The January patches have allowed us to save the Eriadu Authority and re-enable the Yevethans! An updated version of this video will be coming out soon.
I am glad that the Vong and the Ssi-Ruuvi are coming, but really, do you HAVE to scrap the Eriadu Authority of ALL the Warlord Factions! Its my 2nd fav Faction (After the Greater Maldrood!).
As the comment you replied to says, the patch means we don't have to remove any.
I feel really dumb now
I would hate to be whoever makes ssi-ruuvi and killik models
RIP

New Jedi order mod has Sis-Ruuvi starship models few as there are
thats funny, but i am actualy THAT guy who would be genuinly intrested in playing as killik, was kinda intrested in the species since encountered them in SWTOR MMO, and to think of it - they are natives of ALDERAAN, one of most iconic planets in star wars and realy inportant planet in my favorite old republic era... their ancient history actualy REALY depthens lore of planet and adds to the tragedy of its destruction, and as i havent read anything about dark nest crisis it will be fun to expirience this events firs time in strategy game where you actualy have control - and then go to read and see how much difference my decisions made
P.S. Sry for my english, its second language, and WoRds hArd anyways))
Dannebrogs Søn true but at least this one has a nebula class that lives up to its legends reputation besides TR
I’ll be honest I cannot wait for the unknown Regions and yuuzhan vong
Vong coming in and messing up the game will lead to so many cool moments
Yeah I’m equally looking forward to ssi Ruuk
In the meantime you can check out new Jedi order mod
It’s no where near as polished but it does include the ssi Ruuk and a fully fleshed out yuuzhan vong faction although it offer little in interesting gameplay though it has some miner story elements
I haven't played this in probably 3 years or so. The progress since then is just incredible. Well done! I'm definitely getting back in.
I can't wait until we get to see this stuff in your playthroughs, sounds like galactic level is gonna get a whole lot more interesting.
Yeah
^
Galactic level has always been the most lacking part of the game in my opinion so I am beyond exited for these story events and invasions they keep mentioning
I love the Chiss Ascendancy ships. They hav a very Stargate inspired look to them
Agreed, they look like if the Wraith and the Asgard had a love child
SkyTech RTS I was thinking more Asgard-Tau’ri hybrid rather than Wraith, with emphasis on the Tau’ri side for a number of ships
@@KaiserMattTygore927 love this take on the ships was thinking the same thing
I really dig them, though I wish they got some kind of super star destroyer to go with them. It would give more value to planets like Byss and Bilbringi.
However, I do love the Syndic destroyer and the Phalanx. Them boys are beefy!
The Chaff Destroyer also punches above it's weight class. I dig it.
Candin Muniz having no SSDs is a very big part of the EoTH's identity, since they are a thrawn based faction, and thrawn was diametrically opposed to the design and philosophy of super star destroyers. Therefore it makes no sense for them to have them.
those ton falk cruisers looking FINE
I really think people sleep on the Hutts in Star Wars strategy, both mods and official games. They've got unique units, politics, history and a massive swath of space they've controlled relatively unopposed for thousands of years.
Them and black sun
problem is that 'relatively unopposed' thing. Nobody fights them, so there isnt much of a reason to give them the limelight.
Just ordered my new Pc and I know as soon as I get it I'm installing Empire at war and then installing both of ur mods and playing them both on the highest graphics. Used to play both mods on my laptop with lowest graphics then it broke. I've already put over a 1000 hours into the game thanks to ur mods with many more on the way with my new Pc. 👍🍻
@TheeGamerLuke it might lag, I mean it's not the mods or your PC fault, it's the game itself, it's just very old and it's engine runes on 1 core, sometimes it even lags even tho I'm using a 4090 and I7 12th, rarely tho, like ultra rarely
Really ambitious roadmap, I can't wait to see how the government mechanics will evolve over the course of the next few updates. Hutt and Chiss Ascendancy as factions also sounds really cool. With the EA eventually phasing out, who will inherit the long awaited Asserter class?
One of other imperial factions will get Assertor after EA's *death*
I cannot wait to play as the Chiss, always wanted to do that had to have the EotH tide me over :)
^
WHAT!?!? YOU AREN'T ADDING THE GUNGAN ARMY AS A PLAYABLE FACTION!?!?!?!? Angry comment, dislike, unsubscribe, delete EAW, throw computer out window, light it on fire, etc etc etc.
