They can't, one-to-one, under the game's unaltered settings. So I know not where you are getting this.

No, when I last played rebels a couple of years ago I seem to remember heavily damaged Mon Cal's taking yonks to repair. In my gameplay experience, the lower the damage control rating, the quicker the ship repairs itself after a battle. Transports are easily destroyed because they have very low hull and shield ratings- nothing to do with damage control. Damage control doesn't really have any significance during an actual tactical battle; that's the shield rate your watching ebb and flow, and once that's gone, the hull value being blasted away with subsequent loss of fire power, drives, etc. As an example, Cain made a TC where he revamped the CC-9600 Frigate to a 'Nemesis,' Cruiser, featuring advanced nano-self repairing technology, and with a damage control of one. Give the TC a go, and you'll see how it works!

After A New Hope for a lot of us, SOCL dude! Whilst the original film was a brilliant piece of film making on GL's behalf, the general feeling is that tESB was and has been the best of the lot, especially amongst non-SW obsessed film critics, which wasn't made by GL. RoftJ, which was, was simply daft towards the end, with the Ewoks and all, and certainly not a film as measurable as the previous two. Whilst I, being a Star Wars nutcase, could sort of tolerate and forgive GL for the three prequals, they were ultimately pale shadows of the first two films, despite all the flamboyant special effects etc; they all lacked that special ingrediant of the original film and subsequently in ESB, which was something we had never experienced before. One film review I read simply said of Revenge of the Sith (anag.) which made me chuckle.. [/i]

I've always thought that damage control worked the other way round, with a higher value taking more time to repair; hence the Mon Calamri Cruiser indeed being 'difficult to repair' as stated tin the manual.

Very nice. That was me your age, but without the headphones ------------------------------------------------------ Search your feelings, Lord Vader.. http://www2.b3ta.com/host/creative/9805/1177876326.jpg

Ha ha ha, very cool! But wrong thread. Oh yea! Thanksiness Eagle! *Edits*

Wait until you are ten years older M dude! Trust me, you'll be older and a bit more wiser to life than perhaps you might be now. I say that as a mate. Very fun, but very dangerous. Live a bit without the obvious risk, and learn about roads before hopping onto one.. Been there, been let off; experienced mates get seriously hurt, On that cheerful note, Tribs has been active: Sopwith X-Wing, c. 1917 Fokker V6 "TRI" Fighter plane

Even at light speed it's twenty years away.. and given this speed is never going to be possible for humanity, or us getting as far as the end of even our own 'little' solar-system, the prospects look bleak for genuine contact for this world. I did read something in the New scientist not so long ago basically saying the time was about right for launching probes to planets like at this distance due to the gravitational advantages of our own planetary bodies, but of course can't find it. It is in their archives, somewhere.. Just to chuck in the realistic physics here, but if we ever got a starship to that now redunant planetoid, Pluto, it would have achieved 1/72,000th of the size of our own solar system; ie: nowehere fast. At our own sun's gravitational influence's extreme edge, it wouldn't even be the brightest stella body in the sky. Just a distant spec, still exerting it's influence. Faster-than-light interstella travel? Emm.. where is everybody. Even a very conservative one hundred million years for an interstella civilization to florish and conquer/contact the stars, or even leave any discernable trace hasn't happened, unless you proscribe to conspiricies like Roswell, 9/11 was a Bush plot/my grandad didn't witness Nazi-holocaust camps, etc. Where are these advanced civilations? We should have detected even the slightest traces of their 'time travel' by now. They've had all the time in the universe don't forget if you believe breaking the rules of physics is a practical alternative to the reality in front of us.. Edit:The article I couldn't find last night, or some of it.. Oh and another one from the same learned journal, perhaps rubbishing half of my post, perhaps not..

Indeed, it's interesting stuff, more here from Newscientist.

Nice find! Needless to say i'm crap at it. JH!! What can be said from a region where language looses it's meaning.. though the TIE desk is cool!

Well, thanks to "Slick Willy" (former President Clinton) the armed forces are a shadow of the former self. Good ol' Ronny Reagan, built up a 600 ship US Navy to keep us (and the free world) safe. Those were the days ... But, it's nice to know we're appreciated every once in awhile. Enjoy your freedoms J! And you too world! I know I do Absolutely Tex fella! You get the impression Bill's not going to have a super carrier named after him don't you? Comparing our two Navy's is mind-blowing in itself. We've got two active Aircraft carriers (and one moth-balled) each with a capacity of about 20 fighter jets, and a couple of helicopters, you guys have 11 active duty aircraft carriers, all of which our super carriers, with a capacity of about 80 fighter jets!.

An enemy would have to get to you guys first, which really isn't going to happen is it.. This list is simply staggering! Compare it say to the next largest Navy, which I think is still the Royal Navy I think being your friends is a good idea!

A good couple of years ago when I was a courier, I mentioned an experience in central London overtaking a motorized-desk, which was part of some corporate promotion. I seem to remember one or two of you not taking me seriously.. This was it Though the site itself seems to be down.. Edit: A shed, skip, boat and sofa on wheels all have a race This is hilarious!!

Very nice first post there Anyway, buy me a house and I'll finish it in a day Hahahahaha

I, like a few older lurkers I guess, voted the 1977 option. I'm a 30-something and there will never be the original sense of magic and wonder seeing Star Wars for the first time had. Remember, there was simply nothing like it before, on silver screen or TV. I'm not knocking any developments since, personally, I consider ESB the best of the lot; but for sheer personal experience seeing it the first few times was for me the fondest of memories..

Quite brilliant, Lord Vader! The style is bound to catch on http://www2.b3ta.com/host/creative/9805/1177327961.gif
