Okguys, I should be back at the begininng of April. Being forced to move again, and thats the soonest I will be at my new place. But when I get back, i will post with a vengeance!!! And just for the record, I thought of a common peice of weaponary that should be able to bring the Aklasp troops to their knees. If Stellar will allow it, that is.

Sorry guys, but my internet is donw for an unknown amount of time. If you guys want to go one wihtout me whilst I get everything at my end fixed, go for it. Ill catch up later.

The following is a list of some of the things I can make for the site on the store!! Tshirt, grey yellow and white (one of each) Mousepad Coaster Poster Pillow Bumbersticker Button Two types of hats Coffee cup (large and small) Beer Stein (For us drinkers) ........There is some other stuff to that I cant seem to remember right now. Im runnig on limited time however, due to lack of access to the intraweb for the next few days or so. But next time I am on, I will augment the list of everything i can make without upgrading the store. But if the store makes enough, i can upgrade it so that we can have lots more products, i.e. more then one of a certain item. Which would be nice in the fact that we wouldnt be so horribly limited in what products we have. Any profit after that would go to this site, obviously. Im not so much of a rat bastard that I would make money of of others hard work.

Well, I already have a shop at cafepress that we could use for SWR merchendice. Problem is, unless I upgrade the shop, we can only have one of each product. But thats still 50 different Items.

If you people pick a logo, and stick with it, Ill have a surprise for you all. EDIT: A non animated logo, that is.

Well, you guys could always just build your own emoticons. As for the color scheme, how about having different skins in say the user options, with several different color schemes. That way each individual user could see the site they way they wanted to.

Another thought on the cards. Insteadof dumping the new cards right into the same listings as the rest of the cards we already have, how about a 'new cards' catagory, so that we can more easily see what new cards have been added.

More orginizationof the cards section would be nice. It gets to be a real pain some days when one is searching for certain vessels/chars, and you have to look through ungodly amounts of cards to find the one card you are looking for.

First pic looks awesome, second pic needs better lighting and detail. But keep up the good work man! [egotrip] Im guessing you are referring to the almighty Admiral Hirotek of the GFFA! Those who face him fear him, those who befreind him feel safe under his wing! Even the late Admiral Ackbar himself would have bowed to his military genius!!! [/egotrip]

Tatooine was ages ago. Almost the same for Adumar. As for the Savla as Vathrkee, I figured it may have been a modified one. Ah well....

Well, cant say I didnt try. How was I supposed to know Savlas could enter the atmosphere?

