Originally posted by Darth Windu Armour (Mechanised) forces exist to SUPPORT infantry, not to replace them, and that is the way these units should be portrayed. You would so get owned by von Manstein, Patton and Zhukov. As modern battles (Gulf War...  [Read More]

If there will be a Clone Wars expansion, I certainly hope that the Empire and Alliance can't fight the Republic and Separatists (at least in campaign mode). Think about it, they're from completely different time periods. Hmm, what would be nice is i...  [Read More]

Besides, once the advanced fighters like the A-Wing came into play, the imperials upgraded their fighter fleet with TIE Defenders, etc. Yeah, all 20 of them sure made a big difference. Because the Empire is really arrogant. Arrogant enough to plac...  [Read More]

Make it a priority to eliminate those turrets. I find that using a zoomed-in sniper rifle works great, taking out those turrets with just one shot. I don't understand why it would take more than one shot when not zoomed in though...:rolleyes:...  [Read More]

I recall reading that Aayla Secura (a blue Twi'Lek jedi from the EU, for those who don't know) was added in post-production, so you never know if G.L. could decide to have Delta Squad have kind of an easter egg appearance in the background. (All of A...  [Read More]
