SUMMARY:

New Model: Yes

Bot: Yes

NPC: Yes

Team Support: Yes

DESCRIPTION:
A lifelike rendition of the character Ahsoka Tano, Padawan to Anakin Skywalker, from around the time of her departure from the Jedi Order.

 

FEATURES:
-----------------------------------
AHSOKA AS SINGLE-PLAYER SIDEKICK:

Have Ahsoka assist you on your single-player missions. After loading a level and activating cheat mode, type this in the game's console:

npc spawn ahsoka

 

A CHATTY BOT:
Ahsoka's multiplayer bot has a true-to-character, chatty personality, and is loaded with new things to say -- directly sourced from and inspired by her character talk and snap-backs from official games and TV show episodes, leading up to the end of The Clone Wars.

 

NEW DUAL LIGHTSABER COMBINATION:
Ahsoka being a dual lightsaber wielder in the traditional fashion, with a shoto blade, I've included her second lightsaber in the game's lightsaber selection menu. This allows the player to actually use a shoto (shorter bladed lightsaber). I found this makes fighting against duals a little less predictable, and helps to spice things up a bit both visually, and in terms of gameplay.

Console Reference:

Primary: tano

Supporting (Shoto): tano2
