Yes!! The best Trek ship design

Imitating the pyramids and getting the proportions wrong 🫣

You and I play the game very differently haha. I like to win with diplomacy and fast forward tedious fleet battles In my current Rebel game, I actually got Coruscant to neutrality so that Leia could triumphantly diplomacy her way to retaking the capital
comment in response to post
….how do your campaigns last long enough to get battles that big?

I think the writers sourced a lot of this stuff from the Murdochs and other similar families. Some episodes feel way too real in that respect but in a good (albeit horrifying) way. The after-episode writer’s commentaries are very insightful btw.

They are horrible, terrible, broken people and once I understood that, the show clicked. It’s scary thinking ā€œoh no, there are actual people just like thisā€

We need Kleya (antiquities curator) and Kleya (investiture gala) and Kleya (hospital disguise) and Kleya (escape) Look if we can get 59 stormtrooper variants it’s only fair

I think the show took the time it needed to develop the Ghor culture and to give the 2nd massacre the gravity it deserved, but I fell in love with their vision of Ghor society so I wouldn’t say no to seeing even more of it pre-massacre. I don’t think I need any more of the violence.

github.com/MetasharpNet... The overhaul is included with this toolset — the GitHub page has install instructions.
comment in response to post
Always have been! It’s been highly moddable almost since release. There are mods to add/change characters and ships and there’s a really thorough 25th anniversary overhaul mod

Hyperspace!!! Brings back memories — I couldn’t join it until later and was very spoiler phobic for ROTS. Looks like I missed out on a good time.

ā€œBorsk when the dance music comes on that means you STOP networking. Actually, just stop in general.ā€

It is hilarious I could only find a screenshot of her in that outfit with that expression. She just looks so exasperated.
comment in response to post
She probably said ā€œhere Mon, now he’s your problem.ā€
comment in response to post
The game randomizes which Outer Rim the Alliance HQ is located at, and I usually have Mothma recruiting new ppl wherever that is. I don’t know how Maz feels about having the big target secret rebel base in her backyard.

I’d send him on a one-man recon mission to Coruscant if I hadn’t already blitzed it dangerously early šŸ˜‚
comment in response to post
Same. And it’s weird how easy it is to slide right back into the game like I never left
comment in response to post
I just need more Perrin everything tbh
comment in response to post
Perrin never knew what he was missing without the rhydo
comment in response to post
it is extremely easy to mod, thankfully! it was the first game I ever modded, like a quarter century ago haha. Getting the tools to play nice on modern computers is the main trick
comment in response to post
Leida never listens to Mothma, I don't know what she expected
comment in response to post
Mon Mothma's already in the game, but I thought I'd update her art to use O'Reilly's #Andor portrayal since the game takes place right after Yavin. I really like the way they mixed her classic ROTJ/R1 regal robes look with a splash of earth tones from her Yavin casual appearance.
comment in response to post
That's actually my theory for how the ISB never found it despite everyone openly blabbing Yavin all over Coruscant. ISB is like "Yavin? The place where all those Maya Pei clowns are fighting each other? must be a decoy!"
comment in response to post
to be fair, she does wander around a bit on Yavin before Vel is like "what are you doing, it's raining!"
comment in response to post
hahahahah alas, no, just Zsinj's old sector. A bit early for Yrica!

Nonsense, I was told Vesty Week is the height of the social season!

Jebbel is probably not very fun at parties

The guy in rogue one is Meelshi, his clone.
comment in response to post
Honestly, it’s amazing Jyn even had to steal the plans. She should’ve just posted on the War Thunder forums disparaging the project and Krennic would have accidentally leaked the plans himself.
comment in response to post
Is it bad/out of character that I actually like Rebel fatigues Mothma? I’m just really glad they didn’t have her wearing the same ROTJ outfit going forward from Yavin
comment in response to post
Stained glass tho šŸ‘€
comment in response to post
Perhaps dream you was on Ghorman in hopes of acquiring a nice hat!
comment in response to post
Did you have a nice hat on???
comment in response to post
Yeah, she seemed to be having a little fatalistically
comment in response to post
Hm. That was Rising Storm right? I think I mostly just remember being worried they’d kill her off and relieved they did not. And then I had the same concern with Greylark in Cataclysm.
comment in response to post
Both. Was this in phase one? I remember she was injured in an attack.
comment in response to post
What? Does she hop on one transparisteel leg????
comment in response to post
Hmmm. I can do it myself, then. I was actually considering adding Kleya etc. to Rebellion after watching the finale. Would be pretty trivial to mod! I’ll look into it when I’m back home from traveling.
comment in response to post
She kept saying how she wanted to be out there doing things and… …we never saw her get to do that :(
comment in response to post
I remember being so excited you were doing an imperial costume. If only we knew what the future held šŸ˜‚
comment in response to post
Ah, rebellion modding has come some way. I’ve long had an Atlas-accurate map but it’s nice to see people taking on ships too. Are they doing characters? Character modding was huge 25 years ago
comment in response to post
The whole season of her being a housewife felt like an unfortunate choice.
comment in response to post
It’s that moist charisma
comment in response to post
Whoa, a chir’daki!
comment in response to post
The Empire’s impatience for the DS caused it to be sloppier and more brutal too.
comment in response to post
I am forever grateful they didn’t just have Mothma wearing the same outfit for years and years — not just the fancy stuff but even at Yavin! Letting her have a bit of beige was nice actually.
