Could a GE AC6000 pull....

The General Electric AC6000, one of the most powerful trains around today, question is, what can it pull?

Stravo, I love your fanfic, but I got a few questions. In ANH Vader was respectful of Tarkin, listening to him, obeying him in some instances, but Tarkin was always very respectful to Vader aswell. So they had equal power, or close to it. In this fanfic, the time line is well beyond ANH, and Vader i...

I would take Wallace. Dennis Rodman is the far better rebounder, but Wallace scores more (they both suck at this, but Ben is better), can block shots, and steal the ball. Seeing as how you're a basketball fan and on SD.net, you might be interested in looking at some of these sites. The APBRmetrics ...

I'm a huge basketball fan, and lately I've been downloading A LOT of old bulls games, and I've been watching rodman especially, he is an AMAZING player, oh my god. He defends big guys, small guys, perimeter, in the paint, doesn't matter. He gets more rebounds than everyone else, he fights to the las...

You can also produce, vastly outproduce the republic in space droids aswell, arm vulture droids with anti capship missiles, make 50 billion of them, and you win the space war.

I suppose they could (I seem to recall Rogue Squadron carrying them later on), but they would still need a whole lot to be a threat to a cap ship. It's more effective to just put a whole lot of missile emplacements on a larger vessel, as the GAR did with Acclamators and Victories. Thats not the CIS...

The republic forces on the ground atleast should have been outnumbered well beyond what we saw in the movies, knowing that, we shouldn't have seen the CIS forces consistantly losing in each battle scene in AOTC and ROTS.

I mean...people are talking about what capital ships are in orbit, but I mean down in the nitty gritty. In the caves, forrests, deserts, marshes, you name it. We know that the regular battle droid of the CIS can compact itself down to 50% its standing height, which would make for great packing, as w...
