star wars lover Posted January 2, 2006 Posted January 2, 2006 I saw this screen shot in a diff thread. http://www.sw-eaw.de/galerie/org/414.jpg I was wounding if anyone knew what that Ring was around the planet? Thanks in advance Um...we don't really know what that thing is...you should proabably ask Delphi-PG;he will have the answer for you.
bbJunker Posted January 2, 2006 Posted January 2, 2006 This is a part of the planet Kuat in Star Wars. It is typically for this planet. You can also see it on this Screen: Kuat
starmark2k Posted January 2, 2006 Posted January 2, 2006 I'd say it was somthing mentioned in the EU so the Dev felt they should proberly add it for the realism aspect of the SW verse'. I't proberly just going to be a bit of seinery which serves no real purpose. On the other hand it could be apart of the Kuat Drive yards and is a weapons platform of some description.
drogeney Posted January 2, 2006 Posted January 2, 2006 Knowing that in the fiction that Kuat is a fairly major shipyard it might be some sort of representation of said ship yard. I think there was a translation for that picture somewhere that mentioned it was a raid on a shipyard or something like that.
shadowsfm Posted January 2, 2006 Posted January 2, 2006 the game star caption for tht pic says you need to know your stringths and weaknesses of your units. at least the corelion corvettes can out range the defence satalites
Monkey's Wrath Posted January 2, 2006 Posted January 2, 2006 I don't know for sure, but my guess is that it is a shipyard, knowing that Kuat is a major producer of Star Destroyers. However, I wouldn't be surprised if it was a defense system, like Starmark2k said.
THrawn((9 Posted January 2, 2006 Posted January 2, 2006 it cant be a Ubiquatory base as they are on the Planet itself and Kuat never had one, but as a vivid fan of the EU i cna say hoonestly that KUat has never had a Ring around it the only thing that it has is an ubundance of ShipYards. but the only place that had anything like this is Duro and they are the Orbital Cities.
Foshjedi2004 Posted January 2, 2006 Posted January 2, 2006 Ubiqtorate Bases are not on the Planet!! They are a ring of Facilities around a Planet
revillsp Posted January 2, 2006 Author Posted January 2, 2006 So....in other words, one knows what it is
shadowsfm Posted January 2, 2006 Posted January 2, 2006 i say its a giant ship yard where they work on star destroyers and other ships so huge, it circles the planet. cant be a defence platform, because thats what the defence satalites are for
Jan Gaarni Posted January 2, 2006 Posted January 2, 2006 That's the first time I've heard about the Imperial Intelligence having laaaaarge ring bases around planets, Fosh. You better provide me with some info on this, I haven't found any yet.
artisen12 Posted January 2, 2006 Posted January 2, 2006 maybe its something like the Taris Station in KOTOR 2
starmark2k Posted January 2, 2006 Posted January 2, 2006 maybe its something like the Taris Station in KOTOR 2 If you mean citadel station around Telos as seen in KotORII:TSL. That didn't surround the planet it just covered a section of it.
jake123456 Posted January 2, 2006 Posted January 2, 2006 This is the info I found about this planet. http://starwars.wikicities.com/wiki/Kuat_Drive_Yards I'm shure that the ring are the enormous shipyards of the planet.
revillsp Posted January 2, 2006 Author Posted January 2, 2006 This is the info I found about this planet. http://starwars.wikicities.com/wiki/Kuat_Drive_Yards I'm shure that the ring are the enormous shipyards of the planet. I don't think it is that, theres a picture of a SD going though the middle of the ring ship yard. Where im asking about the ring around the planet itself
Jamps Posted January 2, 2006 Posted January 2, 2006 I think I know what it is. Have any of you ever played Rogue Squadren 3: Rebel Strike? On the first mission with Wedge, you have to go head on against something that looks just like it while defending Rebel Transports. So, I guess it is a defense base.
popcorn2008 Posted January 2, 2006 Posted January 2, 2006 Hmmm.... did anyone notice the population limit in that screenshot is 25, not 20? My guess is it was either taken earlier before they changed the limit, or its a mission specific pop limit. Or, maybe the rebels can get some sort of space advantage? Hehe I doubt it but it would be cool.

Hehe I doubt it but it would be cool. Yeah, i did notice that, but i thought it was something to do with being rebels as the Imprial Fighters Don't cost Pop where as the Rebel fighters do
shadowsfm Posted January 2, 2006 Posted January 2, 2006 i said on the other thread that captain antilis may have a +5 pop cap bonus
shadowsfm Posted January 3, 2006 Posted January 3, 2006 i was thinking that too. but halo has a planet with in the ring, almost like a reversed surfice, where, when you look up with a telescope, you can see land above you. halo doesnt have a sun does it? speeking of suns. star wars galaxies has no sun when your in space, makes me wounder if you can see the sun and moons in this game
Jan Gaarni Posted January 3, 2006 Posted January 3, 2006 They never filmed against the sun, because it would make the movies harder to watch.
warhawk121 Posted January 3, 2006 Posted January 3, 2006 i dont suppose they could be golan defense platforms?
