"Give me liberty, or give me dauntless" an inspiring ideal that we should all strive to uphold.
I love that you've put more and more dry humor in your videos as time has gone on. You do amazing hard work, but it's also just fun to hear you chat and joke about star wars
13:45
The more the mod changes, the more it stays the same. Like Delvardus suicide charging Veers into an early grave.
This actually bugs me as I can never get him as any other Imp faction. With some luck that'll change in 3.3 and if not, well, there's always next time. It's basically the only thing I can gripe about regardless, I absolutely love Corey's EaW mods.
@@MCAVersteegNL Especially since playing Eriadu is pretty much an Empire challenge run.
I’ll bet! I waited till week 20 to run over Delvardus and both his ships didn’t last long. I was hoping he’d come back in Knight Hammer but Daala’s got that. She never attacked Yavin and I never got to Champions of the Force her. Disappointing.
@@magosmarechferracioli1128 Eriadu just feels like easier empire to me, at least on known galaxy maps. If you wipe out the rebels in the south fast, you’re pretty much chilling on all fronts and can throw big shit at anything in your way
@@Theology.101 My problem with him is he has like two PD-options and zero carriers.
Gotta love how if you take the core as the Republic by era 4 you just end up with you and the Pentastar Alignment left in the galaxy.
This overview is great, it actually makes me want to give the game another shot
The game is amazing, if it proves difficult for you, play a "from the ground up game" on the easiest setting. Help you understand the game better.
Had a great time playing with the NR recently. Leia is my favorite leader late game. With her +1 influence on all planets you can basically place tax collection on all of the planets in your backline with a senators office.
so happy to see your faction guides continued, i noticed you have the Everything you need to know; title similar to the other faction guides, not sure if you want to include the post-script of-Thrawn's Revenge Faction Guide if only so that they're all searchable by "faction guide" keyword.
1:15 I dunno. I've seen the AI make some pretty devastating fleets centered around five or six home one types lol
It's not that it *never* works, but it's the least efficient thing to do
The mod AI doesn't spam certain ship types as bad as in the vanilla game though. I once had an Empire galactic conquest where the Alliance suddenly appeared with a fleet including 90+ assault frigates 😂
@@199512Lars 👀👀👀👀😳😳😳😳😳😳
@@199512Lars I've had certain runs where, I kid you not, I went to attack Kuat, the last planet the Empire controlled.
I'm not kidding you, they had 12 Acclimator Class Assault Ships, and 100 Tartan Patrol Cruisers.
Yeah, but if you stack 2 home ones into an impenetrable wall and then dauntlesses behind said wall, it’d be infinitely more dangerous
I forgot how good Thrawns Revenge looks. You and the team should be proud 🥲
The best unit is the Rebel boarding shuttle. If not for how awesome capping awesome ships are, it's the hilarious dialog when you click on them or when they're about to die I end up laughing 🤣
They also legit are the best unit in the game. If you keep mon mothma early on, they can pay themselves off really quickly.
Just want to say, if Disney makes a new game, whoever they contract with needs to get you and your mod team involved, I love Thrawns Revenge. You guys turned a mediocre game into a phenomenal classic!
Base game is good too
This guide with Coolers addon mod to this Makes the New Republic one hellva Faction.
Finally!!
I've been waiting this video for a long time
Been playing this mod for years now, and still love it. I still feel like the good ol' Assault Frigate MKI is really underwhelming. It always struck me as at least a cruiser type, but doesn't seem much better than destroyer level(best for ships smaller than it and not much else). Regardless, you guys are doing amazing work and absolutely love it!
It’s kinda redundant. Dauntless has double the DPS with turbo lasers. PLUS ion cannons. For double the population, so unless your flanking or need the little lasers (unlikely, as corvettes exist), they are always the worst option.
@@alexmadison6719 I wish you were wrong, but you're not. That's exactly right. The Dauntless is far better, and even the Liberty. Those, coupled with Neb-Bs and corvettes make the Assault Mk I pointless. And I really think that should be changed.
