:nervous: Umm... That window wasn't being hammered with harpoons now was it? Would Bosch been anywhere near that room had there been GTVA forces nearby? Hell no!

I thought we all agreed that Bosch was a sucessful beverage entrepenure, most famous for his personal brand of beer.  :nod: Brewing and programming seldom go together.

Lets face it, only realistic scifi ship design is a Borg cube.

Actually, Star Destroyer general design is pretty good too. It can concentrate all of its forward firepower in its forward arc, yet still deliver more % of its firepower on a broadside than a cube (assuming firepower is evenly distributed).

Hey WMC, could you share a coders insight on the original questions and our wild guessings, pretty please ?

True. But the "bridge" kinda ruins it. It evens has shield generators placed in the most voulnerable place there is! But that minor detail aside, Star destroyer is one of the greatest designs there is merging therotically working, simple design with scifi extensions and still looking good.

hi,
yeah, shooting down a star destroyer is really easy with a Y/B-Wing.
Blow up that stupid shieldgenerators, 3 or 4 pronton-topedos for each, disable the destoryer with the ion-gun and easy going *g*.
if you doesnt have Y/B-Wing a wing of X-Wings are good enaugh too, but the turrets make so a lot more trouble.

i dont understand why they doesnt see so a big bad mistake ...

Re: Direct effect of destroying subsystems?
@Mehrpack: Try playing on the "hard" difficulty setting. Then you'll have to bring down the shields first, before you can destroy subsystems (like shield generators), which makes a tad more sense.

ok thats sounds better, as i had play X-Wing and co. i hadnt try the highest level.

but i dont understand why it not as default so was in the games.
i mean so isnt a star destroyer not a real star destroyer.
