New day, new previews.

Rose provides a way to convert shields into +1/1s, moisture farmer is a simple (wo)man healing your base for cheap, peacekeeper stacks both raid and restore on a 5hp frame. Top Target and Price both let you slap a bounty on an enemy unit for a color-appropriate boon. Dengar and Punishing both play around upgrades (chiefly bounties) on enemy units - pairing naturally with the previously spoiled red/black leader Bossk, who wants a similar playstyle.

One more, The Armorer. Here's your payoff card for the upgrade-driven Mandalorian effects.
>>
>>92740522
Why not? It makes way more sense for him to be there and work with Thrawn for a long time, even if not officially. It makes no sense for him to be so loyal to him all those years later in Mandalorian, if they had only started working together like a few days before Thrawn got space whaled. There is simply no time to build up that loyalty. It is more interesting if Pellaeon was Thrawn's agent for years before he was reassigned to him officially. It also makes Thrawn more interesting, as he has several allied groups who do not know of each other.

Also, ventresstroon, I doubt you even read those novels. I really, really doubt it. As usual, you have pillaged talking points from reddit, cause you are low IQ subhuman filth.

I don't get bitching about niggers in star wars, they're a certified OT classic. Historical settings where they weren't present or settings based on such, sure, complain about niggers, but it makes no sense in star wars.

>so loyal to him all those years later in Mandalorian,
But that's just more of Dave ignoring the fucking books. As in he's literally just nostalgiabaiting EU fans rather than coherently building the story from canon lore. The guy in Mandalorian should have been Eli Vanto.
>>
>>92740955
No one cares. Maybe Zahn should have consulted them when they were making Rebels and introduced Pellaeon earlier. And Eli Vanto is doing his shit in Chiss Space.
>>
>>92740644
read thrawn treason you fucking pleb

During the time he's an Admiral Thrawn doesn't command a fleet just the 96th Task Force. After his promotion to Grand Admiral he's given the 7th Fleet with multiple Star Destroyers among other, smaller, supporting vessels. Yet in TotE we see the 7th Fleet. So that's something that doesn't allign with the canon books. And Pellaeon serves Grand Admiral Savit until the events in Thrawn: Treason So to see him working for Thrawn and being part of his cadre of officers in the 7th Fleet is also a contradiction of the books. I guess Filoni wanted Pellaeon there instead of Karyn Faro and/or Eli Vanto because he has plans for the former in the Mando universe.

its not a deliberate contradiction, its a very obvious "I havent read these books"
Eli Vanto should have been there instead

It's foolish to expect TV people to read fucking licensing books. Never happened. George didn't read a single EU book. None of the show runners or movie directors read the EU, and they shouldn't. It's for smelly consooming nerds. Star Wars is film and TV first. It's the story group and "lore masters" like Pablo Hidalgo who should read that shit and consult writers/directors/showrunners. So either there is no story group, or it doesn't work. And, of course, Pellaeon works much better on screen and fits perfectly with TV continuity, as opposed to some obscure twink no one knows about. It is time to accept that everything is its own canon, and "canon" itself has always been nothing more than a marketing gimmick. To convince you, the consumer, that these fake stories "matter." Star Wars fags don't read them for the sake of fun and enjoyment in and of itself, no, it's this obsession with impeccable encyclopedical accuracy, "continuity" and references in a space wizard franchise for children.

Oh right, I apologize for expecting anyfuckingbody from the Lucasarts story group to do their fucking job or for showrunners making television for Star Wars to actually know anything about what the fuck they're making.

They do know what they're making. Otherwise, they'd be in this thread, shitposting their lives away, as opposed to making multimillion dollar television.

Lucasarts does not exist. It was a videogame subdivision that got shut down in 2013.

1. didnt george read some of the EU which is why he put aayla secura, quinlan vos in the movies?

2. as of like, 2 months ago we had the showrunner and lead writer for the bad batch say that they read dark disciple because they wanted ventress in the show and wanted to get her right (see: the hair, yellow lightsaber, facial scars), I dont want to rag on about it but its quite literally an example that proves your second point wrong

however, I will add that it seems like if a showrunner or whoever wants to stick to canon because of some novels or otherwise, they have to intentionally go out of their way to do so. with the story group just doing jack shit (do they even still exist???)

