Tnx Evaders99. Hopefully delay won't take too long. I am looking forward to this ...

Hello, I am looking for Warlords 0.5 but can't find download site. Last news on the main-page was posted on February 8th. Is this mod version available anywhere? Tnx a lot.

I think Ivan_R meant how much RAM do you have... That's important thing when it comes to this game and mod in particular...

Try any Radeon 95xx series. They are not expensive, there are version with even 256MB RAM and they are great. Beside this i would recommend adding more system memory.....

Ok here is the list of my favourites : - Honor Harrington (series - they are all very good) - Insurrection, Crusade, Shiva Option and In Death Ground (there is an edition collecting all of these in one volume) Also good SF books on this subject (although they are not space-combat oriented) are Adventures of Miles Vorkosigan, by Lois McMaster Bujold.

As for the question is "Destroyer" a proper name for a gigantic gun-bristling starship..... Destroyers didn't exist until torpedo-boats became more popular in WWI an Japan-Russian wars. Fast moving and armed with highly devastating weaponry (although they had to fire them from close-up in those days) this ships were able to wreak havoc among larger capital ships - they were manouverable enough to avoid direct fire from heavy-caliber guns and fast enough not to be caught by automatic weaponry. Destroyers were built as a countermeasure for this menaces and they proved very successfull. It wasnt until WW2 that destroyers became the backbone of the navies of that time. They were the middleman between heavy/escort cruisers and battleships (both "pocket size" - Like Scharnchost and "full size" - like Bismarck). They did well until missiles came onboard ships. After succesfull sunking of Egyptian destroyer by means of surface-to-surface missile (fired from the ships that descended from torpedo-boats > missile boats) destroyers began to be replaced by a frigates. Frigates are now ships of choice for almost any modern navy - fast, reliable, heavily armed and armoured ships able to hold their own against almost any opponent. Modern frigates are even stronger designs than destroyers of ,lets say, 1970's. Today only examples of destroyers in modern navies are Arleigh Burke class (USN) and possibly few types still in service in RN - russian (ex-soviet) destroyers i don't count because they had a very different classification and were called destroyers only by western navies. So lets get back to the subject.... Although those who know about ships do see sense in stuff like FFG, DDG etc, i don't think that the proper way to show all the firepower and brute force of a vessel (to the general public i mean) is to name it either with a codename or calling it a frigate or a battleship. But when you say a destroyer, and as such a star-destroyer then everybody knows what is it all about. I agree that ISD is not in the class of destroyer but lets not forget that every navy (then why not the imperial navy also) has its own classification of vessels (having seen the gigantic ships in the mod i can understand why ). Germany never named their battleships battleships because they were forbidden to have them by terms of peace treaty of Versay, but they called them pocket-ships and light-cruisers because they had the appropriate tonnage, but they were more powerfull than any heavy-cruiser or battleship that could be used by RN in Northern sea. Israeli's have their corvette class (can't get the name right now ) that is as powerfull or even more powerfull than any frigate that the navies of the Mediterranian sea can field. Same goes to Sweden and Norway. So i think that the ISD was called destroyer in the first place only because it sounded dreadful, menacing and powerful and i don't think that anybody had proper vessel classification in mind. By the way if anybody is interested in great books about space fleet combat take any book by David Weber. They're great...

I think that Han was concerned about huge Corellian ships for one reason only > It seems that Corellians tend to build awfully fast ships (i mean they name them BlockadeRunners right) and it would be a hairy situation for Millenium Falcon to escape them. As for ISD, you just had to move fast, get rid of strikecraft in pursuit and jump before Interdictor shows up....

Tnx... Well i guess i'll wait for the version of Warlords with CloneWars included. Tnx again

Just downloading th new CloneWars release Hope this means that full Warlords release is close P.S. Just wondering is it possible to have both CloneWars and Warlords Mod on the same time? Are there possible problems with this? Tnx

I hope you all don't mind me asking but there are some awesome ships in this mode i haven't seen before. And most of them are on the imperial side (my favourite ) Where on net can i find info on ships like : Avenger destroyer Staging cruiser (the one with v shaped wings pointed downwards - huge,huge ship) Titan cruiser Torpedo sphere to name just the few. Tnx

Tnx to everybody for helping me out regarding this map. When i changed my starting position i was able to play normaly.

Tnx Calavan, i'll try it out (this is a most probable cause of my early destruction because i always start as a player 1) Darth Felth whats GCO? Would like to try it out. Sorry for not replying sooner but i had some other things that required my attention (what can i say some things just can't get on without me ).

Hi Evaders99, I'm not having problems with harvesting but with surviving Radiation kills me so fast that i am not able to build anything to protect me (i assume shield ships are good for this right?). Is there a way to survive this map long enough to engage an opossition ? Wherever i move my ships they just get destroyed. Any tip would be appreciated. Tnx

I was checking out different maps and i chose one name Yuuzhan > (i presume it is a Yuuzhan'Vong homeworld). Because i don't remember the correct map name (and i'm not at my computer at this time) i'll try to describe it : You are jumping out near the bright yellow planet (pretty large one), and there is some spacedust and meteors around it. All in all it remains me greatly of the original Homeworld mission of sneaking up to Imperial research station but facing the deadly Sun radiation. It seems same hear although i am completely unable to find my way and shelter my forces in dustclouds (is it possible to do that?) Great map, full of atmosphere, but..... Is there a way to survive initial deployment because i get destroyed in a matter of minutes, out of 10 harvesters 8 are dead in a 50-or-so seconds, then goes main harvester ship and space base I can see ships being bombarded and heavily damaged by radiation but i am unable to do anything. I tried building shield generators but just didn't manage to build them fast enough Tnx
