UntimelyDemise

The grip sucks...looks like a rubber hose connected to a very deadly blaster. Not a very good design...especially with the addition of those flanges. Just my opinion.

Damn, more depth than D&D?? How much more could ya cram into an RPG??

BTW, what do sublight drives look like?

Ever wonder why that movie has a ship "star" in it that isn't in the game? In the Imperial movie, TIE bombers take out the Rebs' HQ, but noone recognizes the ship from the Rebel movie.... And I agree it looks very cool...

That's a great question...women find Star Wars as interesting as men do, it's been proven. I didn't know girls found Dungeons & Dragons as interesting. Maybe the chicks just aren't as interested in this game as some of the others... Or maybe it's because we call 'em chicks!

Nothing like his father, he is, hmmm? hehehe I'd say if you control the galaxy, who cares if Skywalker is still rambling about. Once all the galaxy is under Imperial rule, there is no need to fear one pitiful Jedi...

Yes, but I've never noticed a significant effect from that. Besides, Palpatine is too valuable to have sitting at Coruscant all the time.

Well said! The glory of the Empire shines upon all who perceive it!

OOC: Prime Minister Tony Blair!!!!! Oh, wait, he's not in the Star Wars universe... BTW, is anyone keeping this story...we should submit this as a novella, or something!

Hahaha!!! In case anyone hasn't seen Monty Python and the Holy Grail...check this out: http://www.stone-dead.asn.au/movies/holy-grail/scene-21.html

Oh, it would have to be the Galleon! BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAH!!! Seriously, if we are talking the unmodified Rebellion, then it would have to be the Interdictor. If we are talking about anything else, it would be the Golan Platform!

"The Bounty was just a sign of goodwill so I wonder what is the value of this information?" Loor was taken aback at this brash slicer. A foolish comment like that to the wrong Imperial officer would have been cause for severe punishment. However, Loor was not your common Imperial officer. His background as a fighter pilot had taught him to respect courage, and Garth seemed to have plenty of that. After a moment to compose himself, Loor answered. "Your skills will not go uncompensated. My offer includes a suitable 'donation' as well as some other benefits...you are aware the Empire has a vast array of new technology in slicing and data aquisition. If I like what you provide, perhaps you could browse through some of the latest hardware available, or in some cases unavailable." Loor allowed himself to smile. Money was one thing, but slicers were most enticed by getting their hands on better equipment...especially Imperial classified equipment. "Now, please accompany Mabak and Yaou to the lab that has been set aside for you. If you have need of anything, just ask. There will be several Stormtroopers there...for your protection, of course." Loor turned to Mabak and Yaou. "After you have escorted Garth to his new home, please brief me on your most recent travels. I am most interested in the supplies you have brought to me." Loor watched as the three exited the conference room. After a moment, he strode out himself, headed for the shuttle which would carry him back to his command ship. He needed to contact Fleet Command before Mabak and Yaou made their report, and Admiral Nevit need to be updated.

Talk about a greasy spoon!!

Can we equip those rabbits with Stinger missles???? Or maybe laser-guided smart bombs, shaped like rabbit-poo!!!

OOC: Elvis, I'm not worried! --------------------------------------------------- IC: The Silverback slid easily into the docking bay of the Space Station. Mabak and Yaou had accomplished this mission quickly...a fact that would not go unnoticed when promotions were handed out. Loor was impressed by their successes in obtaining the Phobium, as well. The Silverback's ramp lowered, revealing three figures emerging. "Nice work, gentlemen. Please join me in the conference room." Loor led the three to conference room X-655. As they sat, Loor began. "Welcome to Imperial Science Station Nebulum, Garth. I trust you have learned of your...forgiveness...for your past. I hope this will be a sign of our...goodwill." Loor smirked at this last word. The Empire was known for many things, but goodwill and forgiveness were not among them. "Thank you" said Garth. He looked a bit confused, but confident. Loor appreciated that. "Your skills are very valuable to us, Garth. That is why we have went to great lengths to secure your services. We need your unique abilities to find a bit of information in the Rebels' data banks." Garth looked a bit surprised at this information, but only for a moment. "No computer system is secure enough to stop me." Garth boasted. "Excellent...I was confident you'd be able to handle this project. Please be aware, however; that failure is not an option, and treachery will not be tolerated. What has been taken away can easily be be replaced, and with a bounty twice the size previous.", Loor glared. He could tell his new "associate" got the message. "Hey, we're all friends here...no need to threaten." said Garth, clearly wanting to assure Loor of his loyalty. "Yes...friends..." Loor smirked. 'When did friendship involve threats and bribes?' Loor pondered. "I am not ready to divulge the target for your skills, but have you any other questions for me, Garth?" Loor asked.

What kind of cake? I hope it's chocolate, that disguises the cyanide better!

There's been some debate about whether the space program should go on or not in the US. I don't think there is any question that we should continue to explore space and the potential good for mankind that comes from the scientific experiments outweighs the risks. Astronauts (and cosmonauts for that matter) have always known the dangers and many still line up to be blasted into space. That's what makes true heroes, and that's why the space program can never be ended. The heroes of the Columbia died doing what they loved doing, and I think none would have traded the 16 days of hurtling through the outer atmosphere for another day on Earth. God Bless them and God Bless the USA.

Isn't Aurabesh a lovely font? Not only does it look cool, but it is completely undecipherable unless you have the font!!! Sometimes to screw with my coworkers, I will issue a memo in Aurabesh.

I am now certain Jahled is quite mad.

Croc Hunter Steve Irwin peers inside the little cave. "Crikey! 'Ere we have a bloody good specimen, the elusive Holdan! She's not poisonous, though...so I'm gonna go jump on a King Cobra for fun! I guess I don't have any brains, after all!" Steve's wife hits him over the head with a tire iron. BANG! "He's such an imbecile" says she. As she looks closer, she notices fishnet stockings on him, and realizes it's not Steve Irwin she's just wacked on the head, but in fact Jahled!

If you put prisoners on a well garrisoned planet with a General and a Commander, make sure you also have a small fleet with several troops on board in orbit. If a prisoner escapes from the planet, they still have to escape from the fleet. Of course, if you play as the Galactic Empire, you don't need to worry about prisoners...those silly little Rebels are executed immediately to teach a valuable lesson to those who seek to harm the Emperor!

OOC: (to Elvis) IC: Loor gasped as he saw the reinforcement list scroll down the screen. He counted 8 Imperial Star Destroyers, 4 Victory Class Cruisers and 15 other support ships. When Imperial Fleet Command decided to do something, they did it with class. Reports were also coming in from the deep cover spies that the Rebel fleet was reforming, but reports of where were still unclear. Loor hoped the envoy he had sent to this mysterious "Garth" would prove fruitful. He needed information, and though he hated dealing with neutrals, Loor felt that was the only way to gather intelligence in this case. The coming weeks would bring death. Loor could only hope the Rebels felt the sting first. OOC: I'm stuck on a ISD ...can an Imperial jump in as my "envoy" to speak with Swarmer?

OOC: Thanks, Elvis! I wasn't whining, though...you guys got the best of us that last time, but we'll be a little more ready next time!

Ooooo-kay. I think Jahled has a gender confusion issue! Goldfish are quite tasty with tartar sauce and a cracker!

I've got the other 1% locked away in the Imperial vaults...for "safe keeping".
