Requires Starwind Enhanced v1. 8 or higher
Fight your way through Taris remnants and undercity destroying Rakghoul nests and fighting hoards of Rakghouls. Join the Sith squad in Republic commando inspired combat and witness airstrikes and never before seen Rakghoul evolutions.
- New Squad to fight with, Sith Captain Denjiko and the Demolitionist and Splicer.
- Optionally bring Shade and Neb Wolfson to fight with you.
- New Rakghoul evolutions.
- Air strikes and dynamic combat events.
- Finish the quest for an option to alter events in the main quest.
How to start:
Start a new game and find this mission in pre-Taris. Once you leave with Shade, you cannot go back and do this.
Optional: Go visit Shade and recruit her, bring her down into the Taris destruction. She'll be equipped with a new blaster and boosted health so she survives the battle.
Talk to Captain Denjiko, who's running a crew with a demolitionist and splicer and head across the wall.
Optional: Recruit Neb Wolfson and head up the ladder and into the battlefield.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Solid download-to-endorsement ratio (6,407 downloads, 88 endorsements) shows players are actually using it.
- Adds fresh combat encounters with airstrikes and new Rakghoul evolutions—a nice twist on the base game's Rakghoul fights.
- Republic commando-inspired squad combat gives a different flavor than standard KOTOR combat.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated March 2023—might have compatibility issues with newer mod setups or patches.
- Only 88 endorsements means it's a niche mod; don't expect polished voice acting or cutscenes.
For KOTOR players who've beaten the game multiple times and want new combat challenges on Taris. Also for fans of Republic Commando who want that squad-based feel in KOTOR. Skip if you prefer story-driven quests with dialogue and choices—this is pure combat.
