Check this (http://http://www.m-w.com/dictionary/ellipsis). "2 : marks or a mark (as...) indicating an omission (as of words) or a pause" (emphasis mine). Really? I must admit, I did not know that part of the definition. I agree with yo...  [Read More]

Balance is more important than surplus units to choose from. Adding ships like the Dreadnaught, Venator and God forbid the overpowered Legacy of War Super Star Destroyer screw up the game balance to the point where it is no longer fun to play the gam...  [Read More]

Orzo, the Empire gets a number of new weapons. I believe the super star destroyer makes a big difference. Besides the Empire was lacking in the starfighter department anyway. P.S. Ellipses (...) are meant to omit a phrase while allowing complete syn...  [Read More]

I noticed there were 2 Capt. Piett units in one screenshot. I guess they are using him as a placeholder for another unit. Maybe Thrawn. http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y256/Cain2/DSC00529.jpg...  [Read More]

:lol: The "Canderous". That is so awesome! That's the way of making a nice reference without outright stealing something from another franchise. Thumbs up to Petro! It's amazing that 4,000 years after his death Canderous is still remember...  [Read More]

A Consortium is a group of individuals or companies formed to undertake an enterprise or activity that would be beyond the capabilities of the individual members. In other words Tyber Zann has organized a variety of shady groups (like Black sun) in...  [Read More]

Despite the seemingly huge fleets the AI builds I have never seen the AI build Mon Calimari cruisers though. I'm sure the battle would have turned out differently if they had 20 or 30 Mon Cals....  [Read More]

Boba Fett will remain on the Empire's side; the Underworld (now re-named the Zann Consortium) will have its own Bounty Hunter heroes. Mandalorians will be in the game as an indigenous unit. So Boba is still for the Empire? Heh, now I feel foolish....  [Read More]

No offense but you've just found that out? None taken. By the way I was talking to admiral sith because he said they were both placeholders and I was explaining that only one was a placeholder. What exactly did I "just found out"?...  [Read More]

One of them is NOT a placeholder because in the hero unit portraits (top right hand corner) Silri and Boba Fett are easily visible. I could be wrong but I think this indicates that Boba Fett is for the Corrupt faction....  [Read More]

You probably saw the list on Wookiepedia but we all know they are unreliable at best. So far I've seen Honoghr, Felucia, Mandolore, Bespin(cloud city), The Maw, Kamino, Seleucami and Hypori and that's about it. I heard Utapau and Mustafar are also s...  [Read More]
