Turn Rimworld’s Empire into the Galactic Empire and climb the ladder of the Imperial High Command! Star Wars Retheme is a mod series focused on retheming various Rimworld mods to fit into the beloved Star Wars universe!
Star Wars Retheme: Vanilla Factions Expanded – Empire Mod features
This mod completely changes Rimworld’s Empire into the Galactic Empire, this includes:
- Retheming the Great Hiearchy added by VFE: Empire into the Imperial High Command.
- Retheming imperial nobles into imperial commanders and officials.
- Retheming the Empire faction into the Galactic Empire faction.
- Retheming most of the Empire’s pawns, including royals, soldiers, the absolver, the techfirar and more.
- Retheming permits and adding new ones.
- Replacing the Shuttle with Lambda Shuttle (requires Madman’s Star Wars Ships).
Compatibility notes
Probably not compatible with other mods that try to retheme/change the Empire. Highly recommend using Jelheb’s Outer Rim Vanilla Faction Patch and Madman’s Star Wars Ships.
FAQ
Q: CE compatible?
A: If VFE: Empire and Outer Rim: Galactic Empire are compatible, then yes.
Q: Can you add X?
A: I would love to see ideas/feedback, and will consider interesting ideas!
Q: Do I need Madman’s Star Wars Ships?
A: No, it is optional, but if you do have it, some ships will be replaced with Star Wars ships.
Q: Does this mod remove/replace any content from VFE: Empire?
A: No, the mod is made to be non-destructive, stuff like the deserter armor, cataphract armor and more are still in the game, the Empire faction just doesn’t use them.
Q: Can I play with both Empire and the Galactic Empire from Outer Rim?
A: Yes, if my retheme is installed, the Outer Rim Empire faction is renamed to “Imperial military”, unfortunately they will not share relations with the Empire, you can take it as Imperial intrigue I guess. (Or just disable the Outer Rim Empire faction)
Q: Does this mod change noble needs?
A: Kind of, nobles now want imperial commander clothes instead of noble clothes. But I kept the throneroom and bedroom requirements the same to preserve the gameplay loop.

I would also like to thank Jelheb for inspiring me to make this mod with his own Outer Rim Imperial Remnant, which I highly recommend to use if you for some reason don’t want to use VFE: Empire.
