That's true SOCL. It is like a mafia.. until they actually do anything to your life, liberty, or property, you have no case against them. However, no one is stopping you from making your opinion known, or preparing in case of self-defense, or deciding to leave this church if you want to. Scathane, rights defined by law are what matter. You don't have a right not to be offend... the way political correctness is going, everyone feels the government should protect them from any kind of criticism or difference of opinion. Its disgusting. If you can't handle the heat, get out of the fire. I'm sure you can find other people who you can agree with. Check out the liberals on the west coast.

I don't believe you should be beaten up by pro-American patriots anymore than you should be beaten up by anti-American critics. However, none of your rights are being violated. If you can't deal with your church's opinions, I suggest you find a new one. If the police aren't protecting your rights as an individual, whether pro- or anti-, then there are some serious problems to discuss.

Take the pirating converstaion somewhere else. Topic Closed

Interesting story. As a private institution, your church can express any opinion it wants on any issue. This is not a matter of "seperation of church and state" but a "right to free speech" issue. As an individual, you don't have to listen to any of this. However, the church as a group has the right to say whatever it wants. I don't believe anyone who doesn't support us is evil. Though certainly those who are so radical to believe that we are the source of all evil and should die for this, these people should be stopped. Internationally as well as home, there are people who are anti-American. They don't like America as a superpower, a military and economic stronghold, a defender of freedom of speech and religion, or even as a center of capitalism. Some don't like our "foreign policy" (meaning they don't like Bush... our foreign policy hasn't changed at all really). Some people don't like our standard of living or our choice of entertainment. Do I believe that America is the greatest nation? Sure I do - I was born and raised here. But do I believe that we are perfect? No, every people have their faults... every nation has their strengths and their weaknesses. Do I believe we should force our opinion on others? No, we have considered choices carefully and (thought not always right in retrospect) we take actions when they threaten our liberty and our sovereignty. Each of these countries have the right to stop American ideas, American products, American culture from advancing on them. But obviously the world wants America as a part of the world. I'm sure Canada has made their choice to work with us. Such things as the North American free trade have made both our countries better. Even China, whose holdout against capitalism has been one of the longest, is starting to change. Booming economic districts have turned southern China into a serious contender in the world market. Finally, here's my last opinion. Is patriotism wrong? Certainly not... can you truly claim not to be patriotic everytime someone slams your nation? Can you ignore the nationalistic stereotypes that people say? Can you say you'd rather be in another country than where you are? Is jingoism (sp? - look it up, there's a big difference between this and patriotism) wrong? Yes... that is what influencial leaders have used throughout history to spread their evil. Hitler and the NAZIs to the Japanese and their suicide planes... all are shown signs of jingoism. Patriotism displayed in songs, writings, flags, events of July 4th.. these aren't jingoistic. They aren't saying that Americans are the best and should use pump up America to control everything. People are at these events to show they believe in America and what it stands for. Our Independence Day isn't to harass everyone into believing America is above anyone else, it is to remember those of our history that had to struggle to gain their freedoms. Our founding fathers are celebrated, as is our country, for even though individual Americans may disagree on certain issues, I'm sure none of us would be talking without the dedication of many Americans who have been a vast part of America remaining free. (Again, sorry for the rant. But you bring up an issue that I like to comment on, and I'm proud to be here)

Question answered here

Have the same settings exactly or the game will not work. This does not allow anyone to cheat. So if you use RebED, tell your friend to load exactly the same cards. Or better yet, you can distribute all your changes as a .REB file (Load Settings feature)

Mainly they overstep their bounds when it comes to player involvement. (I'll just delete my rant here and sum everything up below) They have no regard for seperation of OOC and IC. - All I have to say on the issue.

Wouldn't mind some help on cards.. since the progress on cards is null.... Oh well, Venix.. have fun on your vacation from the Combine

What Trej said Seriously, I like to keep my online profile away from my RL. Call me paranoid or something... Now on the other hand, if someone wants to offer me a job, then we may discuss this in private

The Jedi symbol was 8 spokes... Palpatine desecrates this symbol by removing 2. Thus 6 spokes is the Galactic Empire symbol.

Its called Supremacy in the UK. You can probably find it in your local game shop in the bargain bin.

Updating Rebellion's graphics would require an entire rewrite of the code. Sorry. Rebellion 2 will probably never be produced, but we're talking with a programmer about moding a game he is working on. Check the Rebellion 2 board. And finally, Homeworld rocks! http://swnr.themaw.net Gotta love it

SW:Rebellion is a Windows program. It is designed to run in Windows with DirectX. Obviously XP has several changes which make Rebellion unworkable in its environment. You need to set the program's compatability mode to Windows 9x and it should work just fine.

The point of the Rebellion 2 discussion is: 1) We know LEC has no interest in making a sequel. 2) We do have an interest in it. 3) We have someone interested in programming it. Currently we are looking towards JediGreg's program to be an independent game. Given enough tools to mod, we at SWR would be working on a mod to turn his game into Star Wars. He would not be marketing a "Star Wars" game and we would not be selling a game. All and all, a pretty good proposition. We just have to wait until Greg gets up on his feet again. Granted, this could take years to develop, but we've wait this long.... patience is a virtue.

??? They look like professional drawings to me. I doubt they actually got anyone to pose in front of a camera.

A Star Wars online simulation. Basically you play around in their client, join groups, roleplay, have some fun. I haven't had fun in the game with continued abuse of players from administration, but go ahead and try it. If you're looking for a smaller community, more commited in having fun and more involved, check out the Galactic Empire: Star Wars Community - SWCE (http://www.swcempire.com). Stratus and I have been working with them from quite a while now... its my home away from SWR.

Download Daemon Tools and mount a Virtual CD Drive. Rip an ISO of the Rebellion CD and load it into your virtual drive.

Extract zip file to RebED directory. Rename dllentries.txt to dllentries.org. Rename dllentries.war to dllentries.txt. Fire up RebED and go to Load Settings. Pick the Warlords file and let it install. You should receive a message that RebED isn't the latest version, but trust me, it is. All goes as planned, you should now have everything installed.

At some point, Lucas decided to make this movie as part of 9 trilogy in 3 movie installments .. thus the episode titles. What better place to start then in the middle of the whole thing? This is in media res - in the middle of things - for a story. I don't think it would be Star Wars without it. Of course, the prequels will never be as good as the classics, but that's just the way things go. He has said he is not doing the sequals.. guess he'd be probably too old to finish them anyway.

Time to copy the original DLLs back and start over!

Remind me to kill the Fleet Admiral for taking Imperial property... after he kills the Vong and the Rebels of course

Hmm.. all the ships we have aren't from a bird's eye view. Sorry. Good luck finding pics though.

Wow, nice mod! Next time, make sure your subject notes this topic as PICS (pictures heavy topic) and what-not. Anyway, thanxs for visiting! Hope to see this mod come to completion.

USA! USA! That's all I have to say.

Sounds interesting. I wish you the best of luck on this endeavor and hope to see it come to completion.
