And that's why I don't consider 5 canon. Most of the books coming out are fine though, besides the ones Traviss made
>>84397048
Yeh
The Jul parts in Traviss' books were great though IMO
>>84397033
Hmph, fine.
>>84397035
It's the Prowler from the Spartan Ops cutscene.
>>84397048
Traviss did one good thing in her books, and that was make Jul 'Mdama. And then Brian Reed killed him off if the first five minutes of Halo 5. Reed and Halo 5 suck.
>>84397026
Don't go there.
>>84397100
>>84397100
Clones can handle a lot of stress, but what about 'other' kinds of stress?
I know everybody loves her know which is great, but has Filoni really got a leg to stand on when he mocks the initial fan reaction to her?
I mean, it's not really a case of the fans rejecting her because she was different and they came around to accepting her, the initial dislike was cause she was really annoying and obstructive, the reason she's a fan favorite now is because she got good.
It's not like it was anything clever that Filoni actually pulled off. People don't like shit things and they like good things. If shit thing turns into a good thing, people will go from disliking it to liking it, it's not a trick.
I love Ahsoka, but I've still got no desire to rewatch TCW movie, because it still sucks no matter how much I like the characters after their development.

>>84397048
People are literally retarded if they didn't think Cortana wasn't eventually going to go crazy. It's like they'd never played Marathon before...and even if they hadn't played Bungie's Halo progenitor, they should have seen it coming a mile away with all the Rampancy "7 year life cycle" foreshadowing that got dropped frequently, especially in Halo 3.
>>84397531
Oh, he will be, he will be.

>>84397532
I think it's more that she had a good sendoff in Halo 4, with her being able to go out on her own terms, protecting John, rather than dying by succumbing to Rampancy. And then she's suddenly brought back in Halo 5 to be the villain, fucking up the scene from Halo 4.

To make the Halo chat a little more relevant to Star Wars, how do you think the Sangheili would fare in Star Wars as their own power?
>>84397912
Sounds like we need to grasp some "subtlety" and "nuance".
When is the Pinkett review for TFA coming out? You could really tell that RLM didn't care for it in their review
>>84397955
>>how do you think the Sangheili would fare in Star Wars as their own power?
Depends, as in independent or as in part of the Republic Senate? They would certainly be militaristic considering that they have a warrior culture.
>>84397955
Stop. Halo isn't relevant to Star Wars.
>>84397955
Honaraboo warriors who think they can easily defeat Jedi because they too have cool swords.
>>84398021
I'm sure they'll do fine.
>>84397955
They would definitely be able to hold their own. They have the firepower to do what they wantm
>>84398059
But is that firepower the Sangheili's or the Covenant's?
Big distinction.
>>84398059
The thing is though, all of that is the combined effort of the Covenant races to build space ships of that magnitude. I don't think the Sangheili will have Huragok or Lekgolo to maintain them.
>>84398099
>>84398135
They've shown that even post-war, Sangheili can still create, upgrade, and repair their ships, armor, and weapons, so probably.
>>84397994
Are you kidding? Mike was dick sucking like crazy. Jay and Rich were skeptical.
>>84398157
Most of the ships on their fleet are pre-Schism though. Most of the ships like the Long Night of Solace and the Uneven Elephant are unicorn ships in which are only one of a kind. There aren't more of them.
>>84398157
I dunno man, I stopped paying attention after Halo 3
>>84398059
They would get stomped. Star Wars is all kinds of overpowered. Do you know what a turbolaser blast can do to a planet?
>>84398249
Tip: Make up your own headcanon about the events after Halo 3. Chance are, it's going to be better than what 343i made up.
>>84398228
>Uneven Elephant

Hey guys, let's be nice and carry this over to
>>84398282
>>84398282
>>84398282
>>84398099
The Sanghelli are the main Covenant faction and are in charge of most/al ships.
Even by themselves they'd likely have a sizeable force and post-war can still maintain themselves quite well
>>84398228
There are 2 known supercarriers, they're not one of a kind. They're flagships though but they're absolutely massive
>>84398255
No, because canon hasn't established it. Doesnt seem to be too much of a danger because Coruscant was not seriously damaged during the space battle.
Have you seen what a covenant fleet can do to a planet?
>>84398324
Aaaand they removed it. Thanks mods. Nice to know that comics can't be posted on the comic board.