Dauntless my beloved
Love it corey great work keep it up on of these days it will win mod of the year. "For the New Republic"
Great video! Really enjoyed it, and was a great opportunity to show off the updated Mon Cal models, amongst others.
Would really appreciated a fall of the republic version of this. Especially for the Republic in different eras. Cheers Corey!
There is an FoTR Republic guide already
@@noahfriend320 Oh cool, thanks
11:15 Whenever I see these I can't help but shout "Lone Starr!!!!"
Although when I first saw the rocket symbol on the bombers I though it was a wrench. Their inclusion makes spotting bombers easier when not familiar with certain squadrons.
I love the home-one types
Oh yes, I love these videos.
One thing I will say about the bulwark-lll is that they can make for excellent choices for taking on SSDs when you do not have super Star dreadnoughts available. In the bacta wars story mission, I used three bulwarks to help take down Issard. Their sustained fire power makes them ideal for shredding through the high shield points of an SSD.
I mean 100 dp20s do the same and it's a sight to see
Go to hell you over sized triangle I have a turbolasers boat or rather an armada of them
I've been enjoying the NR overall(gave the mod another chance - at first it was too overwhelming, but I've warmed up to it a bit more), albeit the one quip I have with them is that moncal ship turbolasers feel too inaccurate vs how they're supposed to be lore-wise(at least for legends lore). The ships don't have smaller guns because the moncal ships have superior targeting systems rendering things like light turbolasers unnecessary. The problem this leads to is no good way to deal with corvettes; NR smaller ships feel like glass cannons that really need to be kept in the back at maximum range, which is fine vs pure capital fleets(which, I find, no faction ever builds anyways), but sending them to attack corvettes is insta-death.
That said, I really enjoy NR's ground game the most out of the factions I've played so far. The troopers are surprisingly strong, the A-4B's are better than AT-AT's and amazing for defending planets on the ground, and they've got some nice hit and run vehicles. Stacking heroes of endor is also a really nice touch and fun to do on infantry-heavy enemy planets. The MPTL is also interesting - not as good vs infantry as other artillery, but better vs vehicles and buildings.
Also, side question; is there any plan to fix maldrood's AI in recruit? It's way too aggressive compared to any other faction. This is easy to replicate, just play on recruit for a bit in any progressive GC and maldrood will swallow up the entire right half of the galaxy by week 30-40 every single time. Later in game, it becomes player vs maldrood as every other faction is too drained by maldrood's curbstomp to put up a fight, leading to a rather frustrating experience. I would play on a higher difficulty, but it's just too fast for me considering it's very difficult to anticipate enemy movements in this game.
As a new republic main, I agree with pretty much everything stated in this video. Though it is also worth pointing out that their later Era ships and especially the NCMP ships have better accuracy than normal; the NCMP ships in particular are about as accurate as one caliber lower.
Awesome!
Still waiting for greater maldrood guide :3
Yes I like this guide too
10:40 I like what you did there, with the Bulwark going down with the heavy carrier in the foreground, as you mention how they replace the former.
Thanks for the guide, Corey, looking forward to the rest!
For the New Republic!
How is the development of revans revenge going I'm super excited for that mod in particular I love that time period and I would love to see what all you do with it is there a rough estimate on how long we should be waiting for?
YeaH man thats some good shit
13:25 I love democracy.
Finally! I wanted to play a campaign as the New Republic but I would get absolutely crushed and only own about 5 systems.
Start with securing a path to sullust, clear out the south sector and slowly expand to the core and east. Forget about stuff in the north besides defensive stuff
8:48 you recorded description for Endurance while showing Nebula, but it's just a minor mistake
That's a lot of vehicles to keep in mind but reading doesn't bother me since I like figuring things out on my side, I'll learn the ropes.
