-NGE- Posted January 23, 2004 Share Posted January 23, 2004 ok sure i figure that it had the intention of being sort of a tutorial, but damn! lets take a look at the following facts: this was not a blockade runner/star destoyer type situation as we see in ANH. The Endar Spire is merely under attack from lots and lots of fighters. So why are there sith soldiers on board of the ship? How did they get there anyway? The Sith are planning to destroy the ship what kind of sense does it make for them to use "advance boarding parties." Then... what the hell is Darth Bandon thinking! What sense does it make for him to enter the ship. And shouldn't he be dead? I mean... when you escape from the ship together with Carth you can see it being blown up. Bandon should be killed in the explosion or am I just seeing this completely wrong? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twi'shak Posted January 23, 2004 Share Posted January 23, 2004 at almost the end you see another figure that looks just like brandon. But he isn't. Why do they invade the endar spire because darth malak wants bastila. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-NGE- Posted January 23, 2004 Author Share Posted January 23, 2004 oh indeed, that was the reason... they want bastila... and the figure IS Bandon. When you face him later in the game you can say "Hey! you were the one who killed Trask Ulgo! You'll pay for that!" but ok, they land on the ship cos they want Bastila... but what vessels to they use to land? From what I understood they can only enter a ship if it is linked to another ship (ie, blockade runner/star destroyer) and not just by jumping out of their fighters onto the ship and hoping they can find some sort of entrance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drakron Posted January 23, 2004 Share Posted January 23, 2004 Well if you played TIE Fighter you see there are assault transports. Either they used the Endar Spire docking bay (after all there are no transporters in Star Wars and pretty much every capital ship must have one) or used assault trasports, Brandon was likely told to pull out before the ship was destroyed.

-NGE- Posted January 23, 2004 Author Share Posted January 23, 2004 hmm ok... that sounds logical enough... oh and it's Bandon.. Brandon makes him sound as if he came straight out of Beverly Hills 90210 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anach Posted January 23, 2004 Share Posted January 23, 2004 Seeing Malak was shortly seen in orbit and was already searching for crashed pods when you woke up. His ship must of been there in the background. He didnt want to destroy the Endar Spire, because he was trying to capture Bastilla for her battle meditation.

Let me, for once, look at you with my owns eyes. *Boswalker proceeds to lift off Zalm's face which turns out of be a mask he has worn all along, only to reveal:* Boswalker: JAN MARIJNISSE!!! I knew there was some Left Side left in you! Darth Zalm: Tell your sister you were right about me... Boswalker: Sister? Darth Zalm: Did Wim Kok never tell you? Femke Halsema! Has she not always stood by you on the Left Side? Boswalker: *cries* Femke... *Darth Zalm dies* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lukeiamyourdad Posted January 24, 2004 Share Posted January 24, 2004 What the??? Sorry, I'm jus a bit curious about what you dutch guys are talking about. Who are those people? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-NGE- Posted January 24, 2004 Author Share Posted January 24, 2004 they're all political figures... Wouter Bos is the chairman of the Workers Party (left wing party). Bos means forest in dutch, so I transformed it into Boswalker Femke Halsema is a woman who's the chairman (chair woman?) of Groenlinks (literally translated Greenleft) which is also a left wing party. Then you have Jan Marijnissen who is the chairman of the Socialist Party. Gerrit Zalm (Darth Zalm ) is the chairman of the VVD, the People's party of Freedom and Democracy, which is right wing. Balkende is our prime minister so he plays the roll of the emperor (though if you've even seen him on TV, he's far from frightening... most people think he's a striking resemblace of harry potter...) Now I don't mean to imply that the left wingers are the good people and the right wingers are the bad people, cos frankly I don't care... I think all politicians are a bunch of raving morons anyway... so that's the explanation I hope it helps you understand the parody abit better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
