[Robert Walper] I'm taking off.

I'm permanently leaving SDN everyone. I've enjoyed all of your company (believe it or not, even most of those who didn't like me). I'll probably poke in here and there to see what going on for the purely public access areas of SDN, but my account is being banned at my request. Continue to enjoy the ...

That includes force storms :roll:
Since Palpatine's Force storms can tear apart fleets of Wars ships, I fail to see how this scenario is winnable under any circumstances for the GCSs.

I second that notion. I spent hours reading the entire thing, grateful the next chapter was on the next page for so long. Now I'm stuck waiting and being tormented like the rest of you. :cry:

It depends heavilyu upon what Palpatine's upper limit abilities are. The ones demostrated in ROTS, or the EU.

Well, I hope that goes smoothly for you. I can only imagine your frusteration at not seeing your wife for that long. I'd be getting just tad peeved myself.

I suspect the thread title would be more accurately labelled "Want to breathe like a fish?" For obvious reasons the title had me thinking of slapping on some type of technological mermaid outfit... Anyhow, on topic, yes very cool concept. I wonder if the system could incorperate a way for ...

On a slight side issue: Correct me if I'm wrong, but planetary bodies rotating does affect how objects on said body would perceive gravity? In other words, the faster a planetary body rotates, the more this will counter gravitation effects?

Hate to have to tell you all this, but the chances of us reverse-engineering anything from an FTL civilisation and particularly one with a very alien mindset to our own are about as close to zero as makes no odds.

The director who did Nemesis said he was going to go back to roots and do what TWOK did. He fucked up. What TWOK did was look at TOS history and find a worthy villian for a motion picture presence. What the director of Nemesis did was try and copy the plot elements of TWOK while making it look like...

It's funny though, the average viewer is just going to assume it's the DS. I haven't figured out what proves the DS in the ROTS scene is different from the one in ANH. The outer shell isn't complete yet, therefore there's plenty of room for slight alterations (if any required). A slight alteration ...

Lack of evidence is not evidence of lack. The construction of another DS is of very little relavance to ESB thus it didn't have to be encluded. So are you going to counter or go "Well I have nothing but that doesn't mean I'm wrong!" The latter, duh. Your position is that the DSII had to b...
