They could maybe update like that through vetrancy, but I don't see why they would have them become hero units. I would think hero units could only be characters and their ships. I think Nevets has a valid point. It should be phrased with "veterancy" because if you say hero status it may get misinterpreted. 1.) They think you mean it becomes a hero, which they probably wouldn't want. or 2.) They don't realize you mean veterancy when you say hero. or 3.) They interpret it correctly.

A very nice trailer. It shows larger scale battles than I believe have been shown in footage yet (Coruscant battle in particular) in space and on the ground. Also reaffirmed are the Battlefront-like command posts where I'm guessing troops are dropped. The Sarlaac was awesome! Saw the galactic planetary view, which appears to be 3d. Very neat.

It could also be that Delphi can't release any more info at the current time. Just because Delphi isn't posting and giving us info does not mean that he/she isn't browsing these forums once a week or so. Lack of evidence is not evidence of lack.

Your question #1 is one that I want asked as well. 2.) Will you have flagships for space fleets? If so will you get to name your flagship?

? You are not free where to build your buildings (at least you were not in Games Convention alpha version). There are special "hard-points" you have to control and then you are free to build up mineral processors, bacta tanks, defense structures etc. I didn't say you placed it there I said them. Its like having a hospital bed in the front door You'd make your sick person sicker and spread the sickness around.......if your troops had a disease from the Sarlac it would spread fast. Ummm.... You don't get sick from the Sarlaac... it eats you. The positioning is a bit weird. It almost makes it Battlefront-ish with the reinforcement points and healing places out in the open and all.

I'll let you know when it comes in the mail tomorrow or Friday. Edit: It came today (Saturday). If it hadn't been shipped USPS I would have gotten it much sooner. This isn't about gameplay, but upon openning the dvd box thing I first noticed the four cds (get the dvd version). Also when looking for the cd key I noticed the EaW ad on the back cover of the manual. I'll make a new post when I discuss gameplay after I have gotten to actually play it.

No, but I'm guessing there will be different multiplayer campaign objectives that you can pick from that can lead to varying lengths of multiplayer campaigns. Maybe there will be a multiplayer campaign where the rebels can "win" by killing the DS.

Agreed. The purpose of trailers is to hype a game in my opinion. If a trailer doesn't reveal new info then you shouldn't be disappointed because that is not their function.

Yes they were just guessing. Planetary bombardment will not likely be in the game. See above post for our policy on rumors. ^^^

Each fighter is one fighter. When it is destroyed, it is destroyed. Instead of building squadrons of fighters you build flight groups instead.

Obi-Wan: This is the last time I let Anakin decide our form of entertainment. "Extreme Limbo" is not my kind of game.

Exactly i'm asking everybody that wants to talk on MSN and they have no clue as I. http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y292/GhostlyPolovnik/EAW%20Trailer%202/eawt23edited.jpg and if you downloaded it, its at :38-:39 and go frame by frame by pausing and using the arrow keys going left or right. I was guessing its a resource gathering at a control point but someone said it might be a radar thingy ? Don't quote me on this but to me it looks like it could be an AT-ST. Edit: I watched the trailer and did it frame by frame. Whatever it is it was rotating in place, so it may be some kind of building versus a unit. Could be a building unique to a planet, like a farm building or something.

Only 11 more to go. I think we'll hit 300 by Christmas easily now that more info should be coming out with Battlefront 2 being released and all.

Demos do not come out on a CD (for pc anyway unless you subscribe to a gaming mag.). They are usually downloadable from the site and a few file-download sites such as Fileshack and Fileplanet to name two.

very true.. i guess ill just build a DS and blow some up that i dont want... hey does anyone know if you can build multipul DS's? You can only build one DS. There has been no mention as to whether you can build another one after the one you have gets blown up.

Naw man. Ghostly is a great admin. I have had 0 problems with him. Keep up the good work Ghostly and good luck on catching up with Fosh for the post count.

We're finally getting more details and videos about this game. I have to go soon so I can't go into much detail, but I will mention that the Dwarves have the GLA ability to go through tunnels across the map. Definitely an awesome ability and it fits the Dwarves well.

Well I guess that makes a case for fighter squadrons being stationed on planets for planetary defense.

I'd be fine with a pop cap that is based on the number of planets under your control. Obviously the more planets you have, the more units you can have. Maybe some of the planetary bonuses will be pop cap increases above the norm as well? (Coruscant for one)

Yoda: When drugs you do, so good you will not look eh? heh heh Thrawn: It never fails... just when I start examining the art...I wonder if Vader will do a favor for me... Palpatine: Well you see Anakin... the last clone didn't take too well to my possession and the suspenders that hold my legs on are starting to slip.

When in Star Wars has a squadron of fighters stayed together for a conflict? They always were breaking into their flights and going round in groups of 2, 3, or 4 in combat. As Swiftdraw said, they would be more of a target if the "squadron" size was 12.

Maybe you could edit the second question to say: We know that Star Destroyers come with squadrons of fighters included in the cost. If those are lost, are they replaced from the Star Destroyer itself or do we need to buy them from a space station and manually load them onto the Star Destroyer? Just a suggestion

Wow that's great news. Thanks Delphi