Doesn't translate to massive damage. We've never seen it vaporize anything larger than a fighter.
Meanwhile, Covenant fleets can devastated planets. Could kill even more if they attack a place like Coruscant which is mostly metal and would be more damaged by Glassing

>compared to Phase 2 armor which absorbs superheated plasma
It does? It doesn't seem to do a very good job of it, considering how clones eat shit in the hundreds
>>84399487
>>84399678
How the hell would they get past the home fleet guarding Courscant? Let alone the planetary defenses? Clones or Stormtroopers would decimate their ground forces. The Covenant could barley stand up against Scorpion tanks which fire using SLUGTHROWERS.
>Blaster fire can penetrate it.
Most of the times but not always. Remember REX survived hit in the chest. We've seen what blasters are capable of doing to Human flesh and how dangerous they are. Most of the time, blasters are not set to full power either. I seriously doubt Spartan armor and shields could withstand a blast from a DC-15 or B2 blaster cannon. Remember DC-15's blow apart Super Battle droids made of some of the toughest armor in the CIS.
>Not as augmented as Spartans
>Spartan bones are literally harder than concrete
Sure but they're still more capable than the average humor. They have greater numbers, armor, weaponry and training. A Spartan would get smoke running into a Clonetrooper or even Stormtrooper.

>>84399885
>>Remember REX survived hit in the chest.
His survival was sheer luck. The bolt penetrated both the pauldron AND the chest piece. It barely missed the heart.
>>84399885
I was saying give the Clones SPARTAN augments and armor. Not replace them with the UNSC. All other weapons and tech would be identical to canon, they'd just be used by an army of super-soldiers now.
>>84400006
But SPARTAN armor is inferior to Phase 2 armor.

>>But SPARTAN armor is inferior to Phase 2 armor.
Prove it
>>84400648
>>Clone Force 99
Don't forget the Republic Commandos. But the Spartan IIs still overshadow them.
The sheer horror.
Let's talk about Star Wars instead of Halo shit. Life Debt spoilers that were posted last thread:
-No Thrawn. The Fleet Admiral from the end of Aftermath is Gallius Rax, who is a very cruel man who was part of Palpatine's inner circle. He is purposefully manipulating the post-Palpatine situation to have Imperials who he thinks are not trustworthy or good enough killed (he's the Operator from Aftermath who was serving as an informant to the New Republic), hoping to purge the excess from the inelegant machine of the Empire to create something more focused (which obviously will later become the First Order). Sloane does not like him and thinks he has no honor. Mas Amedda is alive and helps Sloane investigate Rax.
-Rax, Palpatine, Amedda, and interestingly Yularen were trying to find something on Jakku. Palpatine once said that Jakku "was significant to the galaxy a thousand years ago, and will be significant again." We know that the Sith were thought to be destroyed 1000 years before TPM. Did the final battle take place on Jakku instead of Ruusan in the new continuity, or did perhaps Darth Bane go into hiding there? Is this why Lor San Tekka was on Jakku, since he was searching for Luke who himself had worked with Lor earlier to hunt for Force relics and knowledge? And what does this mean for Rey?
-There were 13 Super Star Destroyers, all of them now destroyed, taken over, or missing. The Annihilator, which was Tagge's personal SSD in the Vader comic, has been commandeered by pirates. Palpatine's personal SSD was the Eclipse (!!!) and what happened to it is unknown.
-General Hux's first name is...Armitage. He's the illegitimate son of Brendol Hux (which we already knew), the commandant of the Arkanis Academy from the Servants of the Empire books, who was responsible for coming up with the idea of breeding Stormtroopers.
-Some characters from other media appear, like Yendor from Lost Stars and Bloodline, and Evaan Verlaine from the Princess Leia comic.
-No Luke.
>>84400848

The Ohnaka Gang will rise again
>>84400848
>>84401252
What sort of pirate crew has the manpower to staff an entire SSD
>>84401252
>Hondo having an SSD
>>84401252
Woudln't he be old as fuck by then? I'm fairly sure Weequayans age probably the same as all other near-humans. And I get the vibe that Hondo was probably somewhere in his 40s during the Clone War at the youngest.
>>84400848
Jakku really has become the new Tatooine in that it's become the most important planet in history like Tatooine was in the EU
This is ridiculous