No, he didn't. He famously said that he didn't read a single novel, and he would never ever read them. It was a parallel universe, like Star Trek TV and novels. He saw a picture of Aayla hanging on the wall at Lucasfilm and decided to include her in the movie, because he liked the design and he needed to add some diverse ayy Jedi into the arena sequence. Same would have happened with Darth Talon in his ST. He liked the design, but it would have been Darth Talon in name and design only — completely different from her Legacy version. He was more receptive to comic books, because that was a visual medium, and he appreciated the designs. But he never ever read a novel. And the story of the comic books didn't really matter to him, as we'd seen.

>2. as of like, 2 months ago we had the showrunner and lead writer for the bad batch say that they read dark disciple because they wanted ventress in the show and wanted to get her right (see: the hair, yellow lightsaber, facial scars)
No, Ventresstroon, it doesn't really prove me wrong. You forget that Dark Disciple was an 8-episode arc of TCW. They literally had all the concept arts, story reels, scripts and assets, which were then used by Golden to write the book. She didn't invent that story and those designs, it was based on the scripts and TCW concept arts and reels. And they still got the hair wrong, and they got the saber wrong. So no, it does not prove anything. And yes, since they literally brought the character back from the fucking dead and shat on the story in the first place, getting her basic appearance right is the least they could do, lol. This is not the 'W' you think it is. This is extremely shallow and pointless example. Try bad batch subreddit, where you'll get updoots for sucking off Corbett's stinky clit.

>Asajj Ventress, Fennec Shand, and Emerie Karr Spotlighted in Interview With ‘Bad Batch’ Producers

>Beginning with Asajj Ventress, producer Brad Rau detailed how much of the staff was enthusiastic about bringing the character back for animation. Rau also connects back to the novel Dark Disciple— a key part of Ventress’ story— and how the team honored that, while also bringing the character back for important story purposes
>“We love Ventress! I’ll just say, without going into too many details, as a creative team — not just me and Jen — once we knew this was possible, we got really, really excited. A lot of talk went into it, a lot of thought went into it. Even for the design, we looked to unfinished episodes of Clone Wars, the ones that were the inspiration for Dark Disciple —there were already designs that were created and some early story reels.
>We wanted to honor that look — her incredible hair, that incredible lightsaber. “What color is that lightsaber!?” Oh my god, there’s so much going on. A lot of that came from [Clone Wars’ unfinished episodes], so we were really, really excited to be able to honor that, and inBad Batch for a very specific reason [as part of] Omega’s story.

It's funny — for being a self-proclaimed, obnoxious ventressfag, you seem to be completely and utterly media illiterate when it comes to understanding her story and character arc. Why would she make a hilt that is practically identical to the one that Dooku gave her? She did not make those. Dooku gave her them. Those were symbolic of her path as a Sith Assassin, as a tool of the Dark Side, as Dooku's tool, that he then threw away. Why does her new hilt is practically identical to those given to her by the man who ruined her life and fucking killed her in the end? Her new hilt was meant to show that it was new her on a new path. Yet, visually, the character has now regressed. This is really basic storytelling. Any basically competent writer is able to tell these things. Is this really Corbett's idea of "honoring" the story? I really doubt she even read it. I doubt she watched TCW beyond Bad Batch episodes, given the depiction of Nala Se, Echo and going out of their way to never properly mention Fives in the series, despite having Echo, AZI and Rex in the fucking show together.

I just watched Tales of the Empire with a buddy and is it just us or was the series really boring to anyone else? As soon as they started to move in an interesting direction they ruined it by making it predictable, safe and boring. Really felt like they did the south park thing where they put a chick in it and made it lame and gay. Also bad batch felt like such a waste of time, nothing mattered in the end. Imagine if project necromancer had been a way to make starkiller canon or something.

Then why didn't she make a curved one again, originally? Man, you are so dumb. Not even trying to offend you. Just stating the fact. Your "arguments" (they can hardly even be called that) fall apart instantly. You do not think what you say even for 5 seconds. This is embarrassing.

