Hi all After having released its own preview, EAW-FR is working on an article to show you all game planets. As it's a huge article with around 150 screenshots, it's a little long to make ... As there won't lots of text, Article will be released both in English and French To make you wait and to respond requests from people from PFF I put 9 new screenshots on EAW-FR. You'll be able to find screenshots of multiplayers lobbies , Manaan from space, Ennemy IA in activity during Galactic Conquest (with more than 5 AI troop moves at the same time ) ==> http://www.eaw-fr.com/index.php?p=galerie&cat_id=13#texte And just click on screenshots with the date " 05/02/2006 " (In France we put the day before the month when we write a date ) Don't focus on graphics, screenies have been taken from my notebook which is a not a "Terminator" computer Have fun when is this artical going to be finished?

I did see that, i just wanted to make shure. Thanks so much.

no no no. they are the scary rebel nose pickers!!! they are saying. "All flee from the path of my nose picking finger!!"

Wow looks nice. So that was you using the online thing? if it was can you please do me a favor and try and log on with dial up if you can? sounds weird but i want to make sure it works or if it doesn't. appreciate it.

If this is so I will Shirley be breaking out the DS for some fun time.

ok then where DID you get the screens because every time i go to the outher site my comp freezes.

You CAN bomg from orbit with ISD's.. :

ok from what ive read i got this. once the game is relesed they will release an update at the end of Feb with the SSD in it to download. please correct me if im wrong.

539-BFMEII 709 STAR WARS EMPIRE AT WAR!!

Well im glad it wont be the same in the game. it makes sense though to choose what ships to use in demo, its a tutorial that helps the player to experience the game as best as possible.

/qRemove your space forces from the area - leave it open for him to take. On the bait-world, leave a large ground force, to make it a pain to take. Put in turbolaser batteries and ion cannons, just for fun. If he does want that planet, and isn't any Thrawn, he'll pounce. Wait for him to get to the bait planet, and then jump one force into the border system he took to get there. Take it back, then hold it. Assuming that he's taken the space over the bait-world, but not the ground, you can safely launch a strike force - not from the border, but somewhere else - onto him; prioritise destroying weapon systems. Forget about engines and armor - he's got nowhere to run. If he beats that back, he'll have had quite a few losses, as well as disabled weapons - just mop him up with the border force, if that's the case. At worst, you've lost one strike force, while he's lost a lot more - hopefully a nasty lot of ground forces, and ships to Ion and Turbolaser batteries. Here's where one can hope that there's more to individual battles then "Go here, AI takes over, hope to win". Not to mention, he'll be distracted... so you can always "sneak" another force in somewhere else./q A different way would, as you said leave the space of the planet alone but what i would do along with the ion cannons and so forth if i would station dozons of detachment ships on the planet surface, split them into groups and every so offten attack the transports and ships in space to lower my ground casualties.

I agree, i have noticed in some screenshots (as you have said) that some fire does miss. By just targeting the ship itself you are obviously aiming for a much bigger target than a subsystem itself. And aiming for the ship itself will help with my at least fleet strategy which includes very little bombers, mainly cap ships (for the power sense).

I agree, if you would be able to totaly mass X-wings you could easily take over the "space galaxy" because X-wings are multy purpose craft.

Yea im so mad, i cant find a CD copy of the demo and its anoying seeing all these awsome screenshots but i cant play it. :'(

I had an idea, just to see what your peoples strategy's are why don't we post our "dream" fleets and resons for your arrangements? Just a thought.

Nice pics... i liked them. why don't you post your fav fleet arrangement.

i think thats when the rebels "take over" the ship so it turns your side. Yea i have dial up too, sucks dont it?

I think the VSD is hitting an asteroid to. look at it, no outher lazers goin its way and its in an asteroid feild. whats with that ship in the first pic? it looks like the clone ships from Eisode II .

Has anyone even confirmed you need to use the red squadron to destroy the DS? Because if i remeber corectly everything you do in the game effects the galaxy. meaning, what if you lost your red squadron in battle? idk it makes sence to me that you would only need some x-wings... but i might be wrong.

lol i had a feeling it started with a c but wasnt shure which it was. sorry.

hmm well i think this might be Coruscant from the inside.. correct me if im wrong please. http://www.eaw-fr.com/modules/view_screen.php?&n=3234&cat_id=&nsp=1[/img]

Lol, i used to play starcraft constantly for years. Hey does anyone know how long it will take to load EaW for multiplayer with a 56k modem? dang i hope it can even support it enough for me to play period.

Happy new year!! I agree Supreme comander will be very good but not as good as EaW!!! Cant wait to play EaW and hope it comes out sooner than expected!! wohoo!

I think it would, you would probably take down some enemy ships and wound them wile you can move one of your fleets back and kick but if that was a planet worth fighting for. like if the bonus that you get from it is good.

I agree with stellar. With this planet reduction i was also disuraged, but over 40 panets is also still good. I dont honestly like the compared sizes of fighters and bombers to cap ships, but even with a zoom, trying to find this tiny tie fighter in a black barckround... and most everyone is complaing because the relese dates have been all over, dec, oct then feb. with really nothing to satisfy us, in outher words (the game and demo) its all you can do. I hope things go better as anticipated so things go much much faster. But thats all we can do on this sub, is hope. very sad but true.
