introduction

WHAT IS EMPIRE AT WAR?

From the dirt of the battlefield to the depths of space, STAR WARS: EMPIRE AT WAR puts theepic struggle for control of the galaxy at your fingertips. You will take command of eitherthe burgeoning Rebel Alliance or the oppressive Galactic Empire. As the ultimate galacticcommander, you must construct your army and strategically deploy your forces through-out the galaxy to conquer each every enemy controlled planet. Wage war on land and in space.STAR WARS: EMPIRE AT WAR’S action is persistent, meaning that strategic decisions on theGalactic Map and results from previous battles will have a lasting impact on the galaxy.Your space forces in orbit over a planet can reinforce your fleets in the heat of battle orassist in ground assaults. You can also choose to retreat from any battle, regroup yourforces, and return better equipped in the future.There are three different ways to play STAR WARS: EMPIRE AT WAR. Each way focuses on adifferent method of capturing planets and offers a unique play experience.

CAMPAIGNPlay as the Empire and conquer the galaxy or choose the Rebels and liberate it. The choiceis yours as you play through a series of epic story-based missions on land and in space.Your forces will be small at first, but as you progress through the campaign more of thegalaxy will become yours to command, including new planets, technologies, and heroes.If you want to experience the exciting events leading up to Star Wars: Episode IV fromthe perspective of the Empire or the Rebels, then this is the game mode for you.

GALACTIC CONQUESTConquer the galaxy your way! Choose from several different starting scenarios thatinclude galaxies of different sizes, technology levels, and starting credits. This freeformgame mode offers an open-ended experience that includes all the elements from the storycampaign, allowing you to create your own extraordinary scenarios to decide your pathto victory. This game mode can be played against the computer or a human opponent.

SKIRMISH BATTLESConquer a single battlefield in one intense battle. Skirmish battles are shorter conflictsfought either on land or in space and always between two teams. In this mode all resourcegathering and construction will take place on the battlefield itself, since there is no persist-ent Galactic Map. You can play this mode one on one against a human opponent, or witha combination of up to seven human or CPU opponents. Players on a team cooperate tosecure victory. Skirmish mode offers a familiar experience in the style of many classic real-time strategy games, but with a focus on fast-paced action.

HOW DO YOU PLAY EMPIRE AT WAR?

Campaign and Galactic Conquest game modes are played from three different but connected views of the battlefield:

GALACTIC MAPIn the Galactic Map you have control over all of your fleets, armies, and planets. Thisis the primary game mode where building and unit construction takes place, income isgathered, and your global strategy is planned. To move your forces to other planets,grab and drag them to a slot on another planet. If your army enters a planet controlledby the enemy, a tactical battle will begin in space or on land. The attacker must con-quer both the space and the land map of a planet in order to take control of a system. Doing so earns instant credits and will get you closer to your goal of galactic domination.

SPACE TACTICAL COMBATWhen your space fleets encounter an enemy in orbit above a planet, a space tacticalbattle will be initiated. In space tactical combat, the attacking fleet must destroy thedefender’s entire enemy fleet and space station (if a station is present). Be aware thatyou cannot build any new units during a tactical battle. You will need to rely on shipsyou’ve built on the Galactic Map, and garrison units produced by your space stationsand destroyers. If the attacker is victorious, they will take control of the space above theplanet. The attacker may then launch an attack on the planet’s surface.

LAND TACTICAL COMBATIn land tactical combat, the attacking army must destroy the enemy’s base structuresand units. To do this you must land reinforcements from orbit above the planet withinthe radius of any friendly reinforcement point. As in space, be aware that you cannotbuild new units during a tactical battle. The attacker can only reinforce with existingunits built on the Galactic Map. Military structures will allow the defender to purchasebonuses for their units and provide a steady supply of Garrison Units to help defendthe base. While exploring the planet, your units may discover valuable structures that they can capture and control.NOTE ON SKIRMISH MODE: Skirmish play is a single tactical battle, and there is noGalactic Map. Unlike Campaign and Galactic Conquest modes, when playing aSkirmish game unit construction does occur during battle from the buildings that arepresent on the map. Each player receives a steady flow of credits but can increase theirincome by capturing strategic points on the map.

BUILDING YOUR FORCES

GALACTIC ECONOMYBuilding structures and units requires credits. Atthe end of each galactic day, you will earn cred-its from all of the planets you control. NOTE: You can store up to 10,000 credits foreach planet you control. You cannot earn morecredits than your planets can support.

BUILDING STRUCTURESIN SPACE

Select a planet, and then select the space pro-duction tab. Space stations are the primarystructures you will construct in space. You mayonly construct one space station per planet, butmost planets will allow you to upgrade your

space station as your technology level increases. Zoom in, or use the Structures filteron the Galactic Map to see the maximum space station level for the planet. In additionto the space station, two other slots for structures also appear in space. These can befilled with long range scanners that provide information on enemy movements, or grav-ity well generators that prevent enemy retreat. When construction on a space stationis complete, it will automatically be placed in orbit above the planet.NOTE: You can queue up five land and five space constructions per planet. You arecharged for the unit or structure when you add it to the queue. However, you can cancelconstruction of anything still in the queue by right clicking on it to receive a full refund.