No, they are identical to the ones she had before because it is recognizable. Instead of designing a new hilt, they brought back something you know™ It doesn't make sense for the character to do so, however. Why would she make a hilt that is designed by the man who ruined her life, why would she want to stick to his lessons and techniques, when she had already developed her own once she abandoned that old life? Why would they want to regress the character? But that's what naturally happens when you literally bring back the character from the dead after their character arc had been complete and they are literally past their expiration date. She's just there. Now clap, like a retarded seal. You won't have a problem with that.

Filoni said Lucas wanted it changed because Korriban sounded similar to Coruscant. So Moraband was born. But I'm pretty sure Dave and both continuities say that Korriban is still canon, it's just that similar to real life countries or cities it's gone by different names over the years. Like Tokyo originally being Edo or the earliest name for Britain being Albion.
>>
How come George Lucas never read any of the Star Wars (EU) novels and never will?
>>
>>92742592
K and R are my favorite consonants so therefore Korriban is obviously the better name.
Also Moraband is based on the word moribund, which is a word I strongly dislike because of the vowels it uses. I and then U is weird and wrong. B tries to hold the word together, but it isn't strong enough on its own.

He might've read Alan Dean Foster's novelization and Splinter of the Mind's Eye back in the day. Though they're all based on his drafts anyway. But most of the other Star Wars novels released in the 90s and he was busy with Young Indiana Jones, Phantom Menace and raising his kids by then. Echoing the other anon George is a very visual guy, he collected the old Marvel Star Wars comics and read the Dark Horse stuff, would buy prints of the artwork too. So most of his exposure to the EU was though those things. So it's possible he's familiar with the Thrawn trilogy and Dark Empire through the comic book adaptations.

I suppose he could've read the Han Solo and Lando Calrissian adventure novels too since those were well before the 90s and he liked the pulpy stuff. But I don't think he had much of an opinion on the post-ROTJ EU.

That's how Zahn has been writing him for like 30 years. The whole idea is that he isn't your Tarkin-like bad guy who does cruel shit for the sake of it.

No shit, he's loyal to the Chiss before everything else and just uses the Empire for their ends. Core to the character.
>some bad guys called Grysks no one actually cares about and are boring as hell compared to the Vong
Essentially the same as other threats in the Unknown Regions seen in the Outbound Flight or Duology, regional bad guys, not the Vong.

It's very weird how people suck off the trilogy while also shitting on what the author does with his characters in later works. Are the prequels a George Lucas fanfic?

Hunter actually aged really well for a clone, he's in good shape and has all his hair despite being in his 60s. Meanwhile Rex, Wolffe and Gregor look a lot worse in their 50s. Is it similar to Obi Wan, Owen and Beru in that living on a desert planet adds ten years of aging or did they just hit the sauce hard.

Yeah, because Rex, Wolffe and Gregor were actually fighting. Hunter is a pussy coward faggot who retreated to his faggot ass Hawaii island at the first opportunity he got. What a little bitch. There is no character I respect less than Hunter. Reluctant, selfish, one-note, bland, boring pussy. He is a disgrace to Jango Fett's genes. I unironically fucking despise him. And the rest of the batch, for that matter.
>>
>>92743075

>>92743135
Hunter had a family and a daughter/little sister. I disliked a lot of things about the Bad Batch Finale but him making sure Omega was safe until adulthood wasn't one of them. His goal was to make sure that she and presumably any Clone Cadets/kidnapped younglings he could find would have better childhoods than he or his brothers did.
Meanwhile Rebel Clones while heroic are still fucking tragic even if there's a bittersweetness to that tragedy. They unwittingly betrayed the galaxy either under faulty info or against their wills depending on your preferred take on order 66. They're made as weapons, told that they're sole purpose is to be weapons and the only way they can do good is by being disposable weaponry for the good guys. Fighting for a future that they know they will most likely be unable to take part in because they're made solely for war. Even if they understand the difference between a right cause and a wrong cause they can never stop fighting until they die at the age of 50 or die in combat in a desperate attempt to atone for facilitating the rise of the Empire. So it's nice to have a few pull a Cut and just settle down and be family men.

