Hhhmph, strong is the sarcasm in this one ...

going off topic on my own topic. Does anyone remember the arcade game?

I miss those days of crap graphics and low expectations.

I always wondered who polished the floors. They were shiny to death.

...yes that video game was F'ing awesome!!!! T.O.T.A.L. I.M.M.E.R.S.I.O.N.!!

Mind blowing when you are 5 years old. 😀

How many people work on the Death Star

The Death Star has [i]a crew of 265,675, as well as 52,276 gunners, 607,360 troops, 30,984 stormtroopers, 42,782 ship support staff, and 180,216 pilots and support crew.[/i]

Also btw, [i]its hangars contain assault shuttles, blastboats, Strike cruisers, land vehicles, support ships, and 7,293 TIE fighters. It is also protected by 10,000 turbolaser batteries, 2,600 ion cannons, and at least 768 tractor beam projectors.[/i]

.

..and who pays their salaries?

The salaries are paid for by taxation.

HTH

as emperor of an evil galactic empire you are bound to have a few quid lying spare for the odd death star.

"you'll need a tray"

classic

7,293 TIE fighters

And yet they only sent about 50 out to stop the Rebel attack? Surely that's poor propaganda for the Empire. I bet Vader was always dashing about trying to run the thing single handed. No wonder he's always out of breath. Master of the Darkside or not, that's gotta be exhausting. Tsk.

You not heard the mothers of storm troopers complaining about the lack of supplies for the TIE Fighters?

I went long on hollowed out volcanos, lost a packet.

The arcade game was superb with those vector graphics.

The greatest discussion on Star Wars - Human Traffic

I remember the video game. The concept & graphics were ahead of their time. I wonder if you can get a modern version?

I downloaded a copy for my PC yesterday. Haven't had a chance to play it yet though. It's meant to be an exact clone of the original Atari Arcade game. That's my weekend sorted.

Cheers

You can emulate the game via name , I have 1000s of similar games

happy to share .

Thread has me thinking , would the empire have a good pension plan or share dividends linked to planet domination ???

I will sweep the floors of the death star if theres a job going, anythings got to be better than this crap I have to do this morning 😉

You got a link or somert for the game jon1973?

I'm at work now, but I'll put a link on tonight when I get home.

Just did a google on 'Star Wars Arcade' though.

Death star elevator music from "blue harvest"

and the "one weakness" scene from the same

ah i can't get youtube at work and i'm dying to watch all these...

Priceless...

What i want to know is how do you build something like the deathstar. I mean, where would you start ?

as there is no gravity in space, it would be easier than you think i reckon.

the hardest part is getting the parts up there, but strap some ibeam onto the minellinum falcon, and start with the basic frame structure, it could easily be manhandled into position by a person, though they probably would have used droids, and then spot welded or bolted down.

once the basic frame is up, its just a case of putting in the structural elements, then modular plastic units for the inhabited parts of the ship.

like building a boat?

It's not that simple though. There's all that builders tea to be made in a zero gravity environment for a start. Plus getting space suits with suitable bum crackage.

I mean, where would you start ?

Well you would start off by getting a skip.

Every construction project needs a skip dropped off before work can start.

yeah that always annoyed me the death star was stuffed with fighters

they sent a convincing 50 tie fighters after the millenium falcon and han never thought that was suspicous

Scafolding?

Ypu know, I think the STW massiv could build a Death Star. We've certinly got enough decent metal lying around.....

Scaffolding?

Erm........ it looks as if scaffolding might not be necessary - you should be able to reach most of it standing on a stool

Wow. I want a Death Star mounted on top of my house now.

How the hell is she going to get that out the door?

Well, it made short work of Alderaan, I can't see a door being too much of an issue .........

Well i thought about scaffolding but what do you fix it to, wouldn't it just float away ?

If you do start with a basic frame and build from there how would you get the power to it to make the tea or power the tools ?

This needs further thought although i do like the idea of a STW deathstar, we could have different sections for different styles of riding ! It could be a bit like the STW bike that was suggested a few weeks ago only on a bigger scale, I've got some cheap riser bars which i can donate to get the thing started and Ton has always got something he's looking to get rid of. Anyone else ?

I've got some old tiles lying around - ideal for making a splash guard for a toilet sink - I could even put them up. How many toilets does the Death Star have?

did anyone actually own this? it was my dream but I don't think I ever evan saw one in the flesh as it were
