Dissapointed in Revelations? Want to see a good Star Wars fan film? Then I.M.P.S, or Imperial Military Personnel Stories, is just for you. You'll love Stormtroopers and the Empire after seeing Chapter 1 :nod:

They could have chosen a better acronymn. Unless it's satire, though it doesn't look like it to me. Something manly like V.A.N.G.U.A.R.D or C.H.E.S.T.H.A.I.R

It is about as much as satire as TROOPS was.  And I must say, it was brillianty executed.  Before I saw the video, I thought it wouldn't have been better than TROOPS, but it turns out, yes TROOPS was still better :D.  Not by much, though.

Is there any way to get the file at faster than 1 kb/s? Some of us are forbidden to use their upload bandwidth for servers (ESPECIALLY bittorrent). :doubt:

Oh, I see, you can get it at 2 kb/s from the mirror. :isgh:

BTW can anyone tell me what TROOPS is and where to get it?
I recon it's the ancestor of IMPS, though 'til now I never heard of it.

It took some time, but I found it.  It was made in '96 and wasn't finished until '97.  It is fairly consistent with Tatooine non-urbanized culture (which as a matter of fact, seems alot like Minnesota or North Dakota).  It was re-released when *gasp* QT3 came out.
