If you know a way to download flash videos, yes. Ugh, the Comedy Central site can't be 56k friendly. It slows down my machine when I view it and I have highspeed. So Tofu be sure to give us a link when you have a site up.

Just scanning over this thread quickily, Very quickily. I find I in no way regret having not bothered to see the show or movies.

Didn't I say anything yet? I thought for sure I had. Good riddance to the whole mess, now you can get back to your life.

It was heavily discussed by the planning councel. Mitth already wanted Mon Cal cruisers for the defenders on the moon but we reduced those to frigates and light cruisers. This way the addition of a large Mon Cal ship wouldnt be as devastating to the story line. Besides the moon base isnt in the best shape for an HQ with no life support. EDIT: Who thinks we should have another mass-chat thing to descuss what is happening from here on?

The can't dance commercialto go with that one. Far too much cologne...

OOC: I had to go back and look up the names of the Star Destroyers from the earlier post. lol

OOC: Sorry for the wait guys. IC Defender finally reached the bay they had first entered the base from. The Zoot forces had completed what they set out to do, now it was time to leave. Judging by the fire reports starting to come in from Stormtroopers near the bay, that timing was perfect. The officer in charge of the bay rushed over to him as he approached one of the landed Corellian Gunships. "General, we're starting to lose our infiltrated YVH droid forces. Some of them appear to have been recaptured. They may be headed here." Def stopped and looked at him as though he hadn't bothered to notice his presence before. "Begin our withdrawal. Spacetroopers with Alpha plan designation will remain behind to disrupt enemy forces. Begin recall of all Beta and Delta Spacetroopers." "At once General!" The officer snapped off a hasty salute and ran inside the nearest ship. Def remained outside the ship in the relative quiet of the bay. Troopers prepared the entrance corridors of the bay for defence as every so often more troopers, Zootlings or even YVH droids arrived from other areas where they'd been defeated. Concentrating deep within himself and on the crystals feeding him strength, he stretched out with the force. Lives, seeming so small an insignificant were moving about all through the base. A few brighter points stood out as force users, either belonging to his own force or the Q-branch teams. A small group of engineers in Scout Trooper armour rushed into the bay from the barricaded corridors. Their normal bright whites were fire blackened in places and broken in others. All were wounded in one way or another. The engineer team leader was still alive, hitching a ride on the side of a Spacetrooper who was missing an arm. They set down near him and saluted. "The bay Lieutenant indicated that you were successful." "Yes sir. We completed a visual inspection. Everything piece of equipment was destroyed. Most were reduced to ash and those that weren’t were not recognisable. I used low yield thermal detonators on anything that looked even remotely salvageable." "Excellent work Captain, get aboard and find some Bacta. I'm sure Zoot will appreciated the continued survival of soldiers such as yourself." The Captain nodded then started limping towards one of the Gunships, clutching the his side of his cracked and blood stained armour. The Spacetrooper saluted with his good arm. "General, though I am part of group Delta I request permission to re-enter the base. My armour will not survive space combat extraction with an arm missing." "Very well, I approve. If you need any more ammunition loaded for your remaining weapon, ask one of the regular troopers near the corridor." "Thank you General." Came the deep modulated voice. "For the glory of Zoot, and the Empire." "For Zoot and the Empire." Muttered Def more to himself once the trooper had moved off. There was something fundamentally wrong with that saying he knew but couldn't place what. The task at hand General... we can discuss any... thoughts you may have upon your return. Zoot. That presence in his mind never left him alone. He knew better than to fight that voice, it was the master. But perhaps someday if he could master these artificial force powers... He sensed the equivalent of deep dark laughter at the back of his mind. Both condescending yet welcoming the challenge. The Beta and Delta group Spacetroopers from the surface areas surrounding the launch bay entered through the Magcon field. Some jetted along on repulsors or thrusters and other landed and walked. They all headed for the aft sections of the Corellian Gunships. Plate sections lowered from their outer hulls becoming convenient places for the troops to latch on in preparation for flight. Each man grabbed handholds and magnetized their boots to the plate below as they stepped on. Once the first Gunship was carrying all it could, the ship lifted on