Fett smiled as he saw the Repora forces move out in full force. He knew his troops were badly outnumbered, and with that massive warship hanging above the rear lines of the Reporan armies, they were heavily outgunned. Thankfully, Solo must have realised this, as the GFFA artillery began a brutal bombardment of the advacing Reporan lines. Fett watched as entire streatches of Reproan droids and warriors vanished in massive explosions. Fetts' remaining artillery peicies joined in, opening up even more holes into their lines. But Fett saw that it wasnt going to be enough. The Repora still had far to many troops and walkers for his army to deal with by themselves. Thankfully, they werent by themselves. "Order our forward lines to halt, and then fall back. Hovertanks and heavy battle suits are to cover the ground troops. Artillery, make sure the Repora think twice about following them to quickly." Fett ordered. He watched as slowly, his lines halted, and began a slow march back towards the main lines of the allied forces. The GFFA and Mandalorian artillery continues to pound the Reporan lines, but it seemed as if the Reporan commander fully intended on chasing his troops all the way back to their original lines. Fett smiled, and decided to teach the enemy commander the error of his ways. "Captain Sovleth, you may commance firing. Hit that line of troops as best you can. Then begin your run." he ordered. Fett looked to the sky, and smiled grimly as the battered hulk of the Wolfsbane, hovering a few kilometers above the enemy flanks, decloaked, and opened fire. ************************************* Avarice watched carefully as the enemy artillery pounder her advancing line of troops and walkers. But she had already calculated what the enemy forces could do. She already knew that it was to little, to late. Then she saw the mandalorian army halt their forward advance, and begin a slow march backwards. She watched them for a moment, and then smiled. The mandalorains were retreating. She knew enough history to know that the mandalorians had never retreated in any battle. And now she would show the galaxy that not even the might mandalorians could stop them. "Order our advancing forces to press the attack. Follow them all the way to their rear lines. Once they are under the firing arc of the enemy artillery, their flanks will crumble." she ordered, and she listened as her orders were relayed to her attacking forces. She turned back to her sensors, and watched as closely as her orders were followed. Then in the back of her mind, she could here to voice of the timeless one. Do not fail me... the voice said, and Avarice looked up, wondering why she had heard him say that. As she looked up, a cry of alarm rang out, and Avarices head shot towards her advancing lines just in time to see a large barrage of turbolaser blasts rip though them. She followed the blasts, and saw the immence hulk of a mandalorain cruiser hovering over her flanks. A cold hand gripped at her throat as she realised what had happened. The enemy commander had tricked her into releasing the bulk of her forces from the protective cover of the Aklasp cruisers' sheilds, and into the open, were they were easy prey for heavy guns of the warship. She considered her options, and cursed vehemently when she realised how limited they were. "Order our forces to fall back! Full retreat! Get them under cover of the sheilds! Have the Aklasp cruiser engage that warship, I do not want it to have free reign to bombard my flanks!" she yelled, and she watched as the tide of the battle turned against her. Her forces turned quickly, and began a fast march back to the protective sheilding of the Aklasp warship. As they ran, the enemy bombardment followed them, laying waste to the stragglers. She turned her head skyward, and watched as the Aklasp warship halted its attack on the mandalorian lines, and began to concentrate its fire on the warship. ********************** Solo watched his command holo carefully, and sighed when he saw that the combined efforts of the Mandalorian and GFFA artillery was notgoing to stop the advancing lines. His heart slowly sank as the feelingof immenent defeat came to him. If the Mandalorian lines fell, the battle was over. Then he saw the mandlorian lines halt, and begin to move bakwards towards thier original postitions. "What is fett doing? Why is he retreating?" Solo asked,and Leia shook her head. "He is outgunned Han. If he doesnt retreat, his forces will get annihilated. And if that happens, we are all done for." she said, but chiss officer looked up at them, and shook his head. "No, Mandalorains never retreat. Fett has a plan." he said, and Solo nodded slowly. Then, a new blip appeared on the holoboard, and Solo laughed out loud as the blip opened fire on the advancing reporan lines. "Ill be a hutts slime. Fett suckered them into the open. Thats a mandalorian warship pounding them." Solo said, and the Chiss officer nodded. "Like I said, Mandalorians never retreat." he said, and Leia smiled. Her smile widened as the Reporan lined turned and began to run back to the coverof the massive warship that had protected them from enemy bombardments. "Well, it lookes like Fett had given us some breathing room. Lets make the most of it." Hand said and everyone in the command room nodded. Han turned back to the holo, and studied the battle, then saw the massive enemy warship turn to engage to mandalorian cruiser. Han frowned however, when instead ofreturning fire, the Mandalorian cruiser continuedto assault the retreating troops, and began to move towards the massive cruiser. "Now what is he doing?" Solo wondered aloud, butno one in the room was able to provide an answer. ******************************************** Seryk watched in disbelief as the Wolfsbane decloaked and opened fire, tearing huge gashes into the enemy lines. Thier advance had all been one massive faintto pull the Reporan lines out of hiding. It finally looked like they had a chance to win this battle. Seryk continued to watch as the Reporan linesbegana hasty retreat to try and get away from the massive blasts that were laying waste to them. Then he saw the massiveenemy warship turn to engage the Wolfsbane, but instead of firing back, the cruiser instead began a headlong charge at the enemy vessel. And then Seryk remembered something Fett had mentioned to him after the Wolfsbane had crashed. It will nevermake it off this planet. Now the best we can hope for it is a mobile weapons platform. Seryk knew the vessel was inno condition to take on an enemy warship that was still at full strength. After a few moments more, Seryk realized what was going on. Fett was using the Wolfsbane as the galaxies largest battering ram, intendingto force the enemy warship to move, or risk being slammed into. But if it moved, it would expose the heart of the Reporan armies to enemy fire. Either way, Seryk realised that the enemy commander was now in a very bad situation. One that might prove to be the end of the battle.

Yah man, drawn does look a lot better. It looks a lot more like cover artwork then the stuff you had up before.

*continues shuffling* This is war. The only rule is, there are no rules.

"The Mandalorians had just bitten off more then thay could chew" *shuffles his deck of Sabaac cards* So Stellar, are you a gambling man?

