Sometimes, in multiplayer, both of us abandon all galactic problems and focus on jedi training. We each pick an outer rim world and move all characters there. Recruit like mad, and train those that are Jedi potential. Then we get rid of non-Jedi and pit the Force guys against each other. Pretty fun, unless all your Jedi are Orlock caliber.

 

Also fun: Mega fleets. Each build a fleet with hundreds of capital ships and let 'em fight. Problem is, the game slows down to Glacial speed in the battle screen and it gets boring after while because it says Awaiting Opponent Response even though it's unpaused for both players. Fun while it lasts, though.

 

If anybody has any other ideas for screw-off multiplayer games, I'd like to hear them.

What exactly is Orlock caliber?

I think that is the same as an Uber Character.

Orlock caliber: as in completely useless in every way after he's finished designing his latest facility

Well I guess I was wrong, Figures....

What is a/an "Uber Character?" I've never heard that term before.

Orlock caliber: as in completely useless in every way after he's finished designing his latest facility

Ahhh! I see... I always play the Rebel Alliance; it is known there as The Mon Mothma Syndrome

Dreaded syndrome, I sometimes send her to sabotage somethign and get captured...

if you are playing a jedi game you should use rebed to make all charecters have potential.

The Mon Mothma Syndrome? Enlighten Me....

The Mon Mothma Syndrome? Enlighten Me....

Well she's useless after she's done recruiting, isn't she?

Hate to admit it, Mothma can actually make a damn decent Diplomat, of course you can only send her to the outer rim since being captured means you are that much closer to loose the game 'cause she STINKS in combat and espionage

Unless you increase her stats just a teeny bit in RebEd.

Orlock caliber.

 

 

Wouldn't that be Bevel Lemelisk Caliber, since after you reach full tech research his stats are pretty much useless. Although I had one memorable game were he became Jedi capable, so that made him Orlock caliber

I think I said it best, just replace the her with his.

not if he is talking about Mon Mothma (which he is)

Orlock caliber.

YEA Bevel Lemelisk is the only character I remove after research is done

Orlock caliber: as in completely useless in every way after he's finished designing his latest facility

 

Shouldn't that be "Bevel Lemelesk Caliber"? Sure, he can research all three, but after he's done...no espionage, no combat, no diplomacy, no leadership...hell, he can even be given a rank! He's completely useless. At least Orlock can be given a command.

D'OH! My bad...helps to read through the topic completely before posting...just ignore that previous post.

Wy don't you just increase their skill with rebed. You can even make them admiral or a know Jedi at the beginning of the game.

 

Then you don't have to retire any personel.

What exactly is Orlock caliber?

 

Orlok is brutal. You can train the guy up to Jedi master and Mon Mothma can still kick his ass. At least his leadership gets pretty high. I guess he can be used to start riots until he gets killed...

I like Mon Mothball though. She's a great diplomat. Also, she can't die so who cares if she gets captured. Gives Luke something to do.

 

I find that for the Rebels Carlist is kinda useless. At least he can be a general...
