Discussion, Suggestions & Feedback / Re: Garrison/defensive structures
« on: January 24, 2018, 03:50:56 AM »
I could see a fortification building which would add faction specific turret build pads and perhaps an infantry bunker or two around the entrances of the defender's base, similar to how some of the vanilla multiplayer maps have by default. I say faction specific as only the faction that built owns the planet can build turrets on the build pad.

I can unfortunately see two main problems with this idea however, the first is the issue of balancing such a building, making it so that their are enough faction specific bunkers and build pads added in the right areas to make it worthwhile building such a structure instead of just constructing another barracks and relying on the limited garrison force that building would supply. The second problem is also the question of whether adding such a building would be worth the time and effort that could be better spent elsewhere.

other fortification building ideas like variations of the turbo-laser building to deal with differing threats or the addition of a wall or gate at the entrance of a base would have to be researched to find possible examples of such buildings in the star wars legend canon.

Discussion, Suggestions & Feedback / Re: Tractor Beams

while a lot of ships were equipped with tractor beams there is a variance in power of said tractor beams(imperial star destroyers and executor class star destroyers were equipped with militarily grade Q7 tractor beam projector which were designed to work offensively, rather then just to help guide friendly ships into port), as well as the number of tractor beams the ship is equipped with. you also have to take into account that the beams pulled not only the ship the projector was grasping but also the ship the projector was attached to, trying to pull a dreadnought heavy cruiser or an imperial star destroyer with a tractor beam mounted on a Nebulon-b frigate would likely lead to the Nebulon-b frigate being pulled instead. while a nebula class star destroyer would be better it is still only a third of the size of an imperial class star destroyer and I don't believe it is fitted with milatary grade tractor projectors(or at least ones which equal a Q7 tractor beam projector.
