We had a long running game that ended about a month ago. I was playing as a bokkan Jedi during the reign of the Empire who, naively, wanted to believe the best of everyone. This extended to his crew, one of which was an IG Lancer droid.

This droid had been wiped and modified a lot since his creation. He had been wiped just before my character found him, invited him to join the crew, and gave him the very creative name Lancer. He's a bit of a weirdo, but tried to be a team player.

We'd been chasing our big bad, a mad scientist type that acted as a foil to my Jedi, who had a droid revolutionary lieutenant. This lieutenant made a secret pitch to Lancer tell him everything about his past, and did so in the middle of our crew fighting a bunch of droids. Lancer, curious about his past and sympathetic to the scrap heap, took the deal and fucked off from the game.

The rest of the crew insisted he'd gone traitor. I insisted he was just finding his own way; he just wanted to know who he is. Meanwhile, this chase across the galaxy is driving my Jedi is getting closer to the edge.

I spent so much effort on not killing anyone, against the coaching of every mentor I'd had. But this foil posed a galactic threat. I know that if I didn't end it there, no one would. I had to do it. It had to be me. It had to be.

Just before the final conflict, a very important mini boss showed up... with Lancer in tow. The mini boss was for another character. I squared off with Lancer. I tried to talk to him.

He grabbed his blaster.

I tried to remind him who he is.

He drew his blaster.

I warned him to stop.

He leveled it at me.

I only meant to disarm, but enough Threats rolled can foil any plan. I sliced through his limb and his center frame. I must have hit something important because he went out. His blaster hit the ground and misfired. It was set to stun.

I panicked, grabbed him and took him with me. We had to run onto our ship for a quick bounce to the final confrontation.

I spent that time in our workshop trying to get him powered again. When he activated he asked me who I was. He had been wiped again. Because it all happened so fast, I don't know if for sure I did it, or it was all a trick by the mini boss.

We had to keep moving once we hit the area of the end game. I took my moment and told him his name was Lancer, that he was my friend and that this was the next chapter of his story.

I then made that gif, in memoriam.

That story took two posts, so I'll share a meta thing that made me sad.

I was running Beyond the Rim, where the crew searches for a lost "treasure ship" of the CIS. When they find it, the crew has gone full Gilligan's Island but with high levels of paranoia. The guy in charge of the survivors is a bald-headed, scar-faced sonnova bitch, but is ultimately a good guy looking out for his people.

However, one of my players gets it in their mind that because they're playing a Lepi, they must be Bugs Bunny. After the guy in charge is rude once, he declares "of course you know, this means war."

It doesn't because I try to sell how this hard ass isn't a bad guy at all, but the Lepi never sees it that way.

The final session was kinda rough for the Lepi; not much for a medic to do in a capital ship battle. The big bad of the game also got away, so the player was seething a little bit. It was the finale, and I didn't know how to cheer them up. Except actually I did, I just didn't want to do it.

I turned to another player who got to peak behind the curtain sometimes and asked, "should I give them what they want?"

They thought about it for a moment, and said "yeah."

So, I had the hard ass shoot some guy, acting wildly out of character and made it clear he was now a The Villain. The Lepi immediately lit up, kicked him into space and the unmentioned mando blew him up with a rocket. The table loved it.

I'm happy they enjoyed it, but man I really wanted them to like that guy.

It sounds bad until you realize that you get a heated suit with a 2 week battery life. Most polar planets that are worth fighting on aren't going to be quite as cold as Hoth either, so you're probably going to be operating in Alaska more often then you are Antarctica.

Literally THE WORST.
>By the year 1 BBY, nearly twenty years since Emperor Palpatine's rise to power was completed, the scout troopers were a notoriously disruptive factor throughout the entire Stormtrooper Corps. Various reports indicated that there was extreme difficulty in integrating scout troopers with other types of Imperial soldiers. In most cases, the cause of the friction was almost entirely on the side of the scouts, who made a sport out of being as belligerent and insufferable as possible. Although the scout troopers shared a fierce sense of camaraderie with each other, they made a habit of treating everyone else of equal or lower rank as inferiors.
>A platoon of scout troopers from the 439th Legion personified the infamy of their class's reputation throughout the military. Part of the way they entertained themselves was by riding their speeder bikes through the halls of their base on Byss in the late hours of the night, much to the fury of stormtroopers and other non-scout soldiers who were suddenly wakened by the loud roar of the speeder bikes. The enmity between the scout troopers and their "comrades" was so intense, officers were forced to segregate them from the rest of their military units.

