|
|
I recently saw the last pirates of the Caribbean movie, and I thought (in addition to "Gosh whoever made that movie must have been a little sadistic,") what if we did a sort of Star Wars version of that? You know, Pirates of the Corellian Something. It could be a sort of RPG within an RPG. I was thinking that perhaps it could have slightly different rules, to allow it to be more piraty, but it would still be affected by out side events, like a big fleet going to Corellia.
So... what does everyone think? _________________ Assets: 50,000 credits.
"Nothing" is a noun. therefore it must be something. Doesn't that ever bother you? |

I think this idea has crossed all of our minds at some point, but with our current cross overs, some of us with multiple infractions, we shrugged and decided it would be best to have one less. |

Nope, its just on the edge of my quadrant, if anyone has claim otherwise its Cliff, because the border it lies on is the one I share with him. _________________

You think the Empire's division of quadrants doesn't take into account potential areas of expansion? _________________

Does this use the actual quadrant system or the one you drew up, Adria?  _________________

The logical system of putting a big circle ontop of the galaxy map and then jigging it around so that everyone had a nice selection of worlds, lest ye forget I still have less worlds this way, due to my quadrant having a large infestation of Rebels. _________________

It is a DMZ. I'm not particularly liking the idea of people calling it a part of Imp territory. It's not to be claimed by anyone. That was the agreement. _________________ Han Solo; Captain of the Millennium Falcon

It isn't Imperial territory by any stretch of the imagination.
What Adria and I refer to is how the Empire has sectioned up the Galaxy into administrative districts which isn't restricted to Imperial territory, but the Galaxy as a whole.
Basically, the Supreme Moffs are responsible for watching a quarter of the Galaxy, both their own planets and handling intelligence and battle plans on enemy/desired worlds in their quadrant. Of course, the war arrangement I made with you and Cray still stands.  _________________

Well, I think they're saying it's within an Imp quadrant. _________________

It is... because we chopped up the whole Galaxy without regard to political borders.
I'll explain on MSN. I've said enough here that was meant to be behind closed doors for now. _________________

I know how your system works. I'm just saying, Ben's saying that Corellia falls within his realm of jurisdiction of the Empire's worlds. _________________

There aren't its policed interally, but its not like the Imperials don't have their borders patrolled. _________________

Actually, there are, we just don't see them in the game because people haven't chosen to go down that route. They can be on any planet, really, all it takes is a plotline to explore or a character that someone wants to pick up.
But again, Corellia is neutral in the game. I understand what Moff is saying but that doesn't make it an Imperial owned world. Far from it. _________________ Han Solo; Captain of the Millennium Falcon

Yeah, but Han, since when have we Imperials cared for flimsy treaties we've made with hostile powers? And since when haven't we laid claim to the entire universe?
Corellia may be neutral but its surrounded by Imperial Planets, thus, the argument over borders essentially constitutes who gets to deal with any problems to the Empire that comes from there...and Adria's answer to planets that cause her problems and headaches is to take them out of the equation. _________________

But that's 'Imperial territorial politics', not what the rest of the galaxy, and certainly not Corellia, go by.
