Those were skeleton crew... most ships were converted to cargo ships with no internal defenses except a few troopers. If they had been fully crewed, they wouldn't have gotten far.

Is it possible to hijack a ship during a battle?
if yes they could do that. or if no then they could have bribe special ability.

It is, according to Z3r0x... He told me how once... But you don't keep the ship after the battle, and I doubt a small group people could effectively capture any ship worth capturing.

it would be better to code them in to be like the buzz droids, deployed from shuttles or something and with a much longer loiter time. maybe have them armed with light blasters and concussion missiles?

That could work, but they wouldn't technically be armed with anything.

i think this would be possible for FOC but would it be possible for space troopers be able to come out of ships and start repairing them

Not possible. The closest thing to that would be making them a deployed unit that heals ships, but we won't be doing that... If you want a ship healed, you need to do it at your dry dock.

That sucks. Mines close to the general crashing age... 2-5 years... Thats why I keep the mod on a flash drive. My last one lasted 8 years, and AFAIK it still hasn't crashed on the people that are using it now, 10 years later...

The wrist blades thing is a no-go. We tried a bunch of stuff, but it won't work properly. Either way, do you really want to have to run up to a squad, target one guy, kill one guy, run back, and shoot? It's fine for an FPS, but this is an RTS.

It's got about half the weapon load of an Impstar, intediction spheres, a hangar, engines and a shield generator. It's very useful as a system defense fleet flagship for when you need your Impstars in assault fleets.

The Interdictor in EAW is the Immobilizer 418, which will stay as is, minus the name change. Our Interdictor-class Star Destroyer is the kind that Dominator was.

It can, we can't. The Executor has 84 weapon hardpoints with dual firing bones, Viscount will be about the same number, Eclipse will probably be around 70. No idea about any others yet.

Amazing. The only topic where it would really be on topic to discuss the Iraq War and people start talking about iPods.

I finished the novel we were supposed to be spending a month on in a day last year. The problem is when people in the class can't pronounce words bigger than bigger.

After getting bored with my teacher spending an hour to teach us one thing, I decided I'd read my textbook in history. I'm having more fun this way.

Although I do agree with you on that it might just annoy tourists (hehehe), I dont know what info they want. I watch the news every night and I havent heard about it! I live here! Congress informs the Finnish before us! (No offense to you)

It DOES just annoy tourists. At least on the Canadian border. People in my city like to go accross the border to buy clothes and stuff because it's cheaper for the good brands over there, especially when the exhange rate has the Canadian dollar higher.
