OOC: You missed a step Trej, oh well thats easily remeeded. Now someone asked how many troops I've got I posted it earlier but here it is again: Four companies of Trade Federation Battle Droids, three companies of Seperatist Super Battle Droids, and one company of Trade Federation Droidekas IC:The Confederate Dreadnaught slowly slid into position fifteen kilometers over the Republic forces. Slowly it turned, rotating in space to have its port side facing toward the planet's surface. On the Bridge Krummel tapped at the side of his command chair, "Signal Nailu." "Channel Open," One of the Droids said blandly. "Nailu, our sensors show a number of enemy troops to the canyon, south of you, I'm giving you command of two companies of Battle Droids, see if you can spring an ambush on the enemy once they land." "I haven't even landed yet Krummel!" The Dark sider hissed from the comm, "Alright now I'm on the ground." "Good luck Nailu, we'll shower the Republic with gifts while the droids fly down, Krummel out." As the channel closed he nodded to the droid at the weapons control, "You may begin firing." With another brilliant flash of red light a deadly barrage of turbolaser blasts lanced down toward the Republic formations. Wave after wave showered the Republic troops, as they scurried into the cover of the cannon. In those few seconds their forces had been cut in half once more. OOC: Doesn't orbital bombardment rock!

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v436/StellarMagic01/Tuvax.jpg I know its not very good, I did it in a hurry, but something along these lines will be the Rapora Wars Logo, perhaps it can cross over to become the sites mascot. As for the Logo, the lightsaber and crests seems to look pretty good for a basic in sight signature, but I'd like to have a different animated image for the site head.

The system we Americans use is known as English Standard. It was developed in England and spread across the globe, now it only remains in a few places, mainly America (Does england still use it?) Why? Because metric is based on scientific and easily transferable values. Moreover English standard is really confusing, 12 inches in a foot, 36 inches in a yard, and how many yards in a mile. While Metric is easier, 1000mm = 100 cm = 1 m = 0.001 km. So why does America still use English Standard, we're stubborn.

Sure here's how In the case of Rapora Wars just have a category under EU called Minor Powers, throw the Chiss, Vagaari, Rapora, Vaathkree and whatever else in that category. For trans universe stuff simply have an 'Other' folder (Perhaps a seperate ST Folder as well) for each card category.

Give me 1 more day and I shall have a mascot for you to bow too. Here's an idea for a logo, based on the spining lightsaber. On one side have the symbol, on the other have an image of their forces, and have it change factions each time it rotates.

Perhaps this is in the wrong forum? Rebellion Reloaded is Modification of Rebellion, which will (soon?) be released on this sight as a downloadable mod. The modification changes the time period to the Dark Force Rising trilogy and replaces all the graphics including the movies (You'll be blowing up Eclipse class SSDs instead of Death Stars I believe.) It also changes the characters (I don't know what to what because I'm not involved.)

Well we'vve had a rather dry winter here in the dead center of the United States of America, you guys seem to be getting pounded. Oh well, global warming at its finest.

Perhaps if we organized them a bit more, into a series of categories. For example: Say I want to get an Imperial I-7 Howlrunner and a KDY Firespray attack ship. Fighters Imperial Craft EU Non-Tie Designs I-7 Howlrunner Fighters Non Affiliated Craft Original Trilogy Kuat Drive Yards Firespray Or if you really want to be bold... Fighters Minor Powers Raporan Craft Raporan Tornclaw I'd also like to see a commentary section for each card.

Well, I was going to have Kyp die giving Han time to get the Falcon offplanet during the evacuation. The Rapora will literally cut him to pieces. I'll probably have him get slightly wounded earlier. He'll try to use dark sides powers toward the end of the fight as he desperately hangs on to life. Then, he'll be cut down. You could have Ulan watching or trying to help, I could easily slip him into the framework I've constructed.

Sure I'll take suggestions, but I think having Kyp go the way I'm planing will be better and much more evil then anything you can come up with, or so I think. Prove me wrong...

