Yes PLEASE!.. A friend of mine refuses to buy the game until it has direct IP to IP connecting.

Kind of like the WWII US 8th Air Force vs. Germany.

I was hoping that if you had more than one cannon it would simulate that while one cannon was recharging the other would be able to fire, thus increasing the overall recharge rate. Otherwise, it doesn’t make any sense to give option to build more if there is no benefit. After you build one cannon the icon should be grayed out.

Hmm… good point. I have yet to play this game multiplayer so I was basing my first selection vs. the AI. However, vs. another player maybe the selection below would be better: 2 Victorys 6pts 4 Broadsides 8pts 3 Tartan 6pts ----------------------- 20pts or… 2 Victorys 6pts 3 Broadsides 6pts 4 Tartan 8pts ----------------------- 20pts In either case take out the Station’s shields/hanger as soon as possible.

Welcome to the Boards!! I think the Broadsides would ultimately be the key here because of their barrage ability. Stations go down quick when you have Broadsides using this special ability. The problem lies in protecting them. I would say: 3 Victorys 9pts 4 Broadsides 8pts 1 Tartan 2pts 1 Vader 1pt --------------------- 20

Well, I did a test last night. I had one planet that had 2 Rebel Heavy Weapons factories and one planet that had 5. I started the production of a tank at the same time on each planet. The planet that had 5 produced the tank significantly faster. So, in a war of attrition having a planet with 5 or more factories would be a big boost. Ok, next question. Would having more than one Ion cannon increase the recharge time during space battles?

Does anyone know if multiple military buildings decrease build times? Will two or three heavy weapon factories produce tanks faster than one? Or, are multiples of the same factories a waste of money?

How rude of the pirates to not allow the landing to go unmolested. ;D

Ok, back to the original question. Does any one know how to get maps for each of the different size campaign selections?

Nope, you have absolutely no control over the initial order of battle. You can of course choose which reinforcements enter.

Expansion? Was there an official statement regarding this?

Yes, but regarding an individual map the lanes shouldn’t change. Correct? The 43 planet map will always have the same lanes. However, they will not be entirely the same when compared to a 20 planet map with similar planets. Right?

@ Grd. Adml Thrawn 889. So you are saying that the hyperspace lanes from standard galactic maps (such as the 43 planet size) change each time you play them? ???

No, you only need to build one.

@ Plokoon9619 I would like a copy of this map if possible. ;D
