The description of the TIE Scout tells that it has a hyperdrive and can do recon missions. I think it will have better use in the Galactic Campaign then in Multiplayer matches but I can be mistaken

In space battles every player just has his space station where all the research and building takes place. In space you can conquer satellites which work as defensive platforms and help keeping the enemy out of your side of the map In the ground map the buildings were already set so you don't have to construct them. I dont know if the player will construct them himself but I think so because the "Unlocks..." term in the buildings description seems so.

- The hole "money thing" was realy unfinished in this alpha. The costs and gaining of money is balanced right now and there were no exact facts about how much money you get per second. You can build mineral wells at many points on the map but when you build mineral wells there you cant create turrets there (Turrets can only be build at these set spots) so you have to decide if you want better front-line defences or more money. Multiplayer was not possible so I cant tell you about it. Sorry.

To the moving and firing: If my memory serves me correctly they do as soon as the come into range but shortly after that they stop to move. So I think they can but I dont give this to you at 100% To the characters: The build was an early alpha constructed for showing the basics. Im sure many things are still missing in this version because Petro and LA sont want to show them yet. To Couruscant: The only playable ground mission was Hoth and there were no info to get about the planets. (Not even which. Activision does not tell because LA does not allow)

Ah. Again a double post but it is good for you: I forgot a new units which was in the Alpha: The Rebel Infiltrator. its a single infantry unit which is able to blast enemy buildings. Regretfully I do not have a picture of it. Perhaps Junker has.

Yes. Every ship has some kind of special abilities. Marauder Cruisers for example can do suicide barrage runs against enemy ships/stations. Also heroe ground units have special abilities like the Sith "Force Thunderbolts" or simply using special grenades/mines.

Hopefully you will have my "moving pictures" by tomorrow And just a hint: Junker has taken much more pictures so there are many more to come, I swear

But it is not the upgrade of the unit but the "overall" upgrades you researched. So perhaps you meant it but you did not write it

And cont forget to see the units sizes. You can hardly spot the X-Wings (only by icons) and on the lower right corner you can spot a Corellian Corvette which is a dwarf in comparison to the station which is only Tier 1 (there are up to five Tiers(Upgrades) you can do to your space station) and with each upgrade your station gets bigger and stronger.

The speeders always move around at the spot they are. So they do not "levitate" or something. And no Rancor: The only playable ground map was Hoth.

Some can, some dont And the M square simply is a place-holder for graphics which are not included yet.

Space stations have a lot of weapons and are really tough enemies. You realay need lots of big destroyers to take down a space station (and the enemy fleet of course).

From Activision or just the guys which were walking around and helped playing the game? (They were not from Activision)

No.

Hey guys, I dont know whats going on with you but I have something I use to call "real/private life"...

Sorry for bringing this up but I did an update to the unit list and now they all have the right names! Be sure to head over to http://www.empire-at-war.de (be sure to change the language if your browser does not) and have a look

Sorry for double posting http://www.empireatwar.pexgames.com/?show=news&news=2825&lang=en Here is the news in hopefully more or less correct English

There is no direct formation order but if you select several units they stay in formatikon and move in the same speed so its kinda like formations And: We don't know if there are Interceptors and SSDs etc. But the Brand Manager (had the chance to talk to him for quiet some time) told me that there are still units left to reveal so I think it is most likely we will see them. This is the only new unit

Because they were not shown before!

Just to make it more easy becuase now I can answer some of the question but please if you want to know more on a special answer open a new thread. THX: Neither nore. I will tell you tomorrow I will tell you shortly Will be possible (Singleplayer Skirmish) - Researches are done in buildings or the main spacestation. More to this in my EaW special I'm working on. - Yes. Heroes do have special abilitiers like Force Powers for Sith/Jedis Markus Neumann (Brand Manager Lucas Arts at Activision Germany) told me that he player a multiplayer match against a kolleque and they played for 2 hours and did not even reach the end of the tech tree Yes we will! A demo will be released at the beginning of January/End of December (aprox) No exact info. Just more than 40 This is most likely not going to happen. Why is hard to explain. Yes! It will work as the singleplayer campaign. One player takes the Rebels the other the Imperial Forces. These are unsure because the Engine is still improved and worked on In multiplayer games it is only possible to select Ground OR Space Combat.

- No Bespin playable (No info on the plantes so far. Only that there will be more than 40) - DeathStar not included - Yes there are This is the "POD Walker", a rebel unit.

The heroes which were included in the Alpha shown at the Games Convention: EMPIRE: Ground: - Emperor Palpatine (!) - Dart Vader - Mara Jade - Maximillian Veers (comes in an AT-AT) - Boba Fett Space: The Accuser (SD) TIE Advanced X1 (Vader I think) Slave 1 (Boba Fett) REBELS: Ground: Kyle Katarn Obi Wan Kenobi Han & Chewie Space: Moldy Crow (Kyle Katarn) Millenium Falcon (Han & Chewie) Red Squadorn (Luke, Wedge, etc. )

There will be heroe ships: Those which were included in the Alpha at the Games Convention were: The Moldy Crow (Kyle Katarn), The Millenium Falcon, The Accuser (SD), TIE Advanced X-1 (Vader I think), Red Squadron, Slave 1 (Boba Fett). So far with the Alpha...
