Xerox_II Posted May 8, 2004 Share Posted May 8, 2004 What can two squads of Corellian transports do? Well, if they have 40 lasers on each side, 24 YTs can Destroy an ISD with 4 Dreadnoughts and damn many fighters.Coruscant. Admiral Zuggs does not expect any trouble. A rebel fleet of 24 YT-1300 warp in, led by me and Admiral Antilles. Imperials are sure they're gonna win, relying on awesome firepower of ISD and 4 DRDs with support of something about 25 TIE squads (~10 Intcpts + T/Fs). Some earlier I've found YTs great in obliterating TIEs, so I show no fear when disposing 'em. I loose 2 ships. Dilemma: should we run or engage capital ships? Well, let's try to damage a dreadnought. Well, quad lasers proove that DRD needs better shielding, this one is crippled, having no systems. I switch to another one. Perhaps I might damage it enough to cause Imps withdrawl? But even having all four DRDs inoperational, Zuggs is sure to win! Time to proove him wrong!Final statistics: Galactic Empire: ISD, 4 DRDs, ~25 TIE squads - destroyed. Rebel Alliance: 10 YTs - destroyed.2 YTs - heavy damage.1 YT - lightly damaged.11 YTs - fully operational The Empire is all. It could never be defeated. NEVER.Thrawn lived, Thrawn lives, Thrawn's gonna live!SWR has you, follow the blue Thrawn.[+1 post] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ElvisMiggell Posted May 11, 2004 Share Posted May 11, 2004 I mean.. the Falcons got what? 8 individual cannons? Elvismiggell.

Stellar_Magic Posted May 12, 2004 Share Posted May 12, 2004 Yeah the Falcon has eight laser cannons that are from an old Dreadnught, pluse the forward facing gun under the cockpit. But the Falcon is a modified YT-1300 a normal one only has four lasers facing the dorsal mount. The second set of cannons is part of the Falcon's modifications. There goes over half the combat power of the ship Forum and RPG Membership:http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v436/StellarMagic01/RaporaWarsTC.jpghttp://img.photobucket.com/albums/v436/StellarMagic01/RaporaWarsRPG2.jpg Signature:Sufficiently advanced technology would be indistinguishable from Magic. -Arthur C.

ElvisMiggell Posted May 12, 2004 Share Posted May 12, 2004 Yeah... see... it's quite well armed for it's size, but still only really against fighters. Elvismiggell.

Xerox_II Posted May 12, 2004 Author Share Posted May 12, 2004 40 lasers aren't that overpowered, cause I've empowered all weapons and shields on ships, it's the least armed of all armed craft. Yeah, it's damn good against fighters, and after I taught my Al some lessons, even he start including 2-3 in his fleets. The Empire is all. It could never be defeated.

Stellar_Magic Posted May 12, 2004 Share Posted May 12, 2004 I made the Assault Transport with the stats from XWA, and found that it's cannon fodder, twelve ATRs vs. a Victory Star Destroyer means twelve dead ATRs and ATRs are better gunned then a YT-1300. Your ships have to be over gunned...

ElvisMiggell Posted May 12, 2004 Share Posted May 12, 2004 I just can't see laser cannons blasting through an ISD's shields... turbolasers maybe... but the falcon don't have turbolasers.

Xerox_II Posted May 13, 2004 Author Share Posted May 13, 2004 But Falcon had "Arakid" missiles, that can't be added to a capital ship somewhy. And it could blow DS II and SSD Iron Fist...

Stellar_Magic Posted May 13, 2004 Share Posted May 13, 2004 Han Solo watched the viewport in horror as the Millenium Falcon dropped out of lhyperspace. He turned to Chewie, "Don't tell me you struck a deal with CEC!" The light rumble of urf urf laughter comes from the wookie. Han throws up his hands in thrustration, "I hate clones!"