BUILDING STRUCTURES ON THE GROUNDSelect a planet, and then select the land production tab. Each planet has between twoand eight land slots that you can fill with whatever combination of structures you like.Each structure that you build fills one slot. NOTE: Some planets, such as Bespin and the Vergesso Asteroids, do not have any landslots to build on. Planets destroyed by the Death Star can no longer be used to buildland structures.Some structures have prerequisites that must be met before they can be built. Refer to the TechTree tab in the droid advisor menu for complete information about structure prerequisites.Once you build a structure from the Galactic Map, it is automatically placed on theplanet in a strategic location. Structures cannot be moved once they have been built.As soon as construction is complete you will have access to the benefits provided bythe structure. To sell a structure, right click on its icon while zoomed in on the planet.

ZOOMING IN ON A PLANETTo see a detailed view of a selected planet, click on the zoom icon located on the galacticMini-Map, scroll the mouse wheel up, or double-click on the planet. In this view you haveeasy access to:4The three large areas for organizing space fleets which correspond to the three slots

visible in the zoomed out view. There is no limit to the size of a space fleet and theycan contain a combination of space and land units.

4The slots available for ground units: you are limited to only ten land units stationedon a planet at any one time.

4The slots for building ground structures (the number will vary depending on the planet).4Space Stations and other space structures4Planetary informationFrom the zoomed in view, click Planet Info for more detailed information about the plan-et’s advantages, history, weather, indigenous species, and terrain.Thanks to its detailed information, the zoomed in view is ideal for moving units betweenland and space, combining fleets, or beginning construction on a planet.

WHAT SHOULD I DO TO IMPROVE MY ECONOMY?

• Build more mining facilities on your planets to greatly increase their daily credit value.

• Take over planets by winning tactical battles for an immediate credit boost, andto add a new source of daily income.

• Capture planets connected by trade routes for increased profit.

• Take on missions that include a credit bonus.

• Deploy a smuggler to steal credits from an enemy planet.

• Sell unused units or structures by right clicking on their icon in the zoomed in view.

to reach distant planets that may be out of your range. If you control a route by cap-turing the connected planets, you gain a bonus to your credit income.

COMBINING UNITSYou can combine units by dragging one friendly icon over another. Combine fleets tomake them larger and more powerful. You can separate fleets in the zoomed in viewby dragging some units into one of the other two fleet slots above the planet. NOTE: You can combine ground and space forces in your space fleets, but only groundunits can be used on a planet’s surface. Ground units in a space fleet will ride aboard lightlyarmored transport ships that are vulnerable to attack and cannot contribute to the battle.

SPECIAL ABILITY SLOTSSome units have special abilities that allow them to perform special actions on enemyplanets. For example: Smugglers can steal credits from enemy-controlled planets whenmoved into the steal slot located on each planet. Bounty hunters can neutralize enemyheroes without engaging in tactical combat.

RAID PARTIESA Rebel fleet consisting of four or fewer ground units, any number ofheroes, and no space units is a raid party. Raid parties are able to bypassenemy fleets in orbit and land on the surface of a planet directly, skippingspace combat entirely. Only the Rebel Alliance can use Raid parties.

STEALTH FLEETSStealth fleets can be moved to an enemy planet without initiating a tac-tical battle. Stealth units can be used to spy on enemy planets, or insome cases steal credits or technology.

TACTICAL BATTLE VIEW

A real-time, tactical battle occurs whenever you enter space or land territory that iscontrolled by enemy forces.

ATTACKING VS. DEFENDINGIn tactical battles, the defender initially has the advantage. The defender can upgradehis troops during battle at friendly structures, and use defensive emplacements to holdoff the enemy. If the defender has built military structures on the planet’s surface, he willbe rewarded with garrison troops from these facilities to aid in the planet’s defense.The burden is on the attacker to bring the right units to carry the battle. The attackercan even the odds by finding secondary structures on the map that may provideupgrades, lift the fog of war, or provide friendly indigenous troops. If there are friend-ly bombers in orbit, the player can call for a bombing run to strike key targets.Neither the attacker nor defender can create new units or structures during a tactical bat-tle. Both must be prepared to make the most of what they constructed on the Galactic Map.

14

CREATING UNITS IN SPACE

Select a planet, then select the space productiontab. The upgrade level of the station will determinewhich units can be built. Space units are automat-ically added to one of the three large fleet areasabove the planet as soon as construction is complete.

CREATING UNITS ONTHE GROUND

Select a planet, and then select the ground pro-duction tab. The types of units that you can build are determined by the types of structuresyou’ve built on the planet, and your technology level. Once a unit is created it will beadded to one of the ten reinforcement areas on the planet’s surface. If a planet alreadycontains ten land units, any additional units will be placed in a space fleet.

CONTROLLING YOUR FORCES IN GALACTIC VIEW

ICONSUnits in galactic mode are represented by icons, located either on a planet or above it inspace. An icon representing multiple units will appear as a stack with the most powerfulunit on top. Any unit in orbit above a planet is known as a fleet. The more powerful thefleet, the taller the icon stack will be.

MOVING UNITSClick on a unit and drag it where you want to move. Units can only move to another plan-et that is within the orbital radius of the current planet, this appears as a green ring whenthe planet is selected. Fleets can jump between multiple friendly planets to reach a desti-nation, or use a hyperspace trade route to reach remote planets. Units occupy slots, rep-resented by the ovals on or near planets. Simply drag a unit to the slot you want to occupy.

COMBATCombat occurs when a force is moved into the same orbit as an enemy fleet, or broughtto the surface of an enemy occupied planet. Once combat is initiated, you will have achoice to enter tactical mode, or allow the game to automatically resolve the conflict for you.The victor of the battle takes control of either the space above the planet or the surface.When both battlefields are conquered, the victor gains all advantages that the planet provides.NOTE: Auto-resolve is not available in Story Campaign—only in Galactic Conquest. Using Auto-resolve often results in the loss of many more units than if you had fought the battle yourself.

