Or, we could not place blame on anybody, sit down, shut up and enjoy all the movies like TRUE Star Wars fans. ;D Star Wars is fun to watch, I don't care what episode you're watching. The immense clashes between the forces of good and evil, the emotion, the action, the drama.... Acting is secondary to the sheer power of the series, and it's quite spectacular when you just let all the criticism go, step back, and enjoy the show.

Amen to that, bro. At last, someone that's not just a total hater. It's good to see some positive comments FOR ONCE.

Nobody steals the ENTIRE NFL licence and gets away with it!! > > LA all the way, even though they suck too.

I'm glad we cold finally agree, Mikan. ;D By far! That is, if you don't become one of them first.... http://img95.imageshack.us/img95/9695/assimilation1tf.jpg This is how regular humanoids (the Borg assimilate many races) are assimilated and turned into Borg drones. By injecting the subject with nanoprobes, they gradually take over the entire body and mind until you lose all sense of individuality and become connected to the Collective, or hive mind. Each drone thinks with the entire Collective and that former individual's thoughts, feelings, and emotions are wiped away. However, their memory and knowledge remains and is transferred to the Collective as a whole.

So, no Borg then? The NJO and New Republic? Ugh.... : No problem with that era, it's just that it's skipping the grandest part in Star Wars history. The Galactic Civil war was the highpoint of warfare in the galaxy, as there was an ORGANIZED Empire under Palpatine, thus an organized and powerful navy, vs. the new tattered rag-tag crappy flying pieces of junk (no offense, but that's just my opinion) defending the New Republic with "warlords" running around buying Star Destroyers..... I just don't find it that appealing to have these once majestic, organized, and mighty vessels being skeleton crewed and flown around by semi-pirates. I am aware that the New Republic has Star Destroyers in it's "arsenal", but it's nowhere near the firepower of the Empire at it's height. And what's with all the Death Star wanna-be's? ??? And these "New Jedi".... Don't even get me started.... : Point is,this would be far better off taking place at the height of the Galactic Civil War when there was at least ORGANIZATION and true power in the galaxy.

Yes, I think it's that time too. In my opinion, it would be best for the community if the modders weren't all biast one way or another in this debocale. All I'm asking, is the we have a BALANCED mod where one side isn't just a giant punching bag. What's so wrong with the Feds and the Empire/Rebels forming an alliance against the Borg?! When it's a fight for survival, anything goes!!

First of all, NOWHERE DID I SAY THAT THE FEDERATION COULD DEFEAT THE EMPIRE IN BATTLE. I was taking about the BORG. With advanced technology assimilated from races all accross the galaxy, ESPECIALLY the knowledge to adapt to and regenerate from a multiude weapons fire, it would take a massive pounding from any Imperial fleet to severely cripple JUST ONE Cube, in the same way it takes a massive pounding from a Federation fleet to do the same thing (First Contact). FURTHERMORE, I suggest that we lay down the phasers and lightsabers, and discuss this like gentlemen to get the most fair and balanced result possible. I aslo ask each of you to keep an open mind, and not rule out any ST vs. SW scenario right away. There are so many factors to take into effect that an outcome will be VERY difficult to reach regardless of who's on what side. Our job is to make a BALANCED mod, not a one-sided Imperial slugfest against the Federation "wimps". HERE'S AN ALTERNATIVE: In my opinion, the Galactic Civil War should be put on hold, uniting the Rebel Alliance and the Galactic Empire's forces for the time being WITH the Federation, who have the technology needed to stop the Borg's conquest into the Star Wars galaxy. Although it would still be fun, this would make A WHOLE LOT MORE SENSE than a massive Star Trek vs. Star Wars all-out slugfest. The Federation are not war machines like the Empire, but they do have the technology available to defeat the Borg, if ever so slightly. With the TEMPORARY Imperial/Rebel allaince's firepower complemented by the Federation's technology, they will have an outlet to finally drive the Borg out of BOTH galaxies. Star Trek's Forces- the brains Star Wars' Forces- the braun The Borg- the seemingly unstoppable menace (believe me, these guys are tough!!) The Battlefield- the Star Wars galaxy, ripe for worlds to assimilate

