[WIP][Server] Imperial Legion (Faction)

I asked cause he is the leader of the project, it was just to ask about it to someone involved

Technically nicb is the leader. Credit where it is due.

Nah all good. Yeah we'll look into colour differentiation more definitely. May come closer to when the roster is full as kiwi is in charge of icons and he's busy with a bunch of other things atm.

But i asked nicb not kiwi .

This is looking really nice. After watching some of the streams, I am impressed with how nicely polished the whole thing looks. Sure, there are a couple bugs here and there, but this is engrained within the PA experience. Keep up the excellent work!

So this mod isn't part of Ubers expansion. just a fan mod?

Yeah it's a mod, made by some of the best modders and artists, balanced by some of the best players and organized the best organizers in PA.

I'd much rather this group to make a faction over uber.

Yeah, what do you think mod means? Sorry, not trying to sound irritated but mod literally means fan-made.

I'm a little new to the entire mod thing. I'm usually a console person and haven't had time to get into the whole mods thing. Not to mention this legion mod is just too amazing i thought it was uber working on it.

How easy would it even be to install a mod? this would be the first time i even do something like this O_O

Easy, you just use PAMM.

Well firstly you cannot install it *yet* Legion is still being worked on so only a few players actually have it right now. It's getting close though.

Once it is finished, you can install it really easily using a community developped tool called 'PAMM' (PA Mod Manager) that allows you to install as well as manage all your mods from a nice GUI launcher. Detials about PAMM is here:

Once you have that installed you can browse what's available, and whilst legion isn't available yet, there are lots of other mods worth a look. @stuart98 produced an earlier expansion mod called 'Galactic Annihilation' that adds lots of new units into the game. There is also 'ModX' and plenty of others if you want to try new units and so on.

There are two types of mods for PA that you can get on PAMM. UI mods make changes to the interface (e.g. ability to make all factories repeat queue by default, a mini map and so on). Those only change things on your end if you are playing multi player. Then there are server mods (like legion) which can do more stuff, and are loaded automatically for everyone if you host a multi player game.

Edit: gave wrong link! Oops...

ModX is discontinued. The only extant big mod is GA, and this when it comes out.

Oh i know it's not finished but I have never installed a mod before and my pc is also used for college sooooo......yeah. nervous? absolutely.

You shouldn't )
Thete is absolutely 0 files in PAMM that are harmfull. It is somewhat a repository of player made dreams ;p

It is not official, but if you want more prove that it is supported than a sticky thread in the main game forums I can't give you one.

I trust you. if my pc does go down i'll come after you then. no pressure

PAMM is fine, I've been using it for years. The only risk anything on PAMM poses is some of the mods can break the game a bit (usually if you combine too many mods together at once). If that happens you just turn off the offending mod and all is well

I need a gun, NOW¡¡

Clopse is also lending a hand.

Perfectly sensible, but you can be reassured by the fact that thousands, if not tens of thousands of people have used PAMM.

Anything to report?
