The shown maps included a trade center on Bespin with some residential quarters and a Naboo level, occupied by the Remnant forces. One of the enemies included a cyborg female mercenary with twin blasters and Force powers.
It was also believed and mentioned by the developers, that the mod drew inspiration from certain EU books, set after Battle of Endor, including the ones about Admiral Thrawn and the clones of the Emperor.
