Battlestar Galactica: War of the Colonies is a mod for Star Wars: Empire at War - Forces of Corruption, created by BSG Modding team
Description:
The armistice had held for forty years. The Colonials had spent the time wisely, creating a huge fleet of vessels, including over 120 battlestars. Defence platforms and shipyards ring each of the twelve Colonies, sensor posts watch the demilitarized zone. The Colonial defences are on high alert after a back door was found in the recently installed CNP program, its existence revealed by the defected Cylon Caprica Six who betrayed her race for the love of scientist Gaius baltar. Their plan revealed, the Cylons had no choice but to launch an all out attack with everything they had, gathering all ships old and new.
Despite their preparations the Colonials still struggle against the sheer size of the Cylon attack. The wreckage of both Basestars and Battlestars alike litters space.
This mod aims to create a complete Battlestar Galactica experience, encompassing the scope of the entire second Cylon war. Take command of the Colonial Fleet or the Cylon armada and wage war on land and in space. Use cannons, missiles, rockets and nukes to destroy your foes.
Features:
Battlestars: Enormous battleship/carriers which carry squadrons of Vipers and Raptors inside their thick armoured hulls
Basestars: Missile armed carriers which can launch wave after wave of raiders, both light and heavy, to overwhelm the enemy with massed fire
Vipers: Agile fightercraft piloted by the best of the best
Raiders: Nimble fightercraft with numbers on their side
Nuclear missiles: Some units carry these deadly weapons in their silos, capable of crippling ships and wiping out whole squadrons of fighters
Colonial marine corps: Well trained professional soldiers with a range of vehicles and armour to back them up
Cylon Army: Legions of Centurions and a host of heavy armour to support them in their conquest of humanity
How to install:
If you are not a STEAM user then you should have the MOD Launcher program installed (You can find one here, or just search online. http://www.moddb.com/games/star-wars-empire-at-war-forces-of-corruption/downloads/foc-mod-launcher)
1) After unzipping the main zip file it will give you a folder named: BSGWC
2) This will give you several files and one sub folder: Battlestar Galactica Mod.bat, Installation Instructions.txt and Mods.
3) Open the folders Mods, BSGWC and you should see a "Data" folder.
4) Next navigate to your main Forces of Corruption installation (this is where your FoC main executable resides)
5) Drag and drop both the MODS folder and Battlestar Galactica Colonial Wars Mod.bat to your main FoC installation folder. If the MODS folder is already present then you will be required to overwrite the folder. However, any mods already installed will be fine and uneffected.
6) You can now run the mod using the .BAT file or using the MOD Launcher.
If you are a STEAM user then instead of using the .BAT file you can use the main steam library. Right click on Star Wars: Empire at War Gold and select properties, Launch options and type in swfoc MODPATH=Mods\BSGWC once you have done this just launch forces of corruption as normal.
If you wish to play the base game just delete the launch option.
If either of these methods are followed correctly then the mod should be fully usable.
UNINSTALLATION
1) If you installed the mod to the MODS folder just navigate to your FoC/MODS folder and delete the folder named: BSGWC
2) Next delete the Battlestar Galactica Mod.bat from the main FoC folder.
