Forgotten Showcases: "Project Thrawn"
Post a comment
Description
Whilst cleaning up my PC I've found some showcase videos, which show features we have in the mod, but never uploaded for reasons I've long since forgotten.
This one was code-named "Project Thrawn".
It adds a little more realism to the Interdictor cruisers.
They are now not only preventing retreats, but hyperjumping in on top of them for all factions as well.
So this little ability now has a trade-off for you as well as for the enemy.
Oh, and does someone have a clue why we chose that code-name?
I assume the code-name is Thrawn because he famously used his Interdictors to pull his own ships out of hyperspace in a position so the enemy was practically defenseless against the instant overwhelming firepower of his ships.
That was spot-on. (You weren't tired when posting that, I assume ;)
You probably chose the code name because Thrawn used interdiction ships to trap opposing forces in at there disadvantage preventing their escape and often pulling them out of hyperspace en-route to their destination. If I recall correctly the battle where Thrawn was killed he positioned 4 immobilizer-418 cruisers so that the new republic fleet would be pulled out of hyperspace in a pre-positioned pincer movement.
