They better put in Gerrard V and Fest.

Hmm, urban operations, that would be fun. I don't know bout fest though, they already have hoth i think. They'll most likely have coruscant, Tatooine, hoth, naboo, endor, Kashyyyk, maybe yavin, and hopefully a few others.

They do have Tatooine? That's good. I haven't seen any desert screenshots, though. :jawa

Really, where, i'd like to read it?

BTW, i didn't list all the ones from RS, those are Tatooine, Fest, Hoth, Death Star, Kile II, Gerrard V, fest, Balmorra, Barkhesh, Kessel, Taloraan, Loranar, Chorax, Sullust, Thyferra, Chandrilla, Mon Calamari, and Corellia. I think that's it.

Yeah, i saw it, it's cool. They have a huge group of soldiers, but how will they get to the enemy, and how are they breathing in the vaccuum of space?

1. Probably a transport unit

2. Its a game, you should really just relax

Relax?!? RELAX?!? ok.

I' m really not that worked up about it. Sometimes it is hard to epress something like that in text without over or under stating it. It is going to be a great game though.

I knew that that was probably the answer, but teh reason i asked was that i hate it when you have to use transports to move troops. It's such a pain to get them all inside and then unloaded before the enemy totally destroys you.

NOTE: the screenshots posted at Gamespot seem to be from the older version of GB. Back when the AT-AT was smaller then a stromtrooper. So don't worry.

Two fridays ago LEC released screenshots featuring the new units size and mentioned the art departement has completed everything. But from the newscreenshots they didn't show any air units nor transport I think.

So dont worry people. Its LEC after all. They promissed no more Episode1 type of games (formely known as rushed games)

Ok, good, i was hoping they would change the air units. *goes and looks at new screenshots* You're right, the scaling is better on the new ones. Thanks.

Has anyone noticed that in those screenshots, the Y-Wings seem to have 4 engines?

I think it will just be grass, forest, snow, desert, rock, swamp, urban, space, water and space platform terrain rather than each planet having its own tile set like Force Commander did.

Yes! That's part of of whati'm saying. The ships are poorly designed, but hopefully they've changed that already.

I think they should have Balmorra and a big battle in the factorey area.
 Tie Guy

Yeah, a Rebel raid on an Imperial AT-AT and AT-ST factory. That would be a great mission. Maybe i'll make one if that isn't included already.

There is an attack on a :atat: base in FC. TheJackal answered the question I had about them changing unit sizes. But I think they should still be bigger. What do you think? Vote at my poll.

Don't feel bad ;) It's just I surf SW websites half awake at 3 AM so errors are common. I usually use word but thats only for larger posts. And I'm not so young I'm 27! :)

Getting back to the topic: there will probably be just terrain types that repesents a planet, or you maybe you can pick which planet? Guess we'll have to wait. :(

i'd go for planet-selection too.
it just fits this particular game better.

Yeah, it would be interesting playing Naboo Vs. Gungans on Kashyyyk. :D

I wonder if on the same map you can travel to a different planet.

I'd like to see how the Gungans fare on Hoth! He he.

that will probably not matter.

The 'realism' is nice (if you can say that with SW-movies as your background), but that's probably taking it two steps too far
 Tie Guy

What is, the gungans on hoth or the switching worlds on one map?
 Paragon_Leon

erm, I meant that Gungans on Hoth doesn't matter in terms of realism.
it's simply about having a change of backdrop to your blasting.