Yeah, I'm working on that drawing right now, hopefully I'll add enough in the drawing so that I won't need the background. With the Rapora starfighter, yes Trej all the stars do show, that image is the exact same as the one in game.

Uh oh, Logo and Mascot? Jedi Igor said something about a fanfic contest, *rubs his hands together in excitement* I know just what to do. I shall set to work immediately!

Kyp will be killed in the final stage of the battle, and I'll be the one to post it. Darth Fury, well Thompson will live, Zekk and Lowbacca will die. Perhaps you and some Rapora should go chase Zekk... BS: Savlas can enter atmosphere? Pay attention you have not. Lets see, Tatooiene the Savla which held Malice Tuvax and Shren landed on the surface, Vaathkree the Savla which carried the Raporan delegation landed on the surface, the Battle of Adumar, a Savla enters the atmosphere to support Vagaari forces. Need I continue?

Think meatgrinder.

OOC: You Fool!!!! Now I'll teach you not to mess with the Rapora! From orbit the squadron had been waiting, their commanders impatient for a chance to get into the fight. The Savlas sat there, their weapons fooly charged, watching the battle. The squadron commander frowned as he saw the Mandalorian cruiser begin advancing on the Aklasp, its polaron cannon useless in the atmosphere. He turned to his communications officer, "We cannot allow that, how flexible are our orders?" "Very sir, do you think we should commit?" "Yes, order first flight to engage the enemy, be sure to have them nail that ship, Timeless Spear would be the best tactic to use." "Yes sir." * * * Darth Avarice felt her flesh pucker as the Mandalorian Cruiser advanced toward her formation. She turned to the Artillery commander, "Can you hit it?" "No sir, the target is too high, we can't hit a target at that altitude." A squadron of Aklasp fighters roared overhead, climbing to engage the newest foe, but there was not need. From high above four Savla class cruisers screamed into the engagement. Loosing their mines as they shot toward the target firing everything. The blasts pierced the shield and blew the dorsal centerline away as smoke poured from the hatches. The mines formed an enormous cloud around the Cruiser, firing into the ship blasting at the hull, ripping the vessel apart bit by bit. Then the Savlas returned, their weapons ripping across the ship's centerline, tearing the ship apart before flashing above or below the craft at full speed. A series of blasts from the ground flashed across the lower hull, damaging the repulsor lifts. The Savlas broke and turned back to the engagement and the first dual medium plasma cannon blasts from the latest run ripped through the ship's secondary reactor and the entire engine compartment detonated as the craft tumbled backward, still over the empty space between the lines as it thundered to the ground and detonated. The leading formations of both armies were battered from the blast as a kilometer nearly a kilometer wide appeared between them. * * * Around the UDA positions the Jedi and commandos had hastily managed to entrench as the Rapora approached. Their first line had been cut down by a series of fierce blasts from entrenched positions, those that remained took cover before returning fire. Melina Thompson lifted her blaster carbine to her shoulder and cut down a Vagaari warrior as he charged toward their position. She glanced back to the main Raporan force, an army of exceptional strength in her estimation. An army that she had to delay, "Zekk, take command of 3rd Company, wheel right charge, barn door procedure." "What?" Zekk yelled as a Concussion missile screamed past their fortifications and into the barren ground. "Attack the enemy flank but only pivot your force, got it?" Melina yelled back. "Got it," Zekk answered as he bent down and ran from crater to crater to the Company's position. He managed to dodge the volleys of blaster and plasma fire that shot toward him. Still the Rapora could clearly see him. * * * Darth Fury marched along the second line of warriors, he could see a figure in the distance and through the force knew that it was a Jedi. Letting a soft hiss escape his lips he knew that this battle would be more difficult then he anticipated. * * * Corran Horn winced as the Mandalorian Cruiser crashed into the ground and exploded. He dodged a line of laser blasts from a Savla's antistarfighter cannon, "Solo this is Horn, we are very heavily engaged, the enemy nearly has complete air superiority." "I know Horn, but I don't have anything to send you, we may be forced back on the ground as well, just do as much as you can." "Yeah, thanks," Corran fumed as he turned toward friendly forces, "Alright all flights reform and keep your wits, we've got more incoming...sith." An Aklasp fighter shot past his cockpit, its blue positron cannon firing at an aged X-wing. Corran centered his sights on the enemy and launched a pair of Proton Torpedoes. The blasts merely knocked down the ship's shields and sent it spining away for a moment, "You clear Tigre four, get beck to your flight." Cursing Horn looked back at the sensors and saw an entire squadron of Aklasp heading his way, "May the force be with us..."