TRADE ROUTESPlanets with established Trade Routes are connected by a line. Trade Routes will allow you

WHAT DO SPACE STATIONS PROVIDE?

• The ability to build starships. Increase the Space Station level to get access to more advanced ships.

1 CONTROL PANEL

For more information regarding controlpanel functions, please refer to page 9.The tactical control panel differs in thefollowing ways:

Planetary Information Only the planet name is displayed during tactical combat.

Time Galactic time is frozen during tactical battles. No indication of timeor income is displayed during battle.

Population Cap The population capin tactical combat is different from galactic unit capacity.

• Space In space tactical combatyour population cap is fixed whenyou enter the battle. Different ships have a different impact on your population. For example, a Star Destroyer costs more popu-lation points than a TIE Scout. If you bring several of your large ships into the battle at once, you will reach the populationcap quickly.

• Land In land tactical combat the attacker’s population cap is tied to the reinforcement points they control. Each reinforcement point provides a population bonus. You must capture and holdthese points in order to increase the number of units you can bringto the battle. The defender’s pop-ulation cap is always 10. It is not tied to reinforcement points. For more information on Reinforce-ments, see page 18.

2 TACTICAL BATTLE MINI MAP

Friendly units are represented in green,while enemy units are red. Pirate unitsare yellow. The same color schemeapplies to structures, which appear asrectangles on the map. Reinforcementpoints concealed by the fog of war arerepresented by gray triangles, friendlyreinforcement points are green triangles,and enemy points are red. The locationof combat will flash red. Areas coveredby the fog of war are dark, while thearea your units can see is bright.

SPACE TACTICAL VS. LAND TACTICALAlthough the principles behind both tactical combat modes are the same, space and landdiffer on some key points.

Space Tactical Combat

• POPULATION CAP IS 20.

• REINFORCEMENTS CAN ENTER THE BATTLE IN OPEN SPACE.

• THE SPACE STATION IS THE PRIMARY STRUCTURETHAT MUST BE DEFENDED OR DESTROYED.

• CAPITAL SHIPS AND SPACE STATIONS ARE MADE UP OF HARDPOINT TARGETS, EACH OF WHICH CAN BE DESTROYED INDIVIDU-ALLY TO DISABLE THAT TARGET’S ABILITIES.

• NEBULAE AND ASTEROIDS PRESENT ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARDS.

Land Tactical Combat

• ATTACKER’S POPULATION CAP IS BASED ON THE NUMBER OF REINFORCEMENT POINTS YOU CONTROL.

• DEFENDER’S POPULATION CAP IS ALWAYS 10.

• REINFORCEMENTS CAN BE BROUGHT DOWN FROM SPACE AT A REINFORCEMENT POINT.

• THE PLAYER MAY NEED TO DEFEND OR DESTROY MULTIPLE BASE STRUCTURES THROUGHOUT THE MAP.

• WEATHER EFFECTS AND INDIGENOUS CREA-TURES PRESENT ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARDS.

• EITHER FACTION CAN CONSTRUCT OFFENSIVE OR DEFENSIVE EMPLACEMENTS AT BUILD PADS.

3 SPECIAL COMMANDS

A. SPECIAL ATTACK

Bombing Run (Land Only)During a land battle youcan take advantage of Y-wings or TIE bombers

in orbit by caling for a bombing run.

Ion Cannon(Rebels/Space Only)The ion cannon is con-structed on a planet’ssurface. It fires a blast

capable of disabling a capital ship in space.

Hypervelocity Gun(Empire/Space Only)The hypervelocity gun isconstructed on a planet’ssurface. It fires a power-

ful blast at enemy capital ships that canpenetrate most shields.

DEPLOYING REINFORCEMENTS

• Often not all of your units are on the battlefield when the battle begins.

• Whether you are in space or on the ground, you will need to bring in rein-forcements from your fleets.

• It’s a good idea to keep some units safe in the Reinforcement queue until they are needed.

• In Skirmish mode, you still need to deploy new reinforcements from your fleets, even though they are constructed during battle.

21

4In space battles, enemy fighters will have red fighter squadron icons which canbe targeted in this same way. Attacking enemy fighter units by right-clicking onthem will force your units to attack the entire squad of units.

4Attack-Move: Holding CTRL while right-clicking on the battlefield will commandyour units to move to that position, but also stop and attack any enemies theyencounter along the way.

ECONOMY IN TACTICAL COMBATIn Campaign and Galactic Conquest, you enter tactical combat with the same numberof total credits that you had on the Galactic Map. Galactic time stops during tacticalcombat, so you will not earn daily credits during the battle. You will have opportunitiesto spend credits during combat, so it is in your best interest to have some funds readyat all times in case you are attacked.

GAINING CREDITSYou can gain credits during combat by:4Capturing a resource facility.4Completing some secondary objectives.4Selling structures or build pad emplacements (right click).

PURCHASING UPGRADESThe defending faction can purchase offensive and defensive upgrades for their units atfriendly structures. To purchase, click on the structure then choose an upgrade from theproduction bar. Upgrades are persistent, so if you purchase an upgrade in one battle,and are attacked again, your units will retain the bonus in the next battle.If the attacking faction is able to locate a Mercenary Outfitter on the map, they too willbe able to purchase upgrades for their units.