I don't care. I hate Hunter. All I can think about is Rex & co struggling off-screen, trying to free their brothers, meanwhile that piece of shit faggot wants to do side-quests cuz muh OMEGA. With his skills, with his experience, they opt for irrelevant bullshit, while the entire galaxy, and their fucking BROTHERS suffer. This isn't what SW is about. Terrible characters, terrible show. It's all about Omega. She's the black hole of this fucking series. It's not even Hunter who wanted to rescue the regs from Tantiss, it's fucking Omega "I LEFT THEM BEHIND HUNTAH, I NEED TO DO THIS HUNTAH!" Omega decides this "man's" entire agency. And that's been the case for the entire show. This is garbage. I want to watch stuff that is heroic, inspiring, not this bullshit. This isn't interesting. Why is this a show?
>him making sure Omega was safe until adulthood wasn't one of them
Not due to him, but due to the writers' utter lack of intelligence and common sense with them fucking off to Pabu after what they did. Hilarious. I cannot understate how much I loathe these characters and this show.
>>
>>92743414
I don't know why they went back to Pabu. The Empire already found them there once. That entire city and planet may as well be a burn notice for their security now. But the Empire just ignores it because... reasons? After Palpatine himself declared nothing was more important than the Tantiss project.

Cause this show is dumb as shit. Cause it was written by a woman. Cause they were hell bent on their happy ending™ and they decided to bend the universe to make it happen. This is why it feels so forced, fake, insincere, not earned, contrived. That finale had more holes than a Swiss cheese. No stakes, no consequences, no impact, no urgency, no balls. None of it makes any sense if you think about it for more than 30 seconds. It's just bad. It's appalling just how many people gobbled it up. This entire show was a giant waste of fucking time and resources. Baffling.
>>
>>92743067
No, he was never loyal to the Chiss lmao. He saw them as too small-minded and focused on themselves. He was literally exiled by them. Then Zahn later decided to turn them into a Mary Sue species that his character can be loyal to, instead of his original goals.

Its a Filonization, where you can never have true loyalists to the Empire, even though Thrawn's whole idea initially was to act as an embodiment to the military side, while Tarkin is political and Palpatine/Vader Sith. Except, ironically, Filoni has portrayed Thrawn much closely to his original character.

Nu-Thrawn books aren't Thrawn, they're an excuse to do Moffat-esque Sherlock stories in Star Wars.
>>
>>92743586
>Zahn later decided to turn them into a Mary Sue species that his character can be loyal to, instead of his original goals
I remain convinced this was done deliberately because Zahn did not like the Disneyfication of Star Wars and the Empire, so he decided to see how much he could get away with (turns out, whatever he wanted).

>>
>>92743612
There's an unwritten agreement of 'we'll ignore you and you'll ignore us', it seems, yes. But if Zahn had balls he'd have made the Empire of the Hand as a more reasonable Empire, instead of a Mary Sue race with their own loli Force navigators. Chiss should be nothing more than a small tetriary power like they were in Legends, a space Denmark that would get immediately bodied even by the Hutts if it tried anything.
>>
>>92743631
>Mary Sue race with their own loli Force navigators
I don't see the problem.

Because a more nuanced Empire with different characters and different goals is a much better and interesting thing to watch/read about, rather than Space Denmark becoming a galactic superpower because of the actions of Moffat Sherlock in blue paint.
>>
>>92743586
You're delusional. First off, he always wanted to use the Empire against the greater threat of the Vong first and foremost - If he'd thought the New Republic could have done it, he would have supported them. Plus he created the EotH as a buffer state for the Chiss.

However, even with all that, Thrawn was still more loyal to the Empire than "filonized", because he actually believed in the structure of their government and the ideals it was supposed to represent. Which is why he actually took the protection of it's citizens and the survival of it's soldiers seriously, unlike Rebels Thrawn where he goes "lmao, my plan is to bomb my own fucking city and production facility".

The thing is, he never thought the New Republic could've done anything. He saw the Empire as the way forward for the Galaxy. He saw it as a guiding hand, and that he should be its commander. In short, he was an authoritarian, but not a cartoon villain sort of one.

Now, to avoid the twatter mob, Zahn's nu-books shy away from this depiction, which is why I say it isn't Thrawn. Thrawn is an Imperial, an epitome of an Imperial. He won't hesitate to enforce a dictatorship, and that's a good thing, generally, because he isn't part of the cookie-cutter good vs. evil paradigm.

