Changing Eras with Missing Imperial Leaders

[the_trots]

I am playing Art of War as the NR.  I am in ERA 2 at 80 weeks and The empire has been wiped out.  The Droid log says the Empire has one planet but I cannot find it or Thrawn to progress to Era 3.

Do I just have to wait out the 100 week timer?

Yeah, to prevent crashing, the three main factions being the New Republic, the Empire of the Hand, and the Imperial Remnant, The devs had to place a planet for each of the three factions outside the galactic map. It had something to do with story scripting or something. I asked in an earlier thread as to why the Art of War GC wouldn't end with all planets captured, it's because of those 3 planets. The only possible place for the Imperial leader to spawn is on the IR planet outside the GC map (Which you can't access).

Thank you for the answer.

Oh man, I thought that was just a bug. So there's really never a victory screen, huh... I guess you could think of that as some kind of commentary on the cyclical and ultimately futile nature of war if you were inclined to read deeper meaning into it.

I am doing an Art of War play through as the Empire now. Thrawn, Joruus C'baoth, and the smuggler guy all spawned of a missing planet. If I clicked on their captions the planet just read missing. Eventually he was replaced by the emperor.

That's basically an unavoidable side effect of the workaround that's for. Luckily, that workaround won't be needed in 2.3, so those planets will be gone.
