>TQ: Was Captain Rex based?
Yes, also he is one of the many favorite clone troopers of mine. Also commander Cody should have been the second clone protagonist.

>>93128752
>TQ

Based? No. Sympathetic sure, but not based. Honestly one big problem with TCW is we don't see many if any Clones that are bad people, which I find hard to believe given who they are cloned from. While it would cause some dissonance seeing Jedi leading armies of bastards, I find it more dissonant that the overwhelming majority of the clones of a hired killer are actually nice good boys.

>>93121885
I can excuse him not wanting to kill his friend, someone he considers his brother. So much happened so fast, he hadn't had time to process it. Now leaving his friend, someone he considers his brother, ON FUCKING FIRE was incredibly fucked up.

What really doesn't make any sense is why he spared him in the Kenobi show. He's had years to process the failures of the Jedi and witnessed the horrors of the Empire. This is supposed to be what convinces him that Anakin is gone and all that remains is Vader. So why the fuck does he spare him this time? From this point on everything Vader does is his fault! Including the deaths of everyone on Alderaan, which is hilarious given all of this started out as him helping Organa.

>>93128866
>why he spared him in the Kenobi show.
Because of Episode IV

Why are you so mean to that anon?

>>93128941
Easy now anon. Also SWT is not a faggot. He is hetero.

>>93128975
That's the thing, though, he doesn't have to just walk away, choosing to spare Vader once again. All they had to do was have Imperial shuttles zip overhead, land, begin deploying Stormtroopers who fire at Obi-Wan forcing him to disengage and flee. That's pretty standard Star Wars right there, right down to hopping in a ship and jumping to lightspeed to escape (something Last Jedi took a massive, unnecessary dump on).

If they're worried about daring to ignore Vader's demand for a 1 on 1 duel, either have an Inquisitor sense Vader needing help or you could even have the Emperor sense Vader's failure and have him send the order. The former could do it hoping to curry favor with Vader (a stupid idea, bu they are pretty stupid) and the latter to piss off Vader and to try to ensure Obi-Wan is captured/killed since the Big Emps doesn't want Jedi Council loose ends.

>>93129766
Bravery, cunning, and legitimate care for their crewmates. Star Wars is a very classic, conventional morality setting, filled with adventure. The best captains will thus be the most heroic captains that have a heart, as well as competency at their job.

>>93129116
>>93128975
Hell, they could have had Vader calling down turbofire lasers on his position, especially if they do the whole, "But sir, you'll be in the fire zone," bit. Obi-Wan has to disengage and Vader gets some badass cred back for sheer ballsiness. I don't see how that could endanger the, "When I left you, I was but the learner. Now I am the master," line since turbolaser barrage isn't a Force technique. Anyone can do it. Obi-Wan still would have won the duel, Vader would have just saved his own crispy banconated ass.

>>93130205
I don't remember clone wars being about endless fetch quests, fighting blaster-proof monsters every other week, and babysitting an 8-year-old kiwi with the thickest accent in the galaxy.

>>93129812
The rulebooks are terrible at laying out information and Rebellion in the Rim is better than Corellia but both add new aces and stuff. You have smaller fleets (200pts) so for lower play counts need to control multiple ones. From what I remember some rules felt fiddly but upgrading and stuff felt fun.

>>93128752
>Was Captain Rex based?
pretty based. At first was kind of wary of him not actually being Alpha-17 as was originally planned, but, like Ahsoka proved himself to be a good character. The Umbara arc really solidified my like for this character.

I like to headcanon that he was in AotC as the trooper that fell off with Padme and got a proper rank up for escorting her with his life.

>>93128851
It's a nature vs. nuture thing.
I'm sure some of Jango's personality came from his upbringing.
Clones were raised in a nice, safe place with lots of control and structure in their lives. A good deal of their training was focused on obedience. That they turned out to be generally more chill than Jango is no surprise at all.
Also I don't see what that has to do with him being based or not.