They ruin everything around them and have no discipline. They're a disappointment to everything that stormtroopers are supposed to showcase in discipline and attitude.

I just don't understand why it was they were retreading ground that had already been covered by that point.
Shit just got wrapped up with the prequels, you would think they would've done a show like Rebels and explored the era between the OT and PT. It would've made more sense.

>>94967589
Because Lucas wanted to make a show about Clone Wars? To him there was no retread. Because he never got to tell that story until he made the show. Because he skipped Clone Wars in the movies, and then he got the opportunity to do it, once he was finished with Anakin's story in the movies.
>you would think they would've done a show like Rebels and explored the era between the OT and PT.
Live-action Underworld show was just that and it was also in development.

We've been over this, but Genndywars was strictly a hype-generation machine. There's hardly a story to it, especially in the earliest episodes. That one anon several threads ago put it best: a series of vignettes in Genndy's distinctive artstyle, featuring all his favorite tropes, with a SW coat of paint. You can like some of the stuff in it, because the whole point is to be cool, but there was never a prayer of that being the one true canon of what the Clone Wars looked like. TCW is always what Lucas envisioned that era to look like.

>>94967669
George didn't make Genndywars. Genndywars was never canon.
George made The Clone Wars to tell his story.

>>94967669
>Well, that was pretty stupid of him to waste all that time and money with a show that got cancelled
What?
>and not making the thing that made more sense to make in the first place.
What thing? Underworld? He was making it. It just turned out to be way too expensive to pull off for the things that he wanted, and the technology was simply not there yet for it to be sustainable. It just turned out to be impossible at the time. Clone Wars was pennies compared to Clone Wars. It was said that one episode of Underworld would have cost like an entire season of Clone Wars. It was just impossible.
>He also already covered the clone wars with Genndy.
He didn't. That was Genndy's interpretation, that didn't follow Lucas' SW mythology as he said, and his series was just an experiment to see if there was a market for Star Wars in animation. It was a collection of extremely short action vignettes with barely any narrative, that run in the ad segment on Cartoon Network. In fact, it was conceived mostly as a Hasbro new toy line advertisement, according to Genndy himself. Lucas wanted to actually cover Clone Wars, cover it himself, by making a fully fledged dramatic animated television series. Because he didn't get to do it. Because it wasn't covered properly on-screen. He had to skip over it in the movies. And now he could. Why wouldn't he? He wanted to create his own series about the thing that he'd come up with in the first place, with the characters that he created, and was obviously very invested into and liked very much. That made perfect sense to him. He had to skip Clone Wars, and now he can fill in that missing blank and tell them for the first time. He had all the right to do it. Not that hard to understand.

You did ask a question. In fact multiple questions, second one being implied in here:

Meaning, you are wondering, why didn't they? Both were answered to you. But you are not interested in any answers, as evident. You have made up your mind already, you have made up a story in your head to justify your biases, and you have high enough of an ego to think you are right at all times.

An Old Republic era campaign should be small stakes not only because the conflict was characterized as an attrition heavy hell. But because conquering or saving the galaxy is too big of an objective.

>>94969744
The Brotherhood of Darkness Bane belonged to before the Rule of 2 was already a successor to Vitiate's Sith Empire, IIRC. I never read the whole thing but it was a purposefully "equalitarian" Sith organization that wanted to prevent anyone from being too powerful and creating solid hierarchies. If I had to guess it probably evolved out of the Dark Council wanting to prevent another Baras after Vitiate got BTFO (for like the 3rd or 4th time so far).

That the high reoublic is that period between the Ruusan Reformations and the Prequels. Golden Age of the Republic is just the Legends name for the High Republic and you get there by clicking on the "Legends" button on the High Republic page of the Wookiepedia. And this name was created before The Rat acquired SW and wanted to segregate their Canon and the EU.

