Alright, I am back. I guess we should go over skill max's then, shall we? The way I originally imagined it was some what like so:

 

 

poor 1-10

average11-20

Decent 21-30

Good 31-40

Great 41-50

Exceptional 51-60

Heroic 61-70

Legendary 71-80

Mythic 81-90

God-like 91-100

 

 

However, I want to see how you all think it should be organized, as well as opinions and such since I am sure more of you have them on this subject, and I welcome the input.

Well, it depends on how quickly levels are gained in each skill. I'm assuming that skills level up each time you put them to use, would that be right?

Aye.

As I said, points will be gained basically every day from doing many sorts of things, even just managing your faction.

Well then I would say that that's a fair way to do it.

Also question, but Star/Raa...why you choosing Slugthrower weapons? I mean you have your preferences and the like, choose what you want. But I have some info, that you may wanna know before deciding if you really wanna have Slugthrower tech.

Feel free to provide your information.

I will add though that Slugthrowers are not Shatter guns. While both fire a projectile, they are very different. Any evidence you have that speaks to slugthrowers is not applicable to Shatter guns thanks to the massive differences.

The size of a Verpine Shatter gun's projectile is much smaller than your average slugthrower and going exceptionally faster. It is also far more versatile (being able to fire rocks if needed).

It has also apparently been perfected by the Verpine over decades of work and is an expensive and rather low-key weapon kept as almost a "trade secret" by assassins and hunters.

Now this I hope is enough to keep you at bay for now... Verps appear in every Karen Traviss book written and it is driving me bonkers trying to find the right source for the specific "deadly against sabers" quote/feat as it wasn't well detailed for me in the Wiki.

if someone has any of these following sourcebooks could you please look for it for me.

Galladinium's Fantastic Technology

The New Essential Guide to Weapons and Technology

Arms & Equipment Guide

The Unknown Regions

I'll add Troy Denning uses the Shatter rifle/gun in his writings as well... god I'd have to reread every Clone Commando book and half the Legacy of the force books AND Fate of the Jedi: Apocalypse, AND two of the Swarm War books...

The Wiki says nearly impossible for a saber to stop. I trust that, only someone well-skilled in saber deflection would be able to stop one. I refuse to reread all that, I have far better uses of my time. The internet failed me, if someone wants to try and go through all those books for the verp references feel free.

Well, like I said, nothing about its effectiveness against lightsabers is mentioned in the New Essential Guide to Weapons and Technology, and I don't have the other ones, so I can't help you there.

OK, what are we doing for ground troops?

Basically, you need to count up what your ships can carry and choose the units you want. Nothing elite.

Very simple answer, and easy to decipher if you have ever messed with your friends before. Enjoy!

Sil I made a change to my leader's skills because I found a problem.

Original:

Mobility - 4

(That four points in a Tier 3 skill )

Fixed:

Mobility -3

Also took a point from:

Doctrines: 4 - 1 =3

And used the now two points to add:

Air - 2

How did I miss that! :eek:

(After done responding to Kaggath Posts, going to dive in and check... EVERYTHING... _frown: )

Side Note: I am sure someone will solve that simplistic code with the answer in regards to troops. Trust me Aurbere, once you know how to decipher it, it is facepalm worthy.

So troops = more math...

Solve the code and find out.

Did you doubt it would be so?

*sigh* No.

*sigh* No.

On the upside, once all the ship costs are worked out, it will be 100x easier to figure it all out.

My numbers are most unsatisfactory.

Why? What did you get?

17,340

Compared to Star's insta-30,000 off his big ship, it's no good.

25,360 Crew (mixed Races, Human, Weequay, Wookie, Duro's, Rodians, small amounts of Devironians and Ubese as well as a couple Mandalorian gunners. 10% Droids (varying jobs, Astromech, Garbage, Engineer, Protocol, Pilot, Medical, serving droids... the basics you know)

3,860 troops: 5%(193) Wookie Berserkers (common weapons for them), 2%(76) gamorrean (varieing Melee weapons) 18% OOM Battle droids, 10% B2 battle droids, 3% Legionare droids, 1% " http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Defiler " type, 1% http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Droideka_Mark_II 60% Mixed races with mixed weapons ( Races include 15% weequay, 18% human, 12% Duro, 10% Rodians, and 5% Ubese) weapons bellow.

105,800 metric ton (35,398 Metric tons empty space for aquired goods) (66,042 Metric Ton's "Basic Supplies" IE ammo, medical supplies, Missiles, scanning equipment, tool kits... any basic Item you could think of needing. Including a few things like http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/MobileMortar-3 also with the E-web configuration several different types of blasters; rifles (popular models include E-11 and A280), sniper (popular model likely E-17d), Carbine (popular models include E5 for the OOM's and some wookies will use X1, For the standard troop popular ones would include DXR6 and SFOR Republic carbine as well as the DH-17), Hold-out (popular model being the Q4) , hand gun (popular models likely being DL-44's and Renegade blaster), and Heavy repeating blasters (popular models being E-web). They would also have rocket Launchers (including the PLX line). And some stationary artillery such as the FPC AA gun, and 1.4 FD tower and DF .9 (food and water is provided under "consumables" which isnt listed as part of the cargo space, a lot of fighters means a need for a lot of fuel and ammo and repair, a lot of people means need for medical supplies and basic weapons stuff....)

Leaving 4,420 Metric tons available for 4 http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Ultra-Light_Assault_Vehicle (average car weight is 2 metric tons... this is slightly armored, so assuming as much as 15 Metric tons x 4 = 60) , 1000 http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/74-Z_speeder_bike (average Dirt bike weight is around 400 pounds or 180 Kilo's less then 20% of a Metric ton x 1000= 200 Metric tons) , 15 http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Infantry_Support_Platform (based on previous numbers estimating 30 Metric tons each x15 450 Metric tons) , 10 http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Hover_Transport_TC9 (large planes seem to potentially weight as much as 60 metric tons x10 = 600) (likely other shuttle types (adding in 2,000 metric tons for this. or around 10 extra shuttles including 1 Lamba and a few LAAT) , 3 http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Heavy_Tracker (also around 60 tons x3 =180), 5 http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/S-1_FireHawke_Heavy_Repulsortank (also around 60 tons x 5= 300, and 6 http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Rebel_Armored_Freerunner (assuming at least 120 Metric tonsx 6= 720).

Edit: for estimates on AT-AT's and the like, I think size wise they are closer to destroyers... I put them around 600-700 Metric tons... at least, if not a full 1K.

This about what you are looking for?

What do I do about "troops and crew".... Mixed races Pirate????

Edit with Sil's numbers

4 ULAV x 10= 40 +1000 Speeder bike x 1= 1040 + 15 ISP x10= 1,590 +20 shuttle craft x 100= 2,000= 3,590 + 3 Heavy tracker = 3,890 + 5 Firehawke= 4,390 +6 free runner = 4,990.

I honestly dont lose much space and can probably just drop a few speeder bikes and changes a few free runners into ULAV's and be fine.

We're totaling troops up from passengers, right?

Mhm, as well as how many vehicles your ships can take. Though, I already told you all you need to know earlier.

I don't have any concrete numbers for vehicles. Just troops, which totals up around 15,900
