I'm back, i was bored and decided to put this together to get my mind of episode II. I HAVE TICKETS! THURSDAY, 1:30! I HAVE TICKETS!
This is not the report i was preparing for so long. Can't be done anyways since it's so out of date, being that it was made in the days of 1.07. Comment please, and be specific. Someone please explain the file read thing to me, it doesen't show up in preview, it just says the text i put in.

Awesome br, I really, really enjoyed it.

btw, just because your previous report was done in 1.07 doesn't mean it can't be posted. You can even title it like "retro 1.07 br" or some snazziness like that.

gw, gw.

Imperial Probe Druids?

Couldn't they just get a Probe Druid to cast "Charm" or "Mass Domination" on Echo Base?

Nicely timed report :-)

The speeder/walker scene in "Empire Strikes Back" always made me laugh. "Oh no, their armor is too strong for blasters! Let's tie their shoelaces together!"

I bet he meant droids not druids :- Þ. It was very nicely done but, being that I've seen all of the movies at least 20 times each, I knew most of the stuff. I had no life in 2nd grade ;- ). This one is a definite gold!

I never get bored of the Battle of Hoth. I've played "Shadows of the Empire" for N64 about 30000000 times. Always just the Battle of Hoth. =] Awesome. 10 just because it has "Star Wars" in it.

Great BR! I love star wars (already got my epII ticket). I liked the way you approached it and you didn't go by what happened in the movie shot by shot, but did more of how you would find it in a historical text, good job.

Although I've never been much of a star wars fan, this was very enjoyable! You even cared to explain basic stuff to "Lesser Informed" beings such as myself.

He probably doesn't wish to do his other 1.07 report because he might have forgotten it. No reps, and if there are no notes or references back to what happened during the game his report could turn out out to be less then what he is capable of.

Alright, i see that this was a good report, but what did i do wrong? :D
other than the druids thing.... (damn you ms word auto correct!)

Was a good br.

Personally I wondered about the snowspeeder attacks. The AT-ATs had guns mounted on the front right? So why did the snowspeeders always make their approach run from the front? Makes for a more dramatic attack, but not too sensible.
#21 [116902]
St-Catherines-ppp112471.sympatico.ca
erm, I think the director cared more about drama than tactical sensibility :)

Just to let you know Overmind. I'm guessing you didnt read the SW:Book "The Empire strikes back."
Because in the book, A rebel Pilot named. "Hobbies" whos speeder was shot badly, his gunner was dead, and himself mortaly wounded. He took it upon himself to ram the lead AT-AT. Which General Veers (Or some other guy I don't remember) was riding in. In short, The speeder rammed the "Head" of the walker. Basicly destroying it.
So that makes 3 walkers dead. Not 2 =p

What can i say? I like SW as much as the next guy.
#23 the()vermind[116917]
p69-236.acedsl.com
i was rummaging around my house looking for the book, then i decided it would be smarter to use the film version, since most people are more familiar with it.
I remember what you're talking about though.
WHAT DID I DO WRONG? :D

If the temp is -100 something, wouldnt they instantly catch frostbite?

Im pretty sure in the movie people arent wearing any kind of mask outside the base


But still asskicking report

Noooooo! My background! The background to my next br is almost the same. Dang u!

Gotta love Star wars
#26 B.R.This[116956]
spider-mtc-tf053.proxy.aol.com
Lol, I forget to say I really liked this.

Amoeba:
Its -100 AT night.
During the day its warm enough to go outside. Lets say, -10 or something.
The reason for this is because the sun warms up the surface of the planet.
Also clothing in SW should be really advanced.
They should be warm, the only kind of mask they had was this cloth that wrapped around there lower head and covered their necks.

I think that should explain.

Good. There was a major tense problem (you flipped from past tense to present tense and back, bad manner) at the end, but that was the only major grammar problem AFAIK. I felt there was somewhat of a lack of focus, unfortunately; the pre-battle text was very well done, but the battle and post-battle text seemed almost rushed.

Easy gold, anyway.

In the movie, the Empire Strikes Back, Hobbie is the pilot who flies with Wedge Antilles, who obviously can't die in the battle of Hoth, as he is in the Battle of Endor and several later books.

I liked it but i dont get it. How do you get a 9 for something that you didn't even create, and simply just made the movie into br format?
#30 [117008]
St-Catherines-ppp126465.sympatico.ca
Redemption, that's like asking "how do you get a 9 for making a br from a replay, about a game you didn't even play and a product you didn't help design?"

I donno. Its in the book, ask Lucas.
Or did you ever think there was "Two" Hobbies?
Ya I bet you never thought of that.

And Wedge Antilles gunner in the BoH.
Is a guy named "Jackson" or "Jetson" I donna know.