As for
>bomb my own city
Yeah it was kinda silly, but you have to recognize that Lothal wasn't seen as an Imperial world. At least, not yet, it was a world under occupation, and due integration. Generally speaking, its expected for a planet that's born a local Rebel cell and is in close proximity to other Rebel worlds (check the map, Dac, Sanctuary, and future New Alderaan are right next door) to not be treated very well, even by a pragmatic Imperial.

I still have no idea why anyone posts Georgeisms as if they're authoritative. On any given commonly raised issue about the franchise you can think of, he has publicly and with an attitude of absolute confidence taken at least three positions, and at least two of those are completely mutually incompatible. It's obvious to anyone sane that he kept ~80% of this stuff inside his head and changed his mind about it constantly, your dementia-addled grandparents are a more reliable source of authority.

The only canon is headcanon, reasonable people just choose their own over someone else's.
>>
>>92744527
Exactly this. George makes shit up as he goes along. It even happens in the fucking movies themselves. Did you know, he actually regretted making Lucrehulks be CIS vessels in Episode III? Yeah, he wanted to emphasize the Trade Federation as a separate influencing faction that just backed the CIS, but wasn't part of it. That's why he basically had the Lucrehulks in TCW appear unpainted for the most part, and they only show up as part of CIS scenes in early episodes.

I don't need to tell you that this completely contradicts the movies themselves, where Nute Gunray is definitely, and clearly, part of the CIS. He still holds the rank of Viceroy of the Federation and a minor plot point is the fucking Siege of Cato Neimoidia that Plo Koon is taking part of. As in, the capital of the Trade Federation. Its being sieged by the Republic, because its CIS territory.

But for TCW, George attempted to retcon this entirely. He even planned on including them in Underworld. Which takes place, yes, during the reign of the Empire? How does this make any sense? I dunno lol. Dude retcons himself more frequently than he did anyone else.

Still doesn't change that he actually made good and engaging stories. Arguably as did the EU writers during his tenure. Give me George, Denning, Traviss any day of the week over Filoni , JJ Abrams, Rian Johnson and Chuck Wendig.

Rex's whole "clone rebellion" was just set dressing and wasn't intended to be this whole plotline that the show would follow (although I will agree it's an interesting idea)
the show has rex in it from time to time, but if you're going to have rex, you need to show what he is doing otherwise he seems pointless to be there
Rex is fighting against the injustices done to his brothers, of which them being disposed of and experimented on in tantiss is a big deal to him, but now those clones are freed and has chuchi backing him politically so he doesnt need to continue his fight as he got (or is getting) what he wanted
the clones get to settle down, chuchi makes a case that the clones have been treated like shit in the senate to give them pension plans (with emerie backing her claims)

the bad batch actually stuck its guns and focused on the bad batch, it didnt need legacy characters to come in and steal the show away from the main cast like maul did in TCW or basically everyone in rebels
the show never promised a clone rebellion
>>
>>92744677
If you believe he was gonna go full Sith instead of just regular old Sheev, then probably a split. Cadre of military officers try to overthrow him, claiming the clone is insane and not the real Palpatine.

If he's just regular old Sheevy P with Dark Side Elite as some new Inquisitors, essentially, things go back to where they were prior to Endor.

>>92744695

?
I complained about stun when the first two seasons aired too. I complained about misusage of commandos. I complained about them having DC-15 carbines instead of DC-17m. I complained that it is full of filler and Crosshair was the only one with depth to him. Take your meds, dumbfuck. The show always had problems and was inconsistent. But it peaked with Crosshair episodes in S2, Coruscant episodes and Tech's death. It was downhill from there.

to her, a clone is just replacable as theres millions more like them
it's why echo calls her out on this, echo knows about how the clones are close to each other as they're all brothers

additionally with the kids, she's not instantly betraying hemlock over them, she see's that they're in a prison and believes the only thing she can do in her power is to at least try to make their lives better while in there, which is why she gives eva the straw tooka doll and calls them by name if she needs to

I honestly would have forgiven turning the rest of the clone commandos into jobbers if they gave Scorch a good showing like they somewhat did in season 1, I would have even been somewhat accepting of things if they didn't kill him but they did and it's all around shitty, if Boss and Fixer ever show up their fates will be to job to make a new character go over.