>>84400681
>Phase 2 and Stormtrooper armor

>shrapnel
>impervious to small arms like slug throwers

http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Stormtrooper_armor
http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Phase_II_armor
Humans in Halo mostly use slugthrowers and conventional weapons. They still use antiquated 50 caliber weapons. An AT-ST or AT-RT would annihilate a Scorpion tank. We've seen the sheer scale Star Wars weaponry. We've seen torpedoes cripple kilometer long ships yet fail to damage AT-AT armor. They would get stomped no question about it.
>But the Spartan IIs still overshadow them
>thick skin armor
>super strong augmentation
>tiny numbers
>still die like regular soldiers
Irrelevant when your enemies have better training, armor, weaponry, vehicles, tactics and numbers.
>>84401175
I was hoping there would be more manufactured. How many SSDs were in Legends?
>>84401528
inb4 Jakku is a force heavy planet like Mortis, Snoke and Rey are from there and they represent the dark and light side of the force.
>>84401588
>Phase 2 and Stormtrooper armor
>can withstand frag grenades
>protect against explosives
>shrapnel
>impervious to small arms like slug throwers
>advanced optics and computing technology
The Mjolnir can also do all of those. One of its advantages over the Phase 1, 2, & Stormtrooper armor is that it has an active energy shield and a neural interface.
>>84401528
>And Jakku's old name? Rakata Prime.
>>84401313
I'm imagining that they took it over and then have no idea how to run it, can't afford the cost of keeping it running, and it all turns into chaos.
Basically this only somehow more ridiculous
>>84401313
A good pirate would just house his crew and operations from within it and make it a traveling hub for other pirates to do business in as well.
>>84401419
The crew can still take his name in honor of him.
>>84401733
Both of them exist on the new canon map concurrently, and they aren't right next to each other like Bespin and Hoth though they are still somewhat close.
>>84401709
And, of course, I forgot. It's a powered exoskeleton. Which means that the user can run faster, has more strength, and his agility is increased compared to the plates of a Stormtrooper.
>>84401528
It turns out that Jakku IS Tatooine, thanks to a Force catastrophe that sent Jakku through time and space, hurtling it towards a binary star system, where it eventually settled into orbit and was subsequently colonized.
>>84401836
>The crew can still take his name in honor of him.
>honor
>pirates
Pick one. They're insolent buttfuckers.
>>84402009
If Maz can get the respect of many people, I don't see why someone like Hondo couldn't either.
>>84401948
This is Star Wars, it's far more likely that everybody just forgot what Tatooine was or that it ever existed.
>>84402009
That and Hondo's already a washed-up nobody by the time of Rebels.
>>84401709
>>84401878
>Mjolnir
>protect against explosives
>shrapnel
>impervious to small arms like slug throwers
>die like a bitch if an Elite looks at you funny
You get killed in game if you trip over a fucking frag grenade. Concentrated small arms overwhelm shields. A Storm or Clone would laugh as his armor deflects bullets off his chest.
>And, of course, I forgot. It's a powered exoskeleton. Which means that the user can run faster, has more strength, and his agility is increased compared to the plates of a Stormtrooper.
Doesn't mean a fucking thing when a Spartan gets sniped by a DC-15 or E-11. Or overwhelmed by a ratio of 100-1. If we were talking about droids, Spartans would be even more hopeless versus the Confederacy. There is no way in hell a Spartans shields could withstand a full blast against a blaster rifle. Humans have questionable tech in Halo but none of it compares to Star Wars tech. Now Forerunner stuff + beyond is more equal.
>>84402099
With the help of the Ghost crew and the resources from Bail, Hondo could rebuild his pirate crew to help fight off the Empire, giving him amnesty from the Rebellion and future New Republic.
>>84402168
Are we talking about ingame or lore?
>>84402054
This DESU. thanks to Maul, Jabba was the last surviving Hutt of the Hutt Clan. After he died, no one would have a reason to visit Tatooine.
>>84402239
Was there ANY reason to settle on Tatooine other than Jabba the Hutt?
>>84402259
It's a great place to get poodoo for your bantha.
>>84402168
>>A Storm or Clone would laugh as his armor deflects bullets off his chest.

