Oky Posted October 27, 2009 Posted October 27, 2009 OK, thanks. Let's keep gping, shall we? Which vehicles can the Hailfire attack with its special ability? Rocket droids, Geonosians, and STAPS are the only things in the Sep army that can travel across water, right? Can you destroy your own vehicles? It is said that Assassin droids cannot be attacked by RA of units, but does that also mean that units cannot attack/destrpy a vehicle they are driving?
JimBee Posted October 27, 2009 Posted October 27, 2009 Really? It looks too big and flat to be a pistol.You know that these are the pistol, rifle and sniper, right? Hopefully in the next couple of days, yes. I thought the "rifle" served as both the pistol and the rifle. They have the same stats... I guess I'll retake again. I knew the long ones were snipers, and the short ones pistols at least.

It is said that Assassin droids cannot be attacked by RA of units, but does that also mean that units cannot attack/destrpy a vehicle they are driving? Any large Republic vehicles, ie. any that take up two spaces. These are the AT-OT, AT-TE, Juggernaut and Fighter Tank. Right. They are. No. Friendly fire between units or vehicles isn't tolerated in this game. No. Assassin droid-piloted vehicles can be attacked by RA. It's only the unit on it's own that cannot be attacked by RA. I thought the "rifle" served as both the pistol and the rifle. They have the same stats... I guess I'll retake again. I knew the long ones were snipers, and the short ones pistols at least. They do have the same stats, but it's things like this (who can use them), that separates them.

General Magma Posted October 29, 2009 Posted October 29, 2009 Here's an army update. I forgot the COM transport and I can't take pics now anymore, so that comes tomorrow possibly, if not then saturday if I still have time by then. Update includes: General Grievous, 3 lightsabers 1 pistol (pistol from the 8014 clone BP set) 2x MagnaGuard both with an electrostaff. Pics: ~General Magma
-JD- Posted October 29, 2009 Posted October 29, 2009 Nice armies guys! I'm not sure. I hope we'll get all the entries in soon, but I suppose we'll start at the weekend if not. Yay! You can choose after you know the formations if you want, but not after you know the map. You'll find out which map you're playing on after I pair you up, which will happen near the start. So: We decide the positions before we start the game and before we know which map we are using? Does that mean we should prepare the positions for both maps beforehand? No. Friendly fire between units or vehicles isn't tolerated in this game. Lol. It would be pretty funny if someone accidently air-struck themselves! Pistols:
Oky Posted October 29, 2009 Posted October 29, 2009 You can choose after you know the formations if you want, but not after you know the map. But don't you choose the formation after we chose the map? No. Friendly fire between units or vehicles isn't tolerated in this game. Never mind. When I wrote that, I thought that on the space where a vehicle is destroyed, every unit is killed, so that you could destroy your own vehicle in order to kill enemy units, but now I saw that it's just the units on the vehicle that die. I have an army update to post as well. Maybe I'll do it tonight.
-JD- Posted October 29, 2009 Posted October 29, 2009 But don't you choose the formation after we chose the map? Thats what I said too. I'm confused! I have an army update to post as well. Maybe I'll do it tonight. Why am I worrying? My army is huge!
ADHO15 Posted October 29, 2009 Author Posted October 29, 2009 More photos: Thanks for those, Penguin. That made it a lot easier to see them. Here's an army update.

Thank you, Magma. I'll update your list with those. Make sure that com. transport comes in tomorrow please. Saturday might be a bit too late and it's an important vehicle that shouldn't be left out. Pistols: Thanks, Jammiedodger. I'll update your list too. So: We decide the positions before we start the game and before we know which map we are using? Does that mean we should prepare the positions for both maps beforehand? But don't you choose the formation after we chose the map? Thats what I said too. I'm confused! The unit positions for each army need to be in ASAP. I'll just make it easier and say that you can't know the map setup until the start of the game, by which time, everything else needs to be done. Never mind. When I wrote that, I thought that on the space where a vehicle is destroyed, every unit is killed, so that you could destroy your own vehicle in order to kill enemy units, but now I saw that it's just the units on the vehicle that die. You mean in an airstrike, or vehicle attacks? What? You cannot kill your own troops in any circumstances. I have an army update to post as well. Maybe I'll do it tonight. Great.
-JD- Posted October 29, 2009 Posted October 29, 2009 (edited) Apologies if this has been answered before and that I am this confused, but how do we plan where the units go? Do we get the map and paste the unit images in the desired places? I think I need a nice clear explanation to finally understand what to do. Thanks! Edited October 29, 2009 by Jammiedodger714

Do we get the map and paste the unit images in the desired places?I think I need a nice clear explanation to finally understand what to do. Thanks! You tell me which vehicles you want your units to start in, as you have already done. I then record all the info and set up the map for how you will start the game. This formation shouldn't differ much, if at all between the two maps. You will be paired up when all the players have entered, and then a coin toss will decide who chooses the map. I was going to save this for the start, but anyway: the map is split into 25 x 50 squares (h x l). The rows are given letters A-Y and the columns are numbered 1-50. You give the coordinates in the game and tell me what to move there. I will update the map and post it in the battle thread for you to see. Then your opponent has their turn and I do the same again. I will hopefully do a demo game tomorrow, so it should become clearer then.

