything, its a game pretty dsigned for ship to combat, its just that the engine allows for so much in ship battles than was possible with rebellion. his mod is pretty fun to play (when he fixs the docking problem) when the Star wars new rebellion mod came out for the orignal hw, i was amazed when i played it, i would say the same for this one, i think Eville has out done his self and really done a damn good job, it will be cool when he gets everything working 100% it will make the game that much better, its these kinda mods that keep games like hw alive (hw2, bah ) give it a try, rent the game or something if u dont wanna pay for a game which may not seem your cup of tea mate. But i do think if you are a hardcore star wars fan you will enjoy it.

[Texas_Fett]

I may do that. It caught my eye when it first came out, what with being "Game of the Year" and all (at least, in several mags), but it being a non-Star Wars space-combat game hampered my enthusiasm. I'll just have to add it to my "list of things I intend to do...sometime in the future".

[DarthFelth]

well dude, worth having a look trust, still visit my forum much more interesting

[AsterXiphos]

I'd say picture it this way:

 

In Rebellion, this would be the equivalent feature as the battles in space. There aren't hero's or commanders, it's just ships. Ships in high detail: the ISD has 7500 poly's with goblins. Check the Relic Forum for the screenshots of the new ISD eville just made!

 

Right now it is just a multiplayer/skirmish build, but there will probably be a single player (hero's included) later on. Weapons fire in salvo's with authentic sound, accuracy, and range. Eville has put a lot of effort into making the mod as accurate to the Star Wars canon as possible. It is extremely impressive; I bought Homeworld 2 just to play this mod, and it is definitely worth it!

[DarthFelth]

i didnt buy hw2 to ply this mod, just any star wars mod i was gona make one learn maya and all, but no need now, cos eville is doing a stunning job with his mod

[Evaders99]

Its basically Rebellion's tactical mode. Only done into a full game. A full-featured 3D interface with excellant models and gameplay.

 

I do recommend the original Homeworld, if not for its graphics, than its impressive storyline and music. Homeworld 2 is weak on storyline, but great on graphics and mods (like Eville's)

[Destraex]

Well this looks better than the Relic forums

[DarthFelth]

yeah dude, nice to have custom avatars, besides i dont like many of the mod on relic board ( i made a joke and it was deleted cos it was slighty off topic)

 

Anyways, HW2 is abit more than that Evaders, i mean its actualy uses the whole 3d map, in any direction, the Rebellion combat is very limited and you cant re launch fighters, which i must say is a bit silly, but still. The new ISD that Evillie has been working on is damn good, i cant wait to see a few more of his models re-done (well imp ones anyways )

Not quite .....for storyline try Cataclysm ..... Evaders.........anyway if we will be able to replace the original rebellion tactical with the HW 2 Mod SW it will be great
