Commander to Lord : These Yub Yub's, (takes a bite), exquisite... And this fizzing drink here, I am not familiar with it, though I sense it would be the proper accompaniment to these burgers. But I must inform you again that my idea for the fried potato wedges has been rejected by Yub Yubs INC R&D department. Schutta's all I must confess... They should be chambered...

Outstanding investigative work... And on a very obscure character I might add... Sadly, I can not conquer with this guess based on two facts, at least in my opinion. 1). The Secret Apprentice will have a choice to make, either taking light or dark. This is very congruous to George Lucas' vision in the fall redemption motif that BlueBard so wisely put forward. This contradicts the stated facts in Kam's Bio, however, these could be altered, though I strongly doubt it. 2) The Secret Apprentice will not survive TFU... At least to any extent where he might be able to effect Star Wars canon. Now I again will concede this is only conjecture on my part. Now, addressing Anakins Father soling being the Force... However much I would love to throughly embrace that as the way of it, as one of many motifs George has bored from world relegions, He has incorporated Evolutionary aspects into his Universe. Now he does concede that the forces almost seems to have a sense of it's own, but unfortunately, the naturalistic course of evolution does not co-exist well together with a sentient supernatural force. We must then therefore assume that the Force can not contain any element of "intelligence" therefore making it impossible for it to will Anakin into existence. Things like purpose, destiny, good and evil, consequently, become relative to that view of the beholder. Chancellor Papaltine eluded to this by stating good and evil are merely a point of view...

{Event Horizon arrives at the Ultimate Weapon site. Jax boards a shuttle, then leaves Horizon and lands in one of the completed Hangar Bays onboard the Death Star.} Commander to Commander Gree: Good to see you brother. Please inform our master I have obeyed his summons and await his presences at His convenience. Gree: Very well Commander, follow me. : I am amazed at the significant progress made from even my last visit. I believe that one day, the Insurrectionists will tremble in abject horror as the looming shadow of doom draws neigh over any of their hidden strongholds... Gree: Still think your some kind of lofty poet, don't you... : Schutta... I appreciate good prowes... It's far more menacing than just being a poppet with a big gun. Gree: Just wait in the Mediation lounge. Theres Yub Yub snacks.

Commander to ImperialScouts: Belay my last order Lt. I have received overriding orders... Remain on Tyrant until Alpha team can be extracted from the surface. I must request from there that you remain in your quarters. Please believe me that I would take no pleasure in ordering that request. But I promise you that you will understand upon your arrival. Commander to Alpha Team: (SGT VBBN and SGT Inertia) Men, prepare your troops for rapid extraction. We will conduct an orbital strike once the surface is clear to lessen the Rebels desire to return to these facilities. Once you are embarked onboard Tyrant, please keep a respectful eye on the Lieutenant until your arrive at the secured location. Congratulations Chief and Chief Inertia. Commander to SCM The Force: Prepare for your trip.

I wish we had gotten that instead of the hyperdrive ring... Well almost hope. Lovely design. ***300*** ("This is Madness! Madness? This is Star Warrrsss....") ***300***

Commander to Lt Imperial Scouts: Yes Lt. I have another mission for you of great importance. I am sure you are vaguely familiar with the planet Fresia. It has been under intense scrutiny since members of the Incom Cooperation defected to the Rebellion, bringing with them the accursed designs of the starcraft your former acquaintances frequent. Recently, an operative of mine discovered that the design improvements for your stealth-X program originated there. I want those engineers neutralized, or if possible, extracted to a secured location and then exploited so that we can find a weakness in it's designs. This is extremely vital. Our RUMOR's program gives us a distinct tactical advantage in the skies... I want to increase those strengths if possible. We have only one name... Kara Dodanna. Commander to Grand Moff : Sir, I must report terrible news... The furball inhabitants of Kashyyyk are in an uproar! It would appear word of you meat reconstitution program has been leaked back to them by a group of Rebel Infiltrators. Besides the numerous and incredibly powerful Garrisons on Kashyyyk, the walking rugs have managed to shut down the fur manufacturing facilities, quickly driving up the prices for quality Yub Yub rugs... And now it seems the rippling effect is causing food shortage in our breeding facilities on Endor as well. I am sending our crack team of VBBN and Inertia to investigate once they have made their final reports from Polis Massa. I will also be sending Senior Clone Medic THE Force down there for good measure. They will be at your disposal as the Senior officer in that sector. Commander to Admiral TK and General Casewindu: Sir's; I would suggest for the moment that we resume our methodical search for the last remaining component's of the Rebellion. I will shortly be heading back to the "secure location" to discuss a few programs of interest I have with Lord . So far, my tracking efforts have provided little concrete evidence for locations in which to target, so we must be patenant... but those tracking devices are still out there...

