Nevets Posted November 29, 2005 Share Posted November 29, 2005 Under the troops section on the new EAW site it has one listed called Hutt Palace. Now I assume this is where you recruit smugglers and bounty hunters and it finally explains why Jabba's palace is in this Naboo background: http://pcmedia.gamespy.com/pc/image/article/587/587433/star-wars-empire-at-war-20050213114946721.jpg Problem is that originally it was a monestary for B'omarr monks, not a hutt palace.

Dorkthehunter Posted November 29, 2005 Share Posted November 29, 2005 I think that is a Rebel base, so does that mean that they can get Boba Fett also, if they have Jabba's palace? Can the Imperials get Dash Rendar, or other smugglers or bounty hunters? Can the Rebels get IG88, 4LOM, Bossk, etc.? It brings up so many questions.

I am still unsure about Fett, since he is a bounty hunter he should be able to go to the highest bidder. Doubt Dash, IG, LOM, and Bossk are in since they are not listed. I imagine the bounty hunters and smugglers are just generic designs, not actually characters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zer_Teron Posted November 29, 2005 Share Posted November 29, 2005 Well they did have a moment of Boba Fett saying "Awaiting Orders" while standing infront of Imperial Troops, so i guess hes Imperial. Hutt Palace is neutral http://img20.imageshack.us/img20/3488/zersigef1.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grand Admiral Thrawn 889 Posted November 30, 2005 Share Posted November 30, 2005 cool having the Hutt Palace in there but Dash was Rebel and IG-88, LOM and Bossk are Imperials. http://i115.photobucket.com/albums/n292/Admiral_Antilles/Thrawncopy.jpghttp://img525.imageshack.us/img525/3269/pffuserbar2globalmodnx9.jpg I Support the Resistance!

Darkmark Posted November 30, 2005 Share Posted November 30, 2005 I wouldn't say that exactly. As far as I was aware some of them had leanings. IG-88 though was anti-humanity, and Bossk was mainly anti-wookie more than anti-rebellion. I woulddn't know about Zuckuss and 4LOM. They ended up with the rebels though as far as I'm aware, so that says enough about their loyalties. I don't think I could class any of them as Imperial per se, they're just what they are, bounty hunters. In the end their primary reason for hunting Solo was for the cash. I mean, that's what it's all about there. If you're a bounty hunter you look out for yourself, and that means finding a client with loads of cash. It doesn't matter at the end of the day whether you love or hate what they're doing as long as number one gets number one's money... Dash I do consider a strong Rebel sympathiser though. Like Kyle in that respect. As for the Hutt palace, it does look out of place in that picture... but since I hadn't looked that closely at it before it's still nice to have a look at.

The Relentless Posted November 30, 2005 Share Posted November 30, 2005 Dash I do consider a strong Rebel sympathiser though. Like Kyle in that respect. Gotta agree with you on that, He was a supplies smuggler for the Rebels at least until Hoth happened. As for Boba I think Petroglyph has made him an Imperial-only unit, and I think they are doing the right thing. I just can't see a Mandalorian working for a very Jedi-friendly faction. Go Leafs go!

Nevets Posted November 30, 2005 Author Share Posted November 30, 2005 I don't think Boba would have turned down a large chunk of change from the Rebellion. Their primary goal was to restore the Republic, Jedi were secondary. Now Luke's goals were to restore the Jedi, but Boba wouldn't be working for Luke.

Foshjedi2004 Posted November 30, 2005 Share Posted November 30, 2005 The Rebellion couldn't afford Boba's Prices. As such they never used Bounty Hunters. http://i199.photobucket.com/albums/aa197/knivesdamaster/tags/sith_omguserbar_member.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nevets Posted November 30, 2005 Author Share Posted November 30, 2005 The Rebellion couldn't afford Boba's Prices. As such they never used Bounty Hunters. I think it was more of a moral thing then a price thing. Sure in the movies they couldn't have afforded them, but even if the tide of the war did change and the Rebels had the imps on the run, money wouldn't be a problem, I still don't think Bounty Hunters were up their ally.

