Sup everyone

. I just wanted to ask the TR Community What their favorite/least favorite heroes. I am mostly doing this to benefit my maps, but I hope others can benefit from this as well.

Favorite: Gregor Raquoran. Because he makes it so I can build things as my beloved PA early in the game when I have no moneys.

Least Favorite: Any NR jedi. They move like cracked up squirrels that they run in and destroy half your units before you even see them they're so freaking fast. And take forever to kill.

Favourite: Palpatine - Dat superlaser

Least Favourite: Erisi Dilarit/Turr Phennir/Maarek Steele/Rogue Squadron - WHY DO YOU KEEP DYING!?

Fav is Jerec, because when he warps in with the fleet he is a free SSD in population, not counting in the initial deployment (is that intentional?) It means that you can't autoresolve though.

Least favorite is Covell. He doesn't carry troops, and dies faster when you use his ability.

Hm, tough call.
I guess I'll have to go with either Jerec or Cronus.

Baron Soontir Fel

Who needs capital ships? I've got enough pointy starfighters for everyone!

Plus he's one of the cooler characters of the era. I only wish he was available for the Imperial 181st, but Isard DID hate him...

Have to say honorable mention goes to Warlord Zsinj. Always liked him for some reason.

I don't really like the fighter squads either, they die too easy, even if the individual hero himself doesn't die,(I'm guessing) if half the squadron is killed, he dies. Kind of like Luke in EaW. If Luke lives but the rest of the squad dies, Luke dies

.

I'm also kind of surprised that no one has mentioned Pelleaon! I'm not a huge Pelleaon fan, but I thought he was popular.

My favorite heroes though are Luke, Palpatine, and Joruus, mainly cause Luke and Palpatine are my two favorite movie characters and Joruus because his voice acting is just so amazing

I like Pellaeon but in game he is just too fragile like Thrawn is. It seems the ISD heroes are just weaker than normal ones

Yup. I'd say he's weaker than Thrawn.

If we were to do favorites in the SW Universe instead of ingame, my choices would be completely different. But in game, many of my favorite individuals aren't really all that powerful.

Yes,though luckily a fair amount of my fan favs are hard hitters(Kaine, Jerec, Zsinj, Delvardus)

favourites:
-Issard from from the empire
You can kick everything in your way in early game with her. With a suitabble task force you can destroy the EOTH in the 1st era(from planet to planet)...
-Jerec and Ardus from the Pentastar Alignment
Same reason
-Uwlla Iillor from the New republic
She has the ability to stop the retreating enemy wich is special in the NR(i have to admit i doeson't realy played much with NR)
-Hand of Judgement from the Empire of the Hand
They are very efective, and it's fun to play with them.
least favorites:
-Maximilian Veers from the empire
Easy to get him killed...
-Octavian Grant from PA
Useful, but he still the most useless in the PA heroes, wich comes from the small number of heroes this fraction have.
-Kyle Katarn from the NR
in ground very efective,but i hate when an enemy fleet attacks him, before i can plant him.
it's too easy to lose him in space
-Soontir Fel from the EotH
Easy to get him overwhelmed by enemies

I had a lot of fun doing his VO, glad you enjoyed it.

Of course, we all like a SSD, I mean who could reject one? . It was you the one who voiced Joruus? I imagine you had to edit a lot that VO right?

Indeed, SSDs are quite lovely ships.

Yes I did Joruus, Jerec, Kaine, Delvardus, Parrk, Harrsk, Krennal, Thrawn, Phennir, Teradoc, Praetor, Imp Escort Carrier, Hailfire, Muunificent, Brakiss, Vermel, Zsinj, Melvar and Palpatine. There were a few others that didn't make it to the final draft but I'm pretty happy with the ones that did and it was a ton of fun.
Joruus actually was pretty low on editing, just added a Cathedral sound effect(for the echo) since that was described in the books to my impression of a VERY arrogant old guy lol.

Teradoc and Harrsk though, I did edit a lot to make them each sound different(though harrsk was originally supposed to have a high voice since he was little in the book) Teradoc's voice was inspired by TeamFourStar's Guru VO and I was in a joking mood since I'm very skinny and he's very fat lol.

Oh wow, that's quite a lot of VOs

I'd volunteer, but I doubt my mic or software are up to the task. I could give it a shot if there are VOs still required, though.

kucsidave · « **Reply #17 on:** August 18, 2013, 06:47:22 AM »

you can count on me too.
and what i said is true.
i had a game where with the Lusankya and her task force i cleared the whole galaxy from everithing else...
the whole galaxy was mine except Byss...
that was the game what can't be finished....

Wouw, amazing, I always tought that at least 5-6 different people did those VO. By the way I love the VO for the scort carrier, the preator and Delvardus

Thanks, I really enjoyed those. I wanted to make them sound very menacing and I actually liked Delvardus a bit since when faced with certain death he didn't grovel or try and escape he tried to murder his killers lol, I can respect that.
