JanGaarni Posted October 31, 2005 Share Posted October 31, 2005 Squadrons can be split up into wings you know, which is what you see in EaW.I'm sorry, I need to correct myself here. It's flights ofcourse, not wings. http://www.lfnetwork.com/images/lfnlinker.gifStar Wars: Empire at War.Net Moderator&SWGalaxies Moderator Co-Leader of The Affiliates! -A-- What we do in life, echoes in eternity!- May the pants be with you!

Teradyn_pff Posted October 31, 2005 Share Posted October 31, 2005 can anyone confirm if the fighters are independent of the bigger capital ships? Yes, fighters are independent. I think one thing we are wondering about in relation to fighters and the capital ships is like tie fighters. Tie fighters did not have hyperdrives and neither did jedi starfighters, how will they travel with a fleet if they do not have a ship that they are being carried in?

Garbageben Posted October 31, 2005 Share Posted October 31, 2005 Well I guess that makes a case for fighter squadrons being stationed on planets for planetary defense. http://miniprofile.xfire.com/bg/sh/type/0/garbageben.png Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grand Moff Joyce Posted October 31, 2005 Share Posted October 31, 2005 It should do. The new age of the Empire has come! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dorkthehunter Posted October 31, 2005 Author Share Posted October 31, 2005 It should, but not that many. It could contain enough fighters to defend against even the biggest starfighter fleet the Rebels could muster, long enough to destroy the planet at least. Protecting the world from those who have an IQ higher than 30! Huzzah! Trust me...I'm a professional. Some other members and I are trying to be superheroes and save the forums.

Foshjedi2004 Posted October 31, 2005 Share Posted October 31, 2005 According to the databank the Death Star Could hold 7,200 starfighters. That is 600 Squadrons. More than the Death Star in Rebellion could hold. http://i199.photobucket.com/albums/aa197/knivesdamaster/tags/sith_omguserbar_member.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More than the Death Star in Rebellion could hold. What I think is interesting is the fact that the ISD could hold 6 squadrons and that was reflected in the game, but the Death Star was only given 24. I think that the problem is that our current computer technology is not sufficient to properly model the Death Star in a game as of yet.
