Star Wars: Empire at War is a real-time strategy game released in February 2006. It focuses on the struggle between the Empire and the Rebels that begins in the time frame between Revenge of the Sith and A New Hope. It was developed by Petroglyph, a company comprising many former members of Westwood Studios, best known for their work on the Command & Conquer series. Empire at War uses an entirely new engine that Petroglyph developed, known only as Alamo.

Gameplay


There are three different game modes: Skirmish, Storyline-Campaign, and Galactic Conquest.
Campaign
The campaign follows a semi-open linear path, where the given side must complete mission objectives (such as stealing the Death Star plans) in sequence. Campaign missions build up to the plot of A New Hope.

Skirmish
Skirmish mode is the "classic" RTS mode, and the most likely mode to be used online. Skirmishes come in two types: land and space. In land skirmishes, all players start with bases, and must capture resource nodes and research upgrades, while ultimately destroying the enemy's base. In space skirmish, the base is replaced with a space station that can be upgraded. The player "buys" ships to attack the enemy with, until one station is destroyed. Skirmish battles require the least time investment, and so are best suited towards casual players.
