Future "Jedi" discovered........ yeahhh right...

[tigersag]

So I'm playing my first game as the empire in a a looong time since I last played it on the CD version. Darth Vader goes looking for future Jedi candidates and WHAT does he find????

Orlok and Covell!!!! R&D nerds.....

if I really train these guys their combat skills might just get up to 50.. i think!.......

worst random pick ever......right????

[poke_ravi]

I haven't installed this game yet but why in the hell would Vader train future Jedi? Wouldn't he train them as dark jedi or sith initiates? And weren't Orlok and Covell just some random Imperial generals.

[tigersag]

Yeah that's what I meant.. dark jedi.. and yes covell and orlok are if they were collectible dolls that you used to get for your birthday from your relatives the kind that made you go:

"Gee... thanks..... ehh I think.."

but that was my point.. i get the two biggest nobodies and they turn out to be force sensitive. At least Luke Skywalker was an ace pilot with some survival skills from growing up on Tatooine.

also you really SHOULD install this game if you like star wars and strategy. I think this game comes closest to what it was like playing with the dolls and imagining you WERE Darth Vader or Lukeskywalker. The graphics for the ship battles are really old by now but the game is really deep if you take the time to get to know it better. You really have to balance out your fleet with your resources, there's at least ten different ways to approach the game and every time you play it's diffferent because things won't be in the same place.

The best is when Vader finds Piett or one of the other diplomats. Their diplomacy rating goes through the roof.

It's always hit or miss. I remember one game where I was lukcy enough to get Natasi Daala as a force sensative. Admiral Daala, poster girl of the imperial navy, with the power of the Force. I don't recall how effective she was, but the fan boying alone made it worth it.

can i ask a question?

i only owned this game for a little while and i am trying to figure out how to train the first of my force senstives also does rebels get force sensitive people or just the empire?

[Quathos]

The Rebels start out wiht Luke as force sensitive. If Luke confronts Vader and wins/escapes, he learns that Leia is force sensitive. They also get to two random finds as well, but Luke isn't as good a teacher.

One think you should be able to do is use the Emperor to do the force training on the capital. Also, Daala is a great force user. She is a good fighter and has strong leadership.

Either way, if you run your force users though some training, then have them tag along with a good diplomat, they will raise the score. Same thing for fighting. Pair them up with no non-characters even as decoys.

so they just have to be on same planet together or on a mission together for training?

[tigersag]

Yeahh i think it's also lame you can't use the emperor to do force training..

also I think it should be able to bring Luke or any other force sensitive to the dark side using some kind of mission the emperor and darth vader can only do.

once you're done with recruiting characters the emperor just sits around on coruscant

[tigersag]

p.s.: @dodge you just select teacher and student, then mission and then click on the planet and then they will start to train to be (dark) jedi

it takes quite a while because you have to do it multiple times and if training is interrupted somehow then you have to do it all over again.

Because his Force Ranking is Jedi Master in the game. Sadly, so is the Emperor... Let's just say some details are missing from the game... My guess is the developers did not want to confuse the player if playing one side or the other with descriptions.

This one time, when I playing the Rebels, Luke found that Lando was force-sensitive. Then, almost immediately (a day or two later) he found that Lando was a traitor, so I had to retire him.

i cant find any future jedi at all for empire. i have a huge party on corusant and they all they kinda look at each and nothing.

If Vader has been present, and all of the Characters in question have been in the same location ( system v. fleet v. "on mission" are different locations ) then you probably just really have no candidates

Yeah, I've had games where I've had 5 or 6 candidates, and then others where I've never found any. In my current game I found Orlok around day 600 and then Daala around day 1000 (serves me right for having her lead fleets). No-one else is force sensitive.
