Guest jigga Posted August 27, 2001 Share Posted August 27, 2001 Will There be alot of special skills(laying mines, cloaking,freezing units,things like that) for units or will a small number of units get those while the majority have there basic attack?

Mitth'raw'nuruodo Posted August 27, 2001 Share Posted August 27, 2001 Trees along with rocks fall into the category of "carbon" which IS a resource in the game. The you will infact be able to harvest trees. AT-ATs will be able to destroy trees, but that's all I know about that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Palpatine Posted August 27, 2001 Share Posted August 27, 2001 According to what I understood, though each civ has units different from another civ, they are somewhat similar. If this is true, what is the equivalent of an ATAT in the Trade Federation, Royal Naboo, Gungans, Wookies, and of course, the famous Rebellion? :c3po: :c3po: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Kavam1 Posted August 28, 2001 Share Posted August 28, 2001 Thanks Mr Gaber for being here to clarify a lot of our questions. I was wondering I have never played AOE and will there be a Physics Engine for SWBG? Will the Air work like in TA or GC (i.e. will they fly around or use there “repulsorlift engines” to hover)? Can units go under a ATAT and if they can when ATAT’s die will they kill what ever is under them and will they have splash damage? Will energy weapons (lasers and or blaster) be predominant or kinetic weapons (grenades, missiles, bombs, etc)? What is Nova used for and how would it be collected? Can Tech or Units be stolen/captured? Will any 3rd party tools be officially released like a data file extractor/compiler? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest God Posted August 28, 2001 Share Posted August 28, 2001 yes, poor gaber. what are the levels of aircraft as in the y-wing bomber, the x-wing fighter, the transport? what does the a-wing do? will it be avalible for standerd gameplay? will there be "real world" maps like in AoK?

Guest crazy_dog Posted August 28, 2001 Share Posted August 28, 2001 Is the Star Wars universe real? Nope. Is the Age of Empires/Kings real? Kind of. So, no, you won't have any real world maps, although you will almost definetely get parts of maps based on that bit of the planet in the movies like in the Tatooine missions on Force Commander.

Guest crazy_dog Posted August 28, 2001 Share Posted August 28, 2001 By the way, units can be "captured" by Jedi, and Nova is like AoE/AoK's Gold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest jigga Posted August 29, 2001 Share Posted August 29, 2001 Are bounty Hunters able to take out numerous jedi, say one bounty hunter(using there special abilities) able to take out 2 to 3 jedi or maybe just freeze them for a while something like that? I think it would be cool if one bounty hunter were able to immobilize numerous jedi (2 to 3) not kill them, just slow them down till other troops come, I think an ability similar to the protoss ship in starcraft that freezes numerous units in a area, would be a good skill for bounty hunters it could be like that rope boba fett uses.

Guest dvader07 Posted August 29, 2001 Share Posted August 29, 2001 Crazy Dog, I am curious to know why you think you are suddenly qualified to answer all the questions people are posting for Mr. Gaber. You don't know the answers any more than the rest of us do. You may be able to guess at the answers, but that is it. People post their questions here so that they can get difinitive answers from Mr. Gaber or another member of the LA staff. I don't think they want the musings of just another fan.

Guest Admiral Odin Posted August 31, 2001 Share Posted August 31, 2001 I finally have more questions. With the Jedi and Sith, how will you distinguish who's side they are on? How long have you been working on Galatic Battlegrounds before Lucasarts went public with the game? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jedi3112 Posted August 31, 2001 Share Posted August 31, 2001 Originally posted by jigga OH one more thing, can jedi detect other cloaked jedi? I hope they can and I also want to know if some aircrafts can detect a cloaked jedi that would make those aircrafts extremely usefull since jedi can't bounce back any lasers so that would mean that once an aircraft detects a jedi the jedi can't do anything back unless the can convert aircrafts but I don't think jedi can do that sort of stuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth_Rommel Posted August 31, 2001 Share Posted August 31, 2001 Probe Droids, Scouts, Bounty Hunters, Other Jedi... I think all those thing can detect cloaked units... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

darthfergie Posted September 1, 2001 Share Posted September 1, 2001 Mr. Gaber is this possible for the new game or even the X-Pac??? If so PLEASE ADD IT!!!! It would be worth a a ton of SW fans. http://forums.galacticbattles.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=604 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Thrawn Posted September 2, 2001 Share Posted September 2, 2001 Originally posted by darthfergie Sorry I must ask this... Are there plans for a game like Star Trek Armada any time in the future. I would love an SW game like that. You would be able to see all the ships in great detail and feel like an admiral. The only other game that did this was Rebellion and it did an okay job of it, but it could easily have been better. If you made a game like ST Armada it would deffinatly fullfill my ship commanding dreams. I don't want to be in personal command of an X-wing when I could be in command of a fleet of Mon Cal Cruisers or SSDs. PLEASE MAKE THIS GAME!!!!! :angel: If you made this game, I would definately buy it!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
