Title: Winter?
Post by: Slornie on April 11, 2008, 03:30:12 PM
How about Winter (http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Winter_Celchu) as a hero for the Rebel Alliance/New Republic (R1 and/or R2)?  Didnt she play a key role in intelligence and procurement during the GCW.

I think Winter would be great addition to rebel list of heroes. She could act a bit like probot that reveals what enemy has on planet but she wouldn't be one time use only. and she could fight also.

I was just thinking.  I dont know it would be possible, but how about something like R2D2/C3PO's Hack ability (or Tyber/Urai's black market ability)?  Instead of researching an item or buying an upgrade, allow her to "buy" a unit from an enemy planet (with the unit appearing wherever Mon Mothma is) representing her work for Alliance Procurement.  Obviously it would have to be limited to the smaller units.

i think the team should more focus on finishing rather than adding stuff

why just small units? big ones too but make them costly. It could be great as in the game it's impossible to salvage enemy ships. and we have to remember that some imperials defected to rebels. so rebels buying imperial units sounds good idea.

i think that corvettes and frigates should be available, and then,  select few big ships. let's say for example, the rebels can get a victory II for much more than the standard price, or perhaps old ships ike Victory Is or venators.

Yeah; nothing newer like a ISD.

i think the rebellion should be able to steal ships from the empire and be able to use them once stolen
Title: Re: Winter?

old ships. for example, victory I, venator, and some fighters and bombers like ARC-170s and V-wings.

that would be nice but I'm not sure it can be done.

you mean in-battle or like how when the ZC use piracy, they gain a new ship?
Title: Re: Winter?
Post by: Isamu on April 15, 2008, 06:22:05 PM
no like some sort of hijacking or boarding party
Title: Re: Winter?
Post by: Slornie on April 15, 2008, 06:55:10 PM
Something like that was originally planned for EAW or FoC (i dont remember which), but was dropped due to time constraints.

i thought they meant a piracy like thing, but a boarding party would be cool too.

This seems to no longer have anything to do with Winter, so back on topic...

Winter would be an interesting addition.  I'd make her a stealth unit on the GC map with the ability to show what all a planet holds if she is in orbit.  As far as ground combat, I'd say to give her the cloak ability and the ability to drop thermal detonators.  Then again the smuggling ability would suit her well I suppose; considering how she had a bad habit of scoping Imperial storehouses and the like so that Rebels could launch a successful raid.
