Default Re: Star Wars?

Big problem with these "theme" mods is that you have to do a LOT more work to generate a believable mod -- i.e. it's more work than just a single AT-AT icon.

Star Wars is also frustrating because while there's been a lot of lore created (Imperial Sourcebook gave details on a lot of stuff), the ground units never really got the attention they demanded.

Fundamentally though; Star Wars is better served by a Close Combat / Silent Storm type game that focuses on infantry modeling; because the kind of combat simulated in Steel Panthers (multiple companies fighting on a 1-2 km front) is rare as heck in SW.
