You know, its surprising how little the AT-AT is used. The only maps its been on is Hoth maps, a Corellia map, Ord Mantell map, and Concord Dawn. Is the AT-AT going to be in here at all? Since it is used on more planets than just snow ones.

I just looked at this mod. The maps all look excellent. You really have a talent for creating immersive atmosphere in your maps.

Answers, small bits of info:

Info bit:
Need to get the ion cannons (b-wing second weapon) sorted or removed. Also, the proximity mines will have a lousy model for the beta, it'll be replaced by a custom model I made for the main release.

Answers:
Hebes24: thank you.
Ping: OK.
Commander_Fett: yep.
Nova: it's in at least one map on this. Probably gonna be on the lunar map too.
lesovikk1: no worries.
negah: agreed, you're in.
DarthRogue: "Lunar Map" CW Hunt, "Secret Map" CW Hunt (in both the rep side is part council guard, part jedi) + on anyone's plANET WHO WANTS THEM.

If you're doing more, I'd love to beta. If I don't make it to the beta list this map, I could do the next one. And I'm working on a map I might donate. Just a heads-up.

*d3linqu3nt might beat him, now I think about it.
You know, you aren't too good at sucking up. :P Everything looks great! If I can, I'll grab a beta spot when it goes out.
Yep. I kind of let things get in the way, like my real opinion.

Oh and Grev: little favor to ask of you; for the main relase of this mod could you do the uploading (ie together the bits I send you). Know it didn't work out last time but this time I'll be organised.
It'll be done.

Also, I think I got beta first, why am I not on the list?

@Grev: Sorry grev, it was pretty late when I wrote that and I din't see your bit. You can be added to.
@Fiodis: you can beta this and later stuff too since you made one of the legions.

Update which I'm very happy about:

Maps+7 (probably)

Only ones I'm revealing right now:

Tatooine: Desert War by Alpha_07 (large, detailed, well made map, I originally made the sandtroopers for it).
Bespin: Independence Cluster (half of fingerfoods Bespin: Independent Source).
Tadornis Minor: Lunar Resort (other half of above mentioned map, exterior areas, shield dome and new textures by me).

I can probably donate Clone Remnant Naboo to you. Since I'm resarting Clone Remnant as another project, I can give it to you. Also, I'm brainstorming some map ideas that I could do for this. If you want, I could PM you the info.

@Grev: Clone Remnant naboo: can you send me the world folder? there's some simple changes I'd like to make that will make it a unique naboo map. Oh and thanks for agreeing to be uploading stuff.

@Everyone: Ion cannon for space is now a no-no (mostly due to BF's physics in relation to objects). B-Wing now has Flak Missiles (you'll like them. Trust me.), TIE Defender has probe droids (work like auto-turrets).

What I've usually used and liked as an ion cannon - and your mileage may vary, of course - is a cannon that's weak against everything except for shields, which it's really strong against. This is in both Abraxas Platform and Space Endor, and it's a niche weapon, but very effective for attacking capital ships and shielded fighters (and it's also somewhat representative of how it worked in previous SW flight sims).

By niche weapon, do you mean hidden? Because I don't remember it in Space Endor.

By niche I think he means for a specific role.
And Mav, that's a good idea. I've used that ages ago but found it bland, but since rebel ships have shields, imp ships don't and the probe droids are a bit dull I think I'll give it to the TIE Defender. Thanks for the suggestion.

By "niche" weapon I mean useful only in limited situations (unlike a laser cannon which can be used for everything). It's the copilot weapon on the Y-Wing (just like Y-Wings are supposed to have). It's useful for capital ship assault (as it should be used), and if you point your Y-Wing at a critical system the AI will help you by taking it down.

Btw, TIE Defenders have got 4 blaster cannons, 2 ion cannons and 2 warhead launchers (mostly armed with advanced missiles)