Well, we do know one thing by way of proxy on that, She would have to be Human... But that still remains to establish what time frame TFU occurs, as we do not know at what point TFU begins, other than that it is set during the dark times. It could be very well toward the end of that time period, seeing as how the Storm Troopers armor is evolved to near ABY specs... There are AT-ST and TIE/in featured in the trailers, and for bloody sakes, he bring down an entire ISD... so you can bet its not right after the purge begins!

Re-release you say? Could it be a Death Star mayhaps... Nobody could get that excited over a release of Hoth... Sure a great battle pack it twas, but not that hot... hope thats not being too cold ... I'm calling Death Star!

Not a bad idea to wait... I was really lucky this Christmas, and got the Death Star when it was on sale for $150 from, Amazon (with free shipping)... Which btw make me wonder if a deal like that will happen for the Falcon. I love the Brick, no doubt, but $500 dollars for the "biggest hunk of junk in the Galaxy" doesn't fit my mojo. And I would just love to pick up a second ISD to re-enforce the constant sagging mess that is my beloved vessel of all time!

That is exciting... Because if thats true, the story line then HAD to be changed... Why would you rewrite something like that... Every fan of Star Wars would have gone ape pooh if the Apprentice was Qui-gon's son! That would have been awsume... But then throws out the likelihood of the Qui-Gon theory as well by proxy. But I do think General Kota has definite coolness possibilities all the same! Another possibility then... Darth Trump (Donald Trump) (For the dumb theories )

Commander to Lt Imperial Scouts: Request granted, look out your port and starboard side shield's. (sees 3 stbd, 3 port ominous looking, flat black painted TIE fighters...) They are Radar Undetectable Multi-Mission Over-coated Reflec's, A standard TIE that has been radically fine-tuned to reduce emissions making them neigh on undetectable by the most advanced radar and detection suites. Once you have proven to us a bit more your loyalty to the Empire, I may grant you a more exquisite view, but please understand the delicate situation you are in... At one time, I had vowed to require each drop for drop in blood a price for the loyal denizen's you spilled on Carida, though I proudly admit having you as a loyal vassal to the Imperial Navy serves a much more desirable alternative. You have raised a disturbing question however... On the whereabouts of the citizens of Polis Massa. I can wager but three likely scenarios, and a fourth which would be truly disturbing. One, they may have left mass exodus in fear of reprisal from the Empire. Two, they have joined forces with the Rebels, and therefore have now forfeited any rights or claims to Polis Massa. Three, they where wiped out by the Rebel Forces... And four, they might still be down threre.. Hiding. I will allow Alpha team with Sgt.'s Inerita and VBBN to finish their sweeps. Commander to Sgt Inertia and Sgt VBBN: Status update. Comscan reports no other life forms down there. Lt ImperialScouts has raised a startiling question that requires a definite answer... Be extremely cautious, but we can have no mistakes... Learn the whereabouts of the population of Polis Massa... (relays the 4 possible senerios) Good luck boys... I am sending down additional supplies and a prefab Yub Yub mess hall... Looks like meats back on the menu boys...

