  1. Well yeah. Isn't that what you're supposed to do on a DS Rampage? The original plan was to just leave Coruscant but then I thought...what the hell.
  2. No, you read it right. I just wanted to see if it was possible to clear the map and still win. The answer: Yep
  3. Ok, so I tried the Death Star Rampage and learned that is possible (with RebEd) to completely wipe out every system on the map. I did a large galaxy and made all of my characters have 100 diplomacy and everything cost zero maintenance. I then proceeded to rampage the outer rim then Sesswenna (except for a well fortified shipyard just in case) and then the inner rim. I left one rebel planet which must have housed the base and then wiped out Coruscant and the shipyards then the last rebel planet. The map was empty and the game decided to just cut to the chase and show the winning movie. Finally getting to use that death star was well worth it.
  4. I didn't realize this was considered spam. However, pictures with the description would be cool.
  5. Seeing as how the Star Wars Pick-up Lines thread is locked, I thought of a new way we can have fun that is a bit classier. In this thread try to come up with some sort of product that could be used in the Star Wars Universe and give it a catchy slogan or use something already in the Star Wars Universe. I'll go first so you can see what I mean. Nssis-class Clawcraft, Chiss that x-wing's a$$ goodbye Cybernetic Limbs, because not everyone let's the wookie win. http://www.geocities.com/clrnt/wookie.gif

    joke

    The manager of an office firm had been noticing how exceptionally well one of his employees was doing at his job. Knowing that this young man's talent would be better suited for running one of the other firms in the corporation the manager put in a good word and was able to get him a transfer to Canada where he would be managing his very own office. The manager approached the young man and said "Congratulations, you got that manager's position in Canada!" The young man replied, "Canada!? I don't want to go to Canada! There's nothing there but hockey players and prostitutes!" Appalled by what the young man said, the manager quickly responded by saying "Excuse me, but my wife is Canadian." The young man sheepishly replied, "Really, what team does she play on?"
  7. Agreed. I don't ever remember laughing so hard in a game. The way he just nonchalantly talks about how he assassinated "meatbags" is hilarious.
  8. Mandalore wrote the above in a different thread and I thought it best to reply here. It's a very interesting thought that would make sense. As grateful as I was to see better lightsaber fights than Obi vs Vader had to offer in the Original Trilogy, I just felt that Lucas went too "Hollywood" on the prequels. The OT may have been lame in graphics standards but it's what really made the movie memorable. For instance, I kind of missed the puppeteered Sy Snoodles do the very limited movement dance on Jabba's stage. Granted nobody is going to watch puppets this day and age (unless they prank call somebody) but some of the scenes just felt overdone. Not to mention that none of the characters really scare me the way Darth and the Emperor do on RoTJ. (side note: After watching RoTJ at age 5 I was always afraid that one day I would pee force lightning ,no joke. Although I'm not quite sure why that's where my force lightning would come out. I was a weird kid.) George Lucas isn't the only one enhancing (and ruining) his movies though. I recently watched Pee Wee's Big Adventure on DVD and was disappointed to see that they fixed the scenes where you can see the bike chain being tugged from somewhere off screen through the bucket on the bike. Likewise they also fixed the scene where you can see the silly road signs being pulled by ropes. It would be like George Lucas digitally removing the stormtrooper that bangs his head on the door. What I'm getting at is that remakes seldom have the same magic that the originals did even with advanced technology. To go back and change something hokey and make it more glamorous only ruins the memories that people have growing up with the films. So it doesn't surprise me that your generation takes to the prequels like some of the older crowd here did to the originals. This is YOUR Star Wars, we've already had ours and nothing else will compare in our minds. Just remember, if you ever hear George Lucas say he's going to enhance the prequels in 20-30 years get a petition ready.
  9. Ewww ... "Let's have a lightsaber duel. Look, no hands!" ... ...ewww again
  10. I can't get the screen thing to happen again so maybe it was just a weird windows quirk. Just thought I would make sure in case others are having the same problem and just not posting it. Still enjoying the Reloaded Beta though, well worth the wait.
  11. "Do you have ysalamari? Because I can feel myself getting weaker around you."
  12. I got to day 3000 and all of a sudden the two sector windows and my open fleet screens vanished along with a few buttons. After a few random left clicks things slowly started to reappear. No data was lost and the game is still running with no other weird occurrences. Its never happened to me before when playing rebellion so I figured maybe the TC had something to do with it. Anybody else have this problem? Also, if my fleet attacks an opposing fleet the retreat button is still that of rebellion. However, if my fleet is attacked it is the retreat button for reloaded.
  13. I've never had any trouble with my death star. Of course, the first time I played rebellion (like most people probably did) I went a bit nuts and started blowing stuff up. Not a good idea. Now I build a death star to stand watch over Coruscant and when I've got the rebels cornered to just one planet left on the map they get a special surprise. On a side note, I actually had a game where Luke decided to take a mission to Coruscant from the last rebel planet in the outer rim right before I blew it to smithereens. I had to wait until he was captured there while the whole galaxy was splattered in green stars before the game said "Ok, I guess you win."
  14. I'm with you. I went through the whole game again with super high computer skills and started at Tatooine just so that I could get all of the stories out of HK-47. To heck with the other meatbags, HK-47 ruled. Too bad as an assassin droid his stats stunk.
  15. Aw man, buzz kill. SOCL, you couldn't have posted that sooner? We were a few posts away from getting this thread back on the right track. Okay, we're going to try this one more time... "Hey, there's no need to shut down ALL the trash compactors on your detention level."
