Is there a maximum number of races, or can you just keep adding. I remember A1 could only have 4 races, whereas A2 you could just keep adding (at least I managed to get it up to 15 races). I don't have EAW yet, I still have a few contests open where...  [Read More]

I found Vader to be quite effective (use long runs on the corvettes, try to attack from the rear for een longer runs, you'll have to mircomanage him). 1 long run can take down the shields and do some damage to the ship. Though sometimes he doesn't wa...  [Read More]

Alright, I just got the game and I now have the very same problem. And no I don't hear any weird noises. The PC is silent instead (though that is kinda weird). It didn't load in a full 5 minutes. My system: Intel Pentium 4 2533 MHz 512 MB NVidia Gef...  [Read More]

Just an educated guess, but one that has helped me with several other games that were both DVD and CD games. If you use the DVD version, try to switch it for a CD version, and vice versa. I found this out because I generally buy the DVD version first...  [Read More]

It sounds to me like your PC is too busy doing other things, though I have a few ideas that might help. Please note that I don't have the game (yet) and that these are only general ideas. 1 Check to see what your PC is doing and how busy it is with...  [Read More]

That only works for low level space stations, as the larger ones have the corvette and at some point even the Nebulon-B as spawning units. Still, I've always found it to be most effective to take out the reinforcement points first on the smaller stat...  [Read More]

I just use Admiral Piett with his proton beam to take out the launch bay, Boba Fett to take out the fighters, and since Piett is already near the station, he can blow the rest of it to bits, with some fighter and bomber support. If the Rebels even ha...  [Read More]

Good tips there, thanks! You're welcome, I found it really annoying to keep hiring bounty hunters to take out the smugglers, so I developed some tactics for this. Same goes with the big ships. Besides in the demo the big ships builders have 3 slots,...  [Read More]

Conquer the planet in the upper left corner, that one doubles the income from all mining on all of your planets. I always build mines on empty slots, but in the latest bryant & ghost's mod you can only build 1 mine per planet. Though I have seen...  [Read More]

Nice demo, but I stilll think EAW is much better. But at elast they dropped the castles and stuff and used a free build mode. And I would like to create my own heros as well (without modding one in that is). Walls aren't really usefull though, unless...  [Read More]

Yes, pretty usefull. I don't know about the max number of building in the final game, in the demo it's 6 as well as all mods, because they only use the tatooine map. I do believe there were mods that had a higher number, but those maps caused crashes...  [Read More]

I don't really know what exactly happens when you blow a planet up. Only thin I know for sure is that there's no ground assault. And no ground to place your Hyperthingy. Also I think it would be good to know if you can still build the big ships on pl...  [Read More]

There is a STvsSW mod for A2 out there, but it didn't go past the demo. There is also a complete one for A1. The A2 version should work with the A2 demo as well. Here's some links, you'll have to use the search funtion on the sites though. armada2fi...  [Read More]

I think your eyesight should be able to detect cloaked units, possibly by disturbances in the terrain (suck as dust clouds). You generally can't see very far, unless the terrain is wide open. Or you might hear them. Still I don't know what the possib...  [Read More]

I agree with you on the units. For a general layout of the units I'd use I think the feds would mostly use fast repulsorlift vehicles, giving them a huge disadvantage when fighting on planest where repulsorlifsts are disabled. They would also use so...  [Read More]
