Now, with the special forces, there needs to be a few changes, but not many.

 

New Republic

 

Guerillas - New Republic Special Forces (Like Katarn's Commandos & Kapp Dendo's Commandos etc.)

Infiltrators - Alpha Blue (Possibly - Infiltrators don't exist in the timeframe)

Bothan Spies - New Republic Intelligence

Longprobe Y-Wing - Recon X-Wing (Or maybe New Republic Ferrets & Prowlers)

 

Galactic Empire

 

Espionage Droid - Same (New Pic & Stats maybe)

Noghri Death Commandos - Same (New Pic & Stats maybe)

Probe Droid - Same (New Pic & Stats maybe)

Commandos - Same (New Pic & Stats maybe - Change name to SpecNav Forces possibly)

 

Does anyone else have any ideas?

Sounds good to me, i could even give you a good argument as to why you're right to keep the Noghri with the Imps.

 

- Cloning, C'Baoth or Thrawn only had to clone a few that would remain loyal to him. And the Rebels never really used them in whole units, some were personal bodyguards for Organa-Solo, but most just stayed on Noghri.

Honoghr maybe?

 

That looks like a really good list, but can anyone think of any other special forces that existed in the Star Wars timeframe? Just incase we want to replace any of those?

Um, yeah, Honoghr, that's what i meant!

 

Kapp Dendo's Commando's, or Page's?

 

Slicers for espionage.

 

If the Wraiths went over to Intell instead of Fleet, would Intell have made up more similar units?

Are there research levels for the Special Forces? Then you could have the Noghri for the NR too.. in time.

 

Pages commando's are far more known than Kap Dendo's.

I think slicers is quite a good idea for intelligence. Someone a pic of that geek of Karrde with some computers or something?

No, unfortunately you start off with all your 'special' units available.

BLAST this is why I hate Special Forces

I'd say Dendo's. Page was a little more than a lieutenant at that time, so Dendo (was he colonel in Isards Revenge?) seems more logical to me.

I say Page. In all books I read I never read about Dendo. Page was in more books

Kapp appeared more in the X-W Comics, in books he only appeared in Isard's Revenge here he leads a Noghri commadno team to rescue the prisoners.

Page is better known than Kapp.

 

Too bad we cannot set a research order on the SpecForces.

Page is also a character, though Dendo isn't.....

Tk, look at Trejiuvanat's page (www32.brinkster.com/trejiuvanat/), he's got a card for Ghent there.

 

My usual question that I throw into many discussions lately : do we have pictures for either Page or Kapp Dendo ?

There is a card in the game for Page, and i think that both Page and Dendo have pictures in Sansweet's Encyclopaedia.

Hey, I just ordered the new 'Essential guide to characters' for 25€, so what new book is this ?

Are there also good pictures in it ?

Ok, Amazon found it as well (ISBN: 0345402278), but this one

costs 50€ ! Too much for this poor student

Hey, I just ordered the new 'Essential guide to characters' for 25€, so what new book is this ?

The book itself isn't that new, it's just that they reprint it (seemingly) every few years with updated information. I'd also check out the Essential Guide to Races, it has some nice pics of Yuuzhan Vong and their technology (yammosks, coralskippers, etc).

It only has blueprints, doesn't it?

Anyone know where i can get them online at a decent price because my local bookshops don't seem to stock them.

Well I bought it Amazon, cause all the bookshop-keepers in a 20km radius around the place where I live nearly got mad when I tried to get 'Cracken's Threat Dossier' (WEG) from them.

 

Igor, the essential guide to characters will have to be enough for a while, since my funds are not that great ... hmmm .... typical student problem it seems

Hmm, i do have funds, it's whether i can afford to spend them or not, ill pop onto Amazon at some point and have a look.

The book(s) with the blue prints would have to be either Essential Guide to Star Wars Ships, Essential Guide to Star Wars Vehicles, or most likely both.

 

Mask, it's okay -- I haven't seen the latest edition but if it has even any Vong in it I'm sure it was money well spent.

The cover says it has everything from EP1, EP2, ... to even the NJO

Now if Amazon would just deliver ...

Sounds good to me, i'm looking at it now...

Page's commandos all the way.

Page's Commando's

Alpha Blue

NRI or slicers

Recon X-Wing

 

Espionage Droid (new pic)

Noghri Death Commando's (new pic)

Probe Droid (new pic)

Commando's (like the team Thrawn used for the capture of Leia and twins?)

 

We could also make the Noghri for two cards.. as infiltrators and
