what's new is old again ?
Hello I'm lorul1 creator of Battles of the Storm. Welcome to my Assault on Theed Alpha project for Star Wars Battlefront 2 2005 !!
Making Battles of the Storm was so much fun and hearing everyone reaction to size and scale of the battles was an awesome experance.
What made Battles of the Storm good was that you were a single unit placed in a 100+ vs 100+ battle and you really get a sense of all out WAR.
All out war is what I do best !!
-this is a new picture of the overhaul seen here :

After watching the alpha footage of battlefront 2 EA, I was impressed. Of course EA did well with graphics and sound design again. But the only problem that I saw with their Assault on Theed is that it didn't seem big enough ... it wasn't a war. When I think of the clone wars I think of the thousands of clones battling on Geonosis, or the hundreds of droids storming the beach of kashyyyk with so many laser and missiles everywhere. Star wars battles especially clone wars battles ARE over the top, chaotic , and have hundreds of clones. As of right now EA's Theed seem's ... empty. Which is why today you have the ability to play on my assault on Theed map with 100+ clones holding off and invasion of 100+ droids. This makes for over the top chaotic battles. I mean isn't that what an ASSAULT should look like ?
Hopefully EA will add an "XL" or "battlefield 1 operations" type mode at some point, but I the message to DICE and EA is that we want large scale clone wars battles JUST like we saw on TV and in the Movies ! We want to be IN the battles and that means chaos and scale (bigger maps and higher player and vehicle count).
I want as many people as possible to play this early alpha guys! If you have a friend who plays battlefront - share this map with him. Are you running a YouTube channel? PLEASE make a video to share with your viewers ! Does your mom play battlefront ? Tell her about It ! Does your pet fish like battlefront ? tell him too !! Lets spread the news everyone guys !!
KEEP IN MIND !!! - This is an UNFINISHED and UNSTABLE map. but once you get your hands on it and actually play the map just know in one more month the beta should (theoretically) be twice as good. I CAN NOT STRESS ENOUGH that I will literally be releasing an unfinished version of this map I'm making.
(but lorul1 WHY RELEASE UN UNFINISHED MAP ??? - Because I want people to play it before EA's Beta. This will also give people an opportunity to suggest ideas.)
GAMEPLAY
At the start of this map both teams (Republic and Separatist) Will start off by trying to take each other's command post.
At the same time as this conquest battle, a CIS MTT will be en-route to the Naboo Palace.
As the MTT moves past command post it will lock them for the Separatist pushing them forward toward the palace.
If the clones destroy the CIS MTT it is an automatic win. However, if the CIS defend their MTT for 15 minutes it will destroy the Nabbo palace and they take the victory.
GROUND TO SPACE is available in this map.

All BF2 Mods are compatible with PC only and
don't worry this one is not a 1.7 GB like battles of the storm was
Please note that there are TONS of YouTube videos on how to install battlefront 2 mods !
EVERY BF2 MAP is installed the same way - so a simple google search can help you if my instructions are unclear.
This map has a lot to it and probably requires a fair amount of power to play - if it is slowing down for you it is your PC's strength - not the map
