Expanding Fronts
- Adds 2 new factions (Geonosisians and Zann Consortium), expanded vanilla factions, a handful of custom map randomizers, and an expanded map editor.
- Uses a separate executable from vanilla (
battlegrounds_x2.exe
). This means it doesn’t interfere with a vanilla installation, however, it needs to be renamed to launch with Steam/Galaxy or use online multiplayer restoration tools. - Includes native widescreen support and a windowed mode option through an external configuration tool.
- The aforementioned configuration tool can also speed up animations to 60fps, as well as other experimental features such as large map support.
- Windows only.
