Project Kathun - Clone Wars Era Conversion

In an alternate Star Wars universe, Chancellor Palpatine actively recruits fallen Jedi who've abandoned their order, aiding separatist armies and expanding their dominion over Kathun.

The conflict between Jedi and Sith has led many to depart from their respective orders, with their presence now spanning across the entire planet. Not every departing Jedi aligns with Palpatine, some are tied to Revan or other influences.

This mod merges the Knights of the Old Republic era with the Clone Wars era, battle droids and clone troopers fight against each other in a planetary war, scattering numerous Jedi and Sith across Kathun. Within this altered universe, Star Wars is confined to a single planet rather than a vast galaxy.


This mod aims to overhaul the total rework made by Kitya, the creator of Project Kathun. In my opinion, the best and most ambitious Kenshi mod.

Thanks to the marvelous work done in Project Kathun, I've been able to make modifications and undertake a complete overhaul of the game world to resemble the Clone Wars era. However, it's very important to note that this mod is a blend of the Old Republic and the Clone Wars. What does this mean?

It means you'll encounter a TON of Force users; both Jedi and Sith have similar numbers in their ranks, there are no more Jedi than Sith. Both armies are composed by Republic Clone Troopers and Trade Federation Battle Droids.

I also wanted to highlight that it is not balanced, and intentionally so. A single experienced Jedi will be capable of taking down an entire battalion of Battle Droids (as in Star Wars lore). This doesn’t mean they are invincible; for instance, a well-trained squad of Clone Troopers can defeat Jedi in combat, and of course, having Force users in your squad will make you much more powerful. Raiding Jedi or Sith hideouts now demands a substantially potent force-users squad.


This mod is a work in progress and there's still a lot of content to be added. However, it's perfectly playable in its current state, and you'll find plenty of new content.

This is a big overhaul so you'll need several extra mods to ensure everything works properly. I've divided them into "hard requirements" and "soft requirements".

To put it briefly, this collection is what you need:

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3126373998

I strongly recommend spending a few minutes installing all of them as the mod won't function to its full potential without them.

Hard Requirements:

(Steam required mods)

Soft Requirements:

Nexus

Palpatine: https://www.nexusmods.com/kenshi/mods/1265
Darth Vader: https://www.nexusmods.com/kenshi/mods/659

Steam

Clone Wars collection: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3126373998

Don't worry too much about the load order, just load “Project Kathun 2.0” at the bottom of your mod list.

In case you want to be sure, this mod order should work: https://imgur.com/a/fmzglE8 (place any Star Wars mod you have above 'Project Kathun 2.0').

For music and new sounds (lightsabers, blasters) you need: https://www.nexusmods.com/kenshi/mods/847

I highly recommend using a ReShade (It doesn't have to be the one I suggest): https://www.nexusmods.com/kenshi/mods/217
