The Star Wars mod overview and video

[Neyreyan_Youtube]

is this a mod? Not exactly, it's a full conversion of the game wich means you get new armors/weapons for dwarves and a new tech tree with new building and furniture.
It all looks like stars wars for the most part.
The Balance of the mod? The game is a lot easier with the mod because the weapons/armor are overpowered and you get them early but it's not broken, it can be a challenge for newer players or harder planets.
But they reduced the grinding of the tech tree to a minimum so everything is a lot better balanced than the original. What do i mean by that?
You have less techs in the tech tree but now everything is usefull and better balanced so no more craftin 100 things just to get another tech.
Overall, to win a game/campaign planet you need about 6-7 hours or even faster if you rush it.

I'll say one thing, the blaster accuracy is pretty spot on. Miss. Miss. Miss. Miss. Miss.

i saw the movies, and have to say..its authentic..when your dwarfes wear the white storm trooper armor its perfect, they shoot shoot shoot and hit nothing...like in the movies :P

but i think its ok , using the blaster needs the skill to do well and when skill gets better, the accuracy too, i hope so.

Yeah, the don't hit much the blasters:) the only thing that is missing is darth vader boss:)

You need to add the archer skill book to blaster wielders - works just like a bow.

I find the whole research tree off. No tables early to place food, no planks in tree to build the Xmas tree, no dye to make Rudolph. The comfort level of tier 1 items is often better then their tier 2 counterparts - ie...sleeping place vs modular bed. The whole advanced furnishings (T2)research tab is laughable at best. EVERY single item is lower in comfort than the T1 items.

The nice thing tho is you do make a fair qty with each craft of items.

You can catch fish but have no recipes by mid game is kinda head scratching too.

As far as I know, the skill book only increases damage, not accuracy. It was mostly a joke anyway, because the blasters are pretty strong when they do connect. Once you get your guys equipped with blaster rifles and a handful of improved sith staves, you can faceroll the Forest and Snow levels. I beat Forest in < 6 hours and Snow is looking to be about the same (currently 4.5 hours with 3/5 portal pieces). The mod sets the game on a much more enjoyable pace, IMO.

Skill books increase both accy and dmg. Has been that way since they were introduced way back. Go buy 4 or 5 skill books and then give them all to one blaster weilder and see the difference.

I did ge tthe joke too btw. That comment was for folks that were actually having issues with them. I also remember when bows and staves were introduced, Bows sucked bad, you made 100 arrows and maybe 10 to 15 would hit , rest would miss :).

I gave some of them the archer book but they arevery strong as it is:) And....the base doesn't need to be defended because of how strong the towers are:)
And the Santa presents armors are too good, overall i feel the game is too easy now BUT i hope some genius gamer will make a hardcore mod for the game, that's what i am waiting for.
I remember deleting my save in the desert map....and i didn't want to play another 12-15 hours to get back to that but if some makes a mod so hard it takes 15 hours for the first map i would still play it

Anyone know of a replacement for the cart and tracks in the Star Wars mod?