Ah yes... Begun this debate has... As my good friend would opine. Vader_son, It wouldn't be wise to trend upon the trim of cloak surrounding your daddy's nicker, not that he couldn't handle it himself... But if we go by your own theory... Using the stated books hypothis... Well, then there are countless new Jedi, created at will it would seem, to fill the never ending annals of the "dark times" literature. For that matter, and I could state a few others... Why would Obi wan then refer to them as the dark times in the first place... Sure, you got oppression; sure, a whole lot of injustice going round for the non-human denizens of the Empire, but aside from the force, I do not think they got satellite out in them hills. We must then not set a defined number, on anyones fingers, or toes for that matter, on would be targets for Vader's hunt. simonjedi: You are correct that you will find him whilst playing Vader on level one... But his story is still way open... Vader: I heard not the name of the Apprentices fathers name, but even with that... and that could also just be a surrogate father... When I was watching the game preview on Spike, they specifically dropped the "S" last name, then pretended to be all hush hush... And Lucas is never stupid ... I will flog myself now for insulting the real villain, I mean master, of this plot... But I think Lucas will leave that Skywalker tie in, and it will lead to the Live Action... Lucas, even though he leaves loose ends like breadcrumbs, like to tie them up just as much to get himself home.

Nope, same Jedi wez are talkin bout... But I disagree about the stronger part, or the most jedi killed part. Order 66 brought down the token population of the Jedi... but Vader had 18 years to hunt down the rest, of which we may see only small sampling in the live action series, though that remains doubtful. And if you throw TFU into the mix... Vader uses force lightning apparently from the game talk I've seen. But force lighting aside, which is a powerful gift... Who's more menacing... than the original man in black...

What , how dare you insinuate that Emperor Papaltine is a eunich... you shall pay.... But you argument is also slightly off kilter... How would Papaltine know to have made a better apprentice when Anakin was the best Aprentice... even scared and broken, he managed to route the vast majority of remaining known Jedi... Ya, I know that the books need a token hidden Jedi for a vehicle of wisdom, but canonically so far there where only two! But hence the reason to discuss the topic... We shall see... Jim Bean... we shall see.

Commander to Lt Imperial Scouts: Good advice. Report back to Tyrant. I am interested in the computer transmissions you found onworld. Also, it will give us some time to reevaluate the situation on next possible points of attack. If you would please, I would greatly appreciate your insight in our next strategy briefing on Horizon. My CO will advise you further upon your arrival. But first give those old transmissions a good once over.

I would say the first slave one, at the time... was awsume... subsequently, Jango's and the Re-release only made it look pathetic by comparison, though I don't complain about the later... A shame too, cause I always liked how the older Millennium Falcon looked already... yet now looking back, wish the first Slave One had been more acurate... And oh... to be so small that the Cloud Car could look scary to ya...

If no one objects... You have been faithfully on training assignment, and, upon reporting back, had been dispatched by General Windu to assist Inertia. You guy's really do make a good team. You've just been quiet up until now... Though I am not sure what more can be done with Polis Massa... The rebels left it pretty abruptly.

Commander to Lt Imperial Scouts: Luteniant... My Comscan officer confirms no detected life form signals down there either than yours and Sgt Inertia's team. Proceed with extreme caution... If there is movement, it can only be androidic in nature... And to my knowledge, the Rebellion has yet to add a significant Battle Droid contingent to their order of battle. Commander to Sgt Inertia: Good thinking Sgt, give er a good clean sweep down fore and aft... I want you all on a short tether, however. If things brake, I want your teams extraction to be quick so we can tackle the insurrectionist forces. Event Horizon has been tasked to investigate a reported incident between a small freighter and the an Imperial Cargo Ship, the Endeavor, near here. I leave your team in capable hands... Tyrant will remain in orbit should the need arrive.

Not bragging, , I have 3... I bet there are some of you that have way more. For those of you whom do not... I hope you get there this time round!!! Got lucky on closeout sales... I also have 4 AT-TE... Pictures forth coming once I get over my cold a bit more.

Ha! Even in a Time long ago, in a galaxy Far Away, our friend I scream Clone has once again demonstrated that the rebels will go to what ever lengths to bring chaos to an ordered Galaxy . Exquisite custom, a true delight for the eyes... and hopefully a series into the dark realm that is Rebel bootlegging! "Tell meee... what ya gonna do..oh what ya gonna do when da clones come for you"

hehe Bp's for me. I think this weekend I am going to take some inspiration from the Custom RGS thread and throw a couple teams together for my RGS's. That very reason is driving me insane waiting for the v19's though. Lucas was a genius when he devised the color scheme idea. Also... and this thought has recently occurred to me...(hey, I'm slow... and I like it) but I used to have a problem; I didn't like displaying my EpII phase 1's with my now growing army of phase II clones. But with all the variance between the different rank and file clone troopers, it's not as big a deal to me. But believe me, old fur-ball , I share your point on detail. So, Champaign wishes for CW Battle Pack dreams!

