Exactly. I would assume that anyone taking the effort to assault a planet would want to capture it for its income, special abilities etc. Destroying it completely (like with the Death Star) should, the way I play the game at least, be reserved for th...  [Read More]

Ј20... that's probably roughly the equivalent of what it'll sell for here in Norway too. I'm thinking Kr. 200-250 (Ј20 is around Kr. 250). There are limits to what you can charge for an expansion....  [Read More]

If you look closely at the "technical spreadsheet" they posted it say "Droideka Mark II" or something similar. That would also explain why they don't look like the ones in the movies....  [Read More]

Sure, I didn't mean that there hasn't been any updates at all. My argument was primarily that Petroglyph/Lucasarts could have done a better job of portioning it out over time, thereby keeping things "fresh" for those of us who are waiting f...  [Read More]

This summer and fall I've been waiting for two expansion packs for two great games: Forces of Corruption for Empire at War, and Dark Crusade for Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War. During this time I've been a regular at the forums and homepages for both...  [Read More]

There wasn't really anything new in it, other than we learned that Tyber Zann's lieutenant has a sonic attack that stuns people. Gamespot showed the game as being released on October 24th. When asked, the Lucasarts producer said they aimed for a &q...  [Read More]

Same here. Sure, they could have done it another way, but there's nothing wrong with having the droids steal it. The main thing, I think, is to ensure that it is noticeably different from how the Empire gets their tech upgrades (research)....  [Read More]

I think you guys are misunderstanding how the Eclipse will be used in the game. In one of the recent designer diaries it was stated that the Eclipse will be under construction, not a buildable, playable unit. I'm guessing that there will be a land m...  [Read More]

I just checked the PFF and I didn't see any topic relating to this on the PFF. Where did you see it Darth Anarch? It was inside the "Legacy of Cain"-thread in the FOC discussion forum... here's the link: http://pff.swrebellion.com/index.php...  [Read More]

I doubt that the regular TIEs will be removed from the game. It's more likely that the Interceptors will become unlocked at tech level 3 or 4, and from then on either your Star Destroyers will produce those instead of regular TIEs, or you'll be able...  [Read More]

I don't necessarily disagree with you; I, too, always thought that the art-thing was a bit oversimplified. That being said, it wasn't so much that Thrawn had better technology, but that he thought of new and unprecedented ways of using it....  [Read More]
