I was a huge fan of the Galactic Conquest mod for the Battlefield 1942 engine back in the day. Looking at this trailer reminds me that BF1942 really cornered the market with vehicles. All of the maps had great vehicles; snow speeders, AT-ST and AT-AT on Hoth, Cloudcars on Bespin, land speeders, T-16s, skiffs and Jabba's sailbarge on Tattoine. They also had several massive space maps, I mean very massive maps; Death Star trench run as well as capital ship battles with Corellian Corvettes and Nebulon-B Frigates.If you have a copy of BF 1942 sitting around, dust it off for some Star Wars action.* http://www.galactic-conquest.net/ <- seemingly dormant* http://web.archive.org/web/20080124143100/http://www.galactic-conquest.net/The installer for GC is/was hosted on several download sites like FileShack, etc. Yea, the graphics are old looking, but the vehicles and maps are very well done.

The term "laser gun" is really just a remnant of sci-fi from the '50s and early '60s when lasers were cool, exotic, and the audience had no idea how they worked.

Just because they look somewhat like lasers doesn't mean it is, actually all evidence shows it's not. It's advanced technology we can't understand. And Star Wars is a "Space Opera" science fiction, where story > hard science (and those are always more enjoyable in my opinion) That’s not Star Wars unless the Storm Troops always miss. ;)

You can throw thermal detonators and shoot up Stormtroopers! Where is the problem in that?!? Why bother about the physics behind laser weapons and barrels?