>>93128752
>Was Captain Rex based?
No, he felt like an OC in the same way as Ahsoka did and in a way he was never able to overcome. He was the super special clone that never appeared in the movie and took all the focus away from other Clone Commaders who are more interesting because you see them actually commit Order 66. And while Ahsoka has serious character growth and development in Clone Wars (most of which was tossed out the window in everything Rebels and after) Rex had nothing.

He wasn't all that special. He was just another clone. Anakin's second in command, in the same way Cody was Obi-Wan's second in command.

Movie never gave us Anakin's own Cody. So Lucas created him for the series.
>Rex had nothing.
Why the fuck are you lying, retard? He had an entire character arc going from a perfect, exemplary, obedient soldier, who was more concerned with ephemeral concepts of duty, to an actual thinking human being, who learned to value personal relationships and loyalty.

Rex is quite possibly the best character in Star Wars. The only clone more based was fives, but then again, Rex did spend the rest of his life trying to make up for how he failed Fives.

Gain the Advantage puts you behind the target, that's the way it's meant to work, it emulates cinematic dogfighting and gives fighter pilots a way to meaningfully defend themselves because FFG can't handle evasion based defense without massive investment. And, what EXACTLY is the problem with having it work that way? Why object to this take at all? Because you're so addicted to complaining that the idea something you hate isn't as bad as you thought is intolerable?

I'll call it like it is, the Sequels do have some cool names. I'd put them on par with Lucas Era 'Confederacy of Independent Systems' as cool names. Just, a shame they didn't really have much meaning behind them.

Really? Well he was in the beginning. The early seasons of TCW, desu.

>>93134025
"Confederacy of Independent Systems" tells you exactly what it is. A separatist movement, probably a very bureaucratic one, and obviously to an American audience "confederacy" is a loaded word.

First Order, Final Order, Knights of Ren*, and Sith Eternal don't do that. (*Knights of Ren kinda does, in that you'd imagine it to be an order of Knights like the knights of the Round Table or something; except that they... actually aren't that?)

Either its a new Sith cult that was specifically isolated to Exegol, and Sidious picked them up to be his new goons, or its the name of the Banite Sith, but I find the latter unlikely.

Its because the new show contradicts him. The Sith being fucking gone for a thousand years is supposed to be a big deal because it explains the jedi being as sloppy as they were during the clone wars or something.

I wish Anakin never fell to the Darkside, Windu executing Sidious and order 66 was never activated.

>>93135017
Not really. All it does is add a new depth to the line. In the show right now it's blatantly stated that they need to hide this shit from the council or risk the Senate and the Jedi's political enemies getting involved. In the task for meeting when he's there it's once again reiterated. In TPM he's the first person to interject and say Qui Gon's talking bullshit and that Sith aren't real even though Qui Gon describes the exact one-for-one description of a Sith Lord, and it eventually gets Qui Gon killed because they don't send him back to Naboo with any reinforcements.
It adds a whole new layer, maybe he denied Qui Gon's claims so quickly because he wanted to cover for himself and the rest of the members of that task force all those years ago, the one that kept it hidden from the Jedi Council. Adds depth to an otherwise literal meme character. Also further showcases the corruption of the Jedi Order during that era and why they needed to fall.

>>93134966
Wasn’t he?

>>93135017
yes, another contradiction that has been happening for years. Force healing in TROS, fucking Obi-Wan as a show, anyone being able to use the force and be a Jedi in Ahsoka, while being contradicted in a show coming out at basically the same time. People choose fucking conehead to be the thing they chimp out over? They will just say "achtually he's not a sith" or just roll with it.

>Its because the new show contradicts him. The Sith being fucking gone for a thousand years is supposed to be a big deal beca
For one thing they never mention the word Sith in Acolyte and not at that meeting with Ki-Adi-Mundi, they just assume it's a splinter order/Dark Jedi type deal. And as for his age there was never any G-canon confirmation on how old him or most of the alien Jedi were in the films or Clone Wars. Canon has always been known to take or leave details from the EU since Lucas was in charge. Like when he revived Eeth Koth after a visual dictionary said he was shot down in a gunship on Geonosis.

