Space maps rock when you get a large group on.

actually, you just need to do a mapvote, viola - ground map again... and ofc you need to tell your teammates and enemies not to leave just when there is a mapchange since you can always vote!

Space battles are kind of rubbish at the moment with so little active players. Once the servers fill up, it'll be great.

At the moment you tend to get stuck into 1v1 dog fights which usually always entail flying around and around in circles until one person gets bored and lets the other person shoot them down.

But yeah once theres more players, we can squad up and cover each others backs

So we were fighting for Mos Espa, and the Imperials were in the lead by 50 tickets. They suddenly managed to push the Rebels all the way back to the City House by blitzing the Slave Quarters and the Palace Ruins, but we managed to fight our way back to the Ruins and a stalemate ensued, lasting for what seemed like an eternity, with the Imperials maintaining a lead of 50 tickets or so, until our squad leader sneaked back to the Slave Quarters and set up a spawn beacon so we could retake it rather easily. We then retook the Junkyard before the Imperials could react to our sudden advance, and we then held both the Junkyard and Slave Quarters until the Imperials ran out of tickets. I believe we had something like 79 tickets left at that time. The round ended with me sitting at the southern city edge, pelting the Imperials in the hills with a Combat Speeder's laser cannon. Me and a squadmate next to me with a MK1 repeating blaster managed to take down an AT-ST and I think three or four stormtroopers before the round was suddenly over. At which point I was like, 'wtf, we still have more than half a hundred tickets, don't we?' And then, 'Oh my hamsters, we won?!'.

In short, it was the best comeback I've ever experienced .