I say, wait until the game is actually released before making such a decision!

I'm using Mozilla 1.7 (I think), and when I click on a card to download it, I get this. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v436/StellarMagic01/Error.jpg

Lets see, I come here because of... SWR Forums community General SW News the SW mods stuff Did I mention the RPGs?

I use Mozilla, unfortunately the card download system doesn't seem compatable with the browser, usually all I get is a bunch of numbers.

I've gone on something fo a card making storm, I'll send these in pretty quick for anyone that wants to use them, but I'd like some comments or criticism of my artwork. A brand new Starfighter Card for my Rapora Wars TC. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v436/StellarMagic01/Tornclaw.jpg Version 1 of the Raporan Warrior Company for the TC. I'll probably change the image later. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v436/StellarMagic01/RaporaWarriorV1.jpg EDIT: Man its hard editing a poll....

Well since I didn't get any response in the Gaming stories and you guys know what this is all about, here is my latest image for my TC: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v436/StellarMagic01/Tornclaw.jpg I just got a scanner and drew, scanned, then painted over the image, I think it looks better then my composite images, should I go back and rework some of the ship imagery to match the look of the drawn artwork?

OOC: Oh, I understand now...*murmurs to himself* idiots. An Acclamator vs. a Dreadnaught equals one dead Acclamator considering the Acclamator is virtually unarmed. Veran Krummel smiled as the ship began to maneuver into the atmosphere. He turned to the navagator, "Hard to port!" Then spun to the gunnery officer, "Port guns stand bye!" "Their shields are fluctuating sir, even our ranging shots have dealt damage," One of the droids said from its station. The Dreadnaught was now in perfect firing position, "Port guns, fire!" With a series of brilliant red flashes a volley of turbolaser blasts flashed across space, ripping down the shields and tearing apart the Acclamator's engine assembly. The craft seemed to pause for a moment before it fell, its power system shorting out and sending the craft into an uncontrolable descent. Its occupants would only have seconds to escape.

Okay now that I've got the scanner I'd probably want to change how I create some of the ship images, I just got done with a basic image for the Raporan Tornclaw stafighter, what do you think? http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v436/StellarMagic01/Tornclaw.jpg Also Jedi Igor asked about the costs of the ships, well its a little complicated. For example here are the stats for a Raporan Kar Lur Cruiser and a GFFA Defiance Class Mon Calamari Cruiser Kar Lur Cruiser: Construction cost: 80 Maintenance cost: 52 Hull strength: 2200 Shield strength: 2400 Turbolasers: 5196 / 1299 / 2598 / 2598 Ion Cannons: 0 / 0 / 0 / 0 / 0 Laser Cannons: 192 / 192 / 192 / 192 Fighter Capacity: 4 squadrons Troop Capacity: 10 regiments Sublight speed: 20 Defiance Class Cruiser: Construction Cost: 30 Maintance Cost: 14 Hull Strength: 282 Shield Strength: 768 Turbolasers: 470 / 70 / 35 / 35 Ion Cannons: 40 / 40 / 40 / 40 Laser Cannons: 20 / 20 / 10 / 10 Fighter Capacity: 6 Troop Capacity: 4 Sublight speed: 19 Well these stats might change but they seem to be working pretty well so far.

It's a good thing the Rapora don't play fair then.

I finally got a scanner, now progress will be at a much better and faster pace. I hope.
