Hello and welcome to another episode of StarWars Battlefront weekly my name is Greg Henninger.
And I'm Lorenzo Veloria And today we're going to talk about one of
our favorite battles that we hope makes it into Star Wars Battlefront, the
Battle of Yavin. Yeah, that's right. So, the Battle of Yavin was kind of just a, you know,let's
take our fighters and fly up to the Death Star, blow it up, real quick
and real easy battle in the movies, but the expanded universe says there was
a lot more that happened which they could use in Battlefront. Exactly, so in the expanded
universe, the Rebels had to clear out the Massassi Temple first and foremost
before they could set up their base of opperations, which they used to, you know, plan
the entire Death Star attack. Though, I'm thinking this would be a really good Rush
mode map (Right) where the first stage is, you have to go in, obviously clear
out the Imperials. If you're the Rebels, you're pushing forward. If you're
the Imperials you can stop them right then and there. But if not, then you clear it out,
you set up your base of opperations, head to the hanger, and then you're blasting
off into space. Yeah, take off into space. And then another thing in the expanded universe,
there was two Victory Class Star Destroyers escorting the Death Star to Yavin 4. They're
dying R2. Which makes so much more sense, so that's stage two.
without defense, really. That's right, Rush mode stage two, blow up the two Star Destroyers,
then you're off to the Death Star to blow that whole *** thing up. Yeah, and
of course, you could have, you know a couple of different ways you could take out
the Star Destroyers: land in the hanger bay, systematically take them out, shoot the shield
generator balls. I love, yeah, I'd love to shoot those
things. Ah, but, you know, after all of that is done, you're taking part in the entire
battle that was in the movies Yeah, so stage three, the Rush mode progresses
to the Death Star itself where a couple of things have to take place first. Yeah, so
I'm thinking that the third stage in the Rush mode would be taking down the
shield repulsor towers and the turbo lasers. Yeah, you can't just go straight
into the trench run. So, take that out. Once that's finished, when you're diving into the
trench, how about one of your players spawns as a hero. Right. The hero class comes
in. Red 5, Luke Skywalker, for the Rebels in there, and he's duking it out
with the Imperial side. Somebody becomes Darth Vader. Yeah, Darth Vader and they have to
duke it out within the trench and fire off the missiles. And then someone
else can become Han Solo, and if they're off having a little battle over here and if you
don't controll this battle with Han Solo, you can't get to the
trench in time. Yeah, and you can't save Luke Skywalker. Yeah. And, you know, that's the
perfect way to replicate that moment in the movies. And to make the battle
even more massive too, you could have the Trench Run going over here
while everybody else is trying to make sure that the guy in the trench is totally clear.
Exactly. So, you know, there's a lot of possibilities. That's what we thing
that the Battle of Yavin should end up like in Battlefront. Yeah and, of course,
if you guys have particular part that you want to see in the Battle of Yavin take place,
make sure you leave that in the comments section below
and we can discuss it amongst ourselves. Last week, we had a "Would you rather." It was,
"Would you Rather be roasted on a spit by Ewoks?" I've got a bad feeling about this.
Or, become Jar Jar's political advisor for life. "This am berry berry bad." Spadeslick
said, "With Jar Jar, at least I would have a semblance of political power. Getting
roasted alive by a bunch of tiny teddies is just embarrassing." That would be pretty embarrassing.
Thearccrew said, "Jar Jar would ruin nations, but being roasted will feed an ewok nation,"
Nice. Well, that's very good. Cobalt60games said,"I would advise Jar Jar to jump off a
cliff." That's a pretty sound strategy if you're his advisor. Right. So,
we have a new "Would you rather" for this week. And, it is: Would you rather, be sold
into droid slavory by Jawas, like R2-D2, and C3-P0 did, or you
could be Jabba's dancing slave for life. Jabba's sexy dancing slave for life.
So, either way, you're getting sold into slavory. Or fed to a Rancor. Yeah, your life might
not last that long. But go ahead and leave your
comments in the comment section down here and we'll read off our funniest and favorite
ones next week and we'll see you next time. And may the Force be with you. You've got
alot of carbon scoring here. Looks like you boys have seen a lot of action. Were you on
a space cruiser or... Oh, hey Lorenzo! I don't think this is the
R2-unit you were looking for, but if you do want to see last week's episode of
