Awesome! It runs on my 2012 MBP as well! And I’ll add Empire At War to the poll.  

 

I forgot about EAW. I've only briefly played it but it seemed pretty good

From a quick Google, it seems like it's a bit like Vainglory or LoL, a real time strategy game where you run around and crush your opponents.

If I recall acurately it is more similar to the top down view and play style of the old War Hammer games or like Age of Empires. LoL and Vain Glory are more team based and less dependent on unit production

Ah. So like a cross between Star Wars Commander (basically Clash of Clans) and Vainglory?

Yeah you could look at it like that. I forget what the kind of game is called but whatever Age of Empires is, EAW is also

[Nicnac]

Yea it's close to AoE and Anno games

Downloaded about a billion KOTOR mods. Gonna see how they look, how to install them and such, and eventually get a list up on the main page.

I haven't spent much time looking the mods for that game

I just did. There was a promising one (made of stolen work though) on some fishy Russian site, but I couldn't get it to download. And I wouldn't recommend trusting that site anyways. There's an insane amount on Nexus Mods, I just downloaded a zillion of when I get time to install them all.

Added discord server link to the OP, and fixed up all the channels so it’s not as confusing.

Oh no, that's who I shoot. I'm a loyal servant of the emperor screw the emperor he's weird it's really because the armor is so awesome. Love the graphics, sound, and weapons though.

Yah. I just got Battlefront (EA's 2015 one) so KOTOR and Battlefront II have been sadly neglected. I'll come back to them once I get bored of Battlefront (just like with music, I can bump rap for months, then switch to mostly pop or dance, then switch to rock, then back to rap, etc.).

Totaly agree with you)

Speaking of which, have you tried Battlefront? I got it since it was on sale for $5 (Still is AFAIK), and it's awesome playing with friends online. The graphics are stellar and gameplay is pretty good, just there isn't much content. Totally worth the $5 I paid though.

Real time strategy?

 

Battlefront 2 has a very special place in my heart. My brothers and I spent hours upon hours of our childhood on this damn game on our XBox way back when... We'd almost "unlocked" all the special weapon ranks for every class. Good times.

I not have Steam. GoG FTW, no DRM! I couldn't use Steam, since it won't let me run a billion installs.

I have Steam, just nothing on it. And I have Origin and EA's Battlefront (2015). It's on sale for $5, for the ultimate edition with all the DLCs.

Like @fpo pointed out in a news thread, Battlefront II 2005 has been updated to support online multiplayer! Woot!

 

Also, the new Battlefront II 2017 is available as a public beta from now until the 9th, and is totally dope. Defo download it and see how good a job EA and DICE did bringing the reboot to 2017 (spoiler, they did it pretty darn well).
