Originally posted by saberhagen In ANH it's fairly clear from the dialogue there were 3 star destroyers trying to stop the Falcon escaping from Tattooine, but I think only 2 of them were in shot at any one time. Oh right, totally forgot about that...  [Read More]

There were only 1 star destroyer shown in ANH, and the number of star destroyers involved in the ESB incident was 3. Maybe only 2 of them actually made a connection though, but there were 3 involved none the less. I don't know of any other collisi...  [Read More]

While it is true that starships will move on a single plain (2D if you want to call it that :) ), fighters will move left and right, forward and backwards, and up and down. All ships will be as 3D models though....  [Read More]

I prefer PC's, because there is so much games that you just can't get on the other platforms that I enjoy playing (WoW is one, SWG used to be one, and many RTS games). :) Then again, there are the occasional gems that you just can't get on the PC....  [Read More]

There's one thing I can think of that a tracked vehicle is capable of doing that is a plus for the Crawler: It can turn on a dime ... errr, credit? :D A wheeled has a harder time doing that, atleast a thte speed of the tracked vehicle. And since t...  [Read More]

Ok ok ok, I know I kinda started this debate (and I was mixing the 2 Tigers together too :( ), but if you like to discuss how strong the King Tiger and the Tiger 1 is, take it to the Off-Topic. God know's it needs abit more life over there. ;) For...  [Read More]

I wouldn't exactly compare the King Tiger to the TIE Crawler. I'd compare it to the Sherman perhaps rather than one of the heaviest and strongest tanks during the 2nd World War. :) Except the weapon system on the TIE Crawler sounds alot more impres...  [Read More]

To be perfectly fair towards the TIE Crawler though, it's not just the EU that has introduced a questionable design. :) Look at the laser dish, doesn't look very sturdy really, but can appearantly pack quite a punch if directed towards the right ta...  [Read More]

The TIE Boarding Craft never made it into the movies, but it was designed for ANH. Original Concept Sketch (http://www.theforce.net/swtc/Pix/books/art/tieboard.jpg) We never really get a clear view of the TIE Shuttle, but apperantly that is su...  [Read More]

It looks kinda like the TIE bomber, except it's larger, and carries personell to and from star destroyers (or other ships) or a boarding party, like the one that was used to board the Tantive IV for instance. You never got to really see it in the mo...  [Read More]