But Stormtroopers died to Ewoks.
It's happening again. I'm getting that feeling again that the new EU is going to be just as shitty as the old EU, only in different ways. Help me out, /swg/. Reassure me.
>>84402221
>Hondo could rebuild his pirate crew to help fight off the Empire,
That doesn't sound like Hondo. Taking part in some revolution would seem like business that's too risky. He goes where the possibility of profit is most advantageous. And at that point in time, the chances of profit were not well with the Rebellion.
>>84402351
No.
>>84401604
http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Category:Executor-class_Star_Dreadnoughts
> 19 + other SSD classes like Eclipse
I always put the number of Super Star Destroyers into the 10-20 range. In the movies Vaders was the only one, Endor could have used one or two extra even with Sheev underestimating the rebels so the number had to be low.
>>84402351
But anon IT'S ALL CONNECTED, what's not to love? Everything is equal to the movies now!
>>84402351

It's just a matter of time until we get another gold nugget like Kotor again. And this time it will actually be considered canon.

>>84402341
>But Stormtroopers died to Ewoks.
Did they though? Looked to me that the Stormtroopers were winning. Yeah, Ewoks had some momentum from when they first surprised the Empire, but that quickly changed. The Ewoks could never win. Stormtroopers are too well armed.
>>84402351
>>84402414
But how did the Stormtroopers die ti Ewoks then?
>>84402351
Was the Mon Calamari Grievous fanboy not a confirmation for you?
>>84402351
Nah
Just do what everyone did with the old EU, enjoy the good stuff, ignore the bad
>>84402351
Nothing in canon is anywhere near as bad as Legends. There's no way it can be just as bad in different ways.
The only bad thing so far is a meh book with poor writing. TFA was a rehash but nothing super duper offensive
>>84402433
>But how did the Stormtroopers die ti Ewoks then?
Some Ewoks got some good shots in during the beginning. But it's pretty obvious Stormtroopers quickly got the upperhand. Did you forget the part where the Ewoks were retreating back into the woods? They could never actually stand a chance in strength at arms against what appeared to be a small company of Stormtroopers. The whole point of their surprise attack was a diversion and draw the the majority of the stationed imperial forces away from the shield generator.

Zerg rush. Seriously. They were met with superior numbers of enemies with small, short bodies who could disappear into the scrub brush in an instant and who knew the forest like they'd lived there their entire lives, which they had.
Sure you may be one of the Emperor's Finest but that doesn't save you when a half dozen furry little fuckers suddenly appear and hack you off at the knees, or thrust a spear up at what happens to be your crotch height. Or tangle you in bolas and then drag you off to their cooking pots.
And frankly the 501st used shit tactics. If they'd fallen back against their bunker, or just gone inside with their prisoners, the ewoks would have been shit out of luck. Defensive lines or back to back fighting while covering each other. Flamethrower troopers, too, if you don't mind the raging forest fire. It'd certainly get rid of them.
But no, they chased the little fuckers into the woods, their own territory, and split up. They made it too easy to be picked off. Should have just gone into their bunker and then ordered TIE bombers to track high heat concentrations to pinpoint their villages and bombed the shit out of them.

