I think it would be sweet if Jawas could ionize your droids and capture them! :) Utinni!

Hmm....if the Jawas were threatening my droids, then it'd be nice and legal to......deal with them, wouldn't it?:smirk2:

Hmm....and you're the TF fan? I don't know but.....for some reason I have a feeling that they'd have a rather large problem if the Jawas started making off with your droids. I'd like to see that, your only units left would be Gunray and Haako....it'd be even better if it was a regicide game lol

That wouldn't be funny ;) maybe they'd just steal your "worker droids".

All I know is that if a Noghri can't take down an AT-AT, those Jawas better not be able to!

now that's something, watching jawas hustling my droids and having to blast them. that certainly adds a new "grand theft" twist to rts games...

It would certainly make walls infinately more useful. Or for someone looking for a tactical advantage, have a jedi convert one and run it through your enemy's base. Kind of like what people do with school buses in RA2

well, unless they (jawas) had an unseen protective vest or were on steroids, they're gonna have a low HP. they wouldn't get too far in your opponent's base.

I'm used to playing RA2 lately. For some reason, if you send a mind controlled civilian car through your enemy's base, I don't believe their defenses automatically target the car. I could be wrong, but thats what happened when I last did it.

well yeah that's RA2, but with whoever i pick as a civ (most likely wookies), seeing a little brown hooded dood with apparently no face strolling along my base is enough for me to blast him.....

Don't you mean rip his arms off? "You know, I once saw Chewie here rip the arms off a droid before....." Yes I know I completely messed the quote up ;)

well, i'm pretty sure they have lasers too, eitherway a jawa without an invitation to my base is a goner.

one of my dreams for this game is having a neutral sandcrawler on a map with jawa's picking up all sorts of stuff. it adds to that world-feel.. now it looks like we might even get it !

That would be great to have jawas that you could blast. Hmm, I wonder if there will be like towns and stuff with civilians walking around. Hehe, it would be quite entertaining for one of my troops to "defy my direct orders" and go on a rampage through the streets! Of course I would never condone such a course of action. :D

You know, they did have these in AOK, they were called "wild boars". They didn't steal your villagers, but they attacked and killed them, all they would have to do is changed the art and animations.

That would be cool though, blasting the jawas :jawa sending there little bodies flying across your base.

as well having your droids have there little stunners and go out and attack Wookies :p hee hee that would be hilarious

I was just thinking of a bug they were talking about in PC Gamer. Age of Mythologies had this bug that when you attck anything in the gaia population they will all come after you and attack you. EVERY SINGLE ANIMAL!!! Including goats and sheep which arn't normally attackers:D

Kill a womp rat...:jawa :jawa JAWA COMMANDOS:jawa :jawa and Tusken Raiders start comming after you.:D

What would be really interesting is if you could trade with Jawas. Say your fighting the Trade Fed. Give the Jawas some money and they steal Trade Federations droids.


I can see it now. 3po is walking in my base and to little Jawas come up grab him and go running.

That would be interesting, but i don't think it will happen. However, the Jawa Sandcrawler may be a trade vessel, but they won't steal droids for you.

I know, would be funny though. It would be nice to have a place were you could trade with. (in AoK, you could trade but usually the other person didn't like your carts and would kill them)

the possiblility of a jawa is okay but would probly not hurt the trade fed b/c that would be unfair

Biggest possiblity with Jawas is being a place to trade with.

That'd be cool if you had nuetral towns and other stuff(Jawas) to trade with, and not just the human controlled players. It'd be a big pssibility to make more resources and it'd add another thing to consider in strategies.

Yes, but alot of players would attack these towns... so no one could trade with them... or force you to trade with them, and to get a higher score :(

Neutral towns would allow people to win through other ways instead of just war.

yes and i believe the LEC team did mention that there are other ways to win a game other than just producing mass armies and overpowering your opponent.

Multiple ways to win would be great, they tried that in AOK, but its still mainly conquering each other. It'd make the game really interesting if they did.

I'm horrible at AOK, so different ways to win might help me..... ;)

yeah, they said that you may be able to win politically so maybe if you attack these towns or something, the people in that town will come and attack you back with what ever they have...

or maybe your nme can even help arm them giving them control over them.

hehe, gamma check out mrfixitonline.com to check out some tips on AoK. you can even get recorded games of the pros who play and watch them to see what these pros do and in how much time. it was really helpful to me...
