Topic: Another map idea

Never sure wether these should go in custom maps or here since I know nothing about making a map!

Anyway, it might have been suggested before, but would it be possible to have the battle of Endor? We could have static caps like the SD in Escape from Hoth, with everyone spawning in hangars, but you could also (if possible) have people manning the cap turrets. Be awesome to have an SD and a Mon Cal firing Salvos at each other even if it doesnt cause any damage!

Re: Another map idea

This probably will be included, just not for a while yet.

Re: Another map idea

Cool! Love whats happening with the mod. Each release seems to be something better and the patch came it really quick. Defnintely a lot more going on with this mod than some others I have followed.

Re: Another map idea

I would love a Battle of Endor myself, though I'm not sure how it'd be implemented.

Re: Another map idea

maybe it should be centred around the executer. perhaps the rebels have to destroy parts of the ship finishing with the shields and control deck,

Re: Another map idea

How about splitting it in several parts:

• Dogfight among lots of Alliance cruisers (early stage of battle).
• Fleet Battle ('engage Star Destroyers at point blank range').
• Destruction of Executor, with Rebels trying to take out vital hardpoints.
• Destruction of Death Star itself (with parts of the Death Star's surface and an intricate tunnel system. Probably either impossible, not good gameplay-wise, or both, though sad ).

These could easily become very reminiscent of other maps, though, gotta watch out for that.

Re: Another map idea

The way I see it realistically happening is just like the OP said.

Static Mon Cals and Star Destroyers, shooting at each other Mannable turrets on them for anti fighter service. Then samller ships can weave in between them in their own battles, with Fighters and Bombers to tie it all in, and a huge Deathstar in the skybox.