What hunk of junk light freighter would you choose if you were a independent space transporter?
For me it would have to be the YG-4210. Sure she's a bot long in the tooth but you can find parts for 'em almost everywhere that isn't a complete backwater planet, she's got decent speed both sublight and hyperdrive, enough offensive hardware to dissuade most two-bit pirates and individual modules are as close to plug-and-go as you can get with a light freighter.

>>94970506
Is that the Naga Sadow shit? I heard something about that invasion of Croissant involving beasts made with Sith Alchemy, but I never read anything from the period directly.

Gendywars are superior to clone wars simply because there is no Ahsoka there.
It nicely fill the gap between ep 2 and ep 3. Meanwhile tcw, you know Anakin had padawan who left jedi order after being falsely accused of terrorism, she's super immportant, also Maul somehow is alive but Jedi Council straight up ignore Sith Lord they know where he is, also none of this is ever mentioned or relevant in ep 3.

It's always interested me that Ahsoka may have existed as early as 2004. And we know that she was even going to be Ashla from AOTC at one point. But I do agree at the very least it's not her story and if you're telling the Clone War in broad strokes it's easier to skip over that rather than start introducing more characters into the mix like her and a resurrected Maul, especially when she never made it into ROTS anyway. That doesn't actually add anything to the overall saga. I mean there's stuff in TCW which I think refined and enhanced aspects of the prequels but nothing was crucial. If Lucas had added her to his special editions or ROTS edit it would've been a different story.

In a vacuum Genndywars compliments the films fine. The Clone Wars tries to achieve something similar but ends overcomplicating things instead sometimes. But I think that's just a case of one being George directly bulldozing his own work as he did with the special editions whereas the other was handled more delicately by fans with George's oversight. I mean Genndywars Vol 2's stories came from George, but Vol 1 was the team's ideas. It does remind me a little of TCW S1 and how some of those stories were pitched by other writers, but come S2 and onward the pitches exclusively came from George, and things became crazier and more experimental.

heres a question:
ventress has the same problem as ahsoka (why wasnt she referenced in RoTS etc)

is it because she was originally introduced after AoTC, and written out before RoT?

Whichever way you look at it she was essentially killed off or written out before ROTS. Genndywars had her falling into a pit on Yavin IV so if you only saw that plus the movies you'd think Anakin killed her. And the Dark Horse comics got rid of her before ROTS as well. And like you said she came on the scene after AOTC anyway. She never felt like as much of an earthshattering addition to the lore as Ahsoka. While TCW inflated her significance I think, in the EU she's one of many Dark Acolytes.

Well obviously. I was just looking at it from a pure continuity perspective. But that's as it should be. Too many things connect now and you need to have watched 20 other shows to understand this one movie. Star Wars suffers from that pretty badly now. Ahsoka was the one the worst. I like both Clone Wars series but I don't feel the need for any of them be essential viewing for the films, they're different beasts. And I grew up with the 2008 show. But I don't like those "TCW saved the prequels" takes. I really hope that meme dies.

>>94971447
She's a bad guy, shows up infrequently, and isn't really relevant overall, compared to Ahsoka who spent years tagging along with Anakin and seemingly had no lasting influence on him at all (because she didn't exist until after the prequel trilogy was finished).

>>94971599
Continuity is highly overrated. You can't just expect every singke thing on a 50 year old franchise to line up neatly, and continuity also shouldn't get in the way of developing a cool idea, such as Anakin being responsible for raising another Jedi.

Ventress is introduced as just some random assassin to kill jedi, she is trying to do it and is eliminated, no reason to reference her, because her role was very minor and there is still Greivous and Dooku to deal with.
Ahsoka meanwhile is Anakin's padawan since early clone wars(ANAKIN HAVE FUCKING PADAWAN DESPITE STILL BEING UNDER OBI-WAN) she's constantly on screen and is influencal, and in end of TCW we know she was talking with Anakin shortly before order 66 aka that shit was happening in same time EP 3 was.

