To show you some 'pictures': Two gameplay videos.
All is work in progress! All Icons are placeholder. All variables have a value for testing purpose only.
Be aware that in this video Mon Mothma has a negative diplomatic value, in other words, she works for the Empire.
What can be seen in the first video?
I'm starting a Galactic Conquest. First I'm demonstrating economy. Each mine/refinery combination makes a one-time contribution of 50 units to the maintenance pool. Raw material, which is not refined at once is displayed in the top left corner. Below refined material per cycle is shown. Then you can see a short glimpse of the unit building panel.
Next I'm sending the occupation troops off the planet. Because population support for the Rebels has dropped below 50%, there is an uprising shortly afterwards. (An info screen pops up.) During the uprising buildings disappear due to sabotage by insurgents. The last unit of occupation troops becomes a victim too.
Then there is a cut, starting situation restored. Mon Mothma travels to Geedon V and persuades the inhabitants to support the Empire. The planet joins the Empire. Here you can see a little bug (two Mon Mothma - for a short time). But this is already fixed.
And now the link: Pre Alpha Video 1 - Diplomacy
Second Video: Transport
Ground troops don't come with transport ships when they are build. So, they can't travel to other planets. They have to be loaded onto starships, the same apply to space fighters without a hyperdrive.
For understanding the video, you have to know the transport capacity of the Mon Calamari Cruiser. The MonCal can load one army regiment, one fighter squadron, one bomber squadron and additionally one fighter or one bomber squadron. Squadrons without a hyperdrive are preferred during the loading procedure.
To the Video: Pre Alpha Video 2 - Transport
01.Dec.06Today the English part of the Rise of Rebellion Website gone online.
At present, important areas are the News, the Links and the Features. Later on the FAQ - if such question occur.
All other areas are accessable, but do not contain relevant information. Eventually, the Database and the Features are going to play an important roll in interaction with the modification, since then they become some kind of Online-User-Manual.
An now, have fun!
