Yep.

>>77455929
Now that i think about it, one good way to make the empire be a much bigger threat is to have the rebels start losing several bases, Hoth style but in mass. That way it is harder for people to call the empire jobbers when they are slowly but surely erradicating rebel cells.

That was a Rebels thread. This is a glorious Star Wars: Imperials thread, in which we speculate if our hero Commander Kallus will be able to defeat the terrorist "rebels" in the next episode.

Now I blame Disney for a lot of dumb decisions, like budgeting and not putting Rebels on the main Disney channel for better viewership, but the writing for this show isn't one of them.
>>
>>77456094
Shut up Kallus, you're worse of a failure than Aresko ever was, at least it wasn't his job hunting rebels. But yeah, you should have used orbital bombardment on the Rebs when you had the chance.

Seriously Kallus, what the hell are you doing? You're better than this.
>>
>>77456159
I kinda want there to be at least one ep where he does something super evil and cruel and gets away with it. Just to show us that he still means buisness
>>
>>77456190
We have the books for that, though.
>>
>>77456190
Definitely, show him as the badass that he supposedly is. That's all I ask.
>>
>>77456246
More people watch the show than read the novels.
>>
>>77456261
I think having him coldly execute Sato would do the trick
>>
>>77456246
Kallus hasn't been in any of the books so far, though. Not even Ezra's Gamble/Servants of the Empire. Aresko got much more time in those, if anybody is interested.

>>77456294
I like that idea.
>>
>>77456294
Could be the result of Vader giving him a "do or die" mission to prove his worth.
>>
>>77456294
Perhaps, maybe by televised firing squad? The deed doesn't have to be shown, but it can be heard and you can see the rebels faces as it's happening.

They do this in Twilight Company, the entire Mid Rim Campaign falls apart for the Rebel Alliance. They're forced to fight world-for-world, back into the Outer Rim.

>Aresko got much more time in those, if anybody is interested.
>He gets more screentime than Kallus

I find that funny, he's also pretty damn good in the books too, fairly competent to a degree. Kallus has ben mentioned though. in really small parts.
>>
>>77456322

That's a shame, I hope he lives long enough to get a book appearance..

I still need to read those. I'm still not over Aresko.
>>
>>77456440
>I'm still not over Aresko.
Me neither, I knew what he was and his purpose in the show was for, but damn if he wasn't likable.
>>
>>77456159
I seem to remember one reason they didn't bombard was that the AT-TE was too small to hit for sure, even with splash damage, and it's likely they'd have gotten through relatively unscathed. Orbital Bombardments are best for big stationary targets like cities, bases, or entire armies. Little stuff could just have shit get blown up around it.
>>
>>77456468
They didn't bombard it because Kallus wanted to go down there himself and show how badass the Empire was.

Kallus didn't want them alive, he wanted to destroy them, just like he did in Wings of the Master.

Old Doctor Aphra on some far off old Separatist Command Base.

Luke just shows up and she crackles over the com system "About time you showed up, was beginning to think his plan B was a wash too. Make your way to the command bridge, we've got to talk."

He walks up towards the commamd bridge hearing the familiar hum of a Lightsaber coming from a closed room along with a familiar presence in the force, like a distorted mirror image of his sister."

Aphra comes over the intercom again, "we can talk about that one later, after she's finished training and we've spoken, now hurry up I'm an old woman and don't have all day."

he approaches the door over the rise seeing a pair of troopers, wearing Army of the Republic era Armor.

Trooper raises a hand "halt" a scanning beam emits from the troopers hand. "Commander Skywalker, Doctor Aphra is waiting for you."

The Command bridge opens and Luke is greeted by a somewhat familiar site, the bridge has been taken over as a workshop with driod parts hanging from the ceiling tools on benches, stacks of blueprints and in the middle an old woman her hands deep in "guts" of a black protocol droid.

"Hey, glad you finally found time to visit" she extricated her hands rubbing them on a piece of tattered black fabric.

"So, are you ready?"

Luke still a bit puzzled as to what he's found "Ready for what exactly?"

Aphra hits a button on a nearby console bringing one of the hangers into view on a console screen showing countless legions of white armored bodies. "Leading the Droid Army of the New Republic."

Probably not, slavery of their species is still a rampant problem amongst Twi'leks. But not like the "They sell their first borns into slavery willingly" type of thing the EU had them do. Ryloth is just a fucking shithole that's corrupt as ever and doesn't care about it's people.

>>77458967
I usually don't care much for most minis games but if you have a crew you can get into it it's probably one of the most fun. Simple to play, but lots of depth in upgrades. Really flexible meta meaning most things can work if you fly em right. Plus it's production values are really good for how cheap it is. A core set will run you like $25 and most ships from there are only $10-$15.

If you have others interested in playing it, get a core set and try it out.

So in The Clone Wars, do we ever find out why so many Separatists consider the Jedi to be "filth"? I know they're at war, but it's possible to go to war and still consider your adversary honorable, but clearly they don't. Have they just swallowed their own propaganda? Is there some kind of "Jedi secretly rule the Republic" conspiracy theory going around?
>>
>>77459701
There are multiple episodes where you see the war from the separatist view, yeah. With the Bonteri family in particular.
>>
>>77459701
Dooku felt the Jedi had just become attack dogs for a corrupt senate, so I imagine that's what he preached to the Separatist populace. Of course you also have people like Grievous, who hates them because he's envious of their power.
>>
The TV spots continue

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dwg0Z8xA5xI
>>
>>77459701

Well, the Jedi call themselves the defenders of peace and righteousness, yet they ally themselves with the corrupt senate and lead the Grand Army into battle against us poor separatists who only want to free ourselves from the evil clutches of the republic.
>>
>>77459701
What bugged me with TCW was how oppressive the separatists were. Aren't they the Confederacy of Independent Systems? How could that translate into droid occupations and martial law? You'd think there was SOMETHING there that people would consider joining for. Was it just an entire interstellar coalition of puppet leaders all answering to Dooku? How does that work?

Yeah, maybe bolts are just torn apart but the jenky blade. I'd expect some sort of explosive effect in that case, though.
>>
>>77459895
>Was it just an entire interstellar coalition of puppet leaders all answering to Dooku? How does that work?
Pretty much. It's a government run by a Sith Lord who's talked a bunch of corporate barons and power-mongers into siding with him. Your average Separatist citizen has no idea this is going on and most of them think the Confederacy is an honest democracy, they don't know about all the shady shit going on. Even the Separatist senate isn't aware, one senator actually called Dooku on his bullshit when they invaded Scipio, and Dooku just kills him.
>>
>>77459987
I gotta rewatch that. I must've not been paying close enough attention, 'cause I just remember the separatists being evil and doing cartoon evil guy stuff.
>>
>>77459931
She may not look like much, but she's got it where it counts, kid. I've made a lot of special modifications myself.
>>
>>77459987
Heroes on Both Sides spells this out pretty clearly. The Separatist Senate actually passes a bill to begin peace talks, the war profiteers get nervous about this and Dooku sabotages the whole thing to keep them happy (and naturally to suit his and Sidious's own reasons for keeping the war going)

I suppose the profits enjoyed by the corporations under the CIS might increase the living standards of their citizens temporarily, basically buying their loyalty. Membership in the Republic apparently comes with a lot of obligations, like taxation, regulation, no slavery etc. There's also probably a weapons production bubble, which would increase employment and keep the masses content and distracted. There are probably separatists who have ideological reasons for supporting this whole thing. Maybe they think it's freer both politically and economically and are blind to the corruption.

>>77461347
The Wook was butthurt about the canon wipe and started to be anal about it, articles with new canon stuff were constantly changed or outright erased by editors, and the site always redirected the searches for Legends articles, people here got the idea to make a canon wiki, it used a timeline from the wookiepedia as a base guide to start writing articles, and as far as i'm aware was the only thing that was copied form wookiepedia. Brandon Rhea, wookiepedia's admin, is also a wikipedia editor or something like that, and he got the new wiki nuked claiming that it was infringing copyrights from wookiepedia
>>
>>77461422
>>/swg/ gets buttblasted at Rhea's inability to let go of Legends and switch to NuCanon

Having a prefered canon isn't "autistic", though. The only stupid thing is that most pages on wookiepedia default to the Legends tab rather than the Canon one, but that's really fucking minor. If they had started outright denying putting canon stuff in there then yes I would agree with that the bias is harmful, but the canon articles have shaped up significantly since the initial messy release.

So yeah, I guess people here just get mad because someone has a different preference? IDGI. I've always been of the opinion that whether something is "canon" or not should never be a deciding factor on whether you should read it, watch it or play it.

Then again my favorite Star Wars games were the Super series for the SNES and those were wildly non-canon even back then, so maybe I'm just too weird.
>>
>>77461522
Just a quick clarification before we get too far into the copyright side of things:

You CAN copyright encyclopedias and wikis. The information is copyrighted in the manner it is presented (similar to the way maps are copyrighted), despite the fact that the articles are about copyrighted material (in this case: Star Wars). Copy/pasting the Wook's articles WOULD constitute an infringement.

That said, I don't think that's what happened. I just wanted to clear up a common misconception before we went down that road.

What really happened was the Wook's autism outweighed /swg/'s autism.
>>
>>77461422
>>77461420
I'm not too familiar with Wiki's, but my 1 minute google search lead me to this.

http://www.wikia.com/Community_Creation_Policy

>You may not copy content from other wikias, or from Wikipedia, without providing proper credit and a link back to the source


>A wikia which only copies content from other wikias may be closed, if it fails to provide credit or begin editing the text to make the project different and distinct.

So if credit was given for the single page that was copied from the Wook, why did it get shut down?
>>
>>77461570
>http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/99
>http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/99/Canon

Compare these two pages and tell me there's no autistic bias here. You can even set aside, for the moment, that there's /99 and /99/canon, despite the fact that the default should objectively be canon.

99 appeared in two TCW episodes and was mentioned in a third. THAT'S IT. His Canon and Legends appearances are the exact same, therefore every single bit of his story is exactly the same. There's no reason the two articles should be any different. In fact, someone went out of their way to make sure the canon page was less informative.
>>
>>77461610
>why did it get shut down
Autism, plain and simple.
>>
>>77461575

That's where Brandon being part of wikipedia comes in, the official reason given was that it infringed copyright, but given Brandon's position most here think he used his position in the wikipedia staff to close the site

Theres discussion talks on Wookiepedia back in 2014 where they debate making their own separate wiki for canon, and many people refused because "future generations need to be able to choose Legends instead of canon if they want."

I really don't mean to be has autistic has the Wook, but just hear me out.

One thing that I came across in one of the Wook talk pages is that while a character may be canon, not all of their reference material is under 'Legends".

In the 99 page you edited, Star Wars Annual 2011 is listed has a reference to when 99 died in 22 BBY. The Wook itself classifies that book has Legends material.

Does it really matter? To the autists who edit the Wook, probably. The rest of the page shouldn't be a point of contention though.

So it's currently 7:31pm for me. I made the edit (>>77462107) at 7:14pm. It only took the Wook 17 minutes to change it.

Anyone who thinks they're not actively hurting the canon pages is objectively wrong.

How can the empire control all rations on every planet? Why are people living there is they can't just use the planets natural resources for food? Must be a small planet if only 3 cases of space supplies relieved them. What's to stop the empire from turning around and taking those supplies too?

Why is hera considered a good pilot if her plan was "like, just keep going in a straight line and I'm sure one of the ships will be able to drop off supplies, I guess?" She was literally responsible for a lot of lives lost.

If they know it's a trap and the empire is just baiting them wouldn't the smarter choice be to make supply drops in other places? You're in open rebellion, you should be more pragmatic rather than wasting resources and lives

>>77462807

What's interesting is that I just read over all the wookiepedia policies and guidelines and I cannot find anything about Legends articles taking precedence or not copying identical articles anywhere. Which means it's not by any standard an official policy of the wiki, just something they do behind the scenes.

Which really is just bullshit.

Exactly. It's active interference.

If they were really interested in making a reference resource, they would've done one of two things in response to my 99 edit:

>fix the edits to remove Legends material
>flag the page with the "This page contains Legends material; please edit so it only contains Canon sources" banner

Instead, they reverted the page and locked it, which is a move that helps no one. I could almost forgive the pages defaulting to Legends if they would at least make the canon pages usable.

A thing I've been wondering about what with all the fan rage over canons and such.

How do they decide to keep some things canon and some things not? Like, for example, the names of almost all the alien species in SW originally came from EU sources, but they're still used for new canon productions like TCW and Rebels. Same with the names of minor characters from the movies. How do they decide to keep or change that? Do they just keep names because they're so well established by now?
>>
>>77463452
No
>>77463555
I took it as he realized the Wook was failing and people were willing to take action. I would have a sit down with him and if he allowed us to fix up canon articles without interference, I would be all of it. I'm sick of these dipshits. I miss the pristine quality the Wook had.

Idunno, I kinda like him having a valid reason for hating the Republic/Jedi and it's a solid showing of the failings of both of those sides.
Also there's something oddly compelling about somebody who hit the point where he was literally considered a demigod having to resort to trickery and generally being a skeev because he genuinely can't compare to Force bullshit.

Right, that makes sense. I guess they're also retaining some things which were explained by the EU but were different in the films?

Like in the movie they call the alien species Neimodians that the EU had named Duros, so they had to make an effort to explain they were related species. But I think they still call Cad Bane a duros in TCW. Or maybe he's a Neimodian in canon?

You have selected the worst waifu out of all available Rebels choices, congratulations.

Despite all our bitching, Rebels is pretty good, as for recommendations, the show doesn't really need them. TCW is more episodic than Rebels, whereas in Rebels the episodes connect with one another and missing one usually means your going to miss a plot point down the road.
