Darth Ablett Posted September 30, 2006 Share Posted September 30, 2006 Just looking thorugh the pics Aayla posted - great job by the way - and there are a few pictures of the Merciless. It's an Aggressor-class ship. http://www.gamed.nl/messages/32174.jpg I was wondering who commands it? I assume Tyber, but I could be wrong. Urai doesn 't really seem like a pilot to me - he'd have to put his blades down. I also can't watch those three MTV trailers, are they able to be downloaded directly? Then maybe hosted in the empireatwar.net media section? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Andrew Posted September 30, 2006 Share Posted September 30, 2006 Though I don't know about the Merciless, for the MTV trailers, they can't be shown outside the USA due to copyright restrictions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Anarch Posted September 30, 2006 Share Posted September 30, 2006 Sure they can, I can see them without problems and I live in Norway. I posted a couple of direct links in the other thread, the one started by Sageking-PG; try those. And as for the Merciless, I too assumed it was Tyber's ship.

Darth_Torpid-PG Posted September 30, 2006 Share Posted September 30, 2006 You are correct - the Merciless is Tyber Zann's flagship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valter Posted September 30, 2006 Share Posted September 30, 2006 Normal Aggressor-class destroyers have the "self destruct" ability, obviously Tyber wouldn't blow himself up so there must be a substitute ability for the Merciless. Does anyone know what it is? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Anarch Posted September 30, 2006 Share Posted September 30, 2006 I haven't read anything about it anywhere, but it will probably be something underhanded and nasty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth_Torpid-PG Posted September 30, 2006 Share Posted September 30, 2006 The Merciless has a cloaking generator, and also has Blast (a high-powered shot from the main cannon that is pretty nasty; usually a one-hit kill for a hard point or smaller ships).

PoiuyWired Posted September 30, 2006 Share Posted September 30, 2006 Though I don't know about the Merciless, for the MTV trailers, they can't be shown outside the USA due to copyright restrictions. Learn to use Proxy Urai seems powerful in ground combat, and I wonder if he also gets to swap out his blasters, or use some dashing/uppercutting kick. I would love to see a "starfighter zooming" Urai, if only for fun. A Z-95 IS FINE TOO. Just stick him in a fighter, PLEASE!!!!!!!! No, I am not asking for a "Barrel Roll" special ability, nor will I ask for a team of pilots consisting a froghead, hot foxy chick, that starfox dude and a guy with long ears. But PLEASE give him a starfighter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OK cool, thanks. That white logo on the Consortium ships is pretty awesome. Also, I just watched the MTV videos - thanks for the direct link Anarch - and a thought struck me. What sort of gun does Tyber have on the ground? Damn that thing is powerful! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darth Ablett Posted October 1, 2006 Author Share Posted October 1, 2006 Something like this. Thanks, that's awesome! Good to know he's not alone in using large energy shotgun-pistols! So, from what we've seen so far, if the Consortium loses Tyber, they're stuffed. I wonder how long his recharge time is in GC? They need him on land, in space, and on the galactic level.

TheMonsterOfTheIsland Posted October 1, 2006 Share Posted October 1, 2006 Looks awesome! Just one question on the whole flagship thing: In Empire at War, when Boba Fett/Darth Vader are on a planet, Slave I/Tie Advance isn't in space anymore. This won't happen with these big flagships i.e. merciless/executor, right? Also, you will have to pay for these, right? Otherwise, it would be kinda stupid. I mean, the executor just vanashing into thin air just to put a sith lord on the planet? I just wanted to make sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Anarch Posted October 1, 2006 Share Posted October 1, 2006 It probably will, although I see your point. You'll just have to decide where Vader is most useful in case of a sudden attack, in space or on the ground. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth_Torpid-PG Posted October 2, 2006 Share Posted October 2, 2006 While it makes no real-world logical sense, it is required for in-game logic. In other words, yes, the ships disappear when you put the hero on the ground. The Executor needs to be purchased, the Merciless is spawned/free (though in the story campaign you have to work up to it). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Anarch Posted October 2, 2006 Share Posted October 2, 2006 Ah, you have to purchase the Executor. Excellent. Just having it handed to you for free would have been disappointing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMonsterOfTheIsland Posted October 2, 2006 Share Posted October 2, 2006 Well. That sucks. I mean, in Return of the Jedi, Vader isn't even on the Executor half the time. He's either on Endor or on the Death Star. Well, poo, i'll just have to XML piett to be in total command of the executor while having vader fly around independently in his little tie fighter. BTW, in the tie fighter games he does fly in a tie defender. I'm pretty sure that the executor is operational at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crezzer Fett Posted October 2, 2006 Share Posted October 2, 2006 wait wait...confused lol?!? When you get Vader in tech level 5 and don't purchase the Executor, does that mean he will be in his Tie Advanced untill you choose to purchase it?

Darth Anarch Posted October 2, 2006 Share Posted October 2, 2006 I'm betting it means you won't get Vader as a hero until you purchase the Executor. Oh, and in the canon Vader flies an experimental TIE Advanced/x1, equipped with a hyperdrive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, and in the canon Vader flies an experimental TIE Advanced/x1, equipped with a hyperdrive. I think this will be the case as well, but they could just have Vader arrive at Tech level 4 and have him float around in space like the emporer. EDIT: I just realised how silly that sounds.