But if you want to invoke the EU, Yoda even fought Dark Jedi in one of the Tales comics. And it's not like fallen Jedi aren't alluded to being a thing given the Citadel in Clone Wars was said to have been created in 522 BBY during the great peace. So even in G-canon the existence of fallen Jedi after the Sith's supposed extinction is a thing, and it warranted the Jedi building an actual prison to hold them.

Anyway Qui-Gon was smart enough to pick up on Maul's fighting style not being Jedi. In the case of Mae it might be that the Sith is purposely training her in a way that won't make it obvious she's a Sith. Darth zipper isn't giving her all the important lessons yet. Which actually gets brought up again in Clone Wars with Ventress being Dooku's acolyte. Luminara tells her she recognizes the fighting style of Dooku; a former Jedi, albeit sloppier, not a true Sith. But also I imagine discovering Anakin and believing he was the chosen one was a factor in Jinn's conclusion too given the prophecy is about destroying the Sith, and suddenly this red sabered guy shows up as him and Anakin are leaving Tatooine. Plus Qui-Gon had made contact with the Priestesses prior to this according to TCW, so he was probably aware that the Sith would return. He had outside knowledge and visions. The Jedi in Acolyte don't. They're very skeptical.

I'll explain the issue.
>Old lore has Ki-Adi-Mundi's birthdate not for another 40 years so the Acolyte contradicts lore as he is already alive and a Jedi.
>I'm pretty sure his old birthdate was on some random CDROM so who cares (pic related).
>Usual suspects have been complaining it breaks lore because of this.
>Therefore this represents how Disney is dumb and bad (as if we needed another reason).
>Enter Wookieepedia, which everyone hates because it is a shit resource and politically bias. (E.g. trans friendly policies of its host Fandom or dumb shit like the Breast debacle.)
>Wookieepedia rushed to edit the Ki-Adi-Mundi page to fit the Acolyte.
>Star Wars Theory mentioned this on a stream and suddenly a bunch of people flooded the Wook trying to change things.
>Wook more or less tweeted that SWT was responsible for the barrage of hate their way.
>SWT claimed he would sue (he won't) because they had defamed him.
So the controversy is over a fucking birthday that never really mattered to begin with. Acolyte is shit and there is plenty of stuff to complain about but this isn't one of them.

>>93135017
We went over that before the show came out and a bunch of people complained already that the whole show contradicts lore but the Sith were obviously still around doing shit.

>>93135781
I think the series will most likely end with the middle management council covering up what happened or with all the Jedi on that mission dead it just becomes a cold case. They're already setting that sort of thing up with how reluctant they all are to share their findings with the High Council let alone the senate for fear of the Jedi's reputation being tarnished. Which is fair because Dooku going rogue did put a stain on the Jedi's reputation in the Clone Wars and contributed to that anti-Jedi sentiment and the conspiracy that they orchestrated the war as a power grab.

Sol is probably the only one who will realise "egads, it is a Sith" and the writing is on the wall for him to die, probably saving Mae and Osha to make up for whatever happened back in the past.

>>93135854
Depends if any of them know enough about the Sith to come to that conclusion unless Darth zipper is confident enough to spill the beans because they're all going to die anyway. The order has Sith/dark side experts but I like the idea that the Sith purposely targeted some of those because they'd be potential threats, like what happened with Sifo Dyas.

The whole thing has been manufactured and amplified by grifter youtube channels and influencers that profit from hateclicks. Notice how every week there's some new talking point about the Acolyte that usually centers around a dumb nitpick like fire in space or Mundi's age. Neither of which contradict George's canon. The whole twin conception thing is more controversial, but the outrage surrounding the other episodes feels so forced. I feel like rarely see any legitimate criticisms of the show beyond ranting about woke or nebulous claims of bad writing and acting with no elaboration. And I have issues with the show but it just feels like most of the discussion around it is incoherent ranting about inconsequential details or external politics.

