“Sir, there is no ‘back door’,” Corporal Darmen, a Mandalorian near to him equipped with a rocket-launcher, said confused.

“Then make one,” he said.


I think it's mandatory that every war movie have that line. Brought a huge smile to my face...

Ouch! Using their own dead as camo? Dirty scarheads. Worked, unfortunately. Nice action, Corran.

Guess you're right. But it worked as planned, anyway grin .
A hardcore Clone-fan will probably notice more about this line...

Vor entye, ner vod. I really appreciate that. happy

Concering the writing speed: You're right, an update all four days, yet my chapters are all pretty short (not more than 1500 words). Yours have sometimes 3000 or more words in one chapter, so that levels it.... wink

Was just bored and made a photomanip on that Alfreda Goot pic.

Now this is Atross in his armor:



I know, I wrote that he has a orange and red armor, but I think this one looks better.

Tell me what you think.

Very nice, Dave. happy

I was kinda hoping they would fight the Vong-equivalent to the AT-AT head-on via their jetpacks, but that's just me. tongue

And I really like that backdoor line, heh.

Good idea, but why wasting fuel and ammo when they already have the whole building set up for detonation? They just make the AT-AT-equivalent enter the hangar and then blow it up. Two birds with one strike... grin

Actually, it was you who brought me on that idea, so credit goes to Antilles. wink

Well, I only know the German word for it, what is "vibrorakete" and it's a rocket/missile that has a warhead that explodes in a very, very big *boom* - actually, I think those rockets are only fired by starships... the only missile above it is AFAIK the proton torpedo.

Anyone tell me if this crap is correct? tongue