USING BUILD PADSBuild pads are extremely versatile construction sites that either faction can capture.Click on a build pad near your units to purchase one of six emplacements.

Anti-Vehicle Turret: Automatically attacks enemy units. Very effective against vehicles.Anti-Infantry Turret: Automatically attacks enemy units. Very effective against infantry.Anti-Aircraft Turret: Automatically attacks enemy units. Very effective against aircraft.Bacta Healing Station: Heals friendly infantry units within its radius.Repair Station: Repairs friendly vehicles within its radius.Sensor Node: Pushes back the fog of war a great deal, improving your visibility.NOTE: In addition to their primary function, all build pad emplacements count asfriendly units, and therefore clear the fog of war in their immediate vicinity. They donot count toward your population cap, so they are a great way to add firepower andsupport without increasing the size of your army.

THE DEATH STARWhen the Empire brings the Death Star into a space battle there will be a countdownat the top of the screen until it is in range. While the Death Star approaches the plan-et the Empire must fight the space tactical battle. Once in range the Death Star can fireat will and completely destroy the planet’s surface. After a planet has been destroyed,its land tactical map is eliminated from the galaxy. However, the space tactical map willremain as an asteroid field.The Rebels can only counter the Death Star by winning a space tactical battle againstthe Death Star, while Red Squadron is in their fleet.

GROUND COMBAT FEATURES

REINFORCEMENT POINTSReinforcement Points are tactical positions that increase the owner’spopulation cap and allow reinforcements to land. You must eliminateall nearby enemy units and then have at least one infantry unit near theReinforcement Point hologram until it turns green. Only infantry unitscan capture Reinforcement Points. Once you have control, you candrag units from the reinforcement queue to anywhere within Reinforcement Pointradius. This range is designated by a green circle around the reinforcement point. INFANTRY UNITSInfantry units are necessary for capturing reinforcement points. They are also able totake advantage of natural cover on some terrain increasing their offensive and defen-sive capabilities. Most infantry are able slip by anti-vehicle weaponry, so you can usethem to reach objectives that may be inaccessible to your vehicles.WEATHERYour troops will have to deal with planetary weather. Weather effects cause the fol-lowing reductions in capabilities:

COMBAT FEATURES

SECONDARY OBJECTIVESIn tactical combat your goal is to defeat your enemy, but in many situations secondaryobjectives will be available that can be extremely rewarding. Whenever possible, try toincorporate the secondary objectives into your strategy to get the most out of the tactical battle.

SPACE COMBAT FEATURES

REINFORCEMENTSReinforcements can be dragged from the queue intoareas where your units have already cleared the fog ofwar. Reinforcements cannot be deployed in AsteroidFields, Nebulae, Ion Storms, or near enemy bases. SHIELDSMost ships have shields in addition to their armored hull.Shields are represented by the blue bar just above theunit’s health bar. Shields regenerate over time. Certainweapons can bypass shields to damage the armored hulldirectly.STARSHIP HARDPOINTSThe larger ships and space structures are made up ofindividual components, called hardpoints, which can betargeted. These may include weapons, shields genera-tors, or engines. Destroying one of these will cause thatcomponent to cease functioning.

SPACE HAZARDS

ASTEROID FIELDSWhile small ships can avoid damage from asteroids,larger ships entering into an Asteroid Field will takedamage over time.

NEBULAEAny ship entering a Nebula or Ion Storm will not be ableto use any special abilities. In addition to preventingspecial ability use, Ion Storms will disable shields.

NOTE ON SKIRMISH PLAY

ECONOMYIn skirmish games, you slowly gain credits over time. You can increase the rate of cred-it production by capturing mining build sites and resource pads.

BUILDING UNITSUnlike Campaign or Galactic Conquest, in Skirmish mode you construct units during thetactical battle. To construct a unit, select a structure and choose a unit to build from theproduction bar. When unit construction is complete the unit will be added to the reinforce-ment queue. To bring the new unit into the battle, drag it from the queue like any rein-forcement.

TECHNOLOGY LEVELTo increase your technology level in Skirmish battles, click on your command center andchoose the technology level upgrade. This applies to both the Empire and the Rebels. Asyour technology level increases, new units and upgrades become available at your structures.

SAVING AND LOADING THE GAMEYou can save or load the game at any time by pressing the main menu button, or theESC key, and choosing Save Game or Load Game. The game will also autosave period-ically to retain your progress.

24

TERRAIN OBSTACLESSome terrain is impassable by most units, such as trees, water, and cliffs. Hoveringunits, however, can travel over water, and flying units can travel over all terrain.

GOOD GROUNDInfantry units can take advantage of strategically defensive areas on the map by activat-ing their Take Cover ability. Units enhanced by their position on Good Ground will appeargreen and receive a bonus to their offensive and defensive abilities.

INDIGENOUS FORCESMany planets are home to various indigenous species. Some of the intelligent life formswill be friendly toward your faction, allowing you to take control of them and use them asyour own. Others may be friendly to your enemy, or hostile to all factions. For more infor-mation, see Indigenous Forces, page 55.

GARRISON UNITSIn campaigns and scenarios, many structures on land and in space automatically producegarrison units. These are bonus units that are not affected by the population cap. When agarrison unit is destroyed, the structure produces a replacement. Garrison units are notproduced in skirmish games. (See Garrison Units chart in Appendix on page 47.)

SPECIAL STRUCTURESMany planets feature structures that either faction can claim. Controlling these structures canbe the key to controlling the map. For example, finding a sensor array will completely dis-pel the fog of war, allowing you to see all your enemy movements. Capturing a turbolasertower will allow you to obliterate enemy vehicles from a great distance.

