Corellian class vessels (CR Cruiser, CR Destroyer, CC7700, CGun, Liberator), INT, Pirate Cruiser, and an SSD just because they are fun to look at, lmao!

So start matching those up with the ships you plan on having, then let me know what you still need. =)

Alternatively, we could always use X-Wing vs TIE Fighter style silhouette diagrams as visual representations of a ship.

Oh I dont care about that stuff. I just thought it would look cool if we all had little tokens on a grid instead of just "Im in D-8". Its not that important though.

Unless we all learned how to put pictures on pictures (I use Paint and PowerPoint for 100% of my graphic arts), then posting in images will need some work. The irony is that even if we have pictures, we still need to post other information via text (weapons, special abilities, etc). The other issue I see is maintaining starfighters and ships in the same grid.

Picture-on-picture gaming is one of those brick walls I don't think is feasible to cross, but I do I think a hybrid approach is worth pursuing if it means getting this game off the ground.

Well I was just talking a little paste and drop system. Like we have a grid, then we have all the little tokens on the side and you drag them over and place them on the grid. Yeah you'd still have to post everything, but it would also give us a visual of everything happening. They dont have to do anything but be on the grid where we drag them. Maybe a rotate button to make sure they face the right way.

See now we're getting into some next level web design/programming that is probably beyond Hop's level of expertise and time willingness.

Well, as far as time, that may be. Cant really speak for him or his willingness on that. However as far as expertise, thats some 9th grade computer concepts stuff, lol. You need a grid, and a token you can drag around it. Thats like 4 lines of code plus the tokens.
