just wanted to ask something about a feature.
« on: August 03, 2011, 04:01:52 AM »
In some other mods such as Ultimate Empire At War and FOC alliance, you can build racially specific units, for instance

Bothawui
--------------

-Bothan Assault Cruiser (I think thats the name)

Corellia
--------------
-that big shoe shaped super-destroyer
-Corellian Dreadnought
-Corellian gunship
-Corellian Frigate

I won't spout a whole list full of unique units, but I would like to know if units like these will be in the mod or are they in there already? (I'm currently doing Era 1 right now)

We don't tend to do that because we don't think it makes any sense, for example if you had it so anyone who took over Kuat could build ISDs it would be kind of weird, and we already have the non-playable factions that can and do build those kinds of ships ships, without limiting their buildability to one planet. There are a few, such as the Bothan Assault Frigate (and in the Hunt for Zsinj GC, the amalgamated forces can build Hapan units), which we do have because they were actually made and used by and for that faction, the New Republic. All of the Corellian ships in the other mods are basically non canon designs, so we don't use them, and the other common ship that mods have like that is the clawcraft, which we already have for a major faction.

Only one I can think of that does something like that is the New Republic.  When you get the hero Kardde you can then recruit Katana Dreadnaughts at planets with the subsequent requirements.  There is also Jedi being recruitable at Yavin 4.

I believe the same is also true for the Imperial Remnant, only via Niles Ferrier.

Well, like I said:

We're not the kind of mod that goes around taking other people's models and designs. There are only a few we've used from other people, and we don't want to add to that list. Especially for ships that fill absolutely no role in the mod.