"You don't want to spam home ones"
AI: How about I do it anyways
It's also worth pointing out that as far as I know, the BAC research is able to be triggered at any time in 3.2. not just Ear 3 onwards
I found myself abusing Nebula's with Mon Mothma SD. It feels like larping as Imperials which is pretty fun and a bit ironic lol
Ahh, so this mod actually makes you use your head. Finally.
I mean other mods are amazing too, but I want to actually use a fleet or strategy that is affective.
There are very few games that do this, but these games are majestic and amazing in function.
That aside now, how are you doing?
Rsd my beloved
2:47 Has the Marauder been changed to be a turbolaser fire-support gunship? I distinctly remember them shooting missiles
That's how it is in vanilla EaW. In the mod and other appearances it's always been turbolasers
Pretty sure it has always been turbo on thrawn's revenge
The missiles came from i think EaW and we know how ja my base game is for lore
I remember I used to make a fleet full of home one types in order to kill ssds
And what about assault frigates mk2? I liked this bulbous winged guys
Not currently in the mod but will be making an appearance in 3.3, the current indev version of the mod.
Please do this for all factions!!!!!
He has done 3 others so far
Came here to say the same thing!
And if there are others done - can there be a playlist with them together? Please and thank you!!
Great video
Would you consider making a GC map that akin to AotR where NR more or less only has frigates and no cruisers
They are making a mod about the rebellion vs empire period.
@@Littlemilkjug533 explicitly mean the post Endor period. Like AOTR there are still a few Capitol shops but it’s like 90% frigates
I kinda wanna try a No Mon Cal ships challenge with the New Republic. Basically just attempt to win a campaign without using a single Mon Cal designed ship. I don't know how possible or difficult it would be though
Is it fair that Sacheen frigate has no point defence system? If it's positioning as a anti-fighter frigate, then it should be expected to be protected from fighter's weapons including missiles and torpedoes?
It's not an anti fighter frigate though, like I said, it's anti ship. Point defense is given to ships with rapid laser cannons, the Sacheen doesn't have those.
Can Han Solo get the Mon Remonda upgrade on progressive maps?
Han Solo can be put into the Mon Remonda if you have an open command slot, go the the planet that he is at, then make him fill that open slot
wish you could issue odes while paused on tis game
I want spacebattles only hate the ground stuff😅
👏👍
While I congratulate the people who made this, which is absolutely incredible, I don't like how heavily they gutted the game to the point that it no longer resembles it's former self. What I simply want is a continuation of the original game that adds onto it, not changes it and how the game works, but simply adds new units, new planets, updates the models and graphics, etc. Unfortunately it seems that all the mods out there for Empire at War are determined to gut and fundamentally change the game completely.
The nice w
Thing with modding is you're free to make your own when the ones out there don't align with what you want. There are plenty of much smaller mods which have always been available as well, of course the large ones who have been going for over a decade are going to resemble the base game less.
To be frank, I do not enjoy playing the base game. I have no desire to make a mod which keeps the things I don't like about it.
Do fighters do more damage in this version? I've played earlier ones and fighters just seem to not be able to put out enough damage to make taking carriers worthwhile. Even hitting an ISD with 10+ squadrons of X-Wings/Light Bombers doesn't seem to be able to do enough damage to take down the shields without backup. Carriers so far haven't been worth it - even in late era stuff K-Wings (to me, at least) haven't really felt like they put out enough to make it viable. No real reason to use carriers.
Bombers were entirely redone in .3. the Nebula, as I say in the video, has very high damage. It is squishy, but if you position correctly that just means you're spending less pop on it that you can put elsewhere.
Awesome (on the bombers). Will have to try them again and the Nebula more effectively (sorry, accidentally deleted comment thank you for the response)
Why does the Majestic have those exotic PD guns? I didn't see anything in the lore for them, so is it just a gameplay choice?
They're in the lore for it.
@@CoreyLoses where?
Page 206 of Tyrant's Test. I believe even wookieepedia gives an exact page reference for it on its weapon breakdown for the ship.