repulsors. Def stepped inside his own vehicle and closed the hatch behind him then headed to the small bridge. He could sense the fighting near the entrance to the base growing more fierce each moment. The fist two Gunships, now loaded to full, drifted forward through the Magcon field and out onto space, engines blazing. He reached the bridge and looked out at the remaining vehicles in the hanger. Besides his ship two assault shuttles still remained to evacuate those holding the doorway. The Q-branch Force users were nearby though. Mitth was approaching fast and there was another with him. Those remaining would have to see to themselves. "Pilot, take us out." As the Gunship lifted and spun in place, he could make out the sparks of lightsabers cutting through the bay wall towards an undefended area. Then they were outside and driving up away from the moon towards the now battered looking fleets still locked in battle. An X-wing and two AB-wings came in to harass them, lasers and Ion cannon firing. An alarm sounded just before a torpedo streaked in and impacted the shields. The Gunship's return fire came thick and fast, damaging shields and punching a hole through one of the AB's wings. The fighters could do little to the ships fleeing the moon base and so turned back to the still numerous Tie starfighters. Back closer to the surface, the Assault Transports exited the hanger bay. An explosion silhouetted one for a second before it spiralled out of control and crashed back to the surface in the weak gravity. Other transports also began to lift from parts of the base as the Zoot forces abandoned their positions. One strayed too close to the Q-branch fleet and was hit by turbolaser fire from a Corvette. The VSDII Velocity, began a sweeping manoeuvre that would bring them and their escort screen around and behind the fleeing transports, stopping the Q-branch capital ships from attacking them. The crippled ISDII Hephaestus, missing it's bridge tower was already outbound along the same vector, laying down long range Turbolaser fire to deter pursuit. "Pilot, get us up near Hephaestus, instruct all other transport craft to form on the Destroyer as soon as they can." "Yes General." The emergency priority channel flashed to life with a signal from the Vic. "This is Velocity, scouts report incoming ships from the direction Venus. Two Mon Cal cruisers, one an MC-40 Light Cruiser and some kind of Heavy Mon Cal. Scanners put her at over three kilometres in length." "Where did they come from!? The only bases they have left are on Earth and Luna! We destroyed they one base they had in the Jovian moons." Defender wanted nothing more than to feed his surprise, anger, fear and hate into the force and use it to tear the new enemies apart. But with so little time and experience with the force he knew that it was beyond him. It was time to play tactics. He grabbed the com pickup and brought it to his mouth. "Velocity, this is the General. Do either of the new ships have gravity well generators?" "No sir it doesn't appear so." "Fine. I want you and your screen to increase speed and catch up with Hephaestus now. If they jump-" "Enemy ships entering hyperspace." The two Mon Cal Cruisers were dragged out of hyperspace by the Moon's gravity well just as the Zoot fleet had been. Because of the difference in approach angle the new arrivals appeared 120 degrees around the moon instead of right on top of the now fleeing force. "Huttsp-" "Captain, get your Destroyer up here as fast as you can, we can use Hephaestus for cover until the rest of our group jumps." "Understood General." The two cruisers began accelerating, firing heavy Turbolasers even beyond range while launching fighters. The fleet of ships that had come out from the moon base was in no shape to continue fighting however. The few corvettes that were undamaged moved to escort the larger ship, while the Frigates and most of the base fighters pulled back. Tie Raptors and Droid fighters screamed back to their carriers. The two Destroyers lined up, even as they continued to run, previously undamaged aft weapons firing. Though slower because of damage the ISDII still had the tougher shields. The Green bolts deflected harmlessly off the forward shields of the larger ship. The red bolts were starting to wear small holes in the destroyer's shields. "Gravity well detected!" "What? NOOO!" Defender screamed. "General! It's a gravity well power-up sequence but it hasn't reached full effect yet. It will be four minutes before it can become effective enough to stop our jump." "Are we clear of the Moon's well yet?" "Yes." "Commence jump immediately, straight for Jupiter. No more playing around." "Twenty...nineteen..." Hephaestus started taking additional hits to her hull and the stump of the bridge tower. A concentrated volley lit up her starboard side with a large secondary explosion as they lost an engine. It was still too little, too late. The entire fleet entered hyperspace even the badly mauled ISDII.

