Talk:Praetoria
Revision as of 01:15, 12 July 2012 by imported>Fescu (→Skyraiders?)
Portal Corp. Label
In Unai Kemen's arc (and probably other arcs), he mentions that Praetoria is designated as dimension "Upsilon Beta 9-6" by Portal Corp. Should this be noted on this page? Felderburg 20:12, 24 August 2011 (UTC)

War Walls
Where are there war walls in anything related to Praetoria, instanced or not? War Wall =/= Blue Barriers. —Thirty7 19:23, 26 May 2012 (UTC)
- It honestly wouldn't surprise me if a few of the original Praetorian missions used maps with war walls as an oversight. But even if that's the case, I wouldn't interpret that as meaning Praetoria has war walls; I'd interpret it as a mistake. It frankly wouldn't make sense for them to have them: Primal Earth created them in response to the Rikti War (something the Praetorians did not experience) and the Praetorians have Sonic Fences that serve much the same purpose. -- Sekoia 23:27, 26 May 2012 (UTC)
- Yeah, I suppose some of the older Maria Jenkins instances might have them, but IIRC the vast majority of them do not. I think that the recent revision is a bit misleading, mayhap, hence why I started this section.—Thirty7 00:49, 27 May 2012 (UTC)
- If there are any such missions, I'd be in favor of replacing that sentence with "War Walls do not exist in Praetoria (despite inadvertently appearing in some older Praetorian missions)." However, on further reflection, I wonder if the missions they're thinking of are missions on Primal Earth that feature Praetorian enemies; there are a number of those, so it'd be an easy mistake to make. Unless somebody can point to a specific mission that has War Walls in Praetoria, we should probably revert the sentence back to how it originally was. -- Sekoia 02:43, 27 May 2012 (UTC)
- Praetorian mission tilesets were all made from the ground up, and none of them contain war walls. Nowhere in any of the Praetorian zones are there any war walls as well. The war walls were built to corral the Rikti, who never invaded in Praetorian's alternate timeline. ~ User:Aggelakis/Sig1 05:04, 27 May 2012 (UTC)
- Actually, and this surprised me too, but there are war walls in the modern-day Praetorian content, and I have recently included the mission that I found them in in the rewrite of the section. Fescu 01:10, 12 July 2012 (UTC)
Skyraiders?
Other than being captained by a Durray in both dimensions, do we have any actual indication that the 2nd Imperial Whatevertheheck Division is the Praetorian Sky Raiders? User:Thirty7/Sig 21:08, 5 July 2012 (UTC)
- Yes. This portion was taken from the Primal Colonel Duray's background, "The Joint Command Special Threat Response Battalion (JCSTRB), nicknamed Vigilance, was established in 1995 as the brain-child of General Aarons."
- This portion was taken from the Praetorian Colonel Duray's background, "The field commander of the late General Aarons' Threat Response Battalion, Colonel Virgil Duray is one of the most highly decorated officers from the Hamidon Wars."
- Both were established by General Aarons, and both were called the Threat Response Battalion. Fescu 01:05, 12 July 2012 (UTC)
- I guess I don't see how that translates to a division of the IDF. User:Thirty7/Sig 01:08, 12 July 2012 (UTC)
- Because for the most part they're the same group. This portion was also taken from Praetorian Colonel Duray's background, "Composed entirely of soldiers from the TRB, the 2nd Battalion is arguably just a rename of Duray's former with one exceptional difference. Every soldier in the battalion has been genetically reengineered by Praetor Berry." They started off as their own force, but later became the IDF 2nd Batallion. Sort of like when the Sky Raiders were supposed to become an arm of Vanguard. - Fescu 01:14, 12 July 2012 (UTC)