There's also the fact that they're not perfect clones of Fett. They've been genetically modified to be less independent and more obedient. "Totally obedient, taking any order without question," as Lama Su said. Yes, I'm still annoyed about the damn chips.

>>93130859
I feel this is a broader cultural problem. Stems from the same place as people not wanting to talk about politics. Which I should remind people that Andor was INCREDIBLY political.

But I think in general people want to be right without putting in the mental legwork of understanding WHY they are right. Dialogue scenes that you mentioned like those are characters with opposing viewpoints arguing WHY their viewpoints are correct, and stem from their beliefs. However, people nowadays tend to avoid arguing, either because they're worried they'll offend the other person by pointing out they're wrong and they'll resort to anger rather than admitting that they're wrong or don't know something, or because they again, don't want to be wrong and don't want to risk someone popping their echo-chamber bubble we have nowadays.

The people who wrote a lot of the clone-episodes were from military families and so were used to tackling a lot of the huge real-world themes that those experiences entail, and I think came from a place where they understood a lot of different angles of that experience and the drama that entails from those different sides as well as the reasoning people have. And with the author of Andor, he's written a ton of spy thrillers and seems to have been giving a lot of thought to the nature of democracy and autocracy and was able to write a story with those themes in a serious manner- and he was specifically examining both why people won't automatically sign up for the Rebellion, but also why they need to.

And I feel like most writers in hollywoods are just hacks, and I mean that apolitically. So the themes they delve into tend to often be pretty shallow.

>>93135937
Only real critique I can give is that it's a slow burn. Like Andor better, Kenobi felt like it had more whimsy (ironically). Book of Boba Fett's flashbacks were way more fun (the Tusken Raider stuff). None of that makes Acolyte bad of course.

But yeah- I call it the outrage industry. I doubt most of these people even have genuine political convictions, cause whenever they fail to make something bomb they just claim it as their own, they recently did this with the Fallout show claiming it was woke and gonna bomb (to be fair I also thought it was gonna bomb but because it was done by the same people who made the Halo show) and now that it's a cultural phenomena they're claiming that it's because it was secretly made by conservatives. Despite, you know, the central theme of the show being about how corporatocracy is evil (and I noticed, ignored the part of the lore about the literal shadow government that was prepared to have 90% of the population die off in a nuclear war).

>>93136110
Many dialogue scenes are frankly, flat and boring. I am not saying they need explosions but how they are shot is important and any tension between the characters is a form of action in itself. People like Luthen in Andor because there is some underlying things going on in the peformance, the music and how it is shot. That might not be much but it is something.

Also reading comic books I have noticed some of the flattest dialogue ever when it comes to political talking points too and none of the characters feel like they are in that situation. It always feels like a sermon and not two people talking. It is very you talk, I talk, a result of years of communicating online making writers feel like human beings converse like that. When we don't.

>>93135937
>The whole thing has been manufactured and amplified by grifter youtube channels and influencers that profit from hateclicks.
It doesn't help when your main actress does a disstrack on instagram against the haters that is very political with cringe dancing.

>>93136110
>Which I should remind people that Andor was INCREDIBLY political.
Was it? Mostly it was about police state doing police state things and some people didn't like it.

>>93136142
>Only real critique I can give is that it's a slow burn.
I mean there are plenty of critiques one could make, most of the characters feel boring without enough characterisation. The show lacks a lot of underlying tension and is prone to wheel spinning. The problem of streaming tv not building individual episodes correctly, so it moves at both a fast pace in revealing stuff that also contradictorily feels weirdly slow at getting anywhere in the plot. Some of the witch dialogue could have been better (people hate women using the force yet we have female Jedi masters). Structurily how the show has been set up too is a big one and I think a core issue for why the show is fundamentally meh. Many scenes have felt more like trailer bait than anything.