Like Cyclone says, USE WIKIPEDIA FOR EVERYTHING!!!! :o

Well, we do have to have something to destroy. ;D Might as well make it look cool while we do it. That ship's pretty much the cream of the Star Trek crop. Might as well make an example of it.... Although, it's got to have some decent firepower to make it comparable to an ISD or two. Like I said before, some Borg cubes would help even it out as well. Maybe adding them as a separate faction.... http://img366.imageshack.us/img366/9102/borgcube6bc.th.jpg As you can see, just one of these massive vessels can not only fire many tractor beams at once *hint hint*, but is capable of taking on and entire fleet of Federation starships. It should give an armada of Imperial Star Destroyers quite a fight as well. Perhaps we could modify Borg drones for ground use as well, and change the Emperor's Force Corrupt ability into an assimilation weapon against enemy troops. Then, once the planet is assimilated by the Borg, it could be re-skinned to show the new.... changes. http://img156.imageshack.us/img156/4607/drone5ys.th.jpg HA! Found this one funny, but don't worry. My Trekkie days are behind me. Devotion to the Sith Empire is my true calling now. http://img455.imageshack.us/img455/4268/yodaofborg9dp.th.jpg

Perhaps you should read up on it then. ;D http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sovereign_Class Forget what it says, it's a HEAVILY ARMED BATTLESHIP. It's also been called the Ferrari of the Star Trek universe where as other ships are the Pintos. I tend to agree witn them.... http://img62.imageshack.us/img62/4364/sovereign2xl.th.jpg http://img62.imageshack.us/img62/5799/sovereignwarp1pi.th.jpg

*cough* SOVEREIGN CLASS *cough* Man, I need to get over this cold. ;D How about some Borg cubes? That shouldn't be too hard to model....

FINALLY!! ;D Someone else who knows the plural form of Jedi and Sith are NOT "Jedis" or "Siths"!! ;D Jedi: Obi-Wan Kenobi, Yoda, Revan (redeemed) Sith: Darth Vader, Darth Maul, Darth Revan (All hail!!) Easy enough! ;D

Exactly! This just proves how childish some people are. Star Wars isn't just all about space battles and lightsaber duels. It's about REDEMPTION. Think about that next time you pop in a Star wars movie. May the Force grant you maturity.

Join me in mourning the death of the most awesome game that never was!! http://starwarsnoooos.ytmnd.com/ NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!

Man, this game's gonna be even better than Battlefield 2 (if that's even possible!)!! It has friggin' mechs!!!! 1337!! ;D ;D

Man, Baltar really fracked things up! > :'( Even still, I can't wait for October! ;D BSG is on a roll!!

EXACTLY!! Having Sith and Jedi in that era would actually MAKE SENSE!!!! KOTOR is still to this day, the best game I have ever played and this news excites me. This might be the final push to get me into MMORPGs. KOTOR didn't win over 60 Game of the Year awards for nothing! I trust Bioware 100%. I just hope it's all true....

I found this link while searching through Star Wars blogs. I'm still loading it up, but if it's as ridiculous as it's made out to be, it should be worth the wait! I'll post comments as soon as I finish watching this travesty. http://outerrimcustoms.blogspot.com/2006/03/star-wars-holiday-special.html (Chances are, this will take a LONG time to load, as it's in Flash form and there seems to be no way to download it manually.) While you're waiting on it, read up on it at Wookieepedia: http://starwars.wikicities.com/wiki/Holiday_Special EDIT: After doing further searching, I've found the link to download it here: http://www.shadowfuture.net/bh/misc/holidayspecial.rm BE WARNED: GEORGE LUCAS WANTS THIS PILE OF CRAP DESTROYED, AND WILL HUNT YOU DOWN..... MAYBE. (The reason is so small is it's such terrible quality in the 70's. THANK GOD FOR DVDS AND SPECIAL EDITION!!!! RealPlayer is required to play the file.

What's with all the hate Igor? Is that just your thing? ??? This game far surpasses any other Star Wars strategy title. It can easily compete IN TERMS OF QUALITY with any other RTS game out there. This isn't just the opinion of a crazed Star Wars fanboy either. I play other RTS games, and this one has a feel to it unlike anything else out there. You are truly mistaken if you think that the ridiculous complexity of Rebellion is any match for the simple grandeur shown in Empire at War.

Found this one after your triple one! It's a little more realistic, so I think I'll go for this one instead. Thanks again!