I'm joking of course. I love your idea of using the independent faction as a way to include more factions without exceeding the faction limit. Do you know if that Is something Petroglyph could patch?
Gungan Bombad Bombers Gunna Gut tha Imperials Meesa Thinks.
You don't need to burn your computer, just send Corey Jar Jar 💁🏼♂️
I'm thinking of all the different factions that Warhammer 40k, type mod/game would have. I got Puritans, Radicals for Imperium factions (because they are not united), you got the 4 chaos gods and undivided, Orks, Eldar, Dark Eldar, Necron, Tyranids, and Tau.
So 14 factions there but I could go beyond that (Heretical factions Renegade and Apostate).
@@Marinealver cool idea please make it happen!!!!!!!
Well... they fixed it LOL
In a few minutes you said the Hutts and Revan’s revenge. It blew my mind.
Also, do you plan to add new planetes to make sure this new factions do not step on already existing factions’ toes ?
Yes, some factions like Hapans (currently there's just 3 planets and few space-only systems, so best example) will get more planets in appropriate GCs
Nemesis 1st ok thanks a lot
This sounds really ambitious, and pretty lit. I’m looking forward to this
I still can't believe you're trying to turn Empire at War into Stellaris. Incredible.
It's too bad NmFallen Republic just dropped and it might be a top 10 mod of all time.
@Logan Ferguson isn't fall of the republic also a mod done by Corey ?
Too bad you can't form Alliances, that would make Galactic Conquest even more interesting.
mandalorians being a playable faction would be kinda cool, they could maybe have an option to alliance with the hutts or maybe other independent factions
Domequisha The Mandalorians where only in the The Old Republic a mayor force. Post endor they are basically non existent. But they will definitely be in Revan’s Revenge
Domequisha the mandalorians are pretty much dead up until the vong war, and even then are still super minor.
They are not worth the faction slot
Looking at the new Chiss ships, I'm thinking that there was some inspiration from the Systems Alliance Navy from Mass Effect.
They seemed more stargatey to me.
The Peltast looks straight out of the Turian navy.
@@autumngottlieb3071 perhaps Thrawn's Revenge based its ships off the Chiss Acendency which existed before the year 2000. I play a lot of Dawn of the Reapers. I do not think the ship looks Turian. That mod for Sins uses Mass Effect ship models for the Alliance, Cerberus, Council (Turian, Salarian, Asari), Mercenaries (Blood Pack, Eclipse, Blue Sun) or Reapers. None of the Turian ships in Mass Effect lore reminds me of a chiss vessel. I can zoom in and look at them from all angles. But regardless these ship models existed in comics and books before Mass Effect 1 was even being written. If anything I would give a Stargate inspiration for some of the Chiss vessels. That mid 90s to late 90s style.
Thanks so much for all your effort to make this mod an unmatched star wars experience
Did you say Revans revenge? when talking about how hutts could be in other mods
Yes
New models look great. Plans sound great, I also love how adding in NJO and LotF era content will open some new options for NR (such as the mediator, strident and mon cal heavy carrier shown in this video) in addition to the new factions. Very excited for the future thanks for all your hard work.
Yes yes yes!
Also, the NR seems to have had all of their models redone for 3.0. And they look absolutely amazing.
Always love these little update videos. :) :)
Wow Corey, thanks for the tease. I saw you cancelling that mediator construction for another time. Thanks for the update. Will the boarding shuttles be reintroduced in the next update as capturing ships is my favourite thing to do in EAW? Looking forward to the update. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
They plan on re-adding them.
Boarding will be fixed in 3.0
No playable Mandalorians 😭
Ah well. Understandable as they weren't very major. Still sounds very promising and I'm eagerly looking forward to future updates :)
If they'd ever, it would definitely be Revans Revenge, we just have to wait till then
Yes, playable Mandalorians would be nice!
The vehicles that you guys design are awesome, I wish we could see some of them get canonized
I can’t wait for all of this! Thanks for all the work that you do Corey!