IMPERIAL STRUCTURES

IMPERIAL SPACE STATIONThe Imperial Space Station serves as an orbital defense platform for a star system andmanages the construction of ships at Imperial orbital shipyards. During battle the spacestation will defend itself by producing TIE fighters and firing turbolasers, ion cannons, andproton torpedoes at the enemy.

GRAVITY WELL GENERATORThis space structure denies Rebel fleets the ability to tactically retreat from a space bat-tle once it has begun, allowing the Empire to destroy their entire force.

MAGNAPULSE CANNON (Kuat Drive Yards KDY m-68 PlanetaryMagnapulse Cannon)This cannon lobs plasma balls at enemy vehicles causing massive electrical disturbancesthat disable the target for a time.

RESEARCH FACILITY (Corporate Sector Authority Res-a TechnologyCenter)This Research Facility is used by the Empire to develop new technologies supporting thewar effort.

IMPERIAL BARRACKS (Delvin Constructs Model MilBar C-427)The Imperial barracks can house several companies of Stormtroopers and scout troopers.

IMPERIAL OFFICER ACADEMY (Delvin Constructs Model Edu-A-34 )New space and ground officers are trained here before being sent off to command troopsin battle.

IMPERIAL LIGHT VEHICLE FACTORY (Delvin Constructs Model Fac L-113)These factories initially produce AT-STs, but can be retro-fitted to handle the productionof 2-M Repulsor Tanks and TIE mauler.

IMPERIAL HEAVY VEHICLE FACTORY (Delvin Constructs Model Fac H-121)The Heavy Factory was designed to construct the middle-range walkers including theSPMA-T and the AT-AA.

IMPERIAL ADVANCED FACTORY (Delvin Constructs Model A-Fac 333)The Empire’s Advanced Factory constructs AT-AT walkers and SPMA-T artillery.

FLEET COMMANDERFleet Commanders improve the combat health and sight range of all space units undertheir command.

FIELD COMMANDERField Commanders improve the combat health and sight range of all ground units undertheir command.

BOUNTY HUNTERFor a price, Bounty Hunters will track down fugitives and eliminate heroes without initiat-ing a tactical battle. On the Galactic Map, drag a Bounty Hunter to the neutralize heroslot beside a planet and pay the fee to take advantage of their services.

SMUGGLERTo steal credits from an enemy planet, drag a smuggler on the Galactic Map into the stealcredits slot beside a planet. At the end of each Galactic Day you will receive credits fromyour smuggler on the enemy planet.

SWAMP SPEEDER (Infantry Support Platform Speeder)The Swamp Speeder is a repulsor lift vehicle that can travel over water. Its sensors allowit to hunt units wherever they may be on the map.

SKIFF BRIGADEThese fast moving vehicles make short work of enemy infantry and can be used to sup-plement your scouts.

IPV (IPV 1 Imperial Patrol Vessel)These lightly armored pirate cruisers can enhance their weapon power to destroy enemy fighters.

PIRATE ASSAULT FIGHTERThese well shielded fighters are ideal for neutralizing enemy bombers, but lack the fire-power to counter larger ships.

PIRATE INTERCEPTOR FRIGATEAdd these ships to your fleet to counter enemy corvettes and fighters. Boost their weaponpower to do maximum damage to enemy craft.

SPECIAL STRUCTURES

These special structures may be used by either the Empire or the Rebellion.

POWER GENERATORPower Generators keep communications arrays, base shields, turbolaser towers andmining facilities functioning, and are are built automatically at your base.

SHIELD GENERATOR (CoMar Weapons SLD-14 Shield Generator)Shield Generators prevent orbital bombardments and energy attacks directly on thebase it protects. It does not prevent enemies from entering. Shield Generators requirea power generator to operate.

MINING FACILITY (CMC-22 Mining Facility)The Mining Facility can extract almost any precious resource as raw material. Thesebuildings provide a substantial boost to credit income.

TURBOLASER TOWER (Taim & Bak XX-10 Turbolaser Tower)The XX-10 is a surface weapon that will automatically track and fire at enemy units. It ishighly effective against vehicles, but inaccurate when targeting smaller infantry units.

COMMUNICATIONS ARRAY (MicroThrust ProcessorsCommunications Array)The Communications Array transmits battlefield information and radar locations tothe troops, revealing more information on the mini-map.

ORBITAL LONG RANGE SCANNER (Loronar Corporation OLR Scanner)The Orbital Long Range Scanner detects ships in hyperspace over many light yearsdistance providing advance warning of approaching enemy fleets.

CANTINASmugglers and Mercenaries are often found here. Cantinas can only be built onAbregado-rae, Atzerri, Corellia, Nal Hutta, Ryloth, and Tatooine.

MISSILE DEFENSE SATELLITE (Corporate Sector Authority Md-12Satellite Platform)The Missile Defense Satellite is armed with missile launchers that target mid-sizedships, causing a considerable amount of damage.

40 41

LASER DEFENSE SATELLITE (Corporate Sector Authority Ld-12Satellite Platform)Armed with laser cannons, it can tracking and fire upon fighters and smaller ships.

ASTEROID MINING FACILITY (Corellia Mining Corporation CMC-A14Mining Facility)These facilities found in asteroid fields substantially increase credit income.

MERCHANT SPACE DOCKSpecial space units can be purchased from these small orbital stations during skirmish battles.

