The X Wing series is really good. The first four books are about Rogue Squadron, and the next four or so Wedge starts a new Wraith Squadron.

X Wing Rogue Squadron and X Wing The Bacta War are my two favorites. I haven’t listened to any of them, I read them back in the day.

Make sure to sample any audiobooks you buy. I listened to one of the new Thrawn novels, and couldn’t get through a half hour. The dialogue was practically inaudible, like it was coming over a scratchy walkie talkie.

One of the only audiobooks I’ve ever returned.

I enjoyed the X-Wing series, I, Jedi, and the New Jedi Order series.

I, Jedi takes place during the X-Wing series.

The first season isn’t fantastic. It’s like Space Aladdin, but the later seasons do get good.

There are a few episodes that are some of the best SW content.

I'm just... impressed is all. I have a bunch of the original comics from back in the day, toys, etc. but I never got into the expanded universe of books beyond the Brian Daley and Timothy Zahn books. I know that's pretty limited compared to the EU books, and where a lot of the stuff you guys are referring to comes from.

I always wanted to get into the RPG because it became so much more open, but I never invested in it. Mostly because I was a broke ass.

in short, cheers, I've loved Star Wars since it came out and even I have said - reverently - in this thread "damn, that is some nerd-ass shit."

The two part "Twilight of the Apprentice" being a notable one.

"Jedi Night", along with most of the other episodes in that season, was great too.

Twilight has an appearance from Vader as well, bringing his own mobile "high ground". It also plays into that trope of him being overly dramatic.

Ezra:  I'm not afraid of you!
Vader:  Then you will die braver than most.

Yep. The tail end of the final season had a lot of good content.

It was also not overly predictable, at times making it seem like the Empire might actually win.

The big push in the new Disney canon is that the New Republic and everyone else demilitarized and scrapped all their capital ships, fighters, space stations, etc.... it is so stupid.

In the original EU, the Empire didn't just disappear. It was a protected fight that went from a solid Empire to warlords holding different sectors and fighting amongst themselves and the New Republic along with a solid Imperial Remnant that was loyal to Palpatine. And in the end, the Empire didn't vanish, after 30 years of conflict between the Empire and New Republic, a peace treaty was signed and they become formal trade partners, etc... The New Republic incorporated a lot of former Imperial material into their armed forces. Heck, when Kaut fell to the New Republic, they kept pumping out Imperial MkII Class Star Destroyers for the New Republic Navy and even going into the Vong Invasion and the collapse of the New Republic and formation of the Galactic Alliance, former Imperial ships were being used.

That’s what I was thinking too. But then they kinda made a big deal out of Bo-Katan losing that shoulder piece in the previous episode. No telling which way they are going to take it.

It is giving depth to the Mandalorian clans and the Children of the Watch. Sure, some of the plot devices are tropes, but look a bit deeper.

Agreed. The only issue was one that wasn't too noticeable and that was the legs. It looked like they were pretty regular when the camera wasn't close up.

Disney is connecting everything. So of course Mando isn't going to answer everything in one episode or season. What happens in this will have a ripple effect to other shows.

The idea that you could completely disarm in a galaxy that size doesn't make sense, except for one factor.  Space Wizards.  If you take the idea that the entire galaxy became total retards about security because the Jedi would just show up in time to deal with whatever threat because "the Force," then it kinda makes sense. Only with Palpatine's aid did the Separatists and Dooku manage to arm up in secret. Think of the Jedi like the ultimate CIA, and everyone grew dependent on them for a thousand years. Now, of course the New Republic doesn't have many Jedi, but people are creatures of habit and politicians are dumb.

My understanding was...the NR was doing a 90% draw down in their military force...but the local planets and systems would establish their own defense forces to cover their territory with the NR being called in if the issue was too big for them to deal with alone.

The New Republic was pushing the Russan Reformation, a period of time in the Old Republic where the Republic didn't have a military force. In fact, leading up to the Clone Wars, the Russan Reformation was in effect and you saw it during Episode I. The Republic sent two Jedi on a Judicial Ship. They didn't send a military force to break the Trade Federation's blockage.

Under the Ruusan Reformation, systems and sectors were supposed to have local defense forces. The biggest thing is, those forces became like American state militias after the US Civil War. A bunch of drinking clubs that were worthless.

The Aftermath series.


This is from Wookieepedia but it sources where the info comes from.
https://starwars.fandom.com/wiki/Planetary_defense_forces?so=search#cite_note-Aftermath-7

New Republic era

In the aftermath of the New Republic's victory over the remnants of the Galactic Empire, the Senate passed the Military Disarmament Act. While the act kept the New Republic Defense Fleet as the largest defense force in the galaxy, it greatly reduced its size and capabilities,[1] as the New Republic preferred to bolster the training and funding for the local planetary defense forces.[7]

I agree with that spoiler.  I thought the two BB episodes were great, and the animation of the action sequences was fantastic. It always makes be wonder WTF is going on with some of the lame episodes in a season when they clearly are capable of making great stuff.

Mandolorian was pretty great too, and while I like Bo Katan and am very interested in where the story is going, it's a little annoying that this is this is pretty much her show now.  Been a long time since we've heard the phrase "I can bring you in warm, or I can bring you in cold," and it shows.  Don't get me wrong here, I am really enjoying Mandolorian over all, but I'm definitely missing some gritty Mando bounty hunter.

I thought the TK Shock Troopers looked pretty sharp. A nice evolution from the Clone Shock Trooper design.

Anyone else notice that at least half of the problems from the bad batch could be solved by leaving someone on the ship or having an autopilot?

Anakin’s Deleted Fight is 10X CRAZIER than what we saw


Say what you will about Hayden but the dude can swing a sword like crazy, this is what the Doku and Anakin fight should’ve been. Also, I’ve always liked Hayden.