These are the best mods for playing in the EU you always do great to expand and try to cover more eras in star wars thank you for the hard work and I look forward to enjoying for a long time to come.
Love to see the continuing work on this. Keep up the good work!
Amazing work! Looking forward to it all!
I’m blown away by the amount of thought you guys have put into this. I thought some of these factions were kind of a joke but your explanation for what you want to see the Dark Nest to be shows great judgement
Aw, pretty sad that the EA might be removed. It's my new favorite faction and I love it. I hope they won't be deleted. But if they would (which seems very likely), I recommend moving their SPMAs to the Pentastar's arsenal. They REALLY NEED artillery. Considering their opposition on their side of the galaxy.
As I said in the video, literally everything belonging to the EA will be given to other factions. There is not one single EA-specific unit that is EA-specific because it was actually explicitly or only used by EA, they're *all* things *we* chose to gave them, and will therefore be able to put somewhere else.
Just play Empire Remanent.
You guys have delivered just incredible expansions for EAW, absolutely love what you guys are doing and have done!
i was looking at your mods pictures and some of the new ISD's im seeing actually look like thrawn designed them, well done
I also noticed the Mediator and MC heavy cruiser you were showing. Can't wait for those and other exciting changes.
“…or even a galactic civil war mod…”
You know, I was thinking that a mod with the gameplay of FotR/TR but set during the galactic civil war would be awesome. But I also understand that working on three mods is probably already overwhelming at times
I think it would be really cool to have a campaign mode that starts with the civil war and you can pick a faction and then as you expand and time moves by you will have to face all of the events that happen in the legends books. Also you can start off with ships common of that time but as you gain new tech, you will have to choose to retire tech slots to open up for new tech. Also different planets should pop up to be available to interact with as this massive campaign progresses.
Wow I love the addition of the hapans and the kiliks especially the kiliks that blew my mind 🤯 really awesome
thanks for your work you and your team to keep star wars fresh
Can't wait to see these new factions, especially the Hutts and Corellia! As for the EA, my favorite thing about them was Delvardus since he seemed to be the only Warlord fighting for more than just power, but to bring back to life his lover. Hope he can be recruited as a hero for other Empire factions through influence or the new government mechanics.
He spawns as a hero for the Empire in the Dark Empire campaign currently so he won't be totally unplayable.
Lol didn’t kaine stick to himself till pellaeon????
@@gargillaape5292 No, Kaine's forces were independent for what's considered Era1 in TR, after that his territory and forces formed the backbone of most major imperial regimes (Thrawn was heavily bolstered by Kaine, Palatine gained a ton of support from him, and then Daala/Palleon).
ChrisMDB I think Kaine was a isolationist who wasn’t purely after power despite him supporting and favoring imperial rule
Sounds amazing, thanks for the future roadmap videos. Will the Yuuzhan Vong be in the FotR mod as a Clone Wars invasion rare event? It's an interesting idea to me and Eckhartsladder did a video about that hypothetical scenario a while ago.
Piratical Moustache As raid fleets in FotR, Revan’s Revenge and the unannounced Vader’s Revenge (production name) at least. Small group of Vong scouts attacking the SW galaxy happened all the time. The earliest Vong attack recorded was a few years before KotOR and there also were some during the clone wars.
Technically they could get such a treatment that they become a playable faction everywhere but I think it’s unlikely. Implementing them as unplayable faction wouldn’t be to far off
Seeing them in the thumbnail would make you think that.
I´m really looking forward to the new factions and the Ssi-Ruuvi especially. Can´t wait to try them out! :D
Let’s go new video!!!!
i am exited for it keep up the good work
Thanks for your hard work.
The Ssi-Ruuk? OMG I'm definitely getting this game when they are added, they are literally my favourite race in star wars
Getting to play as Space T-Rexes in Star Wars. Never thought I'd see the day.
Very cool you guys are the heart and soul of the game. Maybe they should have had you guys make the movies.
I love the removal of the EA. The EA having a Praetor and an Interdictor star early game is really annoying because you will lose vital units just to eliminate those 2 units. I love the implementation of little side quests in the mod, like the GM taking Kashyyyk, perhaps side quests can be worked into the southern part of the galaxy.