RESOURCE PAD (Corellia Mining Corporation CMC-RP05 Resource Pad)Both the Rebellion and the Empire use Resource Pads to quickly mine raw materials to selloff for credits. They are not as efficient as full-sized Mining Facilities.

ABANDONED HEAVY FACTORY If you capture this structure you can use it to produce heavy vehicles for your faction.

ABANDONED SENSOR ARRAYCapturing a sensor array will reveal a great deal of information on the mini-map, includingenemy positions.

CREATURES

The galaxy is teeming with life, some friendly, some hostile. Creatures such as Wampas,the Sarlacc, rancors, and others may encounter your troops. Always keep them in mindwhen planning your strategy to avoid losing troops to a hungry creature during battle.

PIRATE FORCES

Pirates can often be found piloting a variety of ships and vehicles like frigates, fighters,and skiffs in addition to fighting as foot soldiers. They occasionally take control of planetsand establish asteroid bases and land bases. While not as well armed as the Empire or theRebels, the pirates are fierce combatants that will challenge either side for control of aplanet. You can take control of pirate technology by completing some missions, or by pur-chasing units at a pirate structure in a skirmish battle.

INDIGENOUS FORCES

Many planets have sentient species inhabiting them; they may decide to aid your forces.You can control friendly indigenous forces as though they were your own troops. Indigenousforces do not count toward the population cap. They make excellent scouts and advanceunits, and can be used for diversionary tactics as well. See page 55 for more information.

INDIGENOUS FORCE STRUCTURESIndigenous structures automatically generate indigenous troops each time a group isdefeated. The structure will continue to generate troops until it is destroyed.

New features & Changes

The Zann Consortium Faction (Underworld)A wretched hive of scum and vi l lainy, the Consortium lies, cheats, bribes, kidnaps, extorts, steals and fights to achieve victory. Led by Tyber Zann, the Consortium’s goal is not to conquer the entire galaxy, but to own it. The Consortium employs ships and vehicles never before seen in the Star Wars universe. They use outlawed black market technology and spread their web of corruption throughout the galaxy.

Consortium Story CampaignForces of Corruption offers an all new story-driven campaign that fol lows the exploits of criminal genius Tyber Zann and his rise to become the galaxy’s most notorious criminal leader.

CorruptionCorruption is a brand new game mechanic that gives the player a unique set of options to spread criminal influence throughout the galaxy.

The Consortium uses Defi lers to spread corruption. Defi lers can be recruited at any Consortium controlled planet with a Consortium Palace structure. Moving a Defi ler to the “Spread Corruption” slot of any enemy planet begins the corruption process.

There are a total of eight corruption options to choose from which vary depending on planets and prerequisites. The 3 most basic corruption options (Intimidation, Piracy and Kidnapping) require a special tactical mission while the others do not. The eight corruption options are as fol lows:

IntimidationIntimidation requires a special ground combat mission in which the Consortium goes to the planet specif ically to intimidate a senior planetary off icial.

Requirements: Credits available to expend on the operation and a Consortium hero.

Benefits: Permanently removes the special abil it ies of that planet.Unlocks the “Racketeering” corruption option.

PiracyPiracy requires a special space combat mission where the Consortium establishes piracy at a planet by eliminating a number of enemy space forces.

Requirements: Credits available to expend on the operation and a Consortium hero.

Benefits: New enemy ship type available for the Consortium to build and use in combat.Unlocks “Black Market” and “Slavery” corruption options.

KidnappingKidnapping requires a special tactical mission to capture a target.

Requirements: Credits available to expend on the operation and a Consortium hero.

Benefits: The Consortium receives a large sum of credits.Unlocks “Bribery” corruption option.

RacketeeringOnce unlocked, the Consortium can set up an extortion racket at a planet ensuring the right people get a cut of any action resulting from combat.

Requirements: At least one Intimidation mission completed. Mercenary Assault Squads available to commit and credits available to expend on the operation.

Benefits: The Consortium receives a larger stream of credits than normal.

BriberyOnce unlocked, the Consortium can establish a bribery ring with off icials at a planet for special favors and information.

Requirements: At least one Kidnapping mission completed and credits available to expend on the operation.

Benefits: Enemy bases no longer produce garrisons during combat.Consortium is alerted to enemy fleet movements at the corrupted planet and nearby systems.Unlocks the “Corrupt Mil it ia” corruption option.

SECTiON 2 NEW FEaTUrES & CHaNgES

� �

Corrupt MilitiaOnce unlocked, the Consortium can establish a mil it ia recruiting drive on the planet. This wil l cause the indigenous forces on the planet to fight for the Consortium.

Requirements: At least one Bribery mission completed and credits available to expend on the operation.

Benefits: Indigenous units ally with the Consortium during combat on that planet. If corruption is removed from the world, the planet wil l revolt and become neutral.

Black MarketOnce unlocked, the Consortium can establish a Black Market at a planet making all sorts of i l l icit technology available for purchase.

Requirements: At least one Piracy mission completed and credits available to expend on the operation.

Benefits: The Consortium can purchase outlawed technology for use as special abil it ies on combat units.

Slavery Once unlocked, the Consortium can force the local population at an enslaved planet to become combat units for the Consortium to use anywhere in the galaxy.

Requirements: At least one Piracy mission completed and credits available to expend on the operation.

Benefits: The indigenous population from enslaved planets can be recruited as combat units for the Consortium.