Ah, ok. Just thought I would ask. I was actually hoping we would win that battle.

Whats going on with that space battle at the convoy?

Seryk sat in the chair of the Anti-air cannon, the fire ripping fom the guns at an astounding speed. A reporan starfighter flew right into the stream coming from his guns, and exploded violently. Seryk took a moment to wonder if it was the mandaloriabns skill with their artillery, or the amount of fire being poured into the sky that was keeping their lines from being smashed from above. The lack of starfighters was hearting them greatly, preventing them from using much of their weapons where they were most effective, against enemy troops. "Alright, everyone get ready. Enemy formations are advancing!" Fett yellled through the comm system, and Seryk loked to see a long line of Reporan walkers and troops emerge from the forests. Seryk wa sastonished that so many walkers had survived all the bombardments that had been rained down upon them. But he knew that he should have expected nothing less. That would have made the battle far to easy. "All remaining heavy artillery, focus fire on the enemy troop formations. Lets loosen them up a bit." Fett ordered, and Seryk hopped off the AA gun, letting another mandalorian take over for him. He walked to where he would get a better sight of the enmy troops, and was startled when the mandalorian guns opened up on them at full range. Even at that range, accuracy from the Mandalorian guns was astounding. Mulitple shots ripped into the enemy troops scattering them like rag dolls. Other shots seemd to concentrate on the walkers. But the walkers held fast, proving to be exceptionally resiliant to incoming fire. Seryk could tell they would have to use something heavier to deal with them, or concentrate all fire on them. As he was thinking about it, the reporan walkers returned fire, sending waves of plasma across the battle field into the mandalorain lines. Seryk was thrown as one blast hit the ground near him. He got up, and saw the bodies of several mandalorians scattered about. He got back to his feet, and turned back to the battle. He watched as the Mandalorian guns began concentrating on the walkers, and a pair of enemy walkers vanished in massive explosions. But he knew that all of them would have to fall before this battle was over. "All guns, concentrate on those walkers by groups! Try to find a weak point on them!" Fett ordered, and Seryk wacthed as all guns now concentrated on the walkers, tryng hard to bring them down. Another walker fell, then another, but only through simple firepower, not by the exploitation of any weakpoint. Seryk cursed silently, they were going to be forced to get into close combat with them one way or the other. "All forces, get ready to move out. its time to show these REpora what the mandalorains are all about." Fett ordered, and a large cheer rose up from the ranks of the mandalorians. Slowly, the mandalorain hovertanks moved forward, a long line of firepower meant to sheild the ground troops for as long as they could. Behind them lines of mandalorain heavy battel suits lumbered forward, their laser cannons primed. Finally, mixed into all of it, the mandalorian ground troops got into their positions. Seryk joined his troops at the very front, and raised his confiscated reporan sidearm. But after a moment of thought, threw it to the ground, and retrieved his lightsaber from his belt. He chose not to ignite for now though. That would wait until he wa in the thick of the enemy troops. As one, the mandalorian army began a fast paced march across the battlefield, cover fire from the remaining heavy cannons doing their best to protect them from the Reporan walkers, whcih were still moving forward at a steady pace. Seryk almost wished for a moment that Fett had decided to concentreate the heavy fire on the nemy ground troops. At least then the battle would have been slightly easier. But that was not the way of the mandalorian. "All forces, move out!" Fett ordered, and the line began to move. The final battle for Ord Mantell had begun.

Darktroopers, eh? My mandalorians shall not be outdone!!!!

I take it this means that Fett and I get to deal with Avarices' army?

Well, the repora cant offer military protection, and the empire cant offer technology. And its painfuly obvious that the empire cant offer military support. But as some help, I never said you couldnt offer combinations.

PWNED!! Totally PWNED!!!! MWAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!! That sucks man. But these things happen. Just gotta role with the punches. And as for the Diplomatic RP, Ill post as soon as I think of some information the Empire would have, that the Vathkkree would not have, but want.

Bah, Newer US vehicles aren't worth owning. Pieces of giant, overpriced plastic. Hence the reason I own, drive, and sink way to much money into an elderly Camaro. Terrible gas mileage, but I could broadside a large truck and not worry about getting injured in it.

Im holding my last ace for as long as possible. I dont feel like using up a one use object before I have to.

Ill leave them all well enough alone. My last 'trick' is more like a desperate attempt at salvaging a lost battle.
