I voted yes as in "only 2 civs?" and instead voted for more civs, so up there it should be no. Why no? I believe what people were looking for is the pre-trilogy, clone wars civs- republic and confederacy. I have argued no, for a couple of...  [Read More]

Hm... at the least there should be a planet editor and a map editor, so you should be able to make your own planets and galaxies. A RMG would be good if it allows you to select # of planets, only thing to think about is if planets have something in...  [Read More]

Is deep space going to exist? They never really mentioned it in the previews, just how many planets. I'd like it, adds some time to gameplay, and also lets you mass stuff away from other forces, so you can mass an army outside someone else's view, li...  [Read More]

Here's how we should do hero ships. You have a hero (say, Han Solo, for instance) Put Han inside a YT-1300 freighter. Slowly, the hit points increase, it gets a better armament, better deflector shields, gets faster, etc. Another Example would be l...  [Read More]

I guess you could say it resembled zero hour, except zero hour was a hugely unbalanced game and this doesn't look that way... yet. As for not tracking targets, the fighters did track enemies and vehicles moving. They just needed to remain in your LOS...  [Read More]

First off, Empire at War will be a full game, and if you want to continue a accusation of sorts please make another thread on why you think it is only half a game. I explained to you once that depth is always better than more civs. A perfect example...  [Read More]

If you do it, you need it to be built REAL slow, and it can not force itself into hyperspace like the other ships. And the primary weapon must recharge for something like 5 minutes, with a timer showed to the other players so they can see how much ti...  [Read More]
