i must admit i kinda dropped the ball on informing the rancor pit on the issues i have had with the holocron. im really kinda bad with keeping up on forums as its always been just too much for a guy like me to keep track of.

the servers that hold the site managed to get overloaded by activity and since i use a service to house this site they cut me off due to the overload. pretty much the site crashed the server. the cause was the combination of users mixed in with the huge amount of spam bots that keep attacking the pages. this would not be too big of a deal it is wasnt for the fact that my home machine died on me and i have not been able to order a new machine yet due to even more issues im not going to go into right now. at this time im hoping to have the pages back up again within the next 2 weeks, and yes that is the best i can give on the etr of the problem. could be less and could be more.
i really am sorry that the site had to go down on you all as i have loved the fact that the library has been used by so many people that i had no idea still showed interest and played this game. also never thought that so many bots and attacks would come thru to the site being how small i always thought we all were. guess the d6 crowd is bigger than i originally thunk.
so, i do hope to have the pages back in a short time to allow all to access its pages of information again and get some vid conferencing going for all the holocron users to meet, greet, confer, and scream at each other after that. along with a ton of other options im looking into (the forum idea not being one as the rancor pit covers that and i dont like stepping on toes).
i will try and keep attention to this forum for now especially and have a few others watching to give updates as we have them. until then keep an eye out for Darth Lucas, and may the force be with you. (lord knows in need it with me right now)

i dont want to say the site is fully back in running order for a while yet, but i did make a few changes that were causing some problems as well as added a few codes to attempt to get the bots away from the site. this all SHOULD clear up a lot of the problems i had with over loading the server. i do not want to say that it fixed it completely yet due to the fact that i dont know exactly if it will.
most of the issue was bots and spammers attempting to gain access to the site. this was causing the servers to overload. if the changes block this, or most of it, the pages will be fine again. but, i wont know for sure until a little time has gone by. im going to give it a few weeks before im going to call it fixed.
i do want to thank you all for your patience with me and support.

sorry i did not notify the rancor pit till today, i usually keep most notifications on the facebook group.
since i have been having a lot of issues with the host company i have been using i decided to change hosting to another service that has more knowledge of what they are doing. this process does take a little time in the areas of weeks in a lot of cases since the domain name will need to be transferred over and having the DNS changed (dont worry about the tech garbage). once this is done the site should remain up a lot more based on i should not have the same issues with bots and hacks to the information as i have been. so right now you may be seeing the page go up and down randomly. i do have a way to access the page in another way if you wish to be able to for the time being, but it would require you to edit your host files on your computer. something i do not recommend but if you need to i can give you the information on how to do so by email only.
i must say it does fill me with disgrace on how much of a problem this has been, but i must say that i have been really feeling astonished by how much yall care about the site being up. which means im providing something useful that people appreciate (i have self esteem issues). so i thank you all for your support and thank you for your patience.
like i said about the host file edit feel free to email me at the temp account bsdoblivion@gmail.com for those steps and i will get them to you as soon as i can.

as a side note for the new host and new additions to the site i would like to shout out a hint for some new options im going to be adding. the word "mobile" comes to mind

until next time, watch out for Darth Lucas

Is there a section on the Holocron for structure stats, like the Imperial Garrison and the Rapid Deployment Base?

@crmcneill do you know where the Rapid Deployment Base was featured? I may be able to dig up the stats.

CRMcNeill · Posted: Thu Sep 13, 2012 10:48 pm Post subject:

I checked on the Rapid Deployment Base, and there is actually no set stat-block. Because the base is modular and pre-assembled before deployment, the stats vary based on the mission. The only thing I found for sure is that the individual sections have a Hull of 3D (Walker), but sensors, weaponry and crew capacity all varies depending on the mission. My bad.
