kamiclone Posted September 2, 2002 Share Posted September 2, 2002 I really want to know! Ep1's space battle was ok i guess, they didnt really focus on it that much. They focused more on Theed and the Gungan/Droid battle. Ep2 didnt even have one. Jango and Obi doesnt count. So.....is Ep3 going to have a space battle?

obi Posted September 2, 2002 Share Posted September 2, 2002 I think it will be interesting to see the Galactic "Republic" introduce the tie fighters. And also Introduce their brand new Star Destroyers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gorganfloss Posted September 2, 2002 Share Posted September 2, 2002 Dont they already have star destroyers cause in the end of Ep.2 you can see star-destroyer-ish ships... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kstar__2 Posted September 2, 2002 Share Posted September 2, 2002 dont make a new tread! post in the ep3 social thread! yeah, a big space battle would be really cool, stardestroyers everywhere, along with jedi starfighters, and suddenly, the stardestroyers start shooting at the jedi starfighters Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord_FinnSon Posted September 2, 2002 Share Posted September 2, 2002 Dont they already have star destroyers cause in the end of Ep.2 you can see star-destroyer- ish ships... The ships you saw were Republic assault ships; you could say that they were predecessors of Star Destroyer. Here's what I found from official site: So effective and impressive were the Acclamator designs that many leading shipbuilders looked on with envy, and began incorporating similar concepts into their own fleets. Rendili Stardrive followed a few short years later with the development of their historic Victory-class Star Destroyers. So, knowing the fact that Episode III happens 2-3 years after AOTC, it's possible that we'll see a Star Destroyer or two. Here's a little comparison: Republic assault ship Imperial Star Destroyer Also, remembering that Obi-Wan recognized Tie fighter as a short range fighter in ANH(after hiding so many years), I have a feeling that we see Tie fighter squadrons and that again means space battles. Perhaps they are too effective againts Confederacy of Independent Systems/early rebel forces because they are fast and agile(I seem to remember from somewhere that X-Wing starfighters were introduced only shortly before events of ANH), so Galactic Republic/Empire probably beats everything that goes againts it at the time.

Darth Groovy Posted September 2, 2002 Share Posted September 2, 2002 As far as the pics are concerned Goerge did tell the Star Wars Insider(official fan magazine) That he wanted to have subtle similarities with between the next two films and the original trilogy. I would say the clonetroopers and the carrier ships have demonstrated that all too well. Also I think that episode three will have a climatic space battle. In many of the episodes created so far GL has had a three scene dilema. He shows three scenes at once. Usually a space battle, a ground battle, and a lightsaber battle. He does not do this on all episodes. Empire and AOTC lacked this. I think he will return to tha formula for Episode 3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Psionic Jedi Posted September 2, 2002 Share Posted September 2, 2002 No der did you not see those l33t wannabe star destroyers taking off at the end of EP3? Would be a shame if they didn't see action! Btw nice pics!!! On TPM Dvd they had a showcase trailer of Jedi Starfighter; they said they wanted to show you the "transition" from Republic ships into the Empire ships, but I really think the Jedi Starfighter looks like an AWing...

JandoFett1842 Posted September 2, 2002 Share Posted September 2, 2002 Originally posted by Psionic Jedi I really think the Jedi Starfighter looks like an AWing... No, it is a minture star destroyer. (see picture below) Anyways, getting to the point, ANH had a space battle, ESB did not, ROTJ did. Lucas could be foloing a space battle, land battle, space battle type thing, it would be cool to see some Victory Star Desteroyers fighteing a combination of Mon Mothma and Garm Bel Ipris forces in space around corescant, The imps would be driving them off.
