Windu, if you are desperate for an infantry skin, or just too busy, gimme a buzz.

5-6 magna guards together to take out a council hero

I think it'd take a lot more than that... look how easily Obi-Wan and Anakin take 'em down. Those fights last a few secconds. The cartoons blow their and Grievious ability out of proportion... in the film, Grievious is absolutley useless, loosing arms left right n' centre. A machine can't match the power of the force, no matter how intelligent it is. The jedi's only real weakness is their rareity and how long it takes to train 'em. They're pretty much always going to be outnumbered. I'd say look to the MOVIES for reference. Jedi Knights who've looked after the republic for thousands of years, aren't just going to be taken down by the first droid with an electro-staff now, are they?

[Ø¡¹Fear.]

Aye, although in the movies i kinda get the feeling they just stray a little from realism to show how anakin is the chosen one and all that therefore anyone who he comes across regardless of how powerful they have been before gets obliterated, aside from obi wan who all through the saga has had near death confrontations. Although two of these things fight fisto and he defeats them quite ealisy so hmm.
The 2 magna guards you see on the invisible hand were the only 2 to survive the kidnapping of the chancellor and fighting the emperors guard so i guess theyr not to strong. although they could be effective against vehicles with the missle launcher salvos they have. A long range power for them.

magna guards are pathetic in all the games that I have played (starwars games etc) they are so easy to take down and since when could I droid, that could have a cpu crash take down a jedi master. And were those magna guards that fight obi-wan and anakin in the film, Grievious *royal guard* or something. I really hate the idea of any other unit being able to match jedi knights and sith lords becuase they would lose their value in battle.

Also why not have some diffrent jedi classes , jedi Guardian , jedi Sentinel etc, abit like in Knights of the old republic if anyone remembers the game that is.

If you want to make your own Jedi that looks different, thats what Create-a-hero will be for. But no Jedi guardians, etc. This isnt based off the cartoons, but off the movies. Thats why we dont have heroes like Durge, and others.

Gameplay-wise, MagnaGuards will be an anti-hero or anti-commando unit. They take down beefed up single units better than others. The counter to slow-moving vehicles will be the Hailfire Droid, which is especially good against the AT-TE. To counter fast-moving vehicles, build AAT's.

This mod seems to be moving along at a fast pace! keep it up!

[Feanor]

I see

[Master Windu]

Thanks for the compliments. We are moving at a pretty fast pace. I have just finished making all of the Republic heroes and units with the exception of the Wookiee warrior and the Clone Sniper.

Pick one unit from the Republic you would like to see in the update:
Yoda
Anakin (completely new, robed and unrobed)
Padme
Commander Cody
Episode 2 Clone Trooper
Episode 3 Clone Trooper (not the 501'st)
Episode 2 ARC Trooper
Clone Commando (more like a special clone than a commando)

Aside from the CIS unit that was picked, and this, I will be choosing one or two more to appear in the first update.

[Mathijs]
