I just tried the demo of this game, and I just had to shut it down. What is up with the mouse control for this game?!? I move my mouse, and for like half a second, there's no responce. Then the game responds and rotates my character (or looking up,...  [Read More]

No, you will not control just one ship, you will control severl star destroyers (if you are the Empire), it's support vessels, and fighters. You'll decide where they should go, who to shoot at, and they'll do the rest....  [Read More]

I don't know if we could really fit a Death Star in the game. I mean, as cool as it was in Rebellion, there were 200 planets in that game to reck havoc with, while Empire at War is reported to have somewhere around 10% of that (20 planets). Also, I...  [Read More]

They seem in, if judging by the screenshots are any proof. :) But wether you need to build them, is a whole nother issue. They may be "standard equipment" that follows the star destroyer or whatever other ship that can carry such large la...  [Read More]

The real life explaination is, that the consept of an interdictor wasn't really thought up back in those days (when RotJ was made) as far as I know. George Lucas can't think up everything, and indeed he doesn't (and I don't just mean cause he has a...  [Read More]