George never let continuity inhibit his storytelling no. In fact I think he's famous for saying "continuity is for wimps". I think that fits his sensibilities as a creative though because he's always been an indie filmmaker at heart. When he started out he was such a film purist he thought having a story was sacrilegious to the medium.

As a kid I always thought that Genndywars and TCW were both canon since they fit together pretty perfectly. Hell you need to watch Genndy to even know who Ventress is since in TCW she is just there with no explanation

There are some hiccups but they do broadly compliment each other and the 2008 show makes several references to the 2003 one. I think they even alluded to Anakin and Ventress having fought before Christophsis which is an obvious Yavin reference.

But TCW making loose CWMMMP references was pretty standard. I think there was a Kit Fisto Ord Cestus reference in the same ep as picrel. You had Delta Squad. Even the word clanker originates from Republic Commando. I think people don't realize how much the show owes to the EU when it comes to worldbuilding. Words like Ryloth and Twi'leks came from WEG in the 80s iirc. The Jedi Crash Lurmen episodes were inspired by that Empire comic on Maridun George Lucas really liked with the Amani. It wasn't built on thin air.

>>94971773
>(ANAKIN HAVE FUCKING PADAWAN DESPITE STILL BEING UNDER OBI-WAN)
Wasn't he knighted by that point already? His design in the Clone Wars never has a Padawan braid. Knights can have and do have Padawans, it's actually ppart of the process to becoming a master, having helped at least one other Jedi reach Knighthood.

Also, completely unrelated, but I always thought it was weird how "Knight" and "Master" had real word titles, but they still went with a made-up word for their apprentices. I get the reason is because the former debuted in the OT and the later in the Sequels (which were written to be weirder and exotic), but it's still weird. And it's also another example of George not being too concerned about silly things like consistency (based).

Yes Anakin was made a knight by Christophsis in both Legends and canon. I think in Legends Anakin and Obi-Wan remain knight and padawan for longer but in canon they're promoted faster because of the war. Obi-Wan replaces Coleman Trebor on the council and is made a master and general. Anakin is knighted so he can be given the rank of general. So then by Jedi rules he can train a padawan like Obi-Wan did. Hell Obi-Wan took Anakin on when he was still a padawan technically.

>I always thought it was weird how "Knight" and "Master" had real word titles, but they still went with a made-up word for their apprentices
Well they do use the word apprentice and initiate to describe Jedi in training sometimes. And the word Padawan dates back to the 1977 drafts so it's not a new word George thought up. My guess is it might be based on the Greek word for child "Paidi" or child learner "paidamath". Some people also say it's Sanskrit for student path or something which is "Paduah".
>The word "Jedi" originated from the Japanese term "Jidaigeki," which refers to a drama set, set during the Edo period of Japanese history.

>>94972562
“But what about non-ceremonial combat?” Fanry persisted. “When two Jedi are on opposite sides of a conflict. What happens?”
“It…it doesn’t happen.” The idea made so little sense that Obi-Wan could hardly parse it. ... “A Jedi just wouldn’t be involved in a lightsaber duel to the death. It couldn’t happen.”
-Master & Apprentice

While I think that the idea of a Jedi being incapable of encountering a lightsaber wielding Force-user in mortal combat is blatantly false even during the time of the book in question, the overall sentiment is correct. Before the return of the Sith in the Phantom Menace, the likelihood of any given Jedi Knight being placed into a life-and-death lightsaber duel was vanishingly small. It was much, much better use of a Jedi Knight's time to learn Niman and Soresu rather than Makashi, since those two forms equipped a Jedi Knight to deal with enemies who used blasters—an actually relevant threat.

>>94973089
yeah but she was dooku's apprentice, who was, at the time, the main villain

>>94973663
It's like saying why aren't Durge or any of the other faction leaders within the CIS mentioned?
They're minor threats that have already been dealt with by that point and aren't integral to the overall narrative, it's as simple as that.

You can easly tell that CIS was set up to failure and led wrong on purpose.
All they had to do was to attack Kamino with all their might and destroy clonin facilities, this would mean no more clones and war of attrition that CIS would have won.
And I mean real attack in force not one that Dooku allowed to show "we are trying".
Of course game was rigged from start against CIS.

