Fate of the Galaxy TIE/ln Starfighter
Fate of the Galaxy (FotG), also known as The Star Wars Conversion, is a singleplayer and multiplayer total conversion for the Freespace 2 SCP engine set in the Star Wars universe. The game is currently in development.

Gameplay

The player will choose to play as either a pilot for the Rebel Alliance (later the New Republic) or the Galactic Empire. Each side will have its own unique ships to control. Story missions will likely also include neutral factions such as pirates, though these are not planned as playable factions.

The gameplay will differ from that present in the default Freespace 2 engine. Ships will be much faster and combat quicker paced, with a larger focus on avoiding damage rather than absorbing it.

Vehicles

The game will initially include a small number of ships unique to each side, with some designs being shared between factions. Each side's fighters and capital ships will have unique strengths, leading to a different gameplay style for each side. (more...)