Even if its twists somehow come together I don't see it overcoming these faults, it is still unsatisfying viewing. But of course most people want to talk "lore issues" or culture wars.

I wish The Acolyte never existed in the first place. Also Ki-Adi Mundi should have never appeared in the Acolyte.

I have no strong feelings about it either way but if any prequel Jedi were going to appear in Acolyte besides the ones that were already revealed as being old in High Republic like Oppo and Yarael, it should've been Plo and Luminara. He's wise and implied to be like 300 in the Clone Wars tie-in comic by Henry Gilroy and Luminara is complacent af so her age making her a stick in the mud like Vernestra would work. Hell why isn't she Vernestra's padawan? Mirialans train each other.

What I find funny about the Acolyte is that its a High Republic show, but weren't the Nihil supposed to be the bad guys of that era? I remember the HR being advertised as "Who do the Jedi fight if there are no Sith around?!?!" and the answer was supposed to be the Nihil. But lo and behold, the Acolyte fell back to Sith/Dark Jedi being the bad guy once again.

But on the galactic stage how many of these long-lived species are getting heavily involved in massive wars? Humans make up a large chunk of the population. And other common species like Twi'leks and Rodians have the same lifespan as humans pretty much. Now Wookiees can live for over 400 years and Pau'ans can live up to 700 years in both legends and canon. So long-lived aliens in George's films is nothing crazy but among the Jedi Wookiees are said to be rare and Pau'ans seem more isolationist.

In Ki-Adi-Mundi's case, he clearly aged in the century between Acolyte and Phantom Menace with his hair turning white implying he's not THAT ancient, unless for whatever reason they live centuries and hit the wall at a certain point rapidly ageing. But if I had to take a guess, Cereans having two hearts means they only live double that of an average human so 180-200 years. He's been around but he's no Yoda. Plus he's not in the High Republic books/comics that take place around 200-300 BBY.

The Acolyte's writers didn't read any of that boring-ass lore shit, they had a statemenrt to make and an agenda to push.
And when teh reply to any and all criticism is literally 'shut up you racists nerds' tthe result is a complete shitshow like what we see unfoolding, which is a vaguely Star Wars looking show tthat has nothing to do with Star Wars, ignores Star Wars lore, breaks teh background universe's established rules and coherency while insulting the people who used to be Star Wars fans.

The real tragedy is that these people actually do not understand what tehy doing wrong.
Or, alternatively, they actually do know what tehy'ee doing and deliberately destroy the franchise for some political objective.

The witches in Acolyte seem to have their roots in the Path of the Open Hand cult who're basically the true big bad of the High Republic series and founded the Nihil. So there's a bit of a connection that era in the show but it's not acknowledged outside of them being hunted, nor is it very clear if the Jedi know the witches are connected to that religion or who was hunting them. Reminds me of how Jedi Survivor had the Bedlam Raiders be an offshoot/descendants of the Nihil though.

I get the point about these species not having an influence still doesn't really help the overall issue. Even the Acolyte mentions stuff like R2 units being used for outer ship repair. The star wars galaxy is just completely stagnant and putting these huge numbers on things don't help that impression much. I dunno, it just begins to cheapen things when your big bad guy plans don't really change the galaxy that much overall. It's hundreds of years of nothing changing much.

I think Disney Lucasfilm intentionally set the show closer to the prequels at the tail end of the High Republic era so it wouldn't be a huge departure from the established aesthetic. But then High Republic isn't too far removed either. We don't know how things will look heading further back into the timeline. But I hope it is less stagnant and there are noticeable differences in the technology seeing as outside of Tales of the Jedi I think Legends did a poor job of that.

Oh yeah fully agree with that it drives me crazy how the architecture is always derivative of Tatooine/has to look "Star Warsy" and the biomes are just Earth with nothing really exotic or unique about them. It's one of my biggest frustrations with Disney Star Wars.

