Visvia
« on: June 11, 2008, 03:41:21 PM »
I don't know if it is idiotic notice so if yes pls don't throw big stones.

For Chiss (and maybe for EotH) in unit description if there will be some measurement unit is it possible to use visvias?

Visvia - Unit of measurement (Visvia:kilometer ratio around 5:8 )

its a good idea, but assuming the rebels or empire are looking at the description itll be from their databases and measured in their units, i like it though

While it may not make it into the game, maybe you could persuade Arb to use it for his unit stats page? :P

Got any whips or any other torturing stuff? :laugh:


OK stop kidding.. Seriously, i was thinking to put it just in some description where it would be cool. For example Chiss's long range artillery can have a notice in description that it can fire XX visvias far or something like this.

Anyway the idea about stat page isn't bad.

It isn't really a bad idea, but the problem is that an Imperial Star Destroyer is exactly one visvia and no Chiss ships will be that length or longer, so it'd all have to be in decimal or fraction form which would look odd.

Well how i said use it only some proper situations: expressing the range of artillery or desribing ship taking half of visvia etc.

Anyway im glad you (and i mean you all) like it :police:
