Something interesting I just read about in Join the Resistance. Apparently the Resistance trains in battle scenarios with battle droids and Confederacy ships. This may imply that the Confederacy is supporting the First Order. They also explicitly state that the First Order was once part of the New Republic implying that the centrists went on to officially join the First Order after Bloodline. So now the galaxy is split up between a tiny New Republic in the Core, Colonies, and Inner-Rim, the peaceful Imperial Remnant in the Core, and Colonies (which I assume is made up of surviving governors and whatnot from the Empire), the Pirate Empire in Wild Space, the Confederacy of Corporate Systems which is probably in the galactic North-East near the Corporate Sector, the Separatist Union which is probably near the CCS in the Galactic Center to North-East with a few worlds like Cato Nemoidia in its fringes, Sovereign Latitudes which is a pirate government that is likely in the Outer Rim near Hutt Space, Mandalore Space which I assume still exists, then finally tons of independent planets in between.

I love this. This is exactly what I was wanting the galaxy to turn into after Episode 9 but with Jedi solving conflicts and the Resistance being a pmc that comes in when the Jedi fail to help innocents caught up in wars at all cost.

No, anon. It wouldn't be Clone Wars era. It would be just new droids in the ST era. No Grievous, no Kalani (most likely). If the whole "train using droids as if they were FO" is true, then the ""hero"" of them would just be a Resistance soldier commanding them.

They're fairly amusing but you have to understand the reviews for what they are. But I would suggest it if you want a mindframe of what some Star Wars fans think of the prequels. They're basically what the OT fans thought the prequels should be. I'm not a fan of Plinkett or Mike anymore but they're interesting.

>Star Wars Galaxies II: A Galaxy Divided

Sequel Era suddenly became a little more worth the trouble. I like how the division of power makes some sort of sense, as opposed to reigning much of the galaxy into another Republic. Corporate entities wouldn't want to be hampered by government after the Galactic Republic's regulation and the Empire's nationalization, so there's the Confederacy of Corporate Systems. There would also no doubt be systems who still felt the scars of the Clone Wars and the insult to injury of the Empire, so there's the Separatist Union. Pirates seem to have established a considerable enough presence to warrant a legit Empire. The Remnant no doubt wants to be left well enough alone and the New Republic is struggling to remain relevant, let alone a functioning power.

This had better be expanded upon in VII and IX. It can't just be the New Republic and First Order.

>tfw the Remnant thinks the First Order absolutely barbaric and allies with the New Republic against them in the Liberation of Coruscant from the First Order

>>90592456
Honestly, I bet that the lucasfilm office is chill as hell to work at. Obviously it's not always as laid back as shown in Recon, but it seems like a comfy place.

>>90592403
Yeah but a lot of it is unfounded. For example when people complain about CGI backgrounds they don't realize that 90% of the backgrounds were either completely real or miniatures.

>>90592489
I'm not usually one to complain about special effects too much but actors screened over miniatures looks about as fake as CGI.

>>90592489
True, but you have to just know that the average person is stupid. There's still merit to the CGI complaints though, even if it's as overly simplistic as "reeee too much CGI."

>>90592525
Exactly this. Sure, there may be actual miniatures built and stuff, but if they don't gel with the rest of the scene, it's literally the same as bad CGI, even if people don't know how to express it.

>>90592525
>>90592577
Understandable. I also think having CGI characters physically interact with real people is too far. But Plinkett states things like how the CGI background when Obi-Wan, Mace, and Yoda talk in the Jedi temple in Episode 2 is awful without realizing that that background is real.

>>90592325
Can she cook?

>>90592638
>without realizing that that background is real
I'd need to rewatch it, but if it looks bad, what's the difference?

>>90592105
If you take them they way they were meant to be seen: A NEET obsessed with the OT crying about the prequels in his basement.

1) Some unknown group buying a ton of droids would be very suspicious, which the FO doesn't want the attention from.
2) The FO is 90% in the Unknown Regions away from the rest of the known galaxy. They only interact with the known galaxy through Senate spies and very outer rim planets where few people are.
3) The FO wanted their troops to be like the Jedi, as in, amazingly trained from birth to the time they are used in battle. Getting millions of droids like this only (no B1s, only Commando droids for example) would be much more expensive.

That post ROTS Vader comics is to suck comped to Rise of Darth Vader.

Catalyst is a wild ride and it's fun as fuck.

>>90595602
I'm not wrong. Filoni said they're not returning.

>>90595391
It's CG looking as close as it can to models. I think there was a panel during last year's celebration where they talked about the methods that they used.

>>90595711
The only books you have to read in order are the Aftermath trilogy, since they connect directly one after another. Every other book in the new canon can be read in whatever order you want. You just have to actively remember what happened in the ones (in the timeline) you've read already if they happen before the next one you read.

So you have to run him with Death Troopers (which are rare, since any card with dice is rare) or his ability is blank?

Jesus FFG, calm down you greedy bastards.

Any TCG where half your deck or more has to be rares for you to be remotely competitive is fucked. Magic doesn't do this shit. Even Pokemon doesn't do this shit.

>>90596303
>See, galen. I'm BRILLIANT! I don't need you!

>please come back

>>90596320
>magic doesn't do this shit

MTG fag here; yes it does. Depending on what you play (vintage makes you spend $8000+ to be competetive, modern is a joke) there are cards that were only released once and you can't find without paying exorbitant prices. Even in modern.

>>90596320
Wait it's an actual card game?

>>90594776
You don't need to read Tarkin before Catalyst, just knowing basically who Tarkin is enough. His role is good but it isn't huge.

>>90595262
Here's The Nest. https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0B1Ev0h6J50-NbWQ5Zl9hVUQ2czg

When the other books come out on Kindle I'll screencap them too. I think books 3 and 4 are released on Kindle on April 11th.

>>90596459
Yeah, Star Wars Destiny by FFG, a mix of a CCG and a dice game.

>>90596381

Okay, yes, Eternal formats do that, but Standard doesn't. Magic prints good cards as commons and uncommons, stuff that you would use in a competitive deck. Trainer cards in Pokemon are almost all, as a rule, uncommons, and usually make up about half your deck. The only big TCG I can think of where rarity and power level go hand in hand to the point that your deck has to be almost all rares in all formats is Yu-Gi-Oh, and it's dying.

>>90596628
Yes, they do. But usually it's so broken EVERYONE plays it (see: Eldrazi) and magic has to either ban it, or balance it. Magic is so fucking broken and I love it.

>>90596459

Sort of. It's a card game with dice, that's been released by Fantasy Flight Games, but you can't actually buy it, because Fantasy Flight can't into supply chains or market research, so there are approximately 1000x as many people who are interested in it as there are actual cards in circulation.

The first booster set is only getting one more printing, too. Maybe it'll be a huge one. Maybe it'll be tiny. Who knows.

They've also announced that in the second half of each year, they'll release a base set that they'll keep reprinting in accordance with demand until the next base set releases, but otherwise they'll just release two expansions per year, one print run each.

>>90596711

>>90596732

Depends on how big a print run is. If they gauge demand accurately, they're in the clear, but otherwise, yeah, it's a terrible idea.

Maybe they think keeping the base set in print according to demand will give allow them to calibrate the size of expansion print runs?

Catalyst, and Tarkin.

God tier novels. Thrawns are good as well.

>>90598805
Legends had NK Necrosis, which is a...similar concept

>>90599186

I imagine the base set will include reprints, like how Magic core sets used to work.

It's probably worth noting that the last time Fantasy Flight launched a TCG -- Call of Cthulhu -- it was on the verge of death after a year (despite winning numerous awards) and the only thing that saved it was converting it into the first LCG. The last time they had a healthy TCG was when they converted Game of Thrones into an LCG in 2008.

So Fantasy Flight might just not know how to TCG anymore.

>>90599275
Anything works, I'm just trying to avoid the shit

>>90599244

A New Dawn, Tarkin. I'm told Catalyst and Lost Stars are also good.

>>90599244
I found Lords of the Sith to be pretty engaging at times.

>>90599244
From Nu-Canon, Lost Stars, New Dawn and Tarkin are great, and I hear good things about Catalyst
From old canon, only read the Thrawn trilogy myself but those are fantastic

>>90599375
Pretty much anything by Timothy Zahn, the novelizations, the Han Solo Adventures, the Bounty Hunter Wars, the Courtship of Princess Leia, and Shadows of the Empire. Some people also like the Rogue Squadron books but I never much cared for them. All of this is EU stuff though, and I'm basing these suggestions solely on what is pleasant to read, not necessarily what is a net positive to the Star Wars franchise. As far as I've seen, all the canon novels might have decent plots but the actual writing leaves much to be desired.

>It’s all set to come to a head next week when they finally meet for the first time since Maul killed Kenobi’s master, Qui-Gon Jin, and Kenobi responded by separating Maul’s body at the torso in Star Wars: The Phantom Menace.

I mean, I guess their fights in TCW didn't really amount to much as rematches but still

>>90599477
Oh and from canon actually there's Moving Target, Smuggler's Run, and The Weapon of a Jedi. I haven't read Catalyst or Bloodlines, but Aftermath trilogy, Heir to the Jedi, Dark Disciple, Lords of the Sith and Tarkin aren't really worth it in my opinion. I strongly suspect the upcoming Thrawn book will be good however, as it's written by Timothy Zahn and he's never failed me yet.

Tarkin may be a neat journey into a character's motivations, but it is a fucking boring slog of a book and I'm glad it's less than 300 pages. Heir to the Jedi, Dark Disciple, and Lords of the Sith are pretty much the same way.

Nu-Canon is average as fuck, and it's pretty telling Catalyst is praised as the best of it. It's good but nothing stellar. Lucasfilm just aren't taking any risks in the media that's not the movies and it's getting really stale.

>>90600171
no

for one thing none of the books are truly garbage, at least storywise, for another, the worst books (or rather the least good, since none of them are expressly bad) are the ones that don't really go anywhere and have only the most tangential effects to canon

for example, one of the best books is Moving Target, a junior novel that explains how Leia leads Nien Nunb and a team of commandos on an undercover mission and winds up stealing the shuttle Tydirium, while one of the weakest books, Heir to the Jedi, nothing important really happens

Not everything in canon has to connect to the bigger story the moment it's released. The Lando comic took, what, two years or so to connect to something other than ESB? Now it connects to Empire's End and potentially TFA/TLJ through Phasma's armor.

>>90600290
this is also true, while I would hesitate to call any of the new canon books bad (the weakest ones are significantly better than the EU average and nothing near EU catastrophe level) there aren't really any truly spectacular novels. Even for its flaws, the Thrawn trilogy far outdoes the best the new canon has to offer for the time being, but its important to remember there's only been about 2 years of it while there was nearly 40 for the old EU

I don't think there's technology capable of resurrecting a nervous system that's been reduced to ash, not even in Star Wars. The Fifth Element at least had a severed arm to clone from, and we don't really know precisely how consciousness works there and how it handles issues of Theseus' Ship. All that remains of Grievous is carbonized atoms, and if he had a soul, it's returned to the Force.

The tension of these scenes can be cut with a knife. Then Savage stands up and in a classic Lucasism dispels it by knocking the ceiling lamp about. Fucking loved this arc

Good news is that Grievous will be confirmed to be alive and will appear in season 4!
Bad news is... well, see pic.

>>90600989
>>90601002
I'd tolerate it if it could reasonably be explained that Star Wars technology could be used to collect and reanimate the disparate particles of the citizens of Alderaan. Until such a time however, I'm going to say that Grievous is possibly the most dead character in the franchise.

>>90601082
Hey you can see the quasi-organic neck tube of the artificial sac that contained his organs! Of course there's probably about as much left in there as when humans accidentally inhale fire, read: none.

>>90600545

>another ongoing on top of the main book, Aphra, and Poe

Well fuck me, it's not like I need to eat, right?

>>90600896
Can minds be copied and stored into computers in SW? I'd imagine canon Grievous doing that prematurely as some cowardly precaution.

>>90601210
Possibly, in the latest issue of Aphra. However that's a Theseus Ship Paradox, and Grievous, coward that he is, would never tolerate sacrificing his current consciousness for a prospective artificial replacement; it still wouldn't be him no matter how well it mimicked him.

>>90601210
No. The closest to that is what Cylo did:

>"When the last didn't return, my next body was activated. I've created a personality map small enough to be simulated efficiently. Add memory banks and plug-in calculation systems, and I am an immortal system. I am something new. And far from human."

>Grievous is possibly the most dead character in the franchise.
Han Solo has him beat. Stabbed through the heart with a lightsaber that also went through his spine, that then stayed in his body for an extended period (ensuring that the heart was thoroughly destroyed by the heat) before being thrown down the standard issues "impossibly deep pit with a light shining at the bottom". A pit that then exploded twice, before the whole building exploded. Then the entire base and in fact the entire planet, before becoming a star
At this point even Han's atoms didn't survive. He's more Hydrogen Solo now

>>90600966
Why do his eyes catch fire if all the shots hit his fleshy chest bits?

We didn't see Han's body, and with Star Wars, no body = no funeral. Don't forget Maul.

>>90601354
Because fire spreads.

The fire likely ignited some sort of fluid used by his cybernetic parts

he does have wires or tubes of some sort going into what remains of his face

>>90601354

Probably a lot of delicate electronic bits in there too, and I wouldn't be surprised if that included the power source for all his robotics.

>>90601294
Yeah, I don't think he'd see the appeal in creating a duplicate of himself that lives on while he dies. I think he's the type who would rather have statues erected in his memory rather than some AI Not-Grievous who gets to live and fight while he himself can't experience any of that because he's dead.

>>90601354
I think the fluid in his gut sac ignited and blew out all of his organic bits

>>90601396
Maul was a criminally under used villain who deserved to be brought back
Bringing back Han would undermine one of TFA's few original and shocking moments for no reason other than destroying any semblance of danger for the main cast. That and it would basically condemn Kylo to just being a flat out villain, ignoring all the shit about being torn apart they tried to sell. Han is dead, and I'm pretty sure Harrison is done with the role

>>90601581
Listen I'm not saying I believe that it will or should happen, but you have to admit, Grievous' death is the most explicitly graphic and positively unsurviveable we've seen in Star Wars. Hell, even the ridiculous EU had people surviving being decapitated, but never surviving visible disintegration.

If Soule is being put onto Vader, is Poe Dameron ending?

>>90601294
Eh, I could see him possibly doing it.

>>90601674
Its definitely the most graphic on screen death
I'd argue that "Lightsaber clean through the heart and out the other side" is the same degree of unsurviveable though

>>90601815
It's a pretty sexy scene.

>>90601987
it clearly didn't go through the heart since he's still alive and moving during the scene after the impalement, just like qui gon

I miss Qui Gon

>>90601194
>>90601937
I've got a feeling at least one of Poe and Aphra will be through by the end of the year.

In fact, if you get rid of Aphra, I think it's the best lineup we've had yet:

>Star Wars
Set after Ep 4. Very classic nostalgia-fueled comfiness with some canon expansion.

>Darth Vader
Set after Ep 3. We haven't seen much of Vader here so this should be a lot of fun.

>Poe
After Ep 6. New territory, and the closest we'll get to building the world of the ST until after Ep 9 is released.

Keep peppering in minis -- more from the PT and post-ROTJ era preferably -- and we're in a good place.

Maul doesn't look angry here. More calm and defensive, which isn't like him.

Hope it turns out BOi-wan is the one who attacks and maul defends himself saying he just wants to be besties.

You know, this just made me realize that Boba Fett isn't even the most skilled out of all of Jango's clones. Who do you think would get that badge?