Also, on Admiral difficulty with Cruel AI the Pentastar Alignment are a real problem. The PA dismantle the entire era progressive system. They will take out Zsinj, CSA, push the Empire into the core by week 60. If you are playing as the New Republic the Empire will try to fight the PA, the Empire gets fucked up by the PA, which means that the GM and the EA take the core. The Empire never recover so the heroes and leaders that spawn fall like dominoes. I believe locked planets and side quests are a solution to this problem. Also, more planets should spawn with defensive structures and build times for defensive structures should be drastically reduced. Does Byss really need to be built from the ground up when the Emperor spawns in?
That was too much bitching and I apologize, I love the mod and appreciate the effort you guys put in. Thanks
I like the EA, hopefully TIE Hunters and Imperial Escort Carrier come back though...
As I said, everything the EA has unit and hero wise is pretty much stuff we chose to give them. They'll all be slotted into other factions.
@@CoreyLoses sweet
Love the torpedo sphere
@@Speedster___ what faction gets that currentyl?
This looks / sounds way more interesting than what we have now. Thanks for making these
Although you’re removing my favourite faction, I’m still happy you keep adding content to the game and I hope you still keep making updates to the mod for the future
Holy jesus!!! I play TR since some months and when I saw this IM HYPED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
adding the vuong is also gonna be awesome
I had the most fun with this game being able to use the capture shuttles. Without them, I am really struggling with keeping interest in EAW. This is just me personally.
Agreed, any plans to bring back the capture shuttles on progressives?
Zeke A. Their script broke but for 3.0 they will be fixed
Can't wait for the Correllians and Hutts!
I reeeaaaally hope to one day see some manner of diplomacy. It'd be neat as heck.
I really enjoyed the Duskhan League but I understand that they are not that interesting "politics" wise. But I am absolutely hyped for the next updates and can't wait to try the factions you just talked about and how the will be gameplay wise.
I can’t wait for the Vong, they’re gonna be so much fun
The Hutts will also be really fun too
I am very excited to see the chiss faction
I'm looking forward to seeing Vong, the Killik Nest, and Ssi-Ruuvi Imperium.
This is gonna be amazing, and I hope that you make it so that if you conquer a planet with a massive ship yard, you can make the ships of that faction. it would make it so that you have to be strategic in where you go, it would make taking Kuat etc, almost a priority lol
I would like to see more content surrounding the mandolorians
Absolutely stoked for the YV war. I hope the difficulty can be scaled a bit, so that I can start earlier and be well established but still overwhelmed by the first waves.
Would be interesting if Vector Prime was an empty-space node on the galaxy map like the transitory mists, so theoretically you could build up your defenses around the entry point to the galaxy if you know what's coming
Bennett Harnisch To prevent that, the Devs are planning something.
I personally believe that if Vector Prime gets added or something that the Vong Systems will be heavily connected with the Unknown Regions.
Either way, don’t worry. The Devs said that even if your prepare a little it will still feel like the Vong war.
Hmmmm these stories all sound so familiar.... I tip my hat to all. The work from the Lucas Canon. It’s amazing and detailed beyond what I thought we’d get.
Eriadu Authority bros RIP.
That aside, I've been pumped for the Hapans since 2018 Let's gooooo.
Thanks to the petroglyph patch, they will no longer need to remove them if I am correct
@@calvinrummell you are indeed, friend. But months ago, that was not the case.
@@RoyalMudcrab Yes, thank the petroglyph that changed....
Are you guys gonna eventually do a sci-fi at war style mod? I'd love to see a mod like that fleshed out as well as this one.
All this stuff looks great. The only thing I wanna see is Corelian have two of thier frieghter class ships as gunboats. That would be awesome and thier are a few options
@Corey Loses I like the Acclamator II-model. Are there any pictures of it by chance?
These new factions are getting me excited, especially seeing those Chiss ships
Megamasers >> Turbolasers
Wait Revan’s revenge oh my that makes me so happy
I can't wait to play as the Hutts!
To be honest I love your work with this mod. I have mad respects and I love it all and I welcome anything you want to bring in. But will there be any new news on your clone Wars mod fall of the republic? ❤
There was just an overview video covering both mods last week, and there'll be more FotR-specific news coming as well.