@@CoreyLoses thx, I was blind
What? No MC30 or AFMK2? I am mildly disappointed.... But it makes sense as they were both GCW ships.
never works for me to recruit bothan assult cruisers
I really hope they fix the boarding shuttle save crash bug. I miss stealing whole fleets of Star Destroyers...
It's not a boarding shuttle save crash, the save crash is unrelated and of an unknown cause.
@@CoreyLoses I've found that it occurs after using the shuttle to capture many ships. I was thought that when certain ships were captured, that caused it to crash. At least that's what the thread on the steam workshop seemed to point to. I'm doing a Collosal map campaign right now and haven't used the shuttle at all. Seems to be working ok but I'll still get crashes. Though I think those are from too many units on screen. I had a crash last night after I got hit with a pentastar fleet with 46x Ton Falk carriers. I'm thinking there got to be too many fighters on the field.
Just started playing the mod a few days ago and have been really enjoying it thus far.
Is it just me or is Mon Mothma the worst Chief of State though? Her bonuses are just so bland
I've found Navik the Red really good early game for fortifying key shipyard worlds
Mon Mothma's bonus is one of the initial ones we did so it's got a little less to it, her and Leia will get some updates soon.
Really you didn't cover the New Republic spy network. If you look at your hero pool you have 6 infiltrators Han, Lea, Luke, Lando, Kyle. By blanketing planets you will know where ships are and what planet to attack.
ahsoka?
She's not around in this period in Legends
Is it just me or does the Corona look like a squashed version of the Event Horizon?
This is not any more a mod it is a different Game
God I wish the galactic level fleet movement was somehow turn based. As is it's just barely too much for me to keep track of properly.
I find that judicious use of pause does wonders.
pause the game
you can also turn the galactic game speed down in options in addition to pausing often
If you read the books (i.e. the expanded lore) you realize that the New Republic was as bad or worse than the old one. Riddled with bureaucracy and corruption where too many senators basically made the senat inoperable. Wo in the end if you really think about it: if Palpatine wasn't evil to even a comicqlly point and his empire xenophobic without reason then the Empire would be a much more effective and efficient governing system. As Cicero said, every bad government type is destined to be replaced by a good/efficient one: first you have a monarchy which becomes eventually a dictatorship, then the nobles and rich people of the country, state etc. get rid of the system because the homd much power, it then becomes an aristocracy which lead to an oligarchy, which in turn is overthrown by the masses because they are sick of being exploited, it then becomes a democracy which then leads to anarchy after which people are longing for a strong man to lead and unity after which it becomes a monarchy again. Palpatine skipped the monarchy part pretty much but you can't deny that a monarchy would be far more efficient than the clusterfuck that they called New Republic in the end
Ok authoritarian kid
@@legendairenic6247 Kid he says to a 30 year old just because my view differs from his. As you like. You are free to voice your opinion on the matter
How do you rotate the fucking camera?!? I've been playing for 4 days and it's pissing me off that I don't know
If you want to play as being a TARGET play as the republic their ships stink when it comes to combat. Rebel ships are just target practice but whenever they get a buff them people complain republic is hard and they get nerfed. I'm thinking a sub mod is need to bring the ship on par with the empire so player v player do able. MC90 with no heavily lasers weapons ....really.
They literally are in The same balance tier as imperial ships on the same weight class people just throw them against heavier ships or bigger numbers and say they are bad
What are you smoking the New Republic is so strong
@@legendairenic6247 im not talking about galaxy mode where you form what ever fleet im talking about skirmish mode.
@@kR-qj7rw im not talking about galaxy mode where you form what ever fleet im talking about skirmish mode.
@@My2CentsYall they literally have the same stats in skirmish
It's just there the aincan just pop up whenever right next to you
To be honest, the "bringing the democracy back" kind of discouraged me to play the NR even more, that's literally one of the worst political systems when it comes to dealing with rapid changes to the situations so why restore it.
