Ok, I know the first Death Star has been destroyed by now and that the Rebellion does not know about the second Death Star yet, but do you think the Devs should include one in JTL? IMO, it'd be a great battlefield/combat area, just imagine it!

Well....we don't see it in the sky of Endor.......


That said, I don't see any reason why not - continuity has never been a stopping point before,

Adding another Deathstar before ROTJ is a major break in continuity....a major one.


Lucas will not approve it...even for gameplay.


Funny thing here. Ok you have people calling for it and saying who cares about continuity.


Then if somechance SOE GIVES in and puts DS in for battlefields. People will come out of woodwork crying continuity problems. They can't win.


But remember, content is approved by Lucasarts first and foremost. If there is break, direct your emails to Lucasarts.

Sorry Frohike, but I gotta disagree with you there. The thing didn't just APPEAR out of no where when ROTJ began. It was constructed over a long period of time. So perhaps we should see the beginnings of the construction. An advanced, sercret Imperial Installation mabye? What could it be doing? But a battlefield is a little extreme since the Rebels aren't acctually supposed to know about it. Not that battles couldn't occur there, but a large scale capital ship engagement is out of the question here. Sorry, try Corellia or something.

The DS may be out of the question, but I fully expect to see the Executioner out there somewhere...

Yes, but rebels didn't find out till about then. We can't have rebels finding the new DS before the Battle of Hoth, can we??? =)


I can handle the small breaks here and there. But big ones like that....can't stomach.


Don't get me wrong, It would be alot of fun. But just plain wrong.

i think they can add the death star 2 to endor but not as we see it in ROTJ


it should a lot less complete probably 1/8 of the entire sphere


maybe it could even be a imperial theme perk

I think I read in the EU that the second Death Star was just beginning construction at the time the first one was blown up. If that's true, then it would at this time likely be too small to be seen in the sky over Endor. Of course, we're also looking at a very static area of space, and can't see the sky over the whole planet since we can't explore the whole planet, really. It could be on the opposite side from where we play.

But that doesn't mean that it can't have been moved to it's ROTJ position at a later date.

Umm... hyperdrives on TIEs, remember?


You guys don't have to worry. The devs have obviously forgotten about continuity in JTL.
