...Ascendancy 0.9 Release...
The Emperor has fallen, and the Empire is in shambles after their defeat at Endor. Can the Rebel Alliance, now reformed as the fledgling New Republic, re-establish the traditions of the old Republic and restore peace or will the Empire manage to unite under a strong leader to once again impose order over a lawless galaxy?

...Features of V0.9...
Play as the New Republic or Imperial Remnant, each with unique ship rosters, abilities, playstyles and tech trees.
Conquer the Star Wars Galaxy on several new maps with various configurations, featuring several new planet types and canon planet placements.
Completely redesigned UI, and overhauled graphical effects.
Several overhauled and all-new gameplay mechanics, such as migration, ship systems degrading with damage, and the ability to entirely destroy planets.

For a full new-user guide (don't expect to do everything the same as in Sins) and more in depth information on ship rosters, see the wiki (http://thrawnsrevenge.com/wiki/index.php?title=Main_Page). There's still a ton of information we're working on adding, so it'll become more useful as we go. We also have a board to help people who want to play Ascendancy online to organize games with other players, which you can find here (http://thrawnsrevenge.com/forums/index.php?board=75.0). Keep in mind, this is a beta version and the primary purpose of it is to test features, tweak as needed and to help with balancing (which is currently still very much in progress) so please post any issues you encounter, suggestions, or feedback you may have on our forums (http://thrawnsrevenge.com/forums/index.php).
[Download Ascendancy 0.9 - Zip - ModDB] (http://www.moddb.com/mods/star-wars-ascendancy/downloads/ascendancy-09-beta-version)
[Download Ascendancy 0.9 - Installer - ModDB]
Before playing the mod to increase stability, also enable Large Address Aware to bypass Sins' 2GB memory limit issues. LAA is included in the download, simply open it, set the mode to basic, find your Sins of a Solar Empire Rebellion.exe file and click the box to enable large address aware, then save. This only needs to be done once, so if you have already done it for other mods you can skip this step.

...Goals for 1.0...
New Faction: The Empire of the Hand
Replace all stock Voiceovers
Replace stock stargrounds
Finish new planet textures
Finalize New Republic and Imperial Remnant tech tress, unit/structure rosters & balancing
Galaxy work: new maps, artefact and bonus system, unique encounters, random events
Redo and clean up some art assets
Some of these may be released in smaller patches for testing on our forums as we go, but that will be decided as we finish them. Balance patches and some map packs will definitely be released before the full 1.0, however.