You look at the prequels or Clone Wars and see how much variety there is with the worlds. Just focusing on ROTS you've got Kashyyyk, Utapau and Mustafar as key locales and look how they all have very distinct architecture and environments. You just don't get anything like that in current SW or it's extremely rare.

I'll admit Ueda's architecture looked kind of unique but you barely see that world. Just inside the bar with Carrie-Anne Moss dies.

>>93137841
I (probably wrongly) blame Bioware for the EU's tech stagnation over thousands of years. Despite taking place 50 years after Tales, KOTOR looks a lot closer to the prequels in its aesthetics. That being said I always liked KOTOR's art design, I just feel like it would've fit closer to the movies in time than 4000 years prior.

I feel like with their aesthetics KOTOR and SWTOR should've been circa 2000 BBY in the place of the New Sith Wars on the EU timeline. The problem is the Old Sith Wars not being that far removed from the Old Republic era. The technology in those comics looks like it belongs somewhere closer to Dawn of the Jedi not the prequels.

I'm curious how canon will differentiate the Old Republic from the prequels and High Republic visually. I mean in the context of the OT the Old Republic was the one we saw in the prequels, and High Republic shows it at it's zenith even more. So how can you make the Old Republic prior to the rise and fall of the Sith Empire that different?

>>93136973
I wouldn't say nothing changes. Before those 1000 years of peace, there was a massive era where wars between Jedi and Sith were very, very commonplace. Jedi and Sith feudal lords squaring off against each other. Then before that, you had a Sith Empire vs. Republic Cold War. Pius Dea theocracy for thousands of years. There's a lot of changes, the 'Old Republic' isn't the same as the post-Ruusan Republic, which isn't the same as the SWTOR/KOTOR Old Republic, nor the Pius Dea Republic.

So no, 25 years of Palpatine's Empire isn't all that irrelevant. Even during the 1000 years of peace, you had things like the rise of megacorps like the Trade Federation, which I would've 100% preferred Weed Republic and Acolyte to explore, but nah, gotta stick to Sith and Not!Sith.

And that's without saying that those people that live on for hundreds to thousands of years would be very small in number. Your average bumpkin on Tatooine probably lives up to 90-100 years at best still, for the Core I could figure something around the 150-170 bracket, for the rich.

>>93137790
I don't see a problem with this. Fuck OT Purists, the OT should just be a blip in the radar at best.

So I'm going to be running a Clone Wars campaign soon in FFG, but the proposed characters have me perplexed. Two people want to play a master and apprentice, and the other two wants to play clone commandos, but the campaign starts at the Battle of Geonosis, so I'm not sure how much XP to give them to start with, especially the Jedi.

Well yeah no shit anon, no one is saying everything is ruined or anything, it is a nitpick at most. Just something that Old Republic and lore doesn't really think about, change over time. Of course that was never the focus and it is just a fantasy. It just feels silly though sometimes that nothing changed over a long time.

I do like that it seems they're on the cusp of changing from the white robes to the prequels brown robes.

I think fashion is a very useful tool in helping flesh out time-periods and factions, showing us how something evolves over time. Probably the best example in Star Wars is seeing the evolution in design from the Mandalorian armor to the Clone Trooper armor to the Stormtrooper armor.

Expand.

I think we sort of have two Disney Era's. There's the Sequels, which I think we can all agree get worse with each one, plus the two spinoffs (Rogue One is generally liked and Solo is a bit more controversial but far from the worst).

And now we're in the Disney+ era. And I'd say that's been an improvement. But I'd also say quality is all over the place- though I don't think anything that's been put out is straight up bad (yeah you heard me right).

I think almost anyone will say the Prequels are better then the Sequels, but I think it's hard to compare the Prequels to the Disney+ era given it's a different type of production.

