Sil you pretty much described the 1.4 FD P-Towers used by the Rebels, which did jack *** against the AT-ATs at the battle of Hoth, even when firing at the legs multiple times.

 

Eeeeeh... Those are stated *on the wiki at least* to only be light anti-vehicle. The Pulse cannon seems, to me at least, to have quite a bit more oomph.

 

Also, while it is likely game mechanics from EaW...

 

"In large groups, these tanks could take down even the heaviest armor, such as the Imperial AT-AT, as well as buildings, although they often had trouble with faster-moving targets. If they had to take down faster-moving targets, the crew would move the tank and run the target over."

 

The crux being that the AT-AT could destroy them real quick, whereas they had to charge their shots. So... Try not to go face to face.

Now would be the time for everyone to re-read the entirety of the OP and to bring forth any and all thoughts, opinions, suggestions, concerns, and ect.

When it comes to lasers/turbolasers, standard=medium imo. It just doesnt make sense for there to be a difference between the two.

Can you elaborate on Movement the spaces thing I don't get?Also with construction we can build anything on our planet right like shipyards and other industrial complex.

True, but I believe I did that since there are times when medium =/= normal, or when they were non-descript. I could see an argument for abolishing the Normal turbolaser and just have the 3 power levels, but I would like more input before such is done.

Anything your faction knows how to build, and you have the resources, you may build basically. As for the movement, that is indirect relation to the galactic map we have. It is divided into boxes with a x and y axis, so that is what the movement is referring to.

OK thank you.A few more questions first superweapons Won't br allow right so no deathstars or suncrushers?How are the faction form coming?Lastly I think the Galactic Empire should be its Imperial Remnants instead just seems more fitting also I don't want to have Vader come a knocking.

In regards to super weapons:

 

They ARE in the game. They however are NOT easy to come by in anyway at all. Nor will any be unlocked before they have the access given from the moderator. If they strive towards such and manage to meet the requirements, most will have to sacrifice much else. That, and each one has its own weakness as we have seen from the EU.

 

In regards to the Galactic Empire:

 

While it is matched against the other factions of history, it still constitutes the strength that it used to have, from its prime if you will. Now, not to say it will stomp anyone or other factions, but let us just say it is the most hated faction of all, perhaps minus the Vong. Due to this, if nothing else, they would have filled the power vacuum quickly and united in order to have their Empire survive. Unlike in EU, they are not only faced with other Admirals with fleets from their own faction and small rebel nats. Here, there are entire Empires to oppose them. Essentially meaning that they are less willing to devolve into a civil war, ala the pretty much prime Galactic Empire.

 

In regards to Darth Vader:

 

It is much too quiet here... So I suppose I could give an example as to how to setup a Faction, finale style.

 

 

Style: Imperial, Militaristic, and Heavy use of Droids.

 

Influenced By: Galactic Empire, Sith Empire, and the CIS.

 

Starting Location: Coruscant (No changing it once stated here unless Arbiter orders it)

 

Faction Trait 1: Due to the focus on the military and the excessive use of droids, they have developed incredibly advanced AI. Increase Overall Droid Effectiveness.

 

Faction Trait 2: While no military is perfect, after many years of turmoil and conflict, all of its soldiers have become extremely disciplined and trust their commanders with their lives. Increased Loyalty to the Faction, and Discipline.

 

Faction Trait 3: Having achieved control of the Galaxy, the Arbiter Empire has managed to enforce a monopoly on tech beyond most other factions. Increased Technology Effectiveness.

 

Bio: Details, details, details! They rule the galaxy. All is proceeding as I have foreseen...

 

Faction Goals:

 

1. Maintain control of the Galaxy.

 

2. Influence the lesser factions.

 

3. Ensure no one boards their Flagship.

 

Starting Fleet: Link

 

Starting Units: Link

 

Starting Leader: Link

 

Known Forces (by square):

 

Fleet 1 - Flagship, 2 Executor's, 12 large carriers, and numerous boarding craft. - Coruscant (Galactic Center)

 

Fleet 2 - Two Imperial Star Destroyers and Six Victory Star Destroyers. - Byss (K-11)

 

Further Details: Include everything you can think of about your faction. I really hope you have more to put here than I do for this totally random one!!! Things such as philosophy, preferred fighting styles, or even past interactions. Go nuts, the more data, the better!