reminder that we will NEVER get satisfying stories about Han, Luke, Leia, Lando, Chewie or the new republic because of Disney
>>
>>92746607
The New Republic in canon are all around dumb in the way they don't seem concerned about imperial remnants and their whole "we can't use this technology for good because the hecking Empire used it!" is beyond stupid and wasteful.
>>
>>92746628
in about 20 years all of the republic gets blown up by starkiller base. This is cannon and so I cannot give a single OUNCE of a fuck about what they do with the new republic. The emperor may have actually run a better regime because the sequels show wealthy planets profiteering through war still, they show slaves still, shitty planets like Jakku which should be an important place to the new republic rot.

In the prequels tattoine is shown as a failure of the republic and the jedi, its not on their front door so they don't care. They don't try to free the slaves and they don't care about child labour either, because its not in front of them
The jedi failed and let this be the status quo.

George always intended the new heroes of the new republic and jedi order to try and do better...

kys pedofag, if you need "fuckable omega" then look towards emerie

now baby yoda's main problem is that he's a baby
what does he do? he doesn't talk, he just sits around all day and occasionally uses the force, they cant do too much "action" with him because it looks dogshit because jon favearu has a hard-on for physical effects
so in season 3 (which shouldn't have happened to begin with and baby yoda is only in it because the majority of the viewerbase wouldnt watch the show without him) they give him a mech suit and he STILL practically does jack shit beyond pressing the haha funny yes button

he's at best, a liability
hell I also want to add that the movie is actually happening so theres gonna be some forced reason why mando goes to war again, I expect some orbital bombardment on his house while he's out getting milk and eggs

They probably think that, "beige/minimalist tan is realistic" or some bullshit like that. If they gave their new aliens some color, something eye-catching like the OTand PT did, then it wouldn't be awful. But the brown and flesh tone aliens are just boring and its sad becauseI know the practical designers are bored of the same color gradients andhave the ability to do creative design.

He'd shoot her dead. He only cared for Boba. None of his other genetic offshoots mattered to him. He wanted a son. He wanted an heir to his legacy. And Boba would do the same. He didn't give one crap about the clones. He was THE son of Jango. Omega is just another abomination. It would be actually easier for Boba to kill her. He hesitated with the clones, because they had the face of his father. But Omega is straight up wtf, so whatever.

It's obvious that they are more interested in their stuff, and some kind of next animated show is in the works. They won't waste their resources making something that is not theirs and something that they had cancelled in the first place. They could have done it so, so many times over a decade. They had so many opportunities. They chose not to. Although they do have assets, and even TOTE had a new Phase 2 Clone Trooper models for some reason, and new B2 and B1 and Commando droids models as well. But I really, really doubt it.

Maybe they're just releasing it on BluRay. Which would be nice. My Season 5 REMUX has delayed audio from the first original Warner Brothers BluRay batch, need someone to fucking fix that. And S7 on BluRay would be nice.

Yes, I noticed it as well. They had TCW's Coruscant Guard model at the beginning of Barriss' episode, but then you have new clone trooper and ES-trooper models for some reason, lol. The angular sharp shoulders look kinda ass, but the undersuit looks good. Weird design choices. Grand Inquisitor, for example, looks like some kind of blend between TCW and Rebels. He is not detailed enough to be TCW design, and he is also too smooth, so he is more like the Rebels one, but the brows and chin are angular, like TCW... We have concept arts of Pau'ans in TCW style from Crystal Crisis and they look way closer to ROTS Pau'ans, than TOTE Grand Inquisitor. GI's facial marks look like ass and they're too bright.
>>
>>92759425

Looks good, though I personally prefer Force Push to Reflex and Saber Throw, you do you.
The Medical Droid is good but the Vets might have troubles staying close to Luke if that's the plan.
Fleets are nice as mandatory Corp, but I'm not sure how they'll perform here. I feel like a unit of Ewok Slingers might be better.
The objectives, deployments look good, but Limited Visibility might be useful for Wookiees, Luke and Fleets in case your opponents has too many long-range units for Leia's bombardment to deal with.

