Kothra Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 Which 'Han Solo trilogy'? The "new" one, or the really old one that was written before Zahn started the trend of writing Star Wars novels?Because I've only read the old one, but I don't really remember that much... I think most/all of it was based in the Corporate Sector (which should really be further explored in the EU). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kothra Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 "Paradise Snare", "Hutt Gambit", and "Rebel Dawn" are the stories in the 'new' one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redacted Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 Haven't been here in a while. oONew episode of TCW was EPIC. It's great to see Anakin and Ahsoka in action again. Also, I don't think Obi-Wan's been seen at all in this season save for holograms and such. It's awesome to see him back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tenebrae Invictus Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 Well, my dad got in the TOR beta, and I decided to try it out.I made a Jedi Knight, and I'm enjoying the beta.

Ektris Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 It'd be the "new" Han Solo Trilogy, then. The "old" one is now refered to as the "Han Solo Adventures." (Sorry for the late reply; didn't notice anyone had posted in here.)So to those of you who played in the TOR beta - would you say what you've experienced of the game has made you want it enough to justify paying the subscription fee?

ThatHoboMan Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 I played in the TOR Beta this past weekend. I played as a Jedi Knight first, but then a glitch made me not able to play, So I switched to a Sith Warrior. I LOVE the Sith Warrior! The chat options were EPIC!

Kothra Posted December 10, 2011 Share Posted December 10, 2011 New Jedi Order?I haven't read the entire series but I've read most of it (though out of order).Traitor, by Matthew Stover is a definite purchase.

Ektris Posted December 10, 2011 Share Posted December 10, 2011 (edited) Legacy of the Force is good, sure, but I think you really need to know a lot about what happened in the New Jedi Order series to understand it. :PAnd Traitor is indeed a must for NJO. In addition to that I'd go with Vector Prime, A Unifying Force, and The Final Prophecy. Granted, that's literally the beginning and end, but if you're not going to just read the whole series, those are at least hte important parts haha.~|ET|~ Edited December 10, 2011 by Electric Turahk Quote E-T...

Ektris Posted January 1, 2012 Share Posted January 1, 2012 I just didn't like the parts with Durga, even though that's pretty much what the novel was supposed to be about. His plotline just seemed completely trivial and it just resolved itself. Daala and Pellaeon made an interesting pair... But throwing that in alongside Daala made it too busy.Oh, and Callista. I still don't like her. Especially because the rest of the book not about Durga or Daala is just spenting having her whine.Planet of Twilight was one of the books I got for Christmas and I plan on reading it when I finish the Correllian Trilogy (good read, by the way, if a little jumpy). I doubt it's going to change my opinion of her much.~|ET|~ Quote E-T... Phone home. "He walks among us, but he is not one of us." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stryker055 Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 I'm going to guess that Anakin, Ahsoka, and Obi-Wan will fight to liberate slaves from Separatist control. And their ability to defeat Count Dooku is apparently dubious. And Darth Sidious will have a chilling cameo. And Wolffe will be back.(All lifted from the new Star Wars Insider, BTW.)

that guy from that show Posted January 7, 2012 Share Posted January 7, 2012 The starfighter action in this episode was very satisfying and so was the queens death. Despite Dooku's poor animation his character was nice in this episode. Is the reson why he never weres a cape because it is hard to animate?

Ektris Posted January 7, 2012 Share Posted January 7, 2012 (edited) I loved the fighter scenes.And maybe it's just me, since I still haven't really caught up with this season (doubt I will; reading summaries was enough for now), but has the entire season shown Anakin doing a lot of things with his Force abilities that they rather shied away from before? Like, all of the ridiculous jumps and tearing things open... I think there was less of that before. I could be wrong, of course, and just noticed it since I hadn't watched in a while.~|ET|~ Edited January 7, 2012 by Electric Turahk Quote E-T... Phone home.

BenLuke Posted January 7, 2012 Share Posted January 7, 2012 Have those Z-95 Headhunter fighters appeared on the show before? They were cool.Did anyone else think the animation was a bit off in this episode? Or is it just the fact that I'm streaming it.