B1s aren't really supposed to do more than chip damage in most cases.
They serve several other purposes: forcing the enemy to spend their activations before you activate your big hitters, order control, both types of medbots, capping objectives, and finally handing out aim/dodge/observe tokens to more important units.

If you *really* want them to do damage, there are three approaches:
E5s to get that 1 critical through the cover on a consistent basis
E60r for some mediocore impact hits, ideally supported by aims.
Rad cannon + viper if you want a memey close range brawler type with poison tokens.

B2s are good yeah, but the optimal build (T series + B2HA) is like almost three times as expensive as a naked b1 unit. Not the same battlefield role.

>>93140352
>t. Gen X tranny still mad about Jar jar

>>93140722
Fair. yeah mine are set up with the rad cannon. When my buddy plays the army he gets 9 hits out of 11 dice, and when I play it I get like 2. So it's just the dice dooming me.
Yeah I never really thought of that, the fact that they don't really fill the same role. Just troops are troops to me you know. But it gives me something to think about, thanks.

>>93140822
Yeah, separatists don't really have your standard "troops" archetype of the other factions' rebel veterans/stormtroopers/Phase 1s.
You can use Pyke mercs like that, but that's not the point of playing seps, is it?

On the topic of b2s, think of them as a cockroach type of unit. With HA, their shots remain effective and dangerous as long as the heavy weapon lives. They are basically impossible to one tap, and can take 7 wounds without being reduced to a single model objective monkey.

They also play pretty well with the bugs, as neither unit requires an order.

>>93140967
yeah, well my B1s were all kitted out with the binos and stuff to give other units dodge and aim tokens if their fire was going to be minimal or useless. I think I have a B2 heavy list down for 800 points, obviously at higher points B1s will have a lot more room to be included in the list.
I just love the little roger rogers though, and they came with the starting set so I was sorta leaning more towards them initially. But since my list runs Kraken, and Magna guard, I've also shifted my BXs to being melee oriented, since melee seems objectively stronger then shooting, since it can tie up a unit depending on if it's acted or not they can't get shot at for a full turn almost.
Also I may not be able to roll shooting or white save dice to save my B1s or droidekas, but my melee dice were hot today.

>>93140352
I know it's bait, but I'm responding so 5/10.

Most of the Disney stuff is so bad that it has made people ignore or excuse a lot of the problems with the Prequels and EU, of which there are MANY. It annoys me, but I understand it, because with a handful of exceptions the Disney stuff has been so bad that you want to circle the wagons around the PT and EU, because there were at least SOME good stories/material/ideas there.

To a degree, it’s seems they have been backsliding pretty badly ever since the hit that was Mandolarian season one (I personally blame the suits but I can’t quite chalk up every bad thing in the series to them, just most).

Booking gigs, dealing with shady agents and hucksters and, most importantly, tracking our finances as we have to calculate if the gig we get on one planet is worth the cost of travel there and back and all the band's other bills that need to be paid. Not the least of which would be Bill, our manager, and Bill the parole officer for our drummer.

What would be some interesting twists and complications to add to a mission centered around tracking force sensitives to recruit?

>>93146686
Another group coming to take the children away, posing as Jedi.

The kid's Force powers become worshipped by their primitive society

The parents were already (non-Force sensitive) Sith worshippers and want to raise the kid in the Sith way.

The kid is royalty or the heir of a prominent noble family.

>>93146865
Thank you.

How often does the Empire have open air pro Empire preachers on the streets to proclaim those that don't pledge their loyalty to Palpatine?

>>93146686
The recruit is extremely mentally ill.

The recruit is being hunted by witch hunters for demonstrating unholy powers.

The recruit severely hurt someone (by accident) with their powers, and doesn't want to touch them again.

Another group of Force users arrives to recruit the candidate.

There is no recruit. The whole thing is a trap.

