ADarkJedi44 Posted June 23, 2004 Posted June 23, 2004 Thank you, almighty spam master.But lets get back to capitol ships.So can anyone give me a rough estimate of how many Calamari cruisers the Alliance used during the first few years of the GCW? Sweat saves blood-Erwin Rommel
Guest Admiral_Antilles Posted June 23, 2004 Posted June 23, 2004 Probably about 10 or so at first. I doubt they had 50 ships for tourists.
ADarkJedi44 Posted June 23, 2004 Posted June 23, 2004 Heh yeah, but they did begin building their own after they finished modifying the star liners or whatever they were.They lost 2 we shall say durign Endor, they had to have like 6 left to continue to keep a foothold I'd imagine and I'm sure they had already lost a few....

Guest Admiral_Antilles Posted June 23, 2004 Posted June 23, 2004 Yeah, but I still say their numbers never went past 20 until post ROTJ.
ADarkJedi44 Posted June 23, 2004 Posted June 23, 2004 20 Sounds likely, 10 is a little shabby but if they had 20 it's easy to imagine them decent sized operations before ROTJ and keeping a foothold after ROTJ Sweat saves blood-Erwin Rommel
Guest Admiral_Antilles Posted June 23, 2004 Posted June 23, 2004 Yeah, 20 sounds reaseonable, after all they had like 8-10 in ROTJ. I am sure they had a few ships in reserve across the Galaxy. Plus they probably lost a few during battles before ANH.
ADarkJedi44 Posted June 23, 2004 Posted June 23, 2004 Yeah those Calamari cruisers rocked! With a good group of fighters they could take on an ISD Sweat saves blood-Erwin Rommel
ADarkJedi44 Posted June 23, 2004 Posted June 23, 2004 Yeah an ISD is better but I've always though the Calamari cruisers were cooler Sweat saves blood-Erwin Rommel
Guest Admiral_Antilles Posted June 23, 2004 Posted June 23, 2004 No way, ISD are cooler, stronger, better.
ADarkJedi44 Posted June 23, 2004 Posted June 23, 2004 They don't look as cool....they're just a big triangle Sweat saves blood-Erwin Rommel
ADarkJedi44 Posted June 23, 2004 Posted June 23, 2004 Feh...they're artistic my friend....artistic Sweat saves blood-Erwin Rommel
Guest Admiral_Antilles Posted June 23, 2004 Posted June 23, 2004 Feh...they're artistic my friend....artistic Right...
ADarkJedi44 Posted June 23, 2004 Posted June 23, 2004 Feh They do look cooler, you know it! Sweat saves blood-Erwin Rommel
Guest Admiral_Antilles Posted June 23, 2004 Posted June 23, 2004 Pickle vs Triangle vs Eyeball vs letters of the alphabit = Space battles.
ADarkJedi44 Posted June 23, 2004 Posted June 23, 2004 That's the battle of Endor for ya Sweat saves blood-Erwin Rommel
Guest Admiral_Antilles Posted June 23, 2004 Posted June 23, 2004 That was always my favorite part of ROTJ. It still never gets old when that A-Wing crashes into the SSD.
ADarkJedi44 Posted June 23, 2004 Posted June 23, 2004 Of course! I'm one for big space battles too Sweat saves blood-Erwin Rommel
Guest Admiral_Antilles Posted June 23, 2004 Posted June 23, 2004 Alright, I think we have seen enough SPAM between the two of us, lets take it down a few notches.
Krytos Posted June 24, 2004 Posted June 24, 2004 Wow - almost two pages al by your selves!! You truelly are the SPAM masters I totally agree, space battles rock. That's why I love playing either Rebellion (well, there's more to it then just space battles) and the Warlords mod for Homeworld 2, great space battles with great graphics http://img146.imageshack.us/img146/1778/reloadedbannerdu8.gifhttp://img152.imageshack.us/img152/1333/3dartistbanneranimationws1.gifhttp://img154.imageshack.us/img154/4026/rebellionbannerdi2.gif
AdmiralFishface Posted June 24, 2004 Author Posted June 24, 2004 I like the sound of Turbolasers and explosions and TIEs swooping past and the immense deep rumble of a Star Destroyers' thrusters.I like the looks of huge chunks of metal sitting in space exchanging barrages of red and green bolts of light, tiny starfighters swarming between them and fireballs expanding in the vastness of space.I like the battle of Endor.I hope to see at least ONE decent capital ship battle in Episode 3, but I sincerely doubt ANY good space battles can be seen in either of the prequels. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v436/RiesstiuIV/Krempel/trapaure.gif
