Welcome to Gaia! ::

Not really, this makes his task force including a Republic-class Star Destroyer make more sense. Thats one of the "New Class" ships that is the focus of the New Republic's Shipbuilding efforts.

I was going to say I think the Jedi Shadows were disbanded after the Sith collapse and start of the rule of two. They are sith hunting specialists after all, without the sith they'd have no place in the order.

Good thing I'm not against yall.

I was reading the Wookieepedia entry

"It was manufactured by Rendili StarDrive for the New Republic. The Republic-class was smaller than Lira Blissex's Imperial-class Star Destroyer, but was a much more efficient design.[1]

Although the Republic was only half the cost of an Imperial and required a mere one-fifth the crew, it boasted 20 percent more firepower than an Imperial I model. However, it was still outmatched by the Imperial II-class and the various Super Star Destroyers.[1] "

I suppose your outright ignoring my request then.

What exactly do you want at the Sector Capitol Des? An office?

Trust me Des, sane people will want to stay away from this Sector Seat... it's being run by a guild of bureaucrats... Do not approach lest you loose brain cells.

I suppose you could have the same warning for the Zeltron colony... Do not approach lest you like parties.

*sigh*

And people wonder why I don't trust anyone to be my successor. Everyone seems to need someone to moderate these disputes. The attempt at working together seems to be failing faster than a starving hutt, and I'm sick and tired of the whining. 30+ pages in less than a week, and for something that has been mentioned, talked about, and generally fixated in the works numerous times before, the progress has been slow.

I'm about ready to simply lock this thread down and say forget this, because everyone seems to be unable to make much of a debate, and acknowledge the issues. Such as:

1) 13 vs. 17: what are the advantages of each year? I'm about ready to say shut up and pick 15 ABY, since that's the medium and damn whatever canon event is going on. We want to try to be by the book, but Anyone that remembers Shards of the force remembers it was only 10 ABY, and I managed to come up with 3 jedi, 3 sith, a droid army, massive NR fleets, and stuff that /shouldn't/ really exist properly. if it's just canon issues, we can try to let setting slide some.

2) Why do we really need such open ended jedi options? What are /you/ going to be making that requires it? Much more importantly, in this RP, why are jedi so prominently needed anyway? Short of DA, nobody has any plans for making one, do they?

3) Normally I assumed Cale was going to be the main GM. Not me. So is there any complaints that are fundamentally sound to propose someone else? or are we going to utilize his judgement?

4) Everyone's focused on building the systems. But I have yet to see the Sector rangers, the NR, and the terrorist organizations numbers, ships, stats, and crew being discussed and solidified. Only the imps have actually been talking about what they're in need of and agreeing on what they're going to present.

5) And finally, I want to know WHAT you plan on doing, and how this fits into everything. Period. Why they exist, what their purpose is, etcetera.


Once we get THAT down pat, I see no reason to be worrying about galaxies and whatnot. WE can't even get the mechanics in place, and people are just powertalking. I really dont' want to lock the thread down and toss it aside until every one of you starts acting more mature. If that happens, you will not like the RP, and you won't like me. I would rather not sit down with each of you individually like kindergardeners in time out and ask you "what's wrong with this" and "quit being selfish".

And I've been working with Des on trying to hammer out the numbers on the Sector Rangers
