For More: Fionwe was working with me on this but he disappeared, then reappeared, then disappeared againg

Impressive work Repsharpshooter,I can't wait for more progress from this map!

- :clone:

Wow you're right, Fionwe hasn't been around. I've only just now realized. Anyway it looks great -- I especially like the cloaked sniper. Lighting might use a little tweaking though. It seems a little shaded judging from the pictures.

looks good!

Cool, looks great, particulaly the cloaked Krath.

I noticed the map doesn't have a name, really.

How bout...

Rhen Var: Ulic's Exile?

Once Ulic Qel-Droma was striped of his ability to use the force, and relized all he had done, he fleed to exile on Rhen Var, where he was later found by Nomi Sunrider's daughter, Vima, who wanted to learn the ways of the jedi, as her own mother was to busy to give her training the proper attention.

Later, a old rival of Ulic's Worked together with a smuggler, to find him, (somehow, Nomi showed up too) and confront him, after a while, and with Vima's help, Nomi, and Ulic's rival came to see he had been punished enough.
The smuggler, Hoggan, was not satisfied with this however, and wanting to leave his mark on history, shot Ulic in the back, killing him.

Strange though, after this, dispite being "Blinded" to the force, he "Vanished into the light", a feat known only to a true Jedi master, I don't know what "Vanished into the light" is supposed to mean, but I figure its the same thing master yoda did.

it looks great but who is the krath?

Krath! Awesome. Nice job, looking forward to this map. That Krath skin is nice as far as I can see

Nice, But what is a Krath?

Thanks everyone.

I like that Exile of Ulic idea. Would it still be cay vs. ulic? I don't think that's historically correct though, but would make for a better battle.

I haven't even touched the lighting yet, I'll get to it.

EDIT: Now I've touched it:

Oooh, Very nice with the lighting.

I'm not sure, but I think Ulic killed Cay in battle, just before he was blinded to the force, I'd have to check, but the book is right here... Somewere.
However, I've never been one to really care about cannon that much... Infact, not at all.
I just posted it for random edification.

Edit: for heros, (if you followed cannon, but again, I don't care.) you could use Ulic, just very strong in ways other then the force. or Vima, as his apprentace.

This whole thing could be before Nomi, and them come for him, and its just the Krath attack Rhen Var, and Ulic or Vima offers to help the republic.

for the Krath side... Random Sith Mage?

Just wondering, are you going to have a regular CW or GCW mode?

Yes, the clone war era will be all shipped sides. It will be when anakin discovers Ulic's spirit in order to defeat the dark reaper.

Thanks Caleb, I studied the article about Ulic, I don't think my map would fit in with the chronology. When Ulic was on Rhen Var, he was stripped of his powers and wasn't with the Krath. But whose to say he was never on Rhen Var before that (making it up)

So I'm thinking this is just a random encounter between
Ulic (dark side) and Nomi ??

Grievous?

More so the Magna Guard than Grievous.

Those new pics look stunning!

Is that a city square kind of thing?
Looks a bit..... empty.........

Great job with the lighting, though!

Thank you! Trust me it's not empty, in a raging battle, the main courtyard becomes filled with troops. And there's plenty of content all around the place.

The clone wars era is very fun, it has the feel of a movie or something, I'll try to capture the essence of it in a pic.

Do you plan to add more Modes like Darth_Maul did in his Way of the Jedi WIP ?

Please not only krayth/old republic.Add a mode with Clones /CIS .
Rhen Var is one of my mostly loved planets and your map looks very yery cool.
:duel:

Thank you. There's a clone/cis as well (it's actually more fun than the kotor one).

I added a secret area, now I need to put something in it I'm thinking about having the soul of Ulic coming back as those blue ghosty-jedi things. Perhaps I can figure out a way for him to spawn when you enter a region.

Thats very good.What are the Heroes for CW?

A secret area with a special is ever welcome.

Nice, it's been a while since I saw a new Rhen Var map.