General Magma Posted October 29, 2009 Posted October 29, 2009 It is late in the evening right here, and very dark, but using my new lamp I got around taking pics of the COM transport! By the way, 'til when do I have to post my troop positions? Anyways here are the pics: ~General Magma
Professor Flitwick Posted October 29, 2009 Posted October 29, 2009 After reviewing my collection of Star Wars LEGO, it is my solemn duty to report, ADOH, that I lack an amount close to that of an army. I have no Clones and roughly 7-10 Battle Droids. My Star Wars LEGO is mostly from the Original Trilogy, with a few exceptions. Sorry my friend, but I shall not be able to participate. P.s Penguin, how much did that armada set you back?
pedro Posted October 30, 2009 Posted October 30, 2009 Gentlemen! Managed to snap a couple of shots of my comparatively meagre CIS army... more like a detachment My camera's got the bends at the moment so the quality is a bit dodgy - but you can still make out what's what. Clearly Grievous is brickbuilt but I thought you'd allow me this one indiscretion ADHO... I ain't taking him apart! Total Darth Sidious Count Dooku (riding Flitknot speeder) Nute Gunray General Grievous Assaj Ventress 3 x droid comanders (1 x commanding AAT) 1 x destroyer droid 7 x magna droids 15 x super battle droids 20 x battle droids 1 x droid pilot (pilot AAT) 4 x elite assassin droids 6 x assassin droids 1 x dwarf spider droid 1 x hailfire droid 2 x homing spider droids 7 x STAP 1 x AAT Anyone wondering as to the absence of carriers, speeders, etc. - all so many parts or MOCs my friends! I'll see how I fair in our initial games and may resurrect some of the sets. I have a couple of extra unbuilt STAPs too but took the photos before I considered them. No matter! Incidentally my Republic force is probably far more powerful... just I've smacked myself with the MOC bat again!
RepublicForces Posted October 30, 2009 Posted October 30, 2009 OK, only a no-life buyer like the punguin could defeat him. (don't mean anything bad whit it)
ADHO15 Posted October 30, 2009 Author Posted October 30, 2009 Fantastic ADHO! Thanks a lot! I can sleep soundly tonight. Looking forward to that demo game! Great. Just ask if there's anything else you're not sure of. It is late in the evening right here, and very dark, but using my new lamp I got around taking pics of the COM transport! By the way, 'til when do I have to post my troop positions? That's all I needed to see, Magma. Thanks. I'd really like it if you posted them today. im intersted sounds sweet! Great, sairen, but with you joining late, you have to do everything very quickly. Because you can't use the PM system yet, you'll have to give me your email address here so I can send the full rules to you. You also need to post pics of your army here. Your vehicles need to be complete and easy to see, and I need to clearly see your units and their weapons. Ideally, I'd like this all done today, please. After reviewing my collection of Star Wars LEGO, it is my solemn duty to report, ADOH, that I lack an amount close to that of an army. I have no Clones and roughly 7-10 Battle Droids. My Star Wars LEGO is mostly from the Original Trilogy, with a few exceptions. Sorry my friend, but I shall not be able to participate. Too bad, but if you don't have much to play with, there's nothing we can do. Hopefully, a GCW-version will follow soon after this CW one has finished, so be looking out for that. Gentlemen! Managed to snap a couple of shots of my comparatively meagre CIS army... more like a detachment Wonderful army, pedro. However, without a com. transport or other transports, you won't be able to use most of those units. Think carefully about which units you want to use and tell me the positions you've decided on ASAP. My camera's got the bends at the moment so the quality is a bit dodgy - but you can still make out what's what. Bad quality?! That's much better than mine is at the best of times! Clearly Grievous is brickbuilt but I thought you'd allow me this one indiscretion ADHO... I ain't taking him apart! Do you at least have the body to prove that you did have him, and that you didn't just buy the head separately, as I cannot allow that. 3 x droid comanders (1 x commanding AAT)1 x droid pilot (pilot AAT) I cannot see these two, so I don't know if you really have them. Is there any chance of a pic of these with your other commander bds? Anyone wondering as to the absence of carriers, speeders, etc. - all so many parts or MOCs my friends! I'll see how I fair in our initial games and may resurrect some of the sets. I have a couple of extra unbuilt STAPs too but took the photos before I considered them. No matter! Oh, I see. If you get onto round two, you are welcome to add any more units or vehicles to your army.
Captain Genaro Posted October 30, 2009 Posted October 30, 2009 (edited) Okay so here are my troop placements 1 trooper on the BARC speeder. 2 gunners and Yoda in the AT-AP Comm. Fox Obi Wan, Mace, Plo, Anakin Ashoka, Comm. Cody and Capt. Rex in the AT-TE 1 Star corps and 1 shock per republic speeder bike (3) 1 piolet and 1 gunner per missle walker (4) 2 troopers in the Com. Transport. Everyone else is reinforcement right? Hope this is correct. Edited October 30, 2009 by Captain Genaro

