Petroglyph haven't revealed the new units for the Rebels yet, except for the B-wing, Yoda and the "new and improved" Luke. I'm thinking there will be more, but we'll have to wait and see....  [Read More]

In the campaign only the Underworld will have a chance at controlling the Eclipse. In Galactic Conquest, though... hard to tell. The logical thing would be the Empire, but as Darth Andrew said they already have both Death Stars. It would be cool if...  [Read More]

He's talking about how only the stuff that's actually shown in the movies is considered irrefutable canon. Other stuff from the Expanded Universe may be official (as in "entered into the Databank and made into official Star Wars lore") but...  [Read More]

I think it was said somewhere that the system requirements would be the same. I even seem to remember that one of the devs said something about tweaking performance a little so it would run better on low-end machines....  [Read More]

I agree with Popcorn; they will probably not add more levels to the Tech level system. They might tweak existing units a little to get things to fit with the new ones, but I doubt that there will be any reason to add a whole new level....  [Read More]

And the Underworld won't be the only ones with cloaking technology. The Empire get the TIE Phantoms, and I'm sure the Rebels will get some sort of cloaked ship as well. I like the idea; it should add a little something to the space battles....  [Read More]

I think they'll be relatively evenly matched. The outcome of a fight might rely on whether or not any of them were hurt before the fight began, if there are other units available to support one of them, etc. And that introduces another question: wi...  [Read More]

If Bel Iblis makes it into the game it will almost certainly be post-Endor. It makes no sense to add a hero in the expansion pack that concentrates on the ESB/RotJ time period and then insert a character as he was before even the events of the origin...  [Read More]

Yes, there's no reason to change Vader flying in his TIE. He's already working fine as both a ground and space hero. I would have thought they'd do the same with Luke Skywalker and Red Squadron, but apparently not....  [Read More]

I like the idea of a mobile space factory. Like a smaller space station, only it can (presumably) hyperspace away. And speaking of Kyle Katarn... doesn't his ship, the Mouldy Crow, reside in the game code somewhere? They might implement it in the e...  [Read More]

No, but it doesn't make sense either that they just stand there and allow themselves to be squashed. My reasoning was that if you put them in "Take Cover"-mode, they automatically dodge aside when someting tries to run them over....  [Read More]

It would be nice if they made infantry so that it wouldn't be so easy to run them over with vehicles. For examples, when they're in "Take Cover"-position they would be immune to being run over. And yes, terrain that can only be traversed...  [Read More]

They'll either be more expensive or (I think) have significantly less firepower. The Phantom will probably be more of a reconnaissance unit than a front-line combat unit....  [Read More]
