Haven't played with zeroedit so I'm wondering if the mountains behind and to the sides of the water are going to be seen in game.

let me give you some advise, maybe you can use a image hosting like Photobucket.com, you can sign up for free and put all your image of that project and putting the image here by using a img tags and it will help reduce the server space that admin is having.

oh you are using a image hosting but imageshack.us..... i like the hosting but use Photobucket, it help to get all your project image in one place without scatter them all over. give photobucket a try

The IMp's will be attacking and the reb's defending. I still need many suggestions and I will post questions that I need help on here.

Question: The IMP's need a main base, and I dont know how to make it. I know that they dropped Prefabricated bases onto the battlefield, but what did they look like?

In the actual battle, the troops came ashore by transport boats. You could either use a redesigned skiff or make your own hover transport. As far as the making your own, I'm still trying to figure that out. Also, for authenticity purposes and only a suggestion, The nazis defended and the allies attacked and were being overwhelmed. The main reason for their success was shear determination and sense of duty. Considering the starwars universe, having the imps as attackers would be a sure guarranteed victory.(imps had better weapons, better equipment, better troops, and better funding while the rebels has little to no funding, a ragtag army, and severly used equipment). Reversing it will make the map more intense. If you can make the map larger, then having imp walkers advancing to the beach will support the intensity and beating the map as the rebels will be a true test to the players skills. But it is your map and make it how you like. I would play it either way just because of the idea and design.

Yep, sounds beter to have the imperials be the nazis and the rebels be the allies. I think it would be better to go this route, but like sdwhwk said, it's your map.

I would have done that, but the problem is that the attacker should have some large vehicles that are used for assault. The rebels don't have a mobile cp :( . If you have an idea please spit it up so that this project can go faster and smoother. :)

I will be using the tatoine skiffs for that function. If someone could model one and export it as a .msh i might be able to make a WWII like skiffboat.

Big question: Should there be flyers?

Has anyone got the rebel hover mobile CP to work?

I would also use speeder bikes in place of the boats to get across the ocean. That might be worthwhile in order to make the rebels the attacking force. Use the skiffs as well as maybe a few speeder tanks. Then have a CP at the beach for the rebels to capture so they don't need to spawn from the ocean. That's how i would do it.

As for the guns you have there, wouldn't it be better to make them regular gun emplacement turrets, that way you could just build walls around them and you wouldn't have anything in the way of the turrets. I also was thinking because they are supposed to be like machine guns, maybe you could actually speed up the fire rate and lower the recharge rate for these guns.