Zer_Teron Posted November 30, 2005 Share Posted November 30, 2005 Oh no, Boba Fett never would have worked for the Rebellion. He knew they were terrorists and that they were morally wrong. He even said it in his little tale in the Tales of the Bounty Hunters book. http://img20.imageshack.us/img20/3488/zersigef1.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garbageben Posted November 30, 2005 Share Posted November 30, 2005 Even with the whole morality issue in Boba's mind I do not think he would ever have worked for the rebels. He was a favorite of Darth Vader for one and two, he thought that the rebels would lose. No bounty hunter would work for a client if they thought that doing so would be against their best interest. Quite simply: They thought the rebels would lose, so eventually the Empire might try to get them back for aiding the rebellion during its time. Of course that doesn't happen, but I can see how many were reluctant to join the rebels (if the rebels had ever managed to scrape enough credits to hire a bounty hunter). http://miniprofile.xfire.com/bg/sh/type/0/garbageben.png Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darkmark Posted November 30, 2005 Share Posted November 30, 2005 Fett I consider to be like Kyle and Dash are to the Rebellion as he is to the Imperials. He has sympathies. In terms of gameplay I wouldn't mind seeing him hired by either side, but if he's on Imperial only I can settle with that. It still makes sense.

Little.B Posted November 30, 2005 Share Posted November 30, 2005 Mh if I think on the books I had the impression that Fett simply worked for everyone who payed the right amount of money. I think he always tried to stay somewhat neutral and not to affiliate with one side to much because he knew that this was what lead to the death of his father. Wasn't it. http://www.pexsus.com/~littleb/eaw/banner_eaw.jpgFeel the ForceIRC (QuakeNet): #empireatwar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Relentless Posted November 30, 2005 Share Posted November 30, 2005 Boba Hated the Jedi not because he is a Mandalor but because Mace Windu, a jedi, killed his father. I know Mace killed Jango, but I also remembered that Mandalorians naturally hate Jedi, which is not true. So sorry for being wrong. What was that Jedi-hating race anyways... Go Leafs go!

Foshjedi2004 Posted November 30, 2005 Share Posted November 30, 2005 Um...The Bpfassi. They had a few of their jedi go to the darkside during the Clone Wars. Yoda killed one of the Dark Jedi Masters on Dagobah creating that Warped darkside Tree and Cave. http://i199.photobucket.com/albums/aa197/knivesdamaster/tags/sith_omguserbar_member.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phantom_pff Posted November 30, 2005 Share Posted November 30, 2005 What was that Jedi-hating race anyways... The sith?and many many others, espcialy after the emprer started sinning his lies. Any ways the rebels are more of a "smuggler's friend" then they would be with bounty hunters, because, like Dash, it was the smugglers who were running supplies for the rebellion.

Nevets Posted November 30, 2005 Author Share Posted November 30, 2005 In reality, if the Rebels weren't suppose to be the "all moral good guys" the rebels would have no problem using bounty hunters. It would be much cheaper to hire a bounty hunter to run some assasinations of key imps then buy cap ships to fight them head to head, they are a rebellion. For the most parts the imps would have very little need for bounty hunters. The only real imperial that used them was probably Vader and that was to hunt down jedi and as a ploy to get Luke. It isn't a normal imp thing, just look at the officers' reaction in ESB when Vader brings the bounty hunters out, they aren't too pleased. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zer_Teron Posted November 30, 2005 Share Posted November 30, 2005 The Sith were extinct a long time before the Rebellion. Unless your talking about the people not the extinct race? http://img20.imageshack.us/img20/3488/zersigef1.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Foshjedi2004 Posted November 30, 2005 Share Posted November 30, 2005 Before the Great Sith War there was a Sith EMPIRE. It spanned across a vast region of the Galaxy. The Republic came and crushed them. E.O.S.
