That One Thing
Deploying Gungan energy shields and marching a phalanx of Imperial Mech AT-AT walkers across volcanic planets to the original John Williams score.
Expanding Fronts is a massive, fan-created expansion that revitalizes Star Wars: Galactic Battlegrounds for modern systems. Building upon the classic Genie Engine foundation, it introduces entire new playable factions including the Resistance, First Order, Zann Consortium, and Geonosians, while expanding existing rosters with authentic units and technologies from across the Star Wars timeline.
Critically, Expanding Fronts completely resolves resolution and rendering limitations of the 2001 release, integrating high-resolution widescreen rendering, smooth frame pacing, enhanced AI routines, and modernized multiplayer stability. It preserves full campaign compatibility alongside new and remastered scenarios, making it the premier way to experience Galactic Battlegrounds today.
