Pilot Archive

Well people. I've seen all the footage and am now sorting through it but I think we need more.

I'd like the same peopleas last time along with others too. I'm waiting until Publish 24 is out when I want at least four POBS of YT or Courier class with a maximum of Six fighters.

I will start a post regarding specific details but I've had a brain wave from reviewing this footage and it fits in line with the general story arc I wish to follow.

Expect yourselves to becoming familiar with the antics of the hurriedly and temporarily assembled 'Point Squadron'in the near future...and beyond

Chat channel, as opposed to GroupChat, I assume? GroupChat worked fine for the last run, but had reached it's limit, and we were a bit gimped by not having the camera man included in the group.

Ideally, I think this would be a good setup.

• 3POB ships of YT or Nova descrip.


• 2 B-wings and a Y-wing or vise versa


• 2 x-wings


• A-wing

Somthing along those lines anyway...

If we want to use TS, the RSPA TeamSpeak server is always an option. It's the one we usually use for the large-scale PvP battles.

wow, that'd be cool.

I'm now thinking this.

• Y-8


• Nova


• YT-1300


• 3 X-wings


• My A-wing (since in the film resources are limited to our brave Alliance combatants, it makes sense that the Lt. sticks to the same ship)


• A Y-wing or B-wing would look cool...or maybe another A-wing.

I'm waiting until after Publish 24 to actually shoot this though because I want the POB ships to have their new gear. I want them to be scoring awesome damage and if we're having a Y8, I'd like it to be not bugged in anyway and have it's additional weapon placements.

As a secondary...well decored POB ships would make for good places to hold briefings.

I belive a "Everyone" TS Channel is in the works, no?

---

Aye. The "Rebel Alliance" channels visible on the server. Those will be activated as soon as the RSPA rooms have a password change.

How many people can be brought into a POB? It might be better to choose something ground based like the Rebel Base on Rori. I think one of it's rooms includes a tactical display like what is used in the movies. If not, it is possible to build houses very close to it and we might be able to 'borrow' one from someone that has already set up something appropriate. But, I don't think players can get the Tactical boards as a furniture item.

One of the things I noticed during the fighting last time was that there was a short pause between the waves since they were being cleared so quickly. This would allow gun crews to switch places with damage control crews on a POB. It is always much easier to recruit a gunner than a damage control since they don't get to see much action. But, if switch outs were planned, it might be easier to recruit more folks to help out.

Very true. Also, I am wishing to keep the number of snub fighters down because I don't ant to make the footage look like we're completely ganking the Ghrag fighters. I mean...6 fighters going after one NPC ship isn't very cinematic

You might want to do a test of a group that includes the POB captain but not turret gunners going after a mission target belonging to someone in the POB captain's group. 1) you can't enter the turret of a POB unless you are grouped with the captain (so I've been told) and 2) sometimes the turrets are considered independant enough to not follow all of the POB captain's leads in such things as uncdeclared/declared or mission target hit-ableness (yeah, that's not a word, shoot me).
