Love the mod, thanks for the demo! I've played GC on all 3 currently available factions so far ...
I agree with the issues that were mentioned before (grey colour of one imperial faction on ground makes it hard to distinguish from planetary bonus buildings, red turbolasers too weak etc.)
and I also have some suggestions
1. New Republic capital ships (home one type for example):
they should, in addition to the red turbolaser damage fix, receive better turbolasers, e.g. only heavy turbolasers on Home One Type, or even double heavy turbolasers since there aren't as many turret hardpoints - I know they are tanks, but their damage output is just really small given their size and cost. And with the exception of Admiral Ackbar himself, their Boost Shields ability is pretty useless, there's not much of a change, you might want to consider making it recharge the shields a bit more/faster.
2. New Republic Starfighters, or NPC fleets in general:
When I played as GM or Zinsj, it happened to me many times that, after a few ingame weeks (Admiral difficulty), the NR attack fleets were just massively "overcrowded" with starfighters. I had to fight fleets of 156 E-Wing squadrons *and* 120 Y-Wing Squadrons, plus Frigates etc.
Suggestion - if that's even possible, give fleet "stacks" a limit of max. 30 units of a type, e.g. max 30 squads of e-wings, y-wings, a-wings or whatever per attack fleet. It's just no fun to sit there and spam corvettes for half an hour watching one squadron after the other disappear (actually it is once or max twice but not the whole time, and yes, I love to take my time for GCs).
3. Just something I saw, some planets (think there are two on the Hunt for Zinsj Map, I actually forogt which ones :/) do not *seem* have a direct hyperspace-route link to another but can in fact be accessed by that planet (which you can see by either being attacked from an unexpected direction or if you have a fleet on that planet and pull it to all the surrounding planets to see if there's a direct route). Think one of them was pretty much in the center of the map (close to roche asteroids or so)
Apart from these little "issues" there is actually nothing else I find bad in this mood, keep up the amazing work and the nice and entertaining vids on youtube!
PS: I really like that you made the Allegiance vulnerable to torpedos (fighter attacks) only, this stimulates strategic gameplay hehe ^^

Could be avoided by increasing the in-hyperspaceable radius around the shipyard ^^
I'm a native German speaker, I hope that won't be much of an issue as long as I can provide feedback/report bugs (and you forgive some mistakes).
