Scenarios

[chrlsthgreat]

I like challenging scenarios, don't get me wrong, but thats impossible!

[Evaders99]

Few scenarios from X-Wing novels and games would be easy to implement in Warlords without changes due to

- Good guys win effect

- Starfighters pilots are God effect

- Gameplay crutches such as destroying shield generators

- Very few number of ships, as perspective from the starfighter

 

Some of the smaller ones would be good for a fleet tactical game.. ala Nexus. But there are few resources that show the strategic side of battles,

If there were ever a "Tom Clancy" writer for SW, then perhaps we would get more scenarios to flesh out. I doubt that would ever happen though.

[chrlsthgreat]

So, EJ, are any other scenarios, besides Endor, going to be included into the next release?

[EvilleJedi]

a bunch of small single ship engagments I was using for testing and possibly some of the described ones in this thread

[Venator]

I thought I would post this little tid-bit for canon effect.  ;D

 

Second Battle of Coruscant (19 BBY)

 

Galactic Republic:

900 Venator-class Star Destroyers

5,400 ARC-170 Squadrons

28,800 V-wing Squadrons

28,800 ETA-2 Squadrons

 

Confederacy of Independent Systems:

26 Lucrehulk-class Battleships

6 Providence-class Cruisers

700 Recusant-class Destroyers

1,200 Munificent-class Star Frigates

62,600 Vulture Droid Squadrons

34,200 Tri-Droid Squadrons

 

Now, if we play our cards right, this battle should last 18 hours and the Republic should win with 2/3 of their forces left and the CIS should run with less than 1/3 of their total forces left. 

 

But in all seriousness, the Second Battle of Coruscant is really what I am looking forward to with the addition of the remaining Clone Wars ships.

[EvilleJedi]

heh you forgot that the republic had 3 carrack cruisers, 1 dreadnaught and 1 mandator at coruscant

[Mace Uzumaki]

i couldnt imagine the lag of that i dont think even the best grafics card could handle it.

[dojoyoda_warlords]

Maybe someone should pop down to langley and ask if we could borrow a Cray or 3 for the weekend. Then we somehow hook up 50 players to the one game. Should be easily manageable.........................

[dojoyoda_warlords]

Just gave the CW.big a whirl. Wow. The Providence certainly opens a can of whoopass on the Venator.

[chrlsthgreat]

So I played the Endor scenario, and it looks great, but I don't think theres any way possible way to win  . The Death Star II looks amazing, by the way.

Battle of Esfandia

 

Empire

1 Imperator II Star Destroyer

1Imperator I Star Destroyer

1 Lancer-class frigate

24 TIE Fighters

 

Yuuzhan-Vong

Ok, the Vong are supposed to have 1 Kor Chokk (the equivalent to an SSD), but I seriously doubt that 2 ISDs can take care of that. Unless the Kor Chokk starts off at about half health (due to the damage caused at the Battle of Borosk), maybe it would be better to just replace it with a Miid ro'ik cruiser.

20 Coralskippers

Grutchins (any intention of including those?)

[EvilleJedi]

is the Kor Chokk the obsidian cruiser or is it a red pearly?

[OOM-911]

what about the one event (forgot the name) were the VSD MK I's battled the bulwarks for the first time.

 

not sure how many ships there were for each force so it should be easy to balance out base on the mods current standings.

[chrlsthgreat]

EJ, take a look at the Vong Ships thread for the Kor Chokk response

[chrlsthgreat]

Battle of Ithor

 

New Republic and Empire

4 Imperator I-class Star Destroyers

1 Imperator II-class Star Destroyer

9 Victory I-class Star Destroyers

3 Bothan Assault Cruisers

1 Liberty-class Mon Cal Cruiser

1 Interdictor Cruiser

1 squadron of Clawcraft

X-Wings

TIE fighters

 

Yuuzhan-Vong

1 Kor Chokk (or the biggest Vong ship you have designed, EJ, except a worldship)

3 Miid Ro'ik Cruisers

8 Yorik-Vec Gunships

Coralskippers

Elite Coralskippers

 

This may look like overkill on the "good guys" part, but I remember when I went againt a Miid Ro'ik cruiser in the previous version (.45), it kicked ass.