The old EU was all connected too. Look at Naga Sadow's spirit possessing Luke's students on Yavin 4 or Darth Krayt.
>>84403040
>Naga Sadow
That was Exar Kun on Yavin 4 doing the possessing thing.
>>84402513
>TFA was a rehash but nothing super duper offensive
A Star Wars movie that was barely inspired by what George Lucus wanted (ironically this puts it on the same level as the EU that people in this thread like to shit on constantly for not being Lucas' vision) that was barely it's own movie that now has guaranteed that Star Wars will stay stagnant in the OT era (TFA might as well be OT) for the next 20 years. That's pretty offensive.
>>84400848
>who was responsible for coming up with the idea of breeding Stormtroopers.
Unfortunately he started with the idea of breeding his elite all male Stormtrooper guard to each other, which didn't bear any fruit, so to speak, so next he thought, fuck it, let's go straight for Super Troopers but the Rancor/Stormtrooper breeding program was, if anything, even more disastrous.
>>84402719
>make a hitler statue
>fuck up his mustache of all things
>>84403109
It's probably so it could sell in countries where his image is banned, like Germany.
>>84403040
Not really. It was all very loose and it didn't really know how to effectively use most of the characters it had. Kyle Katarn more or less got the shaft once the Jedi Knight games were over and done with and only got very brief appearances in the novels. Jaden Korr got a series of books where he fucking dies and his clone has to pick up from where he left off. Characters from as far back as the Old Republic get mentions by characters thousands of years later for trivial references or pointless plugs.
Outside of the big event novels, the EU mostly did what it wanted and bloated itself.
>>84403105
>but the Rancor/Stormtrooper breeding program was, if anything, even more disastrous
Maybe from your point of view, for me it was the best summer of my life.
>>84403238
Hell, an entire character had to be invented to explain a lot of the contradictions in Boba Fett's EU history.
who is ur star warsfu?
>>84403040
No, the EU contradicted itself all the time and there was no coherent or cohesive team to put it together. Look at that convoluted mess of canon tiers. There are still Legends pages on Wookipedia that are fucked because of authors 1uping each other.
>>84403040
I don't think you know what "all connected" means.
>>84403090
By offensive I was meaning something absolutely retarded like the Vong or Trioculus or Hutt/Bunny/Triceratops Jedi.
>>84403290
Pablo is my spirit animal.
>>84403307
>Look at that convoluted mess of canon tiers
What I liked about this is that they were created to try to prevent the contradictions of the 90's era EU, but Leland Chee had a habit of applying retcons and trying to make things fit anyway (because he absolutely refused to invalidate anything unless he had no other choice) which completely defeated the purpose of the tiers.
>>84402259
Is the Boonta Eve still a good track?
>>84403238
The nucanon also has the PT to work off, unlike the EU which came out just before TPM
>>84403238
>>84403283
Also the Jedi Apprentice/Jedi Quest series were barely, if at all integrated into the Prequel Era EU save for a couple comics which kind of went under the radar.
>>84403290
you're mom
>>84403381
>the EU which came out just before TPM
The EU's existed since the early 80s, I think. Much of the cancer in the EU happened well before TPM ever came out.
>>84403381
And they're actually coordinating stuff that's being created alongside the new movies, so you don't get weird shit like Ki-Adi-Mundi having a bunch of wives and then AOTC establishes Jedi can't marry.
>>84403381
The Old EU existed since before Empire Strikes Back though.
>>84403506
Obligatory
>>84403512
>The Old EU existed since before Empire Strikes Back though
True, though it was the Heir to the Empire Trilogy that really kicked off the EU
>>84403536

I read everything until 'HEY DIT YOUR PUNK ASS' in regular calm Windu tone. The rest beyond that was in regular angry Sam Jackson yelling.

