Teradyn_pff Posted January 13, 2006 Share Posted January 13, 2006 From what we know so far, the Death Star is out of the normal plane so it is unassailable by any units conventionally. Red squadron is a special unit that is the only thing that can attack the Death Star. If Red Squadron is destroyed, they will be able to come back eventually. Ok, assuming I am not wrong so far, this presents some issues:How does the Rebel Alliance engage the Death Star?Will they be trapesing all over the map trying to engage it?Do they have to get lucky and happen to be in a system when the Empire attacks?What keeps the Empire from just retreating when Red Squadron is present?What if the Empire builds nothing but Fighter killers for thier fleets for Death Star protection? This seems like too much of a one-shot kill type thing. If these problems exists, there is either some dynamic that makes the above issues not as critical, or the balance is that Red Squadron can engage the Death Star immediately when they are both in the same space battle and have no chance of losing. Any ideas or information on this situation I haven't covered completely?

Xenomorphine Posted January 13, 2006 Share Posted January 13, 2006 What if the Empire builds nothing but Fighter killers for thier fleets for Death Star protection? Then you build capital ships to accompany that squadron, in case of just such an eventuality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then you build capital ships to accompany that squadron, in case of just such an eventuality. Well, the problem is, how do you keep Red Squadron alive long enough to engage the Death Star when every ship in the imperial fleet will be concentrating on killing them? They would have to be nearly invulnerable to survive that or they would have to have an insta attack on the Death Star when they are in the same system. We don't really know the mechanics of how Red Squadron can initiate an attack on the Death Star anyway.