Corruption NotesThe Empire and Rebell ion are able to detect Consortium corruption and have the abil ity to remove it. However, both receive benefits from corruption such as cheaper production, faster build times and smugglers that do not time out when siphoning credits on corrupted worlds.

Removing CorruptionSome Empire and Rebel heroes can remove corruption at the Galactic level from affected planets. This is accomplished by dragging them to the “Remove Corruption” slot on a corrupted planet in Galactic mode.

SECTiON 2 NEW FEaTUrES & CHaNgES

The Black MarketThe Consortium accesses the Black Market to purchase outlawed technology for use in combat as special abil it ies or unit modes. The technology available differs between the Rebels and the Empire. The Consortium should establish a black market on both Rebel and Imperial worlds.

To access the Black Market, send Tyber Zann, Urai Fen or Silri to the “Buy” slot at a Black Market planet to purchase new technology. The Black Market Window wil l appear with an assortment of technology available for purchase. You wil l also see technology that is not yet available or has already been purchased.

NOTE – The price of Black Market technology varies in relation to the tech levels of the Rebell ion and Empire. It is also best to have more than one Black Market available in order to have a variety of technology available. To see a l ist of planets where the Black Market can be established at see page 30 for the Planetary Corruption chart.

Advanced Base LayoutThe Advanced Base Layout screen allows players to organize troops and structures by moving them into various tactical positions on the battlefield. Entering the Advanced Base Layout screen is not required. However, organizing your troops and structures strategically al lows for greater defense and tactics.

To view the Advanced Base Layout, cl ick on the “Base Layout” button above the ground unit slots while zoomed into a planet in galactic mode.

Using the Advanced Base Layout to Defend a PlanetTo move troops and structures, simply left-cl ick on the unit icon and hold, then drag and drop it to the desired location.

Using the Advanced Base Layout to Spy on Enemy BasesThe Advanced Base Layout can also be used to see where the enemy has placed its troops and base structures. You can only do this on corrupted planets. To spy on the enemy’s base layout, cl ick on the “Base Layout” button above the ground unit slots while zoomed into a corrupted planet.

NOTE – Both the Rebell ion and Empire can also use the Advanced Base Layout screen for defensive layout and spying as well. In order to use the Advanced Base Layout Screen for spying, the Empire must send a probe droid and the Rebell ion must send C-3PO and R2-D2 to the enemy planet.

Multiplayer UpdatesPlayers can now pit al l three factions against each other in three way faction battles or test their ski l ls f ighting the same faction against itself in Mirror Play. Players who are members of clans wil l now also be able to fight for their clan to attain the top slot on a new clan ladder! See page 26 for more details.

New Maps and Updated MapsThere are a variety of new skirmish maps available for space and land combat. Many of the older maps from Star Wars: Empire at War have also been updated and included as part of this expansion as well. The new skirmish maps can be found in the skirmish options screen and in the host game setup screen for multiplayer.

There are also 6 new galactic conquest campaigns unique to this expansion pack. The new galactic conquest campaigns can be found in the galactic conquest options screen and in the host game setup screen for multiplayer.

New UnitsIn addition to the new units that have been added specif ically for the Consortium, several new units have also been added for both the Empire and Rebell ion. For a complete l ist of new units see page 12.

Other UpdatesConsortium Technology ProgressionIn Galactic Conquest mode, the Consortium gains access to all ships, vehicles and units by upgrading their space stations and owning the appropriate base buildings on planets. Unlike the Rebell ion and Empire, the Consortium units do not initial ly have any special abil it ies unti l they are upgraded with the appropriate Black Market technology. In Skirmish mode the Consortium upgrades in the same way as the Rebell ion and Empire for balancing purposes.

Pathfinder SlotThe pathfinder slot is a gold box found in the top left corner of each fleet slot. The unit that is placed in the pathfinder slot wil l be the first unit to enter tactical battle. All remaining forces wil l need to be brought into battle via reinforcement.

SECTiON 2 NEW FEaTUrES & CHaNgES

OutpostsIn Skirmish mode, players can now capture Outpost Build Pads. When captured, Outposts have three building options available. Two of the options are shared between factions, while the third option is faction specif ic. They are as fol lows:

Mining Facility – Produces a fast credit income stream. They can also be upgraded to further increase the speed of credit income whereas Resource Pads cannot.

Hutt Palace – Allows the recruiting of several mercenary units that are not available to any faction. They are the Swamp Speeder, Pod Walker and Skiff.

Repulsorlift Jammer (Consortium) – Prevents enemy repulsorlift vehicles from operating by effectively sticking them to the ground. Consortium units are not affected.

Uplink Station (Rebellion) – Allows the Rebell ion to ping sensors on any area of the map to remove the fog of war. This lasts for a brief period of time.

Magnapulse Cannon (Empire) – A cannon that f ires blasts of plasma at enemy vehicles effectively disabling them for a brief period of time. Imperial units are not affected.

NOTE – Mining Facil it ies and Hutt Palaces are no longer free standing structures as they were in Star Wars: Empire at War and have been moved to the outpost as universal build options.

Orbital BombardmentPlayers can now call down an orbital bombardment during land battles, if they have capital ships in orbit above the planet. In land skirmish mode, orbital bombardments must be purchased at the player’s

RELIEF, TO ENFORCE THE TERMS HEREOF. THE PARTIES ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THE LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY IN THIS AND OTHER PROVISIONS OF THIS AGREEMENT AND THE ALLOCATION OF RISK HEREIN ARE AN ESSENTIAL ELEMENT OF THE BARGAIN BETWEEN THE PARTIES, WITHOUT WHICH LUCASARTS WOULD NOT HAVE ENTERED INTO THIS AGREEMENT. LUCASARTS’ PRICING REFLECTS THIS ALLOCATION OF RISK AND THE LIMITATION OF LIABILITY SPECIFIED HEREIN.

