Alas, no working link for me. Does anyone know of a mirror? BT gives my computer the shits, to put it delicately.

It's not Jedi in a forest, so it's all good.

They also said that they hoped to have the chapter up by May 1st. I'm not placing much stock in that until I see it. Dammit, I don't know that BitTorrent would even work over AOL, even if I did think I had time to both download and install the client before downloading the chapter itself before tomorrow morning. :(

I'm looking at a 20 hour download, even zipped. I'd have to have everyone out of the house for a full day, which simply ain't happening...

Ok, they've got a new direct link on the site, via filefront.

Definately worth watching. :)

"Domain of the Imperial Battlgroup" didn't work for me. "Imperial Battlegroup $Name" would have done better for me.

Also, for some reason they had a General on the ground with the assesors there. Perhaps he wanted to get on the holonet... :lol:

It's been said before, but the Relentless's engines are clearly burning below spec, given the green glow.

I loved the toys they were smuggling. The scene with Boba Fett and the Predator was also great. Not as funny as TROOPS, but the special effects more than make up for it.

This shits all over SW:Revelations in every way, except maybe space combat. Loved it, but didn't particularly like the Relentless design of the two bridges, blue detailing and green engines. The uber-FTL also made me go WTF on first viewing and at the beginning the ships seemed to get way too close to each other.

Is it just me or does this have a Freespace edge to it? Like with the voice over that sounds like Admiral Petrarch in FS2, the swirling bright jump point FTL, and some of the ships when the Battlegroup arrives look kinda like shivan fighters.

EDIT: also had to mention: "I'm hearing something too! It's me saying i hate you" was classic, it felt like something off Red vs Blue.

Awesome. The long intro was great, especially with the AT-ATs being moved into position. Did something that the Prequels failed to do, give it a sizable scope and majesty.

Ghostbuster reference...awsome. I didn't like the jump gates though, not Star Wars to me. And was it just me, or did all of space and the fleet have kind of a funky glow to it? Thought that was a bit off as well. And who could forget the narrator from Voltron!! Sweet!!

Quicktime says it needs some file to view the movie. I can't watch it. :(

If it´s an AVI file, use VLC Media Player. Works like a charm.
