Yes, I'm sure it will be standalone. It doesn't make sense to release a demo of an expansion pack that requires the original game to play. That way you'll exclude a large potential market, namely those who don't have the original but might want to bu...  [Read More]

Sure they can, I can see them without problems and I live in Norway. I posted a couple of direct links in the other thread, the one started by Sageking-PG; try those. And as for the Merciless, I too assumed it was Tyber's ship....  [Read More]

"Aerial artillery unit" that "can be put to other uses"? Now that sounds intriguing. I hope the Rebels (and Zann Consortium) have more anti-air units, then. After all, the Imperials have their AT-AAs. Perhaps some of the new MDUs...  [Read More]

I noticed the Arc Hammer is featured in the screenshot list. Will the Arc Hammer be formidable in space, similar to star destroyers. Or does it have low firepower, like interdictors. Better yet, can you divulge information regarding the hardpoints o...  [Read More]

So you get different effects based on which units are inside? Cool. How many units/infantry squads can you garrison inside a bunker at a time?...  [Read More]

Speaking of bunkers: I wonder if there will be differences between the bunkers of the different factions. And will they be present on the ground maps from the beginning, or will you have to build them? I also noticed that all sides had some new veh...  [Read More]

The "cross between an eagle and a turtle" remark probably reflected more on his appearance than his actual biology. I'm trying to think of long-lived races, but none spring to mind that'll fit. He sure isn't related to Yoda, and he's much t...  [Read More]

Oh, that sounds sweet. Makes me wish you could do something like that with regular Star Destroyer-type ships too. The TIE Defenders won't be a "garrisoned" unit normally, will it? It's the sort of unit you have to buy separately, like the...  [Read More]

The best way to take down the Executor (I imagine) is to use smaller, quicker ships like Nebulon-Bs, Assault Frigates and possibly the new MC-30s and keep them behind it. Regular Star Destroyers in the game have no backwards-facing weapons, so if you...  [Read More]

Ah, I see. I hadn't noticed that. In that case it does indeed look like the Arc Hammer has been scaled down. I'm only guessing, but it's probably so that the space maps won't get too crowded, especially if both it and the Executor happens to be prese...  [Read More]

Yes, it's the long thin ship that looks like a silverfish :) And contrary to most of the frigates in the game, it is not purposed to be a corvette killer - it is fast and highly effective against large ships... You mean like, oh, I don't know... Supe...  [Read More]
