The only hard point thing that ennoyed me was the fact that you couldnt repair them, in forces of corruption u could only restore hp's but if a hard point was destroyed that was that.

I have to say I did enjoy the gameplay of Empire at War, and how you could watch the battles cinematically. I just thought some of the ship stuff was a bit wonky, such as the hard points you were able to kill.

Empire at war is very good, not the best but better than many other sw games.

It was admittedly good in places, no question about it, but I don't like their approach to vehicles. And other things.

And I think the mod would do very well to keep Empire at War out of the mod entirely and instead use EU and movie sources.

I'm all for hard points. Each sensor dome should be given a scan ability like cap ships, as mentioned. Other hard points - I'm not really sure. The reactor underneath the ship should probably be the last to destroy.

All I know is that I do not want to be an X-wing Pilot The INTs will spell murder for them unless the Y-wings have good gunners...

What would be the ratio of fighters? 2 Xwings for every 3 Ywings? 1 Squint for every 3 Eyeballs?

Also, if you could so manage it I'd suggest that the Sensor Domes be destructable so that the TIE's would loose their radar HUD... Oh man would I love to be one of the TIE's here sounds fuun

I recommend having one "elite TIE" spawn the entire round as the only addition. So, the "elite TIE squad" still appears towards the end of the battle.

You know, so we can get some more fly time on this new craft.

Sounds fun and epic. Def. a good idea.

Sound's great, but boarding should be included.

The Imperial Star Destroyer Intrepid, stranded near Circarpous IV, has been located by Rebel High Command. X-Wings from Red Squadron have been tasked with eliminating the TIE Fighter screen, with heavily-armed Y-Wings from Blue Squadron directly assaulting the Star Destroyer. The Intrepid's full compliment of TIEs has been scrambled in an attempt to destroy the incoming Alliance fightercraft. Due to armerment shortages, only the Y-Wings are carrying proton torpedos to attack the Star Destroyer. Although the Intrepid's engines are disabled, her full compliment of turbolaser batteries are still active, making this an especially dangerous engagement.

Rebel starfighters
X-Wings (no torpedos)
Y-Wings

Imperial starfighters
TIE Fighters
TIE Interceptors

Imperial capital ships
ISD Intrepid (engines disabled)

Gameplay description
The Rebel team's X-Wings will have to escort the heavily-armed Y-Wings into the battle and protect them as they destroy key hard points on the ISD. The Imperials will have their hands full trying to prevent the destruction of their ship. The ISD will have a significant compliment of turbolasers.

After a certain amount of time, an Imperial Nebulon B Frigate will "hyperspace in" (spawn), and give the Imperial team a few new TIE Fighters from an elite squadron to spawn in. These TIEs will have special wing markings and will have increased armor or damage capability to represent their elite pilots.

1 minute after the Nebulon B arrives, in the closing stage of the battle, a few Rebel A-Wings from Gold Squadron will hyperspace in to assist.