Commander to Lt IS: Proceed with extreme caution then. I am thinking that they might have sabotaged any assets to large to move and therefore were left behind. I doubt as well that they would be foolish enough to leave any telling signs or working computers which may be of use to discern their next location. To be honest, I express my concerns only for your personal safety, and that of my men, but I do believe you are great asset to the Empire. If you can aid us in our combined cause in something I may not be aware of, proceed with it. With my respect, Lt! Commander to Admiral TK: Sir, we have an undisclosed asset that is currently reporting the Rebels position, therefore we still have the scent, but when we have a confirmed location, I believe we must strike with "shock and awe". Unless they decide on a civilized location, of which then we must then be much more surgical. ***Imperial Notice*** Let it be known throughout the Galaxy, a former Rebel Sympathizers has been rescued from beneath the rubble of the Imperial Academy at Carida. Instrumental to the terrorist command structure, even rumored to be a high ranking Commander of Insurrectionists forces... This former prisoner was instrumental to the cause, aiding in the flushing out of a terrorist cell, and driving the rebel kath deeper into the cold embrace of the Outer Rim. For his heroic efforts, the former Imperial officer has been reinstated into the Galactic Navy Officers Core, and even now, Ladies and Gentlemen, is at this very hour shearching diligently to bring his former lackeys under the powerful heel of our valiant Empire. Father Papaltine be praised!!! And in other news... Yub Yub...

hmmm... I kinda like this idea... and here is why. This will give all of you guys with mad custom skillz a chance to actually make your MOC shine, like they should. I don't really wish to distract you from your original idea, and I might actually participate, after Kamino that is, cause isn't around before than, but may I make this polite suggestion. This will not work if you do it as a communication like thread. Truth is, each of us in the TIE Army thread is reacting off each other's posts once we have a story line. And don't be to hard on yourself. Posting in a thread like the "official TIE Army Thread" just takes some "putting yourself in the moment" type writing. Like when we where all kids, or if as for some of you still are playing with stick imagining they were ligtsabers... Simple term would be pretending! My polite suggestion would be a submission like contest thread... Not for prizes either, just the format mind. An editor suggests the theme for the month, week, biweekly, whatever, than people build their pictures. After the submission time limit expires, with possible dialog for that said picture is made, than the editor, whom ever we can find that would be dum... I mean brave enough to tackle this endeavor, would piece them together. This would be allot of work, so I think that it must be a more senior trusted person, and I exclude even myself from that great pool of potential talent. But I make this only as a suggestion, because even I wish something like this existed... No undue pressure on Tarful either, because I know his intentions are still noble, but even he would agree that this is no easy task, requires oversight, and would be much easier, contents wise, if more people could contribute. But please, my other dear contributors, stay positive even in your disagreements with a thread like this. It is a very interesting and potential fun addition to this wonderful website!!! *** I'm , and I endorse this idea!***

Commander : Everything is in place, and we are ready for hyperspac... COMSCAN: Sir... urgent communique; ***Imperial Operative: Delta Squad (shadow fist)*** To Commander 501st: Sir, we urgently inform you that approximately a standard light cycle ago, the Rebel fleet abandon their stronghold on the remote moon world of Polis Massa and entered hyperspace. Imperial intelligence has not been informed, at this time is the only message we can relay. We fear... *** Transmission ends; encryption foxtrot Omega foxtrot: code clearance obsidian.*** Commander {walks off bridge} Captain Vhrils: Alert Admiral TK and General Windu. I will send a personal communique to Lord .

Commander to Admiral TK: Awaiting final orders then sir. And you orders shall be cared out to your expectations. Lt. Imperial Scouts will cooperate!
