I just wish I would have found moddb sooner.
And I was searching for mods for a completely different game when I misclicked on the letter S and saw the news on 1.2 being released. I said "huh, a star wars mod. I'll check it out. Oh, to a star wars game as well... I didn't even know that there is a newer strategy game than Galactic Battlegrounds." I bought it in a store that day, installed it and played the tutorial. I decided that I like it, downloaded the mod and started playing.
So basically this mod is responsible for me playing EaW in the first place

BTW, here is your 120th page, Revanchist

My friend in highschool told me about this mod. I think I've got more hours than he does now.

that's funny.

i think i stumbled on it through a series of vidoes on Youtube. i was originally looking at republic at war, then it went to empire at war, and rolled downhill till i found this. have stuck with following it since

I wanna say I've been on the forums over 5 years, and been following the mod a bit before that.

I think I was right in the middle of elementary (primary) school when I think I found FoTR on filefront. And now I'm in college and a tester so it's crazy how full circle life is.

It's the circle...the circle of life...

now the mod seems to be picking up steam and getting a larger fan base.

To be fair it's always been pretty high up in the mod community.

I got into the modding community when I saw Shack play RaW, I downloaded AotR and didn't realize it messed with the main FoC folders and so I had to play it for a year and a half and no other mods before i finally figured out how to fix it. When ICW loaded up I legitimately cried tears of joy. Moral of the story, I don't understand computer files at all

DarthRevansRevenge · « **Reply #2389 on:** May 11, 2017, 10:46:34 PM »

for me, i say shack playing RaW, wanted to see what the original was, didn't like it, and then stumbled on AoTR then ICW, so so semi-same

RevanTheFireMage · « **Reply #2390 on:** May 11, 2017, 10:47:33 PM »

I wrote a paper on how when I got ICW to work it was one of the greatest feelings of accomplishment I ever had

Helix345 · « **Reply #2391 on:** May 11, 2017, 11:02:12 PM »

I think you need to try and accomplish more things my friend

RevanTheFireMage · « **Reply #2392 on:** May 11, 2017, 11:22:28 PM »

I've qualified and competed at state competition both years in high school for swimming, and I've lettered twice both years as well as getting about triple amount the points by myself that some entire teams get all together. I've been invited to festivals in NYC and Los Angeles for my writing and journalism papers. I've accomplished many things and I was just using that as an example because I'm very passionate about this game and this mod and I was just saying how I was proud of myself after a year and a half of frustration and disappointment over and over again

Sorry man I know, it's been a long week I've been up for the past 48 hours and I haven't had any caffeine in the past five hours

Well there's your problem. You need to keep fueling that socially accepted addiction.

dude, it's not ccaffeine you need, IT IS SLEEP!
Go to bed young man

Mr.Puerto · « **Reply #2397 on:** May 12, 2017, 07:28:36 PM »

Speaking of lack of sleep, my journey of suffering has come to end for now. All Bs in my classes therefore making my 10 hours of sleep last week worth the pain. Pretty sure anymore and there would've been a hospital visit I was certainly functioning past my limit. My mother (medical professorial) was not too pleased.

DarthRevansRevenge · « **Reply #2398 on:** May 12, 2017, 08:52:33 PM »

i can imagine. my mother wouldn't be too pleased either

I saw Shack play RaW, and then youtube suggested Corey's channel to me, and I think I saw ICW for the first time there. Although I also watched the entire playthrough of ICW as the NR at Shack's channel before downloading the mod. As for base EaW, I bought it at first when it was released in 2006, and have been playing it since occasionally. Easily the most-played game in my life, although eventually I just got sick of the base game and its two factions (three in FoC), and switched to mods. I wish I'd found ICW earlier.
