well Ra's looked more like anubic warriors.
and they dont have a symbiote pouch.

I know that Heru-Ur's are Horras like Hathors.
And Apophis' serpantguards are snakeheads like Hathor has too.

"A powerful Goa'uld System Lord, Heru-ur is the offspring of Ra and Hathor. Until his death at the hands of Apophis, the cunning and self-righteous Heru-ur commanded one of the Goa'uld's largest fleets. He is known also as Horus the Elder, and his Jaffa guards are called "horus guards" (beaked creatures like those who once served his father, Ra)." --Heru-Ur

I don't know how far you are into your project, but I read earlier you were considering using railroads to link planets. If your not too far along , I thought up a concept to do it. Here is a screenshot i put together really quick showing how it could be done.

Making the gate grid along the border of the map like I've done in this screenshot shows how you can impliment it so it doesnt interfere with spaceships operating on sea tiles.

 

[killer_J27]

thats a great Idea DS_CL but ships culdnt cross them if there sea units right. How about making the ships Air units that arent immobile? Good idea?

 

[killer_J27]

If i make the Ships Air units then I culd just connect the Planets directly. But it'll probly look wierd? Think i shuld?

 

[Bluemofia]

no, i tested this, and the ships/planes would also get the movement bonus from the rail roads.

EDIT: Oops Blue got to it 1st o well. Then i guess that wont really work unless you think of it as the Ship Getting caught in the Artificial Wormhole As It passes through.

Oops double clik. Damn Dial-Up.

Well thats a good ides\a DS

 

[Bluemofia]

but what about the iris thingy that blocks the stargate?

 

[DS_CL]

This minimap screnshot is what I am thinking. The black represents impassible marsh terrain i put the stargate grid (railroads) on. In this case, it shows the gate network going on the outside of the map with spokes to every planet. You can see that leaves a lane in the middle so ships can travel to all planets. Depending on how you look at it, this can also help with distance. For example, you can see the planets I labeled A and B. A represents a planet on the edge of the galaxy, and as such takes longer to travel to because a ship going from B to A has to move around the planets in the middle.

This leaves that red square in the middle open for space (sea) travel. The way i think of it, using this method you are just looking at the galaxy on its side instead of the traditional overview look. Ships can't use the gates this way, and in some cases the aircraft should be able to use the gate. From what I remember a glider can fit inside the gate wormhole.

As for the iris. I would make all the ends of the railroads the actual stargates, make an immobile unit called "Iris" that is placed on top of the desired stargate with a sizeable defense value to deter most intruders. Hence, your Gua'uld attack from space rather than walk into the SGC.

Just some thoughts, what do you think?

 

[killer_J27]

Oh I get it good idea. Any idea what the Impassible Terrain Should be?

 

[killer_J27]

1 Question? If the Terrain u used is immobile then How Do the units travell by the railroads?

 

[subbss]

For the iris unit it should have a zone of control so a unit reaching the stargate from the railroad network can't travel diagonally and avoid the iris unit.

 

[DS_CL]

I would use deserts as the impassible terrain, and use flood plains to mimic planets that are deserts. C3C allows you to make use of the landmark terrains as well, if you wanted to have two impassible terrain types, you can use the landmark terrain to make them both the same.

As for travelling by railroads, as long as the units can enter and exit the railroad network units can travel across impassible terrain (i.e. catapults can cross forests if they are on a road). I suggest making the ends of the railroads the Stargates as I did in my example above.

 

[killer_J27]

ya but how culd u make the Stargate asd the end of the railroads?

 

[DS_CL]

take a look at this and see if it makes any sense. I havent tested it yet so i don't know it if works correctly, but you can see the concept.

 

[killer_J27]

looks good i think its gonna work. HOPE SO!!!!
Well thanx A LOT! I really appreaciate it.

 

[killer_J27]

heres a pic of what it loks like:

 

[killer_J27]

I correct myself the X-302 is a ship.


X-302
Completely constructed by the U.S. government (with several reverse-engineered Goa'uld components), the X-302 was the second prototype for Earth's orbital defense, but the first to carry a naquadria-enhanced hyperspace generator -- making it the first man-made ship capable of interstellar travel.
The design and configuration of the ship is similar to the X-301, based on the Goa'uld death glider. The X-302 is slightly larger, and like its predecessor, accommodates two people.

The Prometheus (the X-303) is equipped with a number of X-302s, capable of being launched and received through a landing bay.
