i was about to say when i saw this, great, he did it again.

now, if you hasd includexd stuff like the Corellian Battlecruiser, Strident Star Defender, Corellian Heavy frigate, Maybe the Mandator II, then you would have more powerful ships. but then, you might as well just add the galactic republic with your list

I will get Iblis into Fall of the Republic Force help me.

Eh. Maybe I'll set up some weird informal thing and see how long it lasts. Can't possible be worse then some Star Wars Fanon articles.

New Star Wars rating scales: Number of Grand Admirals (13), Palpatine Clones (dunno), Executors (too many), Daala's Incompetence (WAY TOO BIG), ICW Thrawn Heroes (4, counting Tierce), amount of sand on Tattoine (infinite), missed stormtrooper shots (infinite * year - 30 from Thrawn books).

Death Stars and super ships of various types being buildable by both sides at the same time.

Examples, Mandator Class, Malovelence and the forward firing Malovelnce that ran on force crystals, Preators (they count as supers to me), that Bulwark ship or something from Rebellion.

The 501st Legion being a continually rebuildable unit or such, but with a minor hero (the unnamed Battlefront 2 Clone). If this is added and the Republic builds the Death Star stationing the 501st Minor Hero + Anakin + Palpatine all gives the Death Star buffs.

Kenobi can board the Death Star of the CIS with an army of clones and can take it over. Palpatine can steal his own Death Star for the CIS. BALANCE!

501st units have 100% damage bonus against any Force-Sensative.

On a scale of 1 to Daal's incompetence how bad would a Star Wars RP thread get here?

And as a tangent related to the current topic of conversation who else would want to be immortal to see how cringey Star Wars RPing will get?

If the Hapens get wiped out in the first ten minutes of the game they can return as the VONG.

Obviously balanced.

I planned on it to be playable through summoning the badassery of Garm Bel Iblis. As a side note this is a sequel to the joke ICW Garm Bel Iblis minor faction which was equally crippled and "why would you even bother playing this" tier.

Secondly you know what would be better then this? Aliens. All I'm going to say.

Nah, the Ssi-Ruuvi will get a full faction status. I will see it done by myself if need be.

I hope more of the cartoon will be used rather than less as it is the most comprehensive source we have on the Clone Wars; in addition Tarkin, at least, had no media portrayal in the clone wars outside of the cartoon (I suppose the Zomana Sekot Novel may fall in the timeline of the mod, as he appeared in that).
Frankly the only two areas I can think of where the cartoon contradicts with legends lore is all the weird clone wars stuff in the Thrawn Trilogy (The movies contradicted with this anyway) and the Dathomir Stuff which does contradict in a rather large manner.
The older cartoon (The 2d one) is useless I think as a source as it really only portrayed already known characters and minor battles. The only good part about, in my opinion, it was that it showed Palpatine being kidnapped.

Well there's two things there. For one the single biggest contradiction the Clone Wars CGI had was turning the Mandalorians into PACIFISTS, making Phase 2 Clone Armor worse instead of better, and the fact that Luke found Maul's brain in a jar after his defeat on Theed, instead of you know, being an anti-Obiwan cyborg. And making ARC Troopers into non-genetically enhanced clones.

I like the MC90 the most but every MC ship is partial to me. Why I use the MC40a in terms of apperance. That and it makes a good shield stripper. I hate YZVaW MC models however. Too dark and grimy. Though they are renders and not the ingame stiff so...

I would be up for that. I may be a little rusty because I have been testing a lot but I need to get some PVP practice in.

Honestly before I even start PvP I want to watch someone else play and see how they work. Especially if they're NR.

I would love to play Ascendancy with someone too, but I'm still new to the game, and haven't really played a lot of it, and haven't played basic Sins at all. I would rather batter AI alongside someone, though, cause I would fail miserably in PvP, that's for sure. So I guess I'm a similar type of Ascendancy player to you, GreyStar  I don't play as the NR though. And I don't have steam, but I can do Tunngle or any similar program, works just as well.

Well minus the lack of NR playing we're in the exact same boat. Never bothered with Base Sins I got this game for Ascendancy.

My Computer is older so it might lag sometimes and also I only have one or two of the DLC's

Same. Though doesn't match making exist through stardock?

Was she a good character at all? Did the story benefit from her presence, or just detract?

Well an hour after posting this and I finally realize this is the FotR subforum and not ICW. Oh well this was written as my ICW wishlist and I've bolded the ones I wouldn't mind in FotR. I totally want all of these in ICW anyway.

• The diplomacy addition that was in the works.
• The ability to modify what carriers carry (modifying unit production to increase / decrease the price of any starfighter carrying ships.)
• Ability to switch between regular TIE Interceptors and slower but shielded TIE Interceptors when Era 2 hits.
• New Republic fighters being upgraded every era.
• Clone Jedi / Dark Jedi on Wayland and Byss and Coruscant.
• During Era 2 ability to create clone Sith-Jedi AKA "Crosscurrents" in cloning centers.
• Cloning Tanks on Coruscant and Byss.
• The ability to blow up cloning centers.
• The ability to make it so Palpatine continually resurrects until Byss is taken.
• The ability to build Death Stars.
• Hero cloning.
• Ability to use galactic conquests which do not have ground combat.

Sorry but Praetor is Legends while Resurgent is OFFICIAL, "real" canon. I mean wow such "strong" logic you have there. 

Skip to 3:53 since the forum won't let me un link the video.
Replace feelings with canon.

It's possible the Viscount could put all power into shielding to tank the blast, after all it is pretty massive. Afterwords as long as the superior fighters can take care of the Eciplise's TIE Droids, they could disable the super laser. After all, E-Wings and K-Wings have heavy proton torpedoes.
