Transport - Moving?

[Jmaster3265]

Well, I have been wondering this for a while now and it hasn't been brought up or asked. Here is my question I've been noticing and wondering for a while now that transports only seem to land troops and be used to retreat? Can you not pick-up your units and move them where ever you want like in SWGB? Also, say you find some natives is there anyway to get them to join you and be able to transport them to different planets? Just a thought. Its been discussed how you can use transports for landing and retreating, but never if you can move them around the land. Edited February 10, 2006 by Cain

I wish!

 

There are a bunch of things I wish you could do like SWGB! One of them is what you are saying.

 

It would be great to convince some Wookies or something to come with you...but I don't think it's possible.

I don't think force corrupt works on a group of species.. :

Transport on ground map just land troops. No more.

When you retreat, you have the chronometer and when it reaches 0, game end

In an interview they said that his could be used for the spieces

It works on all units types.

JA!, tell ya

Ok, but i would like a good answe you guys are just making short responses, a feew words to a sentence. And your only answering the force curroupt which i never asked about....

[Lucius]

i would hope so... but the way the game is made up i dunno.... maybe if you mod a land unit into a transport, instead of a space unit, that would be really cool

 

and as for the native thing... i wouldnt nessesarily use them other than planetary defense(if it was possible to move them), cus if we could... it would be a part of the pop cap i think and if that happened, i would think that all natives would be counted and that would be a lot of units just for natives.

This is your answer Jmaster.

I think they intend for us to only move troops into areas where we control the reinforcement points.  If we can just put troops anywhere during battle, then that just does away with the whole idea of reinforcement points.

Diplomacy anyone?  Get the wookie homeworld to join peacfully = create wookie units  ;D  To bad it does not seem like this is possible >

Well i dont want you to get your hopes up but i want to point something out. Red alert 2 wasnt that easely moddeable (at least thats what i think) but they where able to create citizens in the baracks and acteurs too. (i dont remember which ones but they did that)

what i mean is if they can do it with red alert it should be possible in this game... because people of weswood are working on this game? maybe its impossible but i just wanted to point that out