Odd Mitth, very odd. Man, my internet has been on the fritz lately. Who saw the movie 'Appleseed' when it came out awhile back? Anbody else seen Tank Police before? (Man haven't seen it in years) Some GTA:San Andreas tricks followed by the ususal rampage.

By captial punishment I assume you mean execution instead of the mandatory prison term that counties without the death penalty employ. If you can be 100% certain without any doubt about the person in question then I would be for it. Otherwise it really depends on the situation.

Current/Recent World Conflicts thread.

The fact that people proved their violence by attacking various sites after he made the comment instead of just say Protesting proved the Pope's point. It's just rediculous. With this kind of culture gap we're headed for a major global scale conflict. That's just the Iran - Israel conflict, then there's the Korea centered world war. *lightbulb* O.o I need to make some animated Gif's -
If there is anyone (Forum regular) who would like a slightly leveled character, PM me. I created too many char's way back when I was learning how to play and now don't have enough hits a day to play them all. (No, I keep them all far away from each other on the map to prevent accusations of Zerging.) The current one I'm thinking of making available has (At least) -Free running -Lurching gait (when dead, move as fast as a human) -Basic Fire arms -basic hand to hand (+ Axe proficiency? ) & others that I cant remember right now. The site is down at the moment so I cant look it up.

Tales from the New Republic wasn't bad either.

http://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=Thailand+coup Can't seem to find the Daily Show clip for the Thai coup on youtube. If you want to brave the pop-ups look for "No Vote Win" on the comedy central website. Making progress in Iraq Pope's comments -
Ok, now it feels like I'm spamming. The Hyroglyphs are a bad sign IHOP? how did that get there? Seperated at birth? Oopsie, I think I screwed up. Random enough for you?

But honestly, htere had to be litterally hundreds of copies of the original movies arround. And Lucas had to have destroyed all of them once the special editions came out.

The first few moments of battle were unremarkable other than the fact that Mitth seemed to be distracted. It seemed as if he were talking to somone else but there were no open com pickups and the blue skinned base Commander had professed he had no skill in the force. "You know, Def, that's pretty sacrilegious to mimic the voice of a man whose death you responsible for." The moment Mitth said that he was certain that the Chiss was trying to play some kind of mind game. Trying to throw him off balance. That or he had gone insane with the losses his force was taking. "You're losing your mind, Mitth. I don't know what you're talking about." Mitth's powerful kick to his chest cofirmed his suspicions. He had to be pulling off some kind of trick. Then the Chiss' distraction reached it's height and Def took immediate advantage. With one hand he activated the gauntlet lightsaber and with the other he used his sword to batter Mitth's aside. The lightsaber struck Mitth's left quad while the Vibrosword sliced into a blue right bicep. A grin tugged at the corner of Def's mouth knowing the injuries would severly hamper his enemy. He drew away intending to allow Mitth enough time to realise the extent of his wounds and perhaps panic. Instead of panic the other man's mouth drew open in an evil cackle and a torrent of force lightning flashed and flowed from fingertips filling the corridor. The Force energy cruch with enough power to launch him into the air. Armour bought him enough time the begin a rudimentary force absorbsion technique directing the power into a protective shield. Still, dangerous amounts of the power made it through wounding him in places. The journey through the air ended when he impacted a wall at the end of the corridor and slid down to the floor, energy still crackling arround him. It took concentration but the lightning was dispelled within seconds and he was back on his feet, crarging back down the hallway. Mitth now appeared to have aquired some armour but it wouldn't matter. He activated all of the lightsabers attached to various joints and locations on the armour. The two met with ferocios attacks and def seemed to have the advantage. Then the Chiss began to block, parry and anticipate in the same manner as a force user would. No! It's impossible, he can't use the force! He attacked even harder trying to regaint he advantage. But with a quick trist of the Vibroblade handle and a stab, Mitth put a low power blaster bolt into his chest armour. It had to be some kind of off-world blastsword derivitive. It shouldn't have added much more difficulty to the fight but yet it did. The fight was starting to last much too long and both were becoming badly injured as it dragged on. Then the needed interruption came. A blast so strong it must have shaken the entire base buckled support braces. Using the speed of the Force and before the blastwave reached them Def struck out at the closest supports with an extra joint mounted lightsaber. The explosion wave hit it a second later and the ceiling bagan it's colapse. He Force Pushed himself backwards into a side corridor as debris fell on Mitth. +++ Defender strode through cleared hallways headed back to the shuttlebay. "Status report on all forces." He said into the helmet com unit. A Lieutenant that had command of the bay area responded. "Enemy forces- er Force Uses landed in our bay with an escape pod. They fought their way past us and into the base. It looks like they killed the team headed for life support and communications. The Vault team reports that they achieved their secondary objective. Some of them have remained behind to make visual confirmation of destruction of the vault contents. Assault teams have been repulsed from the command areas with losses." "I'm returning to the bay, have a ship ready for me. Orbital status!" "We've lost the ISD we converted into a Droid carrier and the enemy fleet has used a special weapon to destroy the bridge tower and some of the upper superstructure of out ISDII." "Have any Stormtroopers remaining aboard ship secure it and get it outbound. It could still be of use." "Yes General." "And have it's gunners keep firing. Use their own judgement, they're not droids." "Understood." They hadn't secured any of the secret's of the base commander's vault but they had done the next best thing. With the contents of the vault destroyed they had prevented Q branch from discovering the secrets and hints to Zoot's destruction that only he now knew. Even if Mitth had logged copies of his own work, the devices Def had built of modified during his time there had no construction plans of manuals to them. Now they just needed to fight a war without fear of superweapons.

An Early P4 1.6 (?) GHz A 9200 Video Card that I bought just to play Halo PC. The "expanded" hard drive space of One 13GB and one 38GB Harddrives. An upgrade From Windows ME to XP that I'm still working the bugs out of. A Battlestar Galacitca 'Draids' sensor screen saver. And my giant semi-alsmost-organised filing system. Not bad for something that was assembled in 2001. (I need a new computer. )

Does that top one deal fire damage at the same time?
