Hello pilots. I know you don't socialize with ground crew very often, but I thought appropriate to show you there are also old Star Wars games based on planetary surface combat which are still kept alive: http://swgb.heavengames.com/
I have always found the infantry too powerful in this game, as it is in Empire at War, and I'm also aware that Galactic Battlegrounds is not a game of the magnitude of X-Wing Alliance, but there is still a community working on it, and this is good.
The site is plenty of new campaigns, mods and utilities.

Would be nice to have ambassadors to their community.

Now Star Destroyers are allowed in Galactic Battlegrounds:

You can also play the Geonosians or the Zann Consortium, and new maps are available too.
The population limit for a player has been increased to 1000.

However, it seems the Expanding Fronts mod has compatibility issues with the Widescreen Patch.

I don’t know if this is the right topic to ask about a problem I have with a mission of the Imperial campaign in Galactic Battlegrounds.
I haven’t played this game for ages (of Empires) until yesterday, when I decided to download it from GOG and give it a try again.
I began Darth Vader’s campaign and I had no problems completing Mission #1: Incursion on Yavin IV.
You don’t even need to build units in that mission since all your reinforcements come with the Sentinel-class landing crafts directly from the Executor.

In Mission #2: Breaking Bread, the mission on Reytha, I found a problem that prevents me from proceeding in the mission: my Ally Yeere, a sub-faction of the Galactic Empire with grey units, has built a Medium Wall on my way, so my ground forces, including Darth Vader himself, can’t reach the rendezvous point.
I can’t take down the wall because it doesn’t belong to my enemies. What can I do?
Is there anybody having my same problem? Is this a mission bug?
Any help will be much appreciated.