>Much of the cancer in the EU happened well before TPM ever came out
Out of curiosity, roughly when was it it that the yuuzhan vong were introduced?
>>84403667
Early 2000s.
>>84403536
This is pure genious
>>84402406
I'm hoping it's a sequel set thousands of year into the future instead of the past. Think Star Wars with the decadence of Dark Souls.
>>84403314
You'd better not be talking shit about Master Thon of Ambria.
I never noticed before, but there were a couple dual-wielding Jedi and a few that used reverse grip, some even switching between front and reverse in the Arena battle
>>84403964
Yup. I've watched the arena battle enough times to be able to move to what's going on in the background. A lot of cool stuff to miss out on.
Is the anon who made that Clone Wars essential watching guide in here. I got a couple things id like to say to him.
>>84403506
That's absolutely no guarantee that any of it is actually going to be any good. NONE of this is a guarantee that it's actually going to be any good.
Also, you definitely could enjoy the good and ignore the bad with the old EU, like >>84402485 says, because in the end Lucas barely paid attention to any of it. It was licensed fanfiction and Lucas treated it as such.
Now, though, with the NuEU it's ALL official canon. Disney wants everything coordinated. It's impossible to ignore the awful stuff because its directly, unavoidably attached to the good stuff by official edict from Disney. The NuEU is going to have shit like Aftermath hanging around its neck like an anchor.
>>84404023
What's wrong?
>>84404053
His list is whats wrong. I want to know what he was thinking when he made it.
>>84404032
Replace Disney with Lucasfilm and yohre basically right. Though Aftermath isnt nearly as bad as 90% of the bad section of the EU
>>84404023
Probably not, if youre referring to the only list.
>>84404078
Elaborate. Also which list, there are two now
>>84404032
>That's absolutely no guarantee that any of it is actually going to be any good. NONE of this is a guarantee that it's actually going to be any good.
Yes, and? We've known that the new canon wasn't ever going to dictate quality, only cohesion.
>>84404098
I can feel it in in my bones that something truly terrible is coming, and not just something badly written or something that pisses off /pol/. I think we are going to get something that sinks to the depths of Splinter Of The Mind's Eye.
>>84404110
Theres two? Well im bitching about this one.
>>84404098
>only
Old*
>>84404145
That's the old list and it is well known to be garbage
>>84404145
Fuck that list, it's old and we don't recommend it anymore, and we never should have. Watch everything. Whatever you're mad about on that list, you have every right to be.
>>84404145
The anon who made that has been long gone. That list is old
>>84404183
>>84404169
Knew i wasnt the only one miffed about this. I was expecting to hear some actual defense of this shit list.
>>84404214
No defense here, but lets talk TCW. How much have you watched, anon? I hope you didn't skip anything because the list told you to.
>>84404214
That list is pretty bad, honestly. Appreciate the efforts gone into making it, but I honestly would never recommend it.
I mean for goodness sakes, the Onderon Arc (the literal start of the Rebellion, and Saw Gurerra's first appearance) is only an honorable mention.
When Whitaker was announced to be playing Saw, we even had someone in this thread say he never knew about Onderon because the guide said to skip it.
>>84404275
Ive finished awhile ago and seen every episode except for the droid arc in season 5 and some stupid comedy episode in season 4 i think.
>>84404517
You should hit up the droid arc, honestly. It seems stupid at first but it really has a lot of heart to it as it retells a few classic childhood stories in Star Wars fashion.
>>84404345
>we even had someone in this thread say he never knew about Onderon because the guide said to skip it
I remember that. Who on earth would use an episode guide to watch a show especially when the guide leaves out most of it.
>>84404517
Well that droid arc was pretty bad but you got to see a clone commando in action and the best explosion out of the entire series.
>>84404560
Yeah i might if im bored later which is a lot lately. I would love to get into a star wars tabletop one day though. Also I think a couple arcs in season one and two are underrated. Like the Holocron Heist one.
>>84404635
Oh wait I was referring to the arc where R2 and C3PO go on a planet hopping journey. That said, the droid arc is still just as heartfelt.
>>84404517
Droid arc is actually prettyfun. And it has a Clone Commando, and a high budget first person explosion.
>>84404635
Holocron Heist is bretty gud, introduced best bounty hunter Cad Big Guy
Nobody has posted best girls yet, let me fix that.
>>84404913

>>84404913
There is a disturbing lack of Hera porn.
>>84404623
>Who on earth would use an episode guide to watch a show especially when the guide leaves out most of it.
Well to be fair there was a lot of bad episodes too
>>84405142
You're not searching right
>>84404145
>Theres two?
Yeah some anon made this a couple threads ago
>>84405178
I know but all of them have some sort of importance to them so you have to watch it all.
I want tokisshernose
This may be a little out there. But say if you could cast a live action movie of Rebels, who would you cast?
>>84405249
I've done my best and it's not enough. With a face like her's, she should be the eye-contact fellatio queen of the galaxy.
>>84406262
Matthew Lillard as Kanan
>>84406383
cheeky little cunt
>>84406383
>Matthew Lillard
Honestly, I hope FPJ does him a solid and gets him in the show. He could do an alright Imperial officer, random stormtrooper or maybe an Inquisitor. It's been a good while since he's done anything good.
>>84406262
Kanan - FPJ
Hera - Emily Blunt
Ezra - Lorenzo Henrie
Sabine - Some asian girl.
Zeb - a big guy + CGI
Chopper - Chopper
Rex - Temuera
Commander Sato - Jet Li (I'm not joking)
>>84406592
Rebels sucks
>>84406629
You suck.
>>84406592
>Sato-Jet Li
I am so down with that.
>>84406592
Literally everyone in that list for the ghost crew (except for Rex, who really shouldn't even be mentioned because Tem's the only choice) seems like they'd be much too old.
Jet Li's an okay choice I guess though.
>>84406730
FPJ is only about 10 years older than Kanan is supposed to be. Make up can do wonders.
