Nice question. Return of the Jedi doesn't mention any numbers. I remember being able to count 24 ISDs and the Executor in the very begining of the battle. There is a scene where the Rebel fleet turns around and gives a brief shot of the entire imp fleet. Unfortunatly, the Imps are too far away to make a certain guess, but I wouldn't have putten the Empire's numbers at more then 30 ISDs. As for the Rebels, no more then 3 Calamari cruisers were seen at any time, but consider this: DS2 could fire one destructive shot every hour. Imagining the Imperials had enough brains to take out the strongest ships first, they would have wacked about ~3 Mon Cals. Including the Home One and add a few more to be totally sure - I'd say no more then 6-8 Mon Cals. I know it's an educated guess, but that's my thought on the subject.

What are these lies to my good name? Like all (normal) people, I digress from Star Trek, but I have a mild liking for the Borg (as I do with all that is EVIL ). Mind that, the point is that such changes are possible, so it should be fairly easy to simply convert the Rebellion any way you can think is possible. I, however, am forced to use mostly existing races and forces, as to make up one force requires lots of pictures, characters, ships and ideas (and I can't really make up an entire space empire)... or can I

Hi. Let me first say I haven't been active in the forums yet. However, I've been playing SWR for over two years now and have only recently discovered the Resource Hacker. It was then that I got this crazy idea... At first, like most people, I've been fizzling with RebEd, but it soon wasn't enough - the TC's didn't record everything I've saved and the entire thing would be messed up when I would load it again. With the resource hacker, I've got an idea to TOTALLY alter one side of the game to be someone else. That is when I've completed my first "total" Total Converter for the war between the Galactic Empire and the Borg Collective... Now, a few weeks later, the Rebels build ships named "ZR-9781" and even the briefing is redone, so your "Borgish" droid refers to "Species 45873" (The Empire). That was just the beginning. The tactical battle begins with the customary greeting: "We are the Borg..." and after I've done totally remodelling the game resources, I am planning to do more sides. Once I redo all the needed files, I'll save them and start doing on a few other powers. The four "extra" I have in mind are: The Borg, Zarrin's Empire, Thrawn's Empire and one race I've completely made up. When it's all done, it should be possible to make the Empire some other race simply by copying a few files into the right folder and PRESTO! Now you have Thrawn's finest men fighting the Borg Collective. So, I want to ask you people if you are interested in contributing to this glorious cause. It probably won't be up for download on the Internet (on account of several files being 10+ MBs), but I could put up all the needed resources to be added and tell people where to put what. Questions, suggestions, thoughts… Feel free to comment.