@@CoreyLoses I'll check it out ^^
Man I cant wait for the new models
I can't wait to make the galaxy kneel to its feet with my fierce Vong armada!
still playing the older versions, but for some reason when doing zinj hunt, one planet cannot be taken, thus can't beat it (ICW Demo) months ago i also tried one of the ERA types, going from era 1-era 5, same effect....unable to beat, even if all planets conquered; one game play i did, and i had a planet with an admiral but the planet she was on was North, and inaccessible.....is 3.0 going to do that to me also?
Hey Corey I've had an idea for thrawns revenge that gives influence another use if factions have a certain influence level on an enemy or neutral planet there should be a decision that allows the player to attempt to cause revolts and allow the planet to join them and I think this should be a ability for era 1 and 2
Low influence will cause revolts, however it will not be player prompted and what happens on a revolted planet will depend on which planet it is. They.will very rarely join the player.
Will be aded Imperial Fleet Carrier?
(ISD with bigger hangar and smaller number of weapons, opposite of tector class)
I've been playing the campaign when the emperor comes back as a clone with the eclipse and oh boy is it gonna help
You guys should release a sub mod for 3.0 that adds in moving turrets for those with the systems to run it. Idk what limitations you guys have, but that would be a very much appreciated option to have
Killiks: Every ship is a lucrehulk with suicidal drone starfighters.
Wow totally I can’t wait
7:44 is is going to be one big rich victory royal.
for the hapans, can you add the matriach battle dragon from the njo submod? i just really think that the hapans having a heavier battle dragon makes sense.
what are those new frigates hanging around in the New Republic fleet at the beginning?
Will any of these factions (particularly the Hutts, the Vong, the Killik, and maybe the Corellians) appear in Ascendancy, and will some of the Chiss Ascendancy models show up in there as well?
Coming back here after the updates to the factions cap
Glorious news, comrades.
Is it possible to play gc in multiplayer?
I can start a game with a friend but we can't select the space buildings. We can 9nly select ground and light ships
To be honest never been a Vong fan. But what we could get from them gameplay wise sounds amazing
Can you go to declare war on Yuusan Vong as from the star wars galaxy? etc, New republic attacking Yuusan Vong and stuff.
I can't wait to play the Vong.
Killiks and Ssi-Ruu baby yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaahhhhhh!!
Can you add the era of the OT aswell? Also a few more ships for the empire such as the “Arquentines” and more versions of the “Aclamator” perhaps?
The OT will not feature at all in TR because it is set in the Imperial Civil War, all post endor, that would be content for a GCW mod, if and when that ever happens
Could make an upgrade system for the imperial remnant that acts like a choice on which warlord to consider available at tech one in skirmish and the initial menu for GC that alters your unit roster to reflect that upgrade choice, maybe from a special station for skirmish. Nomada_firefox has a similar system except the upgrade is replaced by a ship, and it was for the new Disney canon. Rebels had the raddus which could build resistance units, and the supremacy for the empire which built first order units
What would that accomplish? You can already playa s the other Warlords, and territory is an important part of what makes the Warlords themselves, having one faction switch between all of them wouldn't do much.
Corey Loses just food for thought as a means to save slots for the factions
Valerie does amazing work. These new ship concepts/models are great.
黒雪 Thank you
I would really like to see the Ssi-ruuvi, both to play as and to fight. They're so creepy
Man I'd love to play killiks
It would be cool if the CIS could be added as a faction like a remnant or even a raid fleet
Just wondering, and if this was explained at some point in the video I am sorry for missing it and asking, but will all of these factions be playable in Skirmish?
How much different is the yuunzan vong gonna be compared to the new jedi order mod?
Still sounds super promising
Will the Hutts have the Darksaber as a supership?
Possibly
Didn’t that not even work when they tried to fire it due to how much they cheaped out?
@@matthewturner5178 that's true but the nature of EAW itself means things don't have to follow exactly what was depicted.
I want the Hutts sooner rather than later. xD I think the ideas of how they are wanted to work to be quiet interesting. Even fighting against them since right now you can just roll in and take hutt space as a quick cash grab as the imperials, EA or new Republic
