~Scorpinox Readme:
Return of the Clones: A Rebel to Republic conversion V1.3

by Darth Windu

This mod replaces the Rebellion with the Republic for EaW. Please note

that this is for EaW-only, I have no idea if it is compatible with FoC.



Why? Because I could mainly, but also because I love the Republic.

Known Issues:

-------------

- Republic Cruiser is the Corellian Gunship. I know, but unfortunately there are no models yet of the Cruiser, and the Gunship was the cloest to what the Cruiser looks like

- Empire doesn't tech-level-up. I have absolutely no idea why this happens
