Ok. 1. To control an area, you need troops on the ground. Considering the Moc Cal live in big cities, not hard to do. 2. Fighting a battle would be easy. As we see on Utapau, it's not hard to get Armour into small spaces. Also, with units like the...  [Read More]

The problem with water combat is that logistically, it doesnt make sense. Why create a craft that can only go over one type of terrain that cannot be held, while you can build Aircraft and Ground vehicles? Especially speeder which can go over water a...  [Read More]

Sithaxe - please go back and edit your first post. Not trying to be mean or anything but the grammar and spelling in it is horrible. I don't know about anyone else but I had difficulty deciphering what you were trying to say....  [Read More]

I didn't say I never use abbreviations, what I'm saying is that, for example, writing 'FRG' instead of Frigate isn't convient, it's just plain lazy....  [Read More]

Dude - uh, you realise that short-hand for the Republic Assault Ship is RAS for rather obvious reasons right? Eagle - I don't really care. Fact is, abbreivations aren't needed unless you're referring to the same thing many times. Most of the time th...  [Read More]

Actually DMUK in C&C it changed a bit. In the original (Tiberian Dawn) you could capture a building regardless of its health. In Red Alert, it had to be in the red (ie nearly destroyed). Then in both Tiberian Sun and Red Alert 2, they went back t...  [Read More]

A similar resource system existed in Star Trek: Birth of the Federation. Captured planets would increase your credits-per-turn, and also the amount of ships you had depended upon how many planets you had, and what their production capacity was....  [Read More]

Gotta agree with Jan here, the Republic Assault Ship isnt a Star Destroyer. As for how the Republic Star Destroyer goes, I doubt it will be much less powerful than the Imperial Star Destroyer. This is because really, the main armament of the RSD and...  [Read More]

I agree that yes, it is a fan forum, so people will naturally be optimistic. However, I would expect that any forum would be open to all views. Thing is though, instead of trying to convince me that the game will be good, I got blasted instead....  [Read More]

lol, I love it. Here I am making predictions that the game will suck, and get blasted by practically everyone for it, and here we have others saying 'it will be the greatest' and nothing is said. Sounds more than a little hypocritical....  [Read More]

Naja - you'll never get away from my incessant whining and bitching ;) In terms of adding the Republic and Seperatists, as the game is 'Empire at War' I agree, it doesn't make any sense to have the prequel sides because, as you pointed out, it takes...  [Read More]

Well the thing is, I said before that this game will suck and everything I have seen has confirmed my first suspicions. - First off, about a prequel expansion pack, that would be blatant prifiteering. Fact is, they should have added the Republic and...  [Read More]

Ghost - as luke said, I'm not a ship designer, never have been. Thing is though, I am a Star Wars fan, and for meit's easy to see what fits and what doesn't, and these two ship types don't fit. Thing is, there are a heap of ship designs already in t...  [Read More]