THIS WARRANTY GIVES YOU SPECIFIC LEGAL RIGHTS, AND YOU MAY HAVE OTHER RIGHTS DEPENDING ON THE LAWS IN YOUR STATE.

This Agreement is governed in all respects by the laws of the State of California as such laws are applied to agreements entered into and to be performed entirely within California between California residents, and you hereby consent to personal jurisdiction in California. This Agreement wil l not be governed by the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods, the application of which is expressly excluded. You and LucasArts each agree that any claim or controversy arising out of this Agreement or the Software shall be settled by expedited binding arbitration in accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration Association. Such arbitration shall take place in Marin County, California, and you waive any claim that such forum is inconvenient. Any such claim or controversy shall be arbitrated solely on an individual basis and shall not be consolidated with a claim of any other party. The arbitrator may not change the terms of this Agreement. The arbitrator may award injunctive or other equitable relief to enforce the terms hereof; provided, however, that no injunctive or equitable relief may be awarded that would enjoin or impair LucasArts’ rights or abil ity to distribute or otherwise market, advertise, promote or exploit the Software. If it is judicial ly determined that any claim or controversy arising out of or related to this Agreement or the Software cannot be settled by expedited binding arbitration as noted above, then you agree that any such claims or controversies shall be brought and maintained in the state courts located within the County of Marin, State of California or the federal courts of the Northern District of California, and you waive any claim that either such forum is inconvenient. The foregoing shall not preclude LucasArts from seeking any injunctive or other relief for protection of LucasArts’ intellectual property rights or similar rights in any court of competent jurisdiction. Because LucasArts would be irreparably damaged if the terms of this Agreement were not specif ically enforced, you agree that LucasArts shall be entitled, without bond, other security or proof of damages, to appropriate equitable remedies with respect to breaches of this Agreement, in addition to such other remedies as LucasArts may otherwise have under applicable laws. The prevail ing party in any action to enforce this Agreement shall be entitled to recover costs and expenses including, without l imitation, reasonable attorney’s fees. LucasArts shall have the right, but not the obligation, to defend or settle, at its option, any action or proceeding arising from a claim that your permitted use of the Software infringes or misappropriates any patent, copyright, or other ownership of a third party. You agree to provide LucasArts with written notice of any such claim within ten (10) business days of your first knowledge thereof and to provide reasonable assistance in the defense of such claim. LucasArts shall have sole discretion and control over the defense or settlement of such claim, unless it declines to defend or settle such claim, in which case you are free to pursue such course of action as you reasonably determine. LucasArts is under no obligation hereunder to indemnify or hold you harmless with respect to any actions, proceedings or claims. In the event of such a claim, or if LucasArts believes such a claim is l ikely, LucasArts may: (i) procure for you the right to continue using the Software; (i i) modify the Software so that it becomes non-infringing; or, (i i i) terminate this Agreement. You agree to comply with any court judgment or other conditions imposed on you or LucasArts as a result of an allegation of patent or copyright infringement (whether by court order, agreement or otherwise), whether or not such judgment or conditions contradict the conditions of this Agreement, including without l imitation, ceasing use of the Software.

If any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid or unenforceable, such provision shall be struck and the validity and enforceabil ity of the remainder of this

Agreement shall in no way be affected or impaired thereby and such provision shall be enforced to the maximum extent possible so as to effect the intent of the parties and shall be reformed without further action by the parties to the extent necessary to make such provision valid and enforceable. LucasArts’ fai lure to act with respect to a breach by you or others does not waive LucasArts’ right to act with respect to subsequent or similar breaches, nor wil l any single or partial exercise of any right hereunder preclude further exercise of any other right hereunder. This Agreement sets forth the entire understanding and agreement between you and LucasArts with respect to the subject matter hereof. Except as provided herein, this Agreement may not be amended except in a writing signed by both parties; provided, however, that LucasArts has the right, without notice and/or without a writing signed by both parties, to amend this Agreement in connection with any modifications or updates to the Software.

The l icense term shall commence as of the date you install or otherwise use the Software. You may terminate this l icense by disposing of the Software and erasing any components residing on computer equipment. Without prejudice to any other rights of LucasArts, this Agreement wil l terminate automatically if you fai l to comply with its terms and conditions. In such event, you must destroy all copies of the Software and all its component parts. Your disposal or destruction of the Software and any component parts must be done in accordance with applicable law. Except for the l icense granted herein and as expressly provided herein, the terms of this Agreement wil l survive termination.

If the Software is acquired under agreement with the U.S. government or any agency or instrumentality thereof or contractor therewith, it is acquired as “commercial computer software” subject to the provisions hereof, as specif ied in 48 CFR 12.212 of the FAR and, if acquired for Department of Defense (DoD) units, 48 CFR 227-7202 of the DoD FAR Supplement, or sections succeeding thereto.

Rules Governing New Levels: LucasArts is under no obligation to make any features in the Software that wil l al low you to create New Levels. If LucasArts determines, in its sole discretion, to make such features available, then the fol lowing wil l apply: “New Levels” are data that modify, add to, or substitute for data in the Software, thus modifying, adding to, or replacing levels provided by LucasArts in the Software, and may also include saved games, and scenarios created using the skirmish features of the Software.
