Mon Calamari ships

[Meyer]

Are you going to give them new hardpoints as you gave to the ISDs and other imperial ships?

[Dr-Ludvig]

it would ne nice if you did like eh, some mod i cant remember the name of, where the ships have no hardpoints, just hundreds of firing bones, it looks amazing!

[insanegolfer]

Most likely in the future we will give them more hp's to counterbalance the imp ships, and in order to be more realistic we will keep the hp's destroyable for most ships, because they really would be able to be destroyed seperate of the ship.

[Meyer]

I hope you add more hardpoints to rebel ships too

[Corey]

The Rebellion was quite undergunned. The MC80s in EaW were WAY too powerful compared to the Imperial Star Destroyers. Keep in mind that until the New Republic, this was just like taking a gun, putting it onto a cruiser liner and calling it a war ship. The MC-85 is the best armed and defended ship you'll get as the Rebels, though it still takes more than one to take out an ISD, and they cost quite a bit...

I've done that before with a few ships. I didn't like it very much. Ships still have the same amount of firing bones, with or without each individual hardpoint being destructable.

In all the books, the Rebellion would almost always lose a fight with a Mon Cal Cruiser against a Imperial-Class Star Destroyer. What would give the Rebels the winning hand was that the X-Wings could deal massive damage to the cruiser without getting shot down.

[Corey]

Or they had a Katana Dreadnaught handy, with the Peremptory in range...

[Meyer]

Rebels are losers. Thrawn beats them all. But still rebels won every large battle. with the help of MCCs

[Corey]

And Imperial ego.

[Meyer]

Thrawn or Pellaeon didn't have large ego.

[Dr. Knickers]

But other Imps did

[SCPX]

Almost all the Imperials underestimated the Rebels. Thrawn I think is one of the few exceptions. He just overestimated his security...

[Meyer]

Will you put hangars in MCCs and other rebel capital ships.

[Kratas]

no they dont deserve hangers because x wings and ywings are to tough

[Meyer]

But they had hangars in real.

[Slornie]

just because the rebel fighters are more durable than the imperial fighters, it doesnt mean that none of the rebel ships should have hangers - and in any case, i was under the impression that most of the rebel ships had smaller starfighter complements than the imperial ships, if this is followed balance is still maintained

[Meyer]

ISDs has one wing of starfighters, 6 squadrons 12 fighter each.
MCs on the other hand has various numbers
MC80 (Home One-type) has 10 squadron of 12 fighters that makes the total complement 120.
MC80 (Liberty-type) has 3 squadrons that makes 36 fighters total.
MC80a Star Cruiser has one wing a total 72 fighters.
MC80B Star Cruiser had 4 squadrons at first, that's 48 fighters, later upgraded to 8 squadron so total fighter number is 96
MC90 Star Cruiser has one wing.
And that doesn't count other rebel space ships that has hangars, like Nebulon-B.

[Slornie]

ok - my mistake, the rebel ships did have comparable starfighter complements - but mainly on their large capital ships, which if memory serves correctly, they didnt have that many of...

[Meyer]

Nebulon-B frigate had 24 fighters

[Slornie]

24 TIE fighters, yes - which were stored in racks, but the Rebel Alliance used other fighters (such as X and Y wings) which werent compatible with the racks, so the actual fighter complement would be considerably lower, probably somewhere nearer 6

EDIT: and the 24 TIE fighters was only possible with extreme modification, the standard model had nowhere near that internal capacity
