Still a little stuck - any resources as to what types of forces, and relative effectiveness, equipment, etc., that are available if SWGB? I'm not really familiar with the game, and I'd like to pick something that would be able to integrate the RP aspect, even if I'm not going to be overseeing any of the game-based battles.

Yeah. I'm debating if we should remodel the RP to do a Star Destroyer crew and make it less expansive. Would be easier for people to pick roles of the navigator or the Political Officer (which I really think the Empire needs) if the battle group is tiny.

Far as the game resources there's carbon, food, nova crystals, and ore. Everything is basically self explainatory except the nova crystals which is like precious gems. They take the place of gold on the Age II engine.

None. They always surrender right before they finish the job and never tell you why.

I meant any online resources to tell more about what types of troops/units are used in the game. I wouldn't want to pick something that doesn't exist in the game, or something which would hinder the RP aspect of what we're doing.

Personaly, I think a ship-based RP would be simpler to do and easier for people to pick up. But it's your RP, so whatever you decide.

I believe doing it on a star destroyer or some such would be much easier.

If we are switching to a ship-based RP, then I'd like to lay claim to the role of Political Officer you mentioned in advance.

With or without command of a Regiment on top of that? :wink:

Sure let's switch to a Star Destroyer Command. I'll be in charge of the ground forces. I'll make the appropiate edits.

I assume this is your average ISD MKII we're commanding?

Cool. Now we just need people to call their ranks and positions.
