Well its 1/7/06.....

In a month this game will be released (2/7/06). I am really excited, as the last RTS game that had decent graphics in the star wars universe was Force Commander ....

EMPIRE AT WAR

Anyone else excited ? And or pre-order ?

The Fact that this is made by Ex-westwood programmers is reason enought to think this will be one of the best RTS's EVER!!!!!

I'm excited to see what the multiplayer will be like. But it seems really based on single player.

Force Commander left a lot to be desired, the controls were hard to grasp for me.....

This looks to be 100x better

the lucas forums are full of anticipation over a demo being released from mid-late jan (with some vague confirmation on this) so maybe worth checking up on this in a couple of weeks for that

Oh wow I totally forgot about this game and now you got me pumped for it. I love it that a lot of people from Westwood are behind it so it should be awesome.

Sadly it's not supposed to be out till fall. I made a thread about it a while ago, let me dig it up. Here ya go I got as much info on it as I could dig up when I found out about it. I havn't heard any updates on it for months.