>>94972562
Back during the Old Republic when it was Jedi vs. Sith, that's precisely what happened.
>>94973459
Until this happened. The end of Makashi came at a period when the Jedi ended up with unilateral dominance over the Force.

>>94974038
Kamino could've been under near-constant siege. But maybe the fact it's more isolated in a satellite galaxy makes it slightly harder to reach so it's not convenient keep throwing ships and droids at it leaving other CIS strongholds less guarded.

Anakin

>>94974078
Anon. To win the war all you had to do was to take out cloning facilities, without them republic would not be able to get more clones. CIS was able to assault Couruscant.
Thye should be able to take Kamino without much issues, just throw enough ships and droids at it at one time, or just orbital bombard it into ruin. Without Kamino CIS would just outproduce republic in war of attrition.

>>94974038
We know that, but the Senate only meeds to know Kamino wasn't attacked too often because it was well guarded. Even the attack on Croissant only happened because Sheev had the CIS use undisclosed hyperspace routes the Senate didn't know about, so it's not that huge of a stretch to claim the secretive system on a satellite galaxy just had its only hyperspace lane well guarded.

Man I miss the Tales comics, they made the films feel so much more real to me by giving the world a true sense of having a history.

I'm glad you like it.
I don't know if it's explicitly stated anywhere, but it's my conclusion based on some facts that are mentioned in several places. There are 10,000 or so Jedi serving at the peak strength of the Republic armies during the clone wars, over 2000 Jedi are casualties of the civil war even ignoring Order 66, only about 100 Jedi survive Order 66 to be hunted by the Inqusition after, and that is said to be a 99% casualty rate.
From these facts, we can see that can't be many more than 12,000 Jedi total at the beginning of the Civil War and that basically all of them end up fighting. The functions of recruitment, education, and support, never mind their other roles as healers, consulars, etc, in the wider galaxy must have been falling into neglect due to the manpower needs of the war even before the treachery of the clones.
The war was going to cripple the Jedi Order even without Order 66, Order 66 was designed as a stake through the heart to a crippled organization.

There's even a pretentious fake name for it. It was a fannon thing canonized in the d20 SAGA system.

>>94976641
It happened in the second duel between Marrok and Ahsoka in Ahsoka. Their sabres are locked and Marrok switches off his to make Ahsoka trip. Pretty sure it has occurred elsewhere in canon too, perhaps in a comic? Maybe Acolyte counts?

I assume you mean "swinging at a foe, then switching the sabre off and on again to get around an opponent's block", which I don't think has happened, save for in comics or books, possibly. The obvious reason is because it's a pretty boring technique if it works. You just "oops I win" without meaningful counterplay under the rules of storytelling. As soon as someone uses it for real, the fans will always seethe and mock anyone who doesn't do it. It's kind of like how the "Holdo manoeuvre" ended up ridiculing all of Star Wars space combat up until that point. Using a spaceship as a suicidal hyper space battering ram is an obvious stratagem that a five-year-old can come up with, and it is a massively effective weapon whose existence begs the question: Why the fuck hasn't everyone and their mother used it all the time? And because it's so OP, the very next movie had to handwave it as only working one time out of a million or something.

And there is a very good reason why you don't want to switch off your weapon during combat—it is very dangerous. Yes, you might kill your opponent. But you have just lost your only defense against the opponent's lightsabre, are you sure you want to lose half of your limbs or outright die yourself for it? Perhaps as a desperado move against a superior foe, but then you wouldn't've trained in it, and if the foe is so superior that you are unable to disengage at all and you're plotting a suicide attack, they probably won't fall for your improvised combat trick, especially since they can see the future. So the only times we see a switching off-technique is essentially to get out of a lightsabre lock. It's also more visual that way, the audience has a chance to clearly follow the move.

Is the Old Republic still canon or did Disney make it part of legends? If it's not canon, do you think writers could get away with making it no longer the prequels for the main series but an alternate continuity that doesn't have to follow any rules established in the old main continuity and make new stuff up? New projects separate from Disney's canon?

