Mendilos: Polar Regions by MetroidNut takes place on an unknown planet (likely called Mendilos) which has a very snowy environment much like Hoth and now the Imperials and Rebellion must take control of this important fictional planet so it may serve its purpose in the grander scheme of things for that particular side. I TAKE NO CREDIT FOR MAKING THIS MAP. ALL CREDIT GOES TO METROIDNUT ALONG WITH ANYONE CREDITED IN THE README.
DESCRIPTION IS FROM THE README:
Mendilos: Polar Regions v1.1 (v1.0 was a private release, if you’re wondering)
By: MetroidNut
DESCRIPTION
A medium-large open map taking place in a frigid valley. The CIS and Rebels get three AATs, and the Republic and Imperials get four Fightertanks (the number difference is for balancing purposes). A base on the west end of the map allows for a bit of close-quarters combat.
SIDES
Heroes – most Hero Assault units, as well as the Conquest heroes for the Republic, CIS and Empire, are custom.
Republic – Jet Trooper has been given an increased-accuracy shotgun with only two shots per magazine. Engineer’s shotgun has been replaced by a powerful carbine with low projectile speed, and thus lower effective range. Commander has been replaced by an ARC trooper with a terribly accurate three-round-burst battle rifle.
CIS – Super Battle Droid replaced with Droid Rifleman. Magnaguard replaced with Heavy Super Battle Droid (slow-moving, but a fair bit of health and extremely powerful weapons).
Empire – Dark Trooper has been given the Phase II Jet Trooper’s model, as well as the same shotgun as my Republic Jet Trooper. Engineer’s shotgun has been replaced by an SMG. Imperial Officer replaced by Stormtrooper Officer, wielding a single-shot rifle with similar characteristics to the Republic and Rebel battle rifles.
Rebellion – Bothan Spy has been replaced by Rebel Officer with a battle rifle.
STORY
In mid-20 BBY, the CIS invaded the peaceful, primitive world of Mendilos. Given the planet’s strategic location behind Republic lines, the Jedi Council ordered the nearest legion to take it back. This was the 144th Legion (made up by me, in case you didn’t guess), but its Commander – Dak – was on a special mission elsewhere. Thus the legion was put under the temporary command of the nearest Clone Commander – Bly.
In the frigid artic regions in the north of the planet Mendilos’, the Republic expeditionary forces touched down, hidden in a blizzard. Once it had subsided, they began pushing south, where they were met by a force of CIS droids.
Fifteen years later, a rebel enclave had gained traction on Mendilos, and Moff Koland – following in Bly’s footsteps – brought the forces under his command to crush the rebels.