>>93146686
Murder mystery. Either:

1. The recruit is taking part in a murder mystery weekend, and the only way to reach them is by infiltrating the game.

2. The recruit, the recruiters, and a bunch of others are stranded somewhere . . .and people start dying.

3. The recruiting team and several promising candidates get stranded . . .and the recruits start being murdered. All the evidence points to someone in the group.

Whose bright idea was it to not include building instructions in Legion models? Why do I have to go to their dumb site to look for instructions.

Clone armor still looks the best out of all of them because they just had to design one set for their race of genetically engineered supersoldiers... Stormtroopers they had to accommodate for the average joe and for the First Order their standards were even lower so it had to be able to fit any malnourished orphan that they found.

For some time now I’ve head canon’ed the Cutlass as the main starfighter of the Commerce Guild. It makes sense since it is a SoroSuub product and SS itself was a part of the Guild, and for the largely patrol oriented missions they seem to have both before and during the CW the Cutlass would make a perfect patrol craft.

Anyway good taste, I just wish that it had a faster atmospheric speed than 900 kilometres per hour (fucking writers)

>>93142018
>They conscript the NEETs, thus the need for a thicker armor.
They conscript kids and train them for decades
If their troopers are fat, it's the First Order dieticians' fault

>>93146916

It depends. Having someone shouting on a street corner isn't going to generally work as it'll annoy people going about their business. You'd be more likely to see pro-New Order rallies and events held, with local events supported & subtly co-opted to ensure they don't cause trouble.

I just found out that the High Republic has a widespread military confrontation with the Hutts during the Nihl’s short-lived state.
Jedi and Republican Peacekeepers in their dumb 70s space-gear assisting colourful local forces against colourful mercenary/gang/Hutt staples.
And it’s brushed over in like an issue.
The Hutts find their military gains in adjoining sectors are being whittled away because they didn’t expect to encounter so much opposition or for the Republic to react so forcefully while the Nihl had weakened their hold on the Outer Rim.

Early 2000s EU was shit, but it served as a counterpooint to the awful mess of the first two PT movies.

>>93150148
that's a pretty reasonable headcanon imo, iirc the wook entry states that large quantities of them were built and sold everywhere before getting shut down, so at the very least it's like the situation with the Headhunter, where everyone and their brother at the very least knows a good secondhand market for mothballed. between that and the fact that there were 9 whole iterations of it in the model line over their history, they had to have kept quite a few for their own purposes

>>93152112
The Clone Wars was planning on reintroducing the Vong and make force powers apply to them. I think if they tone down on the OP thing and just make their strength being "another galactic scale cvilization" that would be fine. The biotech is cool and gives them a neat alien aesthetic, you don't need to make it super speshal and unstoppable biotech

>>93152662
Yeah, I know. But to be frank I would have preferred the TCW-ed Vong plot to be the Sequel Trilogy.
Just make them less OP than tehy were in the EU, and use them as a New Biig Bad that forces the NR and Imp Remnants to work together.

>>93152662
desu the Vong being force users that manipulate it in a unique way that's alien to Jedi and Sith similar to the Nightsisters would've fit really well with them using living technology. Have it so they're in perfect symbiosis with the living force of their planet and their worldships were all grown from that. Instead of them being cut off from the force. Personally I thought maybe they could've introduced the Vong in the galaxy where Peridea is in Ahsoka. If that's a more ancient place where the force is wielded more primitively and like magic. I doubt that's the case now but yeah I could definitely see a version of the Vong working in canon. We have the Drengir who're dark side plants already so the idea of the dark side in nature being a major threat in canon isn't new.

>>93153206
The idea of an army of creatures bioengineered and grown with dark side sorcery would be very kino

Vong were a mistake the first time around. Toning down their faggotry would only improve them.
Keeping them deleted from the canon is still best.

>>93154352
Vong having an acid-spitting sword-whip-staff that can stop a lightsaber is more than enough to make them an extremely dangerous faction, all the rest of their "ackshully better" BS is just nonsense.

I'm glad we've grown enough to admit the vong were always retarded