>>94976641
>>94976986
Yes. People who know how to fight don't do it because it just increases the risk of injury in the duel, and the entire reason sith use lightsabers in the first place is because it stops them from getting hurt.

No, because one is obvious and effective, the other is no different to using a rapier like a rapier.

>>94977021
It is Legends, but Disney has been purposeful in not doing anything in the same time-frame to permit players of SWTOR to pretend it's still mostly good canon. And no, there is 0 chance Disney would ever allow further expanding the Legends continuity beyond SWTOR.

Main cast are or the trilogies, I don't want them butting in the sspin-offs as well. Makes the galaxy feel smaller when it revolves around the same 20 or so people.

>>94977021
It's not canon, it hasn't been canon since the mouse bought star wars, and even before then it was always on the knife's edge of not being canon because it played around with some things that could have been seen as contradictory to other parts of legends (using the term to refer to star wars canon before mouse).

That's essentially what it already is. It currently directly contradicts several aspects of mouse canon and is pretty much incompatible, but it does mostly fit within Legends. It is currently going along with its own universe that is not part of mouse canon because it still makes reasonable money and disney doesn't want to slaughter a golden goose, even though they probably do sort of want to because it's a last bastion of real star wars fans enjoying something that is superior to their canon. They would only slaughter it for petty jealousy reasons, which they are not quite to that point because it still makes money.

What’s everyone’s favourite FFG species.
I had a player who beelined immediately for Droid because he was an engineer and understood that pumping Brawn to 6 then 7 was the most optimal way to stay alive.
I had another play a Wookie and he was merely a nigh indestructible tank unless you went after his Stun.
Just like WEG Wookies.

What do you reckon are the popular big game planets and species in the galaxy?
I figure Felucia is a great spot because you've got acklays, rancors, and those bugs the clones ride. Tatooine's got krayts, banthas, anoobas, and womp rats among other things. Any others?

>>94977842
But it still does revolve around the same 20 people, just a different set of 20 people, so the galaxy still feels small but it's also disappointing because you're getting the store own-brand version of a small galaxy.

A *good* version of what we're getting would be one where they had a defined long-term plan with major story beats established for the setting as a whole(that don't lead to the Sequels, but that's not realistic), but we only see this "overstory" through the lens of multiple one-season or episodic or straight-to-stream movies that otherwise have nothing to do with each other. No crossovers, no cameos, no resurrections - let The Mandalorian be what it was in season 1. Instead of Book of Boba Fett do a Tales of the Bounty Hunters series where Boba gets one episode, already established as big scary bossman of Tatooine. Do that Rangers show they shitcanned because Chubby McThighs dared to suggest someone other than Jews could, potentially, in some timelines be victims of marginalisation and have it be completely its own thing, maybe loop in some of George's ideas about the criminal underworld trying to make their own moves for power as the Empire declines through its Warlord era. Etc etc etc.

Instead they're just doing Thing You Actually Wanted(EU OT heroes kicking ass post-Endor) but with Filoni's personal favourite characters. People complained the EU focused too much on established characters and made the galaxy feel small, but damn at least it had shit like Rogue Squadron where the cast was 95% original 95% of the time.

>>94982166
Doesn't Kashyyk have a huge tourism industry? They probably sell what are informally known as 'retard packages' to anyone who wants one - a tracking device and a one day primer on the shadowlands, then they carry you down and promise to come back in a week - or at least find the thing that ate your body. If they didn't hate Trandoshaans so much they'd probably have a great way to tamp down on tensions by letting them gain jagganath points on the surface.

There's probably extra genres too - extreme survival hunting, like hoth wampa, where you're not only hunting something that's hunting you but fighting the environment. I imagine nobles probably hunt in the ecumenopolis undercities too.

>>94981983
>>94982173
>same 20 people, just a different set of 20 people
20+20 is still 40, silly anon. Even if he's focused on his own cast of OCs there's still different characters to the ones that the movies and other works revolve around. Wheb he's inevitably replaced we'll get a new set of 20 odd balls the continuity revolves around, probably what they wanted to start doing with The Acolyte. As things are I don't think we've reached the point Filoniwars is so overdone it became repetitive, most works sans Book of Boba Fett are different enough still feel unique, even if him and The Rat have been tying stories into one another to make you watch them all.