That's a bummer, bought that rebel upgrade pack early so trying to use it for something kek
>Fleets are nice as mandatory Corp, but I'm not sure how they'll perform here. I feel like a unit of Ewok Slingers might be better.
I just think fleet troopers look cool and I like standby, but if Ewoks are that much better maybe I'll get them I haven't really looked at them

Anything that gets us more of based Dooku.

>>92759699
>Force Push
Force Push is not really to Disengage but rather to have an easier time Engaging, where Luke can't get shot. It is doubly useful in Hostage Exchange to hamper the hostage carrying unit. It can also get units out of cover for the rest of your army to shoot at. Force Push is pretty versatile imo.
>Medical Droid
It can work but Vets usually prefer to stand and shoot, defending a position rather than move around
>Fleets
Try them out, what I said are just suggestions. Both Ewoks and Fleets serve the same purpose in the end. Fleets hit harder and have their standby trick while Ewoks are slightly tankier.

Imperial citizens don't give a shit about our boys killing more Johnny Reb, and Johnny Reb won't be any more pissed off than he usually is.

Telekinesis is the most busted ability in basically any game ever. More so in games that let you actually use it the way it should be able to, like making a guy go that way, but make his head go the other way, until something gives.

A question for the degenerates in the thread but what do you think the most fuckable and least fuckable species in the Separatist Council are?
As a reminder the races consist of Neimoidian’s, Gossam’s, Skakoan’s, Kooriva, Muun’s, Quarren’s, Aqualish, Geonosian’s and the Holwuff.

>It's foolish to expect TV people to read fucking licensing books
I'm not a fan of most of the New EU, but this was supposed to be the big selling point of it: getting rid of tiered canon and creating a cohesive expanded universe that hung together. In this concept, if the TV people want to use book characters, then they should fit the books. That's the entire goddamn point. If they're just going to do whatever again, why even bother to pretend?

Even if it's stupid to believe they'd handle any of this correctly, anons aren't wrong to get mad that they fucked it up. When they clearly outline an positive, and then don't follow through, it's always okay to shit on them for it even if you never should've believed them to begin with.

There was a video interview with one of the designers on the sequel trilogy and they were asked about this design. It appently originated from some of JJ Abrams directives on TFA. First, he wanted practical aliens as much as possible. Second he wanted most to be clearly alien not just repaints with a prosthetic or two. Thirdly he wanted to highlight aliens that were in the resistance to show contrast with the first order.

Turns out getting a design that can meet all those requirements is difficult. If you go back and look at the original movies, big rubber mask aliens largely did not move that much or make complicated actions in wide shots or were operated with the help of puppeteers in close ups. Problem! That did not work with JJs frantic faster style. So the designers were then limited to a design that could be small enough to be carried on a lone human actor able to respond to JJs direction. That greatly limits the design for the body. JJ wants them actually doing things in the resistance meaning the actor has to actually have clear views of what they are interacting with further restricting the design of the head. You can see the nostrils are actually eye holes for the actor.

Next problem, is that its difficult to design a practical design that is clearly alien, that is actively interacting with the scene/cast but is not to distracting from the important bits that the audiance should be paying attention to. There is a reason that repainted actors with a prosthetic or two gets used so often. They immediately register as alien but since the human mind still see the similarities to what it sees every day it does not focus on it. So now they have the problem that they have this clearly alien design that is supposed to be everywhere doing something but the audiance is not supposed to focus on it. So they literally give it background colors. Lots of earth tone and beige. (The colors also fit in with JJA desire to go back to OT grit and grunge)

This makes a lot of sense.

I think we're thankfully past the worst of that stuff now?, but in that mid-teens era there was a real stigma around CGI and a big focus on praising practical effects among the "film-bro" crowd. Like when Fury Road came out and everyone wouldn't stop praising its focus on practical effects. (When in reality, lots of its effects were CGI or a blend of physical and CGI, and it was simply good because it was well made.) That was the exact kind of normie film-bro groupthink that JJ Abrams is susceptible to, so it's totally in-character for him to have been overly influenced by it and taken it too far. Especially since (and we're thankfully past this too) back when TFA was being made, anything that even *reminded* of the prequels was too taboo to touch with a 10 foot pole.

CGI is still fucking trash, in fact it's been looking worse and worse for years.