Transport. Everyone else is reinforcement right? Hope this is correct. That all seems good. Thanks, Genaro. Everyone you've not included can be brought in by the com. transport. Remember everyone, some units have special abilities that only work when they are the pilot, gunner, etc. Make sure you tell me which units you want where if you want to use these abilities. I'll automatically put pilots in the pilot seat and gunners as gunners, but tell me if there's anything else you want specifically. Edited October 30, 2009 by ADHO15
Captain Genaro Posted October 30, 2009 Posted October 30, 2009 May I please make a quick edit. Insted of 2 troopers in the At-AP and 1 trooper per missle walker, I would like to change these out with gunners and have them take gunners postitions. Also, if I destroy an enemys Com. Transport can they bring it reinfocements?

Transport can they bring it reinfocements? You've confused me there. In each missile walker, you want a clone pilot and a clone gunner in their respective postitions? In the AT-AP you want a clone trooper as the pilot, a clone gunner as the gunner and Yoda as a passenger? Correct? Right. That's why it's very important you destroy theirs early and defend your own for as long as possible. They cannot call in air strikes or bring back dead units after it's destroyed either.
Oky Posted October 30, 2009 Posted October 30, 2009 (edited) So you need everything by today? I'm kinda busy today (first school, then a Halloween party) but maybe I can get everything in by midnight... But does this mean that we will start the game tomorrow? I sure hope it does! We have waited long enough for people to post their armies. If the remaining ones who said they were interested were really as interested as they said they were, they would have posted something by now. Why am I worrying? My army is huge! Not to worry, it's nothing major. Just some extra sniper rifles, bloodfins, and a dwarf spider droid. And yes, your army is huge. You are lucky that you changed sides, because otherwise you would have been the poor soul who gets paired with The Penguin. Edited October 30, 2009 by Oky Wan Kenobi
General Magma Posted October 30, 2009 Posted October 30, 2009 Here they are, my TROOP POSITIONS: First all of the troops: Count Dooku x1 (red lightsaber, “bent”) Asajj Ventress x1 (red lightsabers x2) General Grievous x1 (green lightsaber x1, blue lightsaber x2, pistol) Darth Sidious/Palpatine x1 (red lightsaber) MagnaGuard x2 (electrostaff [all of them]) Droid Commander x2 (blaster [one of them, the other unarmed]) Droid Pilot x2 (unarmed) Droid Security x2 (blaster [all of them]) Super Battle Droid x12 (2 rocket arm, the rest regular) Battle Droids x38 (blaster [all of them]) VEHICLE POSITIONS: COM transport – Darth Sidious AAT – droid commander MTT – droid pilot Battlepack Carrier x2 – 1 for a commander, the other for a droid pilot Hailfire Droid (no driver needed) Homing Spider Droid (no driver needed) Dwarf Spider Droid (no driver needed) Bloodfin – Count Dooku if possible? If not someone who can be in it Here they were, hope they are fine. ~General Magma

You are lucky that you changed sides, because otherwise you would have been the poor soul who gets paired with The Penguin. Ideally. I don't want to put much pressure on you, but you are one of the ones who wants it to starts as soon as. The game will not be starting tomorrow. Naturally, there will be a few latecomers, so I've allowed tomorrow as that day. Any time after that and you won't be in the game. I have to organise the remaining data, draw up vehicle formations, pair together players, etc. tomorrow. The Penguin, has agreed to perform a demonstration game with me on Sunday. The game will start next week when it's convenient for the first pair. If you could get thoise in as soon as possible, I'll add them to your list. VEHICLE POSITIONS:COM transport – Darth Sidious AAT – droid commander MTT – droid pilot Battlepack Carrier x2 – 1 for a commander, the other for a droid pilot Hailfire Droid (no driver needed) Homing Spider Droid (no driver needed) Dwarf Spider Droid (no driver needed) Bloodfin – Count Dooku if possible? If not someone who can be in it Your troops are fine. The com transport needs two people. The AAT needs a pilot. Your MTT has 21 other empty spaces. You want one transport piloted by a bd commander and one by a bd pilot? What about passengers? Count Dooku is fine on Bloodfin.