>>94982194
Kashyyyk strikes me as a place that would require you to wade through a lot of bureaucracy to actually get to hunt. Kinda like Nepal. Country's full of game, but there's only one reserve, you're only allowed to hunt 2 species, and hunts are both expensive and limited. It's this type of bullshit that probably pissed off the Trandoshans in the first place.

>>94982478
How so? The wookiees seem to have real problems with the things in the shadowlands, and anything that thins them out would be a good thing. Throwing disposables who pay for the privilege seems like something they'd be willing to do.

Also I can't find any mention of the wookiee tourism industry so I've got no fucking idea where that came from.

>>94982511
The Shadowlands are dangerous, but it's also the place that Wookies do their coming of age tests. No way they're going to let foreign hunters show up and start killing things in their sacred jungle.
Besides, Wookies are cagey anyways. They get invaded by corporations or slavers every year and they've learned not to trust outsiders as a result, so they're almost definitely not going to be ok with random people coming to their planet with rifles.
Maybe somebody who was in good with them like Han would be allowed to hunt, but Joe Blow from Fuck-knows isn't coming.

>>94982166
You could go into the deep caves of Coruscant and never come out. Entire biomes down there.

>>94982948
>The Shadowlands are dangerous, but it's also the place that Wookies do their coming of age tests. No way they're going to let foreign hunters show up and start killing things in their sacred jungle.

They don't seem to think of them as particularly sacred though. It was a place for rites definitely, but more because it was incredibly dangerous and not because they ascribed any particularly sacred forms to it - that was more the wroshyr trees.

>>94983017
There's a story to be written about some asshole going into the depths to hunt the scum and villany down there and bringing back something that looks suspiciously like a Rakghoul as a trophy, to predictable results when that thing inevitably infects someone on the surface of the most densely populated piece of galactic real state.

You're missing the point. The criticism levelled at the EU continuation of the story post-Endor is that it focused on a small cast of existing characters and this makes the universe feel small. My point was that exactly the same criticism applies to the Fagloniverse continuation of the story post-Endor, he just uses a different small cast of existing characters, which is the inferior choice no matter which way you come at it.

If you're okay with the "small universe" approach then naturally you want the actual OT cast to be the focus, not Orange Buttcheeks, Suebine, Good Guy Ezra, Boba Fatt, and Own Brand Boba Fatt. If you're not okay with that and would prefer a broader, looser continuity that explores the central "plot" from more and more disparate angles then it doesn't matter that one limited cast who're the centre of everything has been swapped for another, it's still one limited cast who're the centre of everything.

Eveb if they were able to get rights to Sir Christopher Lee's image for that there's still the issue of actually getting a good actor to serve as a basis, like they did with Luke, Leia and Tarkin. There aren't many good actors who'd be gine with starring a Star Wars show of all things while being completely unrecognizable and largely uncredited. I'd honestly prefer a complete recast with some well oreserved middle-aged dude that can be aged up and down with make-up.

Just read the new Klyo Ren comic over at /co/
They are attempting something but the material they are working with is crap and the art is stiff. The bits where Ben is in Vader's castle for about 3 pages is more interesting than him and Hux futzing about.

At least it positions the First Order as being mostly ship-based with a number of strategically garrisioned planets. In an attempt to balance the movie-demanded all-powerful enemy with the narrative they are suposed to be hidden and smaller than the Empire was.

Besides, whether or not it was good is not really the point. The point was that it's a show with no pre-established characters from either the original movies or Dave Filoni's spankbank. So cope and seethe and dilate and L+ratio or whatever the kids say these days, grabbing onto irrelevant asides.

You have no sense of adventure.

i have two questions. First, does anyone have access to the graphical resources used to make skill trees as they are in books for ffg, rather than that one website?

Second, I've been thinking of offering 'elite' advances that are just a choice of talents from other trees since we're probably not going to get fifty complete trees per character. No dedication talent, same cost as the talent normally plus ten exp as a surcharge, can buy one per 'complete' tree where complete is the dedication talent for that tree. Thoughts?
