YourGod Posted July 19, 2002 Posted July 19, 2002 Yo y'alls... i am the leader of the Arcosante PA ( http://www.xenotrout.com/xt/arco ), and i've been contemplating which world we should start on. On most of the sites i've seen, all of the descriptions are almost solely political, which is of little use to us. We plan to be a neutral PA, and i was hoping to establish a new town in a lush forested planet, rich w/flora & fauna, and avoid baren wastelands. Any advice is more than welcome.
setsuko Posted July 19, 2002 Posted July 19, 2002 Well, Corellia is a lush farming planet, think 'rolling hills, flowers and light colours'. Then, there's Naboo. You've propably seen it in those movies they call Star Wars. Don't know much about the moon, but it sounds like it won't be a barren wasteland. Endor, well... Endor lacks civilization and towns, and it will propably be impossible to build your own buildings there.
Koffin Posted July 19, 2002 Posted July 19, 2002 Jungle forest type environment = Naboo Woodland forest type environment= Corellia (Ep I shows sweeping grasslands as well as jungle on Naboo however I havent seen this in screen shots.) Bot both worlds will have major cities on planet so the need for space travel can be kept to a minum. Id aim for one of those two unless you really, really like ewoks.
Wraith 8 Posted July 19, 2002 Posted July 19, 2002 go for corellia...... in the movies it sais that naboo is a small back planet.. and corellia is very busy planet all the time.
YourGod Posted July 20, 2002 Author Posted July 20, 2002 thanks that's where ur PA is goin...isn't it?
Jan Gaarni Posted July 20, 2002 Posted July 20, 2002 Eventually, yes. We'll be starting on our own or in small groups when the game first comes out. Some will build up money while others will scouer the country sides on different planets in search of a good spot, locate mineral deposits, aswell as for their personal experience. We are set strongly for Corellia, but who knows, maybe we find a much better location on a different planet which is just too big to ignore. One never truly knows. But even though we start seperatly, we will always be there for eachother to call on for anything. Even after a town has been settled. That, hopefully, will never change.
Wraith 8 Posted July 22, 2002 Posted July 22, 2002 yeah.. once we all get a feeling for the game and we have some money.. we are gonna look eachother up and try to make the game extend some more
YourGod Posted July 24, 2002 Author Posted July 24, 2002 sounds interesting...it could be hard to really establish any sort of system tho - wouldn't it? i mean, y'alls could be friends, & help eachother out & whatnot, but as a PA, you would have little impact, right?
Wraith 8 Posted July 25, 2002 Posted July 25, 2002 i dont understand waht your saying? we plan to help and make money with eachother... sorta like a huge company that does everything.
D@rth M@ul Posted July 26, 2002 Posted July 26, 2002 He lost me too, I understand their pa's concept.
YourGod Posted July 29, 2002 Author Posted July 29, 2002 what type of planet will Yavin IV be? - i don't read the books & don't pay much more attention to the movies aside from plot, special effects & fite scenes
FunClown Posted July 29, 2002 Posted July 29, 2002 Yaven IV is a jungle type planet, which is a possible choice for your PA. I mentioned it because its in the game.
Wraith 8 Posted July 29, 2002 Posted July 29, 2002 yeah Yavin 4 is a jungle type planet... but if you see the screen shots it lookes all scortched earth and all. i think the imps bombed the place to the ground.
setsuko Posted July 29, 2002 Posted July 29, 2002 Yes, Yavin 4 was pretty much scorched after the first Death Star was blown to pieces over there. The Empire are many things, but not good sports.
Ewok Hunter Posted July 29, 2002 Posted July 29, 2002 wow, if they executed scorched earth policy on yavin 4 and it managed to grow back that quickly, there must have been some goo fertilizer
setsuko Posted July 30, 2002 Posted July 30, 2002 As a matter of fact, if you study biology, you are quickly taught that never are there a greater burst of growth in a forest than after a fire. As a matter of fact, it is a common habit to burn down grassland and even smaller forest areas in the springtime to make sure that growth will be good in the summer.
YourGod Posted July 30, 2002 Author Posted July 30, 2002 it's true...all the ash & dead animals & whatnot make 4 great fertilizer/food for new life... i think that, despite the ewoks, i'm gonna go for Endor. after looking at the other planets, & the descriptions for all, i think that Endor most fits my tastes
FunClown Posted July 30, 2002 Posted July 30, 2002 Quote As a matter of fact, if you study biology, you are quickly taught that never are there a greater burst of growth in a forest than after a fire. The Australian bush depends on it. The seeds won't sprout unless there is intense heat on some plants and trees mostly in the bushland. However, don't get any funny ideas about starting bush fires because you would be shot on site. Lightning takes care of that part of nature.
setsuko Posted July 31, 2002 Posted July 31, 2002 The main disadvantage with Endor is the total lack of settlements. If I don't remember totally wrong, you won't even be able to build your own houses there.
Old_Ben Posted July 31, 2002 Posted July 31, 2002 You should be able to build in the trees like the ewoks.
