  1. Governor's Gambit - Star Wars SI into Imperial Governor

    Honestly, introducing greater usage of missile and recoilless weaponry would be an interesting addition. I'm a sucker for space battles with REAL long range options instead of cosmic knife fights. A salvo of ion torpedoes would basically shut even a larger ship down completely. Although I'll...

  2. Governor's Gambit - Star Wars SI into Imperial Governor

    Gotta admit, I agree. There really should be a lot more long range options in ship battles, but the closest we tend to get are essentially sniper ships meant for bringing down shield systems scaled up to cities or planets. Although the Broadside ship could be used for it it the massive...

    re's The smaller scale prototypes are probably funded by the Moffs to start with. It's when they make a feasible and effective end product that Palpy takes an interest and and the Imperial Government takes over production on a larger scale.

  4. Governor's Gambit - Star Wars SI into Imperial Governor

    I'm sorry, did that guy on the Myto char just say they found a huge COAXIUM vein!? That's the equivalent to finding a multi mile vein of the purest and most valuable rare earth metals to us, what a find. That's the kind of stuff used for the creation of hyperfuel and hyperdrives. It is the...

  5. Governor's Gambit - Star Wars SI into Imperial Governor

    Robert Baratheon: What's the bigger number, five or one? Cersei: Five, obviously. Robert Baratheon: (Holds up hand with fingers spread) Five. (Clenches fingers into a fist) One. Pretty sure that quote sums up the big unity advantage right there, and it's a good point to make. Many times in...

  6. Governor's Gambit - Star Wars SI into Imperial Governor

    An interesting idea. The Vulture Droid Fighter does prove it's somewhat feasible since some element of the necessary tech does indeed exist. Personally, my interest would be in making a starfighter that switches between a heavily armed dogfighter and a high speed armored vehicle like the TX -...

  7. Governor's Gambit - Star Wars SI into Imperial Governor

    .......Wait. Does that mean he's just being tsundere about respecting Las?

  8. Governor's Gambit - Star Wars SI into Imperial Governor

    It's probably supposed to be some kind of insult or a slur for non Force Sensitives. Far as I know in irl, it's also German for Man.

  9. Governor's Gambit - Star Wars SI into Imperial Governor

    I agree. The Ton-Falk is an excellent Carrier-Cruiser that could do a lot of work with a proper escort.

  10. Governor's Gambit - Star Wars SI into Imperial Governor

    Ah, someone usinv AI in an intelligent way: tbebare minimum of a skeleton that requires little creative thinking. Also, DAYUM! Myto Sector iz gonna be practically independent from external trade and economies at thjs rate. Gonna make it REALLY valuable when the Warlords pop up after Endor.

  11. Governor's Gambit - Star Wars SI into Imperial Governor

    I second the suggestion of a parachute combined with rockets. The parachute is cheap and easily made in bulk, so the logistics wouldn't be hard. Most importantly, the parachute itself doesn't actually need to STOP the drop pod, just slow its descent enough that the rockets could finish the job...

  12. Governor's Gambit - Star Wars SI into Imperial Governor

    It truly has been too long since the rubber ball made its latest appearance.

  13. Governor's Gambit - Star Wars SI into Imperial Governor

    I'm sure we would all LOVE to just out the blame on Palpatine, and he IS responsible for a lot. But saying he is somehow single-handedly responsible for ALL of the problems in the Empire is ridiculous. A lot of the Empire failing came down to the fact that guardrails against corruption and...

  14. Governor's Gambit - Star Wars SI into Imperial Governor

    Of course the Imperial snobs would have no idea what the Arbiter really represents. They're so distracted by its lack of brute force turbolasers that they completely ignore that THIS is the kind of ship that the Rebel Alliance would absolutely HATE to go up against. With a simple escort it would...

  15. Governor's Gambit - Star Wars SI into Imperial Governor

    Ah, the bane of the average Imperial bureaucrat. A taxman who truly believes in his job.
