YTU! This is a very complex case Mr Skywalker There are a couple of loose ends I'd like to tie up. !!!! ......then... (Repost I know, but how appropriate can you get hay guys!)

Your homepage is deeply disturbing. Are you a trekie?

BTW: I'm not knocking anyone's ideas SOCL!! All I intended to say is that in my oppinion your idea deviated a little from the whole 'conquering the galaxy' type of thing! Anyways, Scath, is this a serious idea you were thinking of actually acting upon, or just a 'what if?'

Bare in mind in the book it states somewhere that the forces of the Empire were 'plunged into confusion,' or something along those lines without the 'guidance' of the Emperor, (what ever that means...) But agree with Glandry: Ewoks BBQ

The other problem dude, is that your average planetary assualt would consist of more than one battle....

I'll be brief. Fenor means 'Spirit of Fire' in Elvish, he created the Silmarils that Morgoth stole, thus bringing the High Elves back to Middle Earth. He also created the Seeing Stones featured in the flims. His nephew Celelbrimbor created the Rings of Power after being tricked by Sauron disguised as 'The Lord of Gifts.' The Star of Feanor was on the doors of Moria, because the Dwarves of Durin traded with the High Elves, the Jewel Smiths, in nearby Eregion...

...honestly guys...ITT are one of the biggest multi national corporations in the world...Fela Kuti, as an African, wrote the tune to point out it's methods of trading are slightly unfair to his fellow Africans...etc etc...(Please note Jahled is not trying to start a debate on international methods of trade, he knows very little...it's just one god damn funky piece of music...)

This is getting extremely dark and disturbing. Elvis you live this side of the pond, SOCL you live that side of the pond...emmm...what does it all mean?

There's no need to aim to distantly! Whilst it's cool to dream about GB/rebellion crossovers, and the such; the basic structure of rebellion is fine, and is the only thing I reckon we concern ourselves about improving. Rebellion consists of two elements; basic gameplay and the tactical battle. All I have to do with the tactical battle is utter the word Homeworld, and you'll know what improvements canbe made there! As far as the basic gameplay is concerned, there is serious room for expansion, but do we want a radical overhall? The basic engine is fine; it's only drawbacks are in it's limitations, ie: there could be more missions, characters, facilities, factors (pirates, Vegetable Vong incursions, neutral system defenses, etc) , simple thing's like this. As far as making ground combat more realistic, there's no need to replicate GB! This is rebellion! Slight adjustments perhaps in regiments suffering damage like squadrons would be welcome, but having something like a ground-based tactical battle is at best unrealistic, and at worst shuving aside ideas that might just be possible if the opening lines of this thread might just be acted upon...

...couple of books as per normal, scattered around my bedside table, or in my despach bag...Stalingrad by Antony Beeevor, Enemy of God by Bernard Cornwall, (all hidden under a pile of stuff in French I can't read) and some Harry Potter book i'm forcing myself to read, but never seem to get into...

This has absolutely nothing to do with Star Wars but made me plunge a mouthful of lager onto my monitor for some completely unknown reason given it's so stupid, should you wish to submit hatemail to Jahled; you can do so by clicking here and waiting patiently...

...errr....ummm.....errr......ummm.... ...ho hum... Feanor or Feanaro in Quenya, the dude started all this nonsense....

Send me your email address and i'll send you a zip file with an endless amount of backgrounds, including the one you are after! Clickerty my profile, you must!

Fair be dude, we've known each long enough now to post without any ego attatchments! One very interesting point that site raises is the question of the aftermath on Endor after the second Death Star is destoyed. That's kind of what I meant about overkill/over analysis of what is ultimately GL's fantasy. We've all seen the films Armagedon and the other one where part of the metoer actually strikes...ok, picture that with the Second Death Star exploding over head, and well Luke, Wedge, Lando, Han, and the boys might just not be dancing the Ewok two-step when this happens hay boys! http://groups.msn.com/_Secure/0QQDiAmsTQH3dZMSh0b5PIc5n1nZgqKMz8mXPYyfMtHX!Is*IBZqtzXrHtyy3fP*iSaD5FmHafjhm098cY4R!uVaOmt8eZ59GOoCm2BIPfOs/boom.gif?dc=4675412957912627909 (The cool way didn't want to work!)

Yo Darthvader567!, welcome to our run-down bar in the outer rim!

Hello dude! Read the thread from the start and you will know where we are all calling from. BTW: Click on anything blue!!!!

I almost forgot...if you guys want to hear some of the Funkiest god damn grooves to come out of Africa, then check out Fela Kuti 'Black President;' re-issued on CD as 'Original Sufferhead' (despite not having any Polar Bears in Africa that i'm aware off!) Big band hardcore funk with no holds barred on lyrics like' Colonial Mentality, and the brilliant ITT (International Thief Thief...get it?)

It hurts my friend! If Scathe hadn't logged out I was about to tell him Star Wars was showing on ITV last night.... say have you seen Psycho, about split personalities? .... .... .....

Perhaps someone should organize an espionage mission and hack into the dark fiends at lucasarts! I've been here for over a year now and seen nothing of this Rebellion 2 crap....

I can't see Arsenal up there....you know, most of the French national team earning their wages when they're not on international duty.... Your countryman, Dennis Bergkamp, is a legend here in North London. I guess though, Dark Jedi, you guys in the States have some catching up to do with Football that the rest of the world has been getting on with.... though having said that I was seriously impressed with the USA in the World Cup...

...emm... nor me guys....

Which is exactly why I composed the question... Other people seem to be able to do it....caugh caugh....Mask...La_Forge... caugh caugh... I wonder how!!!

Given we're all still here...so to speak...it would be interesting if someone did approach them with a round up of all the ideas and stuff that's actually been done on this site. When I mean ideas, I mean all the crazy stuff like Star Destroyers being able to swallow up little ships like Corvettes, characters and special forces being able to capture enemy ships, characters converting to the opposition; you know, all the stuff we've been muttering about in these forums for god knows how long... ...and the stuff that's actually been done...I think the downloads section of this site speaks for itself....

Ok, some of you guys have been wandering where to get cool stuff for your avatars. You may or may not know the most common Star Wars GIFs you find on the web, but I found these pages for reasonable extensive collections that would be suitable, taking into account their sizes: Click here! ..and here!

As far as I can tell, regiment's combat attributes have no effect the outcome of missions either against them or on a system/fleet they are based. Your chances of destroying an alliance army regiment are no differant to destroying a Mon Calamari regiment; only the detection attribute has any effect on the outcome of the mission. The Defense Strength is a factor who's only concern in game play is in combat against other regiments. This is true of fighter squadrons. They have detection ratings as well. This is why it's virtually immpossible to sabotage anything in a large fleet, because with all those squadrons the combined detection rating goes off the meter...