Style: Privateer, Mercenaries.

 

Starting Location: Vergresso Astroid Field

 

Influenced by: Tenloss Syndicate, Black Sun, Rebel Alliance, Galactic Empire

 

 

Faction Trait 1: Family. The members of the "Salty" pirates are a big family they have worked together for a while, and those that are "younger and newer" are literally pulled from family members and friends. They have unprecedented coordination and loyalty.

 

Faction Trait 2: Adaptibility. The "Salty" pirates are Mercs that will take any job, they have adapted to most situations they find themselves in and nearly any terrain type.

 

Faction Trait 3: Cover Story. Unless the group is well versed in the Black Market, "Salty's" pirates appear as a legitimate business, and can and will be hired for legal jobs, both local and outside of town.

 

Bio: Saltik began this organization, with friends and people he had met growing up. Those disillusioned by the war. Imperials who have come to see the empire as oppressive, but to powerful to truly oppose, and Rebels who have come to see the rebellion as mostly disruptive to the peace. They have worked together for some time and become close friends. Seeing that if people would just work together the galaxy could be much safer, but as long as people were this way, as long as the Rebellion was disruptive to peacful lives, and the Empire was supressive of peoples freedoms there was no reason why they could not make a profit off it, so that THEIR families could live in peace and freedom. Burn the Lands and boil the Seas, it doesnt matter they are still free no one can take the sky from Salty's crew. They use Saltik's nobel herritage, and the guise of a legitimate business to keep any authorities from bothering them.

 

Faction Goal

 

1. Find a Crew,

2. Find a Job,

3. and keep flying.

 

 

Starting Fleet

1. "Salty" Pirate Fleet

2."Salty" Pirate Forces needs more work.

3."Salty"

4. Lt. Reese

5. Fyyl

6. Freed

7. Jarkin

Edited August 26, 2015 by tunewalker

Added the Intelligence Tech Tree to the OP, as well as the Faction outline and an approximate estimate of each of the 14 NPC Factions approximate strength in relation to each other. Feedback is of course welcome. Adding the Territory map momentarily. Do not take advantage of me posting it before the game begins...

 

Side Note: Tune, don't forget a name!

The Galactic Inquisition

 

Style: Imperial, Unorthodox, Propagandist

 

Influenced By: Galactic Empire, The Chiss Ascendency, The Jedi and Sith, The Republic

 

Starting Location: Ord Mantell

 

Faction Trait 1: Explorers. Due to a lot of time spent exploring the Unknown Regions the members of this faction can traverse the galaxy quicker than others and receive no penalty when traveling into the Unknown Regions.

 

Faction Trait 2: Meritocracy and Experience. The officers and soldiers of the Inquisition are highly experienced from their time fighting in the Unknown Regions, giving an overall boost to troop effectiveness and skill.

 

Faction Trait 3: Knowers of Secrets. Due to connections within Imperial Intelligence before its inception, the Inquisition knows things most others do not, especially in regards to planetary officials. This in turn aids operations when working to bribe or plotting against political leaders.

Just changed one of my leaders innate abilities.

Just finished playing a mission in AvP Extinction (an Alien vs Predator RTS) finally got the medal for it on hard mode. The Medals are so rediculously hard on some of the missions. Only 2 more predator ones to go, till I have the medals on all the Pred missions . I am hoping all these RTS's are going to help in this game lol Edited March 11, 2015 by tunewalker

Funny enough, my response to your response, is the rest of the scene right before yours.

I think its wierd that GE and rebel space arent connected. Rest of map looks good.

They may not be connected, but who's to say the Rebels are not still perfroming missions against the GE? :p

 

Mostly, just trying to ensure the territories they hold, had history with that faction, as well as each faction being proportionately sized. GE, being the most militant in the galaxy, for numerous reasons, is part of why its the biggest.

Just saw the map, not sure if I just plopped myself down by the Chiss, or if I plopped myself down by the Republic. Chiss... not so good. Republic... not so bad .

If I recall, your plopped inside the CIS Territories, south of Republic Territory. So the real question you should be asking, is how well you will get along with the CIS.

CIS, thats what that thing said it was. Well considering...... I think it could go either way honestly. I am a business man, they are run by business men... We could get along. My business even looks completely Legal as far as they are concerned .
