The game mod tools are now complete.

If you can make/find models, you can set up your own mod to play any battle you want.
This videos shows how a starwars mod was created and played.

You use levels from the main campaign, and as long the mod has been set up to have default team models, the levels you copy will just work.

Requirements:
- Windows OS only -
- Gaming Graphics Card- (standard laptop integrated GPUs not expected to perform well)
I've only done limited testing on a few computers, let me know if you have any issues.

Check video description for information on how to play/test the mod.
