It seems that when they increased the map size, they added a few planes of movement.

It's hard to scale ships unless we can be sure they are moving on the same plane.

I'm more curious though in what the hell is it going to take for the Rebels to take that damn thing out? I hope the Rebels get something a tad more powerful than a Mon Cal cruiser possibly bringing back the Bulwark? Otherwise it'd take 12 Mon Cal's to take that sucker out...possibly more.

"Incorrect--played TIE Fighter? While not an RTS, it demonstrates an excellent use of multiple battle fronts. The Rebels may have been pulling off some victories on screen, but they lost in a hell of a lot of other places. It's certainly possible for an Imperial campaign that fits in with the films. "

I said on a strategic level...think "Rebellion" or "Empire at War". "Tie Fighter" is about as tactical as you can get.
I don't know why a game in which the empire can win the war is so upsetting to people.
In World War 2 strategic level games the possiblity of the Axis Winning is a given.

I guess you didn't read my comments on page 1. I don't care about gaming continuity, I stopped caring and I just want a fun game. I don't care if the Death Star blows up Yavin IV and Endor so long as its a fun game. Hell I'd prefer the Empire to be taking names for a change instead of getting its ass spanked in every game.

Perhaps. But I've played space games before, and unless a company cnamake something NEW---like full 3D Homeworld 2 combat---I won't even bother blinking at her.

Look, I've played all the 2D flat-plane games before. In this tech adn age, if they can't bother to 3D space combat, such a niceh market as it is, why should I bother?

The new ships sound awesome, I really hope that it is true, SSD would be awesome, B-wings and Interceptors would be great too.

If you guys are argueing about the game not following the film then I suggest you do the following.



WATCH THE TRAILERS!




In both it says you have the power to repeat what happen in the SW universe, or CHANGE IT!

Also, it says that there's a scripted campaign based on events that conflict with continuity! Even worse than in the first game!

That might actualy be the answer, in RotJ it only took one A-wing to destroy the SSD, maybe they can crash into bridges of Star Destroyers

I'm going to wait to see how they work out the story with the Eclipse and the "crewing issue" before I condemn it to suck. With Star Wars you can seriously make just about anything happen. It's kind of like Star Trek in that way. wink
