Is that saying there are two groud maps per planet? In campaign mode?

this is a great place to start if you want to learn more: http://www.w3.org/XML/ Simplified example would be: <?xml version="1.0"> Armorment Heavy Turbo Lasers Turbo Lasers Ion Cannons Missile Tubes To intimidate and control A few months prior to the battle at Yavin Super

All over the net. just search for XML

May I see a copy of that NDA please? Id hate to get banned for breaking an NDA without knowing I was doing so.

I agree. Thank you very much. It helps a lot.

I agree. (Refer to my post several back). Its just a case of having to change expectations. Happens all the time. I'm sure many people were thinking this game would go up through ROTJ and then the first expansion would be Thrawn and then the second would be New Order. Well folks, that isn't the case. Now we get to kill ewoks in the expansion pack. So be it. This game is going to be great, that is why we are on the forums posting like maniacs.

things like this aren't Petro's fault. Its LEC who can't keep track of their own timeline and such. Petro has to go along with what LEC tells them. If LEC tells them things that are wrong (based on their own accounts) then what is Petro to do? Research the facts and shove them in their producers face? Hardly.

I just woke up, looks like I missed a lot while sleeping. Anyways, I haven’t read a single person saying this game has failed, I think its just a matter of wrong expectations. A lot of people thought that based on “you can reenact classic battlesâ€

Is it realy that easy? Can we take the ISD and increase its size by 11 and turn it blue in there also?

Yes, lancers and defenders too please. Even with ceptors, awings + xwings will tear up imperial fighter escorts. Maybe we can target a-wings with the death star...

Yeah, I agree. I think the question is misleading. Of course the game has to be balanced. I think what is inferred is that all the units match up evenly. The MC80 = ISD, etc. But the existence of the DS already shows a departure from that sort of thinking.

Yeah, i know what you are suggesting Vader, I just think its unlikely. From a star wars standpoint, the imperials wouldn't even want Reb ships. From a rebel standpoint, they would need a very large force to forcfully take control of the larger imperial ships after disabling it.

"The first four Executor-class ships were constructed in the months following the Battle of Yavin and the destruction of the first Death Star. Before the Battle of Yavin Imperial Navy engineer Lira Wessex designed these sleek, dark, immense vessels to inspire dread in any possible opponent." "The Alliance brain trust of General Jan Dodonna and engineer Walex Blissex developed the A-wing starfighter after examining the role of speed in the Battle of Yavin and the sleek fighters developed by the Tamuuz-an. The top-secret result of their experimentation was the A-wing, the fastest vessel of the Galactic Civil War. " "Although the Interceptor only made its appearence in Return of the Jedi, the Star Wars Sourcebook (for the Star Wars Roleplaying Game) has stated that the Interceptor has existed at the time of the Battle of Yavin, where Imperial Star Destroyer's 6 TIE squadrons was a squadron of Interceptors (4 squadrons of standard TIE Fighters, 1 squadron of TIE bombers)." “The first hastily-converted MC80 star cruiser appeared shortly before the Battle of Yavin. Soon, many of these vessels were in service with the Rebel Alliance, providing a much-needed boost in military power.â€

Thanks Delphi, off to buy my monitor....

Vehical theft is a hero skill we saw on land units. I think perhaps capturing ships can only be done by heros?

Well i think it will most likely be in, since we know stat modifiers exist based on heros. Adding an experience modifier would not require much additional coding at all. And like its been said, its a pretty standard feature for RTS at this point. I hope this question gets asked at the chat.

You would have thought. But apprently not.

Can we please stop locking and unlocked threads and then relocking threads? The damage control value of doing so is zero. A simple "Please stay on topic" post would be sufficient. Damage can rarely be undone. And the fans on these forums who are simply here to chat and speculate freely about this upcoming game(The majority), should not be the ones having to deal with the consequences of secretive behind the scenes politics. Let the chat run its course. The constant moderation interference has drawn way more attention to the threads than ever would have been if left alone. Thank you.

I agree. I was ussing numbers that can't be disputed. Like I said, I suspect the real numbers are much higher as well. But even with dulled down number of guns and a gracious 3X shields for the Mon Cal, it still is 10-15X more powerful. If I were to make a blanket guess, I'd day an SSD could take out about 30 Mon Cals, but that would be very hard to deal with in game. I do however think it can be given the stats I suggested. As powerful as 15 Mon Cals and Expensive as 20? As long to build as 25?

Might want to make sure there are still 6 spots, I know I posted but never got added to the list. Might be a few others aswell.

I think that 1up editorial is a bit diecieving. Some of those sentenses are hard to tell if the author is simply ranting or giving actual confirmed information. Plus it is very old and I am sure the features have changed (some added some removed) since then.

My mother always told me to avoid discussing polemics and politics, she called them peepee and said never pee on anybody it will only get them angry. Thank you for unlocking this Cain. Im moving this over from the other thread that was locked (I hope that is ok with everybody - modified it to support "The SSD is only a rumor" theory) I put together some numbers to show how strong the SSD is actually suposed to be. Far more than 2 ISD + Fighterwing.

Well we did find those pics of the stormies with black and red shoulder pads (Jan had a name for them but i dont feel like going and finding it right now). I think they can only be one of two things: Experience or Upgrades. However, it was said that upgrades would instantly upgrade all units of that type. So having two different colored stormies fighting next to eachother seems pretty suggestive of experience. However, it could also be the unit coloring to differentiate between players. So I'd say its just short of conclusive. Lets add this to the questions list for the chat...

I was a bit confused as to who "we" was in regards to no longer needing that topic since it seemed to be one of the most active at the time. Maybe we can cut and paste the last few posts into a new thread since it had turned off topic anyway. Btw, anybody know where my post on about censorship on this thread went? It seems to have vanished. Server error perhaps.
