Battle of Endor (Space)

incomplete as the second Death Star. Well now we have a "fully armed and operational" version. Sorry, I couldn't resist the ROTJ references. :o Now, I'm not particularly a fan of space maps. I find them kind of dull. The ships aren't exciting to fly around in and usually the only way you can win is by going around in circles and bombing the crap out of the enemy capital ship. Not much fun. Not to mention the fact that the shipped space battles are fairly inaccurate to begin with and lack the 'Star Wars feel.' Having said that, this is a [i]great[/i] map that isn't dull in the [i]least[/i]. Instead of flying around in circles and bombing enemy ships I can actually become immersed in a dog fight. I've gotten the War Hero award every time I've played this map, which is something I've never been able to do in other space maps. All of the star fighters are unique and don't feel as manufactured and bland as the shipped ones. Joining the usual cast of star fighters are the always-cool B-Wings and TIE Defenders. Each fighter has it's own qualities and can be utilized in a wide variety of manners, which puts an interesting spin on things. One thing I hated about the [i]shipped[/i] star fighters is that they felt very standardized and unoriginal. The fighters and interceptors wouldn't last very long and were fairly ineffective, which often prompted me to only go for the bombers. The unimaginative star fighters definitely brought down the quality and fun of the shipped space maps, but fortunately Mav has remedied that in Space Endor, which is perhaps the map's biggest strength. Another plus for the map is the amount of detail that's been put into it. In the background you'll see the second Death Star, The Executor, and various starships. Harmless laser fire adds an intense atmosphere to the battle. The interiors of the Calamari Cruiser and Star Destroyers have been expanded and feature various props such as crates, scaffolds, bacta tanks, and astromech droids. It even has custom music. And of course there's the Millennium Falcon, which I'll leave you guys to try out on your own. All I'll say is that it's awesome. ;) And then finally, there's yet another one of Mav's Easter Eggs hidden in here. I have yet to find it, but I'll keep looking. [b]Note that this is not the full version.[/b] I quote Mav, "This, while a finished map, only includes assault mode. If you want to play this map with assault mode, 1-flag CTF, and team dogfight, you'll need to wait for the Conversion Pack to come out - those modes will be integrated with this map then." Anyway, so this is pretty much the best space map ever. But don't take my word for it -- see for yourself! -EraOfDesann PS: Creativity gets a 10 because of the Easter Egg. Even though I haven't gotten it myself, I'm familiar with Easter Eggs from Mav's past maps and I know that a lot of creativity goes into these.

The Battle Of Endor is the most iconic and exciting space battle from the entire Star Wars saga. Quite a few people have tried recreating it for the Battlefront series but those all ended up being as
