Well, if putting in your CD is too painful, you can try this [[http://underground.bananachan.net/jka_mini.iso|mini ISO]]. But if you see issues, it might be worth trying without! ===== Movie Battles Strategy ===== * Join the largest team. * Join the winning team. * If the largest team is not the winning team, feel free to encourage others to join the winning team until it is the largest. * Use reinforcements. * If someone calls you a name, kill them regardless of team affiliation. * You can never have enough lightsabers on your team. The other classes are just for show. * If you do happen to venture to other classes, bounty hunters are a good place to start. Thermal detonators and poison darts are to be used haphazardly. * Rocket jumping (firing your rocket(s) at the ground) is effective, try it out! * Taunt often. ===== Movie Battles Memories ===== This section is for screenshots/movies/other pieces of nostalgia from past MBII sessions with the U. * [[https://multitap.pw/mbii/games.log|A humongous server log of past MBII games!]] * Vintage footage: http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x28bmg_mbiv-0002-june-9-2007_news * Ancient footage: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7vl4FcbaK7w * Yup, more old footage: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z62QrxLg3Ew
