Empire at War Remake 3.5 Revisited

Empire at War Remake 3.5 Revisited is a combination and rework of Remake 3.5's simpler, space-only GC campaigns with all the new units, maps, features, starfighter rework and balance changes made in Remake 4.0+. This combined with features from other popular submods creates what I believe is the ultimate EAW experience, that focuses on a simple, fast paced galactic map and economy which takes you quickly between epic, large scale space battles.

Includes 7 GC campaigns each with varying levels of AI control and fully functional minor factions!

This submod was born of personal mixed feelings regarding 4.0's changes and a preference for 3.5's GC campaign gameplay. This way the gameplay of 3.5 remains while being selective with what is included from 4.0. Additionally includes many features from 3.5's overhaul submod.

Main features:

- Seven GC campaigns based on the large, full, reduced and core GC campaigns from EAW Remake 3.5.
- Seven fully playable factions including the Republic Hardliners, Separatist Holdouts, Mandalorians Protectors and Sith Cultists minor factions.
- Three modes of play in each campaign - you can choose to control your own faction fully yourself, give partial control to the AI in co-op mode or become an observer with the AI taking full control.
- Randomised starting units for all factions, making each campaign a unique experience.
- Complete removal of ground combat, units and structures. All references to it in the AI were removed.
- Fully functional and slightly reworked minor factions for the rebalanced full map, with all 10 factions fighting over a massive, chaotic galaxy at war.
- Large map has minor factions disabled but holding key planets, to focus on combat between the Empire, Rebels, Underworld, Republic and CIS.
- Core and Reduced maps for a smaller GC experience, with only the Empire, Rebels and Underworld active.
- Heavily edited and improved 4.0's AI for both GC and space combat.
- Starbase redesign with the Golan II and Golan III defensive platforms serving as level 4 and 5 starbases. No more bullying defenceless shieldgates or colonies - these are strong defensive platforms with a large garrison and several capital ships. This garrison is unique to each faction. All units can be built from a level 3 starbase.
- Simple, easy to understand and strong economy based on the total value of planets under your control. No freighters, upkeep or attrition.
- Tech levels increase automatically after a set time has passed. Heroes and carrier garrisons also upgrade automatically when the tech level increases.
- Battlegroups and the Battlegroup Command station have been ported from 3.5's overhaul submod and made fully functional with 4.0 and the minor factions.
- Big text and tooltip cleanup, including removing stats from hardpoints and fighters, removing redundant text from 4.0 that no longer applies and fixing spelling/grammar errors. Any changes made in this submod are reflected in the tooltips.
- Fixes to some bugs that were carried over from 3.5, Overhaul and 4.0.
- Buildable fighter rework where 3 squadrons are built as once, tied to a single unit in GC.
- Corvette rework, turning most corvettes into a squadron of three that is capable of dogfighting.
- Super Star Destroyer phases removed and TIE/Droid swarms replaced with large numbers of individual squadrons.
- Ported and included Niko's Venator submod and CanadaMan7's Clone War Holdouts submod.
- Ported and included music from Zavvy's Thrawn's Revenge Rescored submod and Clone War Holdouts.
- Fog of war removed from battle and GC (can be restored in GC by selling the probe droid on your homeworld).
- Doubled ship turn rate to make them more responsive and easy to control.
- Some units and abilities have been rebalanced from their 4.0 values.

A full list of changes and more information can be found in the pinned discussion threads.



Future planned additions:
- Port and include parts of Remake 5.0 when it releases.
- Maintain parity with Clone War Holdouts.
