STAR WARS™ Empire at War: Gold Pack

Phoenix Rising v2.0
Balance on Ground
Hi, why are the Units so little on the Map?
And, for the Imperials there should be more Troops. (Deathtrooper, Scariftrooper.)
Thanks for your attention.

Because those are the canon sizes.

Why? The former were not mass produced and the latter are just a stormtrooper varient; they presumably use the same weapons and have the same level of armor protection.

As for balance on the ground, the way to win is simply mass produce infantry and autoresolve. Stormtroopers cost less then 200 credits and you can build up an army of 50 of them pretty easily with a dedicated world w or w/o any bonuses. Losses are nearly irrelevant; losing 10 sets you back the price of a single Tie Defender squadran.

Yeah I need to look into ground company costs and autoresolve values at some point. A block of 10 infantry platoons are not particularly effective if you actually fight the battle though, since they are slow and weak to vehicles.

Otherwise yeah SDSkinner answered the questions. We are a LEGENDS canon mod so Disney units are not on our list for potential additions. Units are to-scale with each other. The Empire is planned to have more infantry types eventually.

Hi
Thanks for your answer.
I have the same opinion like you.
I only asked.
P.S. I think it´s very realistic that the stormtroopers are stronger than the rebel soldiers.
Thanks

Honestly I think this mod has the best ground combat I've seen. I really like the infantry combat.

But why are all the shots of the imperials green ? only in space they should be green!

The consistent laser colors are designed so you can easily keep track of the faction you're fighting

Are the ground company costs a real problem though? They make sense when we compare it to starships, and if we lose too many we pay not with credits but with the time we need to produce them.

Do you have any plans for adding rocket launchers or some other kind of rudimentary at weapon to basic infantry like SecForce? Since Army Guards are a thing now,have you thought of adding like a single company to the standart army trooper batallion?
