  1. Ah Yes another Versus question, this one however is rooted in canon (and plus it's mine so I get to ask it ) We all know that in TCW Season 3 Sidious orders Dooku to eliminate Ventress due to the threat of their combined strength. Some time later in the show, Sidious absolutely has his way with Maul and Savage. My question is this, if at the moment Dooku abandoned Ventress they instead combined to take on Sidious, who would win? My somewhat education default of an answer is Sidious, but I think him emerging victorious yet not without physical damage is possible and thus a threat to his cover as Chancellor (and thus his overall plans). I also think Dooku & Ventress > Maul & Savage. Thoughts?
  2. Great analysis! Thanks. I do have a question per the quote below. Being stripped of their lightsabers makes sense as they were war prisoners. However after seeing the images below from Exiles Wooki page http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/File:Xoxaan_Muur.jpg http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/File:ExiledDarkJedi-BoS.jpg Did they reconstruct their own, have some hidden, or is this (out of universe) some error along the way?
  3. The rumor I heard was that it would just be him as a Force Ghost (ie like Obi-Wan in the OT) which at first glance seems more feasible than like what happened in the EU Feel like they may also have prequel to the prequels in mind ie like the Darth Plag may be also be possible. I feel like it'd be hard to involve that timeline without Vader. Not that they will avoid Vader but just IMO Vader won't be in more movies.
  4. Where does that quote say that the Jedi buried Bane? All it says is the Jedi thought they had destroyed Bane's plans with his defeat. Bane's remains were placed in a sarcophagus, notice how that is its own sentence because it is its own thought. Independent of the previous sentence dealing with the Jedi. Also remember that Bane had a holocron floating around somewhere
  5. Zannah didn't share the utter hatred for her master that other apprentices had displayed. In fact, even immediately after his defeat she proclaims to Cognus they are Bane's legacy and the future of the Sith. She viewed Bane as a true revolutionary and the thought of her returning Bane's remains doesn't seem like a stretch to me. I mean Sidious kept Plag's remains.... Also, the OP says that the Jedi Council rejected the idea of the Rule of Two because they thought Bane's defeat had ended any threat of his legacy. The OP does not say that it is the same Jedi Council that saw the defeat of Bane AND later rejected the Rule of Two rumors. Therefore it remains, and I think it is phrased in such a manner, stating that the "defeat" of Bane and the rejection of the Rule of Two happened at different times as it is now. Bane is still the same.
  6. No, at the end of the novel "Rule of Two" the 15 Jedi thought they killed "Darth Bane" (who was really Tomcat) at Caleb's Hut. Read the OP quote again Upon closer examination there is literally nothing here that does not conflict with Darth Bane's trilogy or any other canon. The Jedi knew of Bane by reputation only during the War (Master Farfalla acknowledges he knew of Bane) then thought he was one of the many Sith who died in the Thought Bomb. The Jedi later find out Bane is alive but mistakenly think Tomcat was Bane. If I'm not mistaken, there was also an incident when Yoda was on the council around 150ish BBY where someone was proclaiming the Sith had survived and were now only two at any time. The Jedi Council immediately dismissed this truth and then we all know what happened later. The only thing I was unaware of in the OP was Bane's remains being in the Valley of the Dark Lords. If this is new does it really change anything? No. The Bane tale we all know remains unaffected for now.
  7. Remember that one time Malak betrayed Revan at the drop of a hat... As I've said before, in my opinion Revan's Sith Empire more loyalty issues than the Brotherhood does
  8. ^^ I agree with this. Also, restating the fact, that the Brotherhood has Bane who is the best individually in this this war. Brotherhood can also use Kas'im for individual missions which is definitely a great option as well. If we're assuming the Bane and all the unity on the Brotherhood side we could put Bane back with the Gloom Walkers as a sort of Vader with the 501st role.
  9. I'm pretty sure she said that to close the gap between Kaan and Darth Revan's charisma and being able to inspire/control/persuade their respective troops. And Kaan didn't dominate people's mind like the Emperor did, he was more of a subtle persuasion like a Zannah sort of style. Either way, I don't know if "undoing a mind-trick placed on someone else" is a thing in the SW universe. I think the stability/back-stabbing of Kaan's forces is being overstated. The only person that there was ever a conflict with was Bane. The rest of the Brotherhood was relatively-united (as in not stating overpowering objection) to getting rid of Bane and Qordis only made some silly scrub last chance at an alliance. There was not a concrete plot in mind once said alliance were to be formed. Darth Revan's Empire had loyalty issues at the very top of the chain of command. I find the 2nd in command trying to assassinate the guy in charge speaking to a much higher magnitude of instability/back-stabbing than trying to get rid of someone who's new to the Dark Lord Ranks. Without the Star Forge I think this may also imply that the Brotherhood will have the tech advantage. For whatever it's worth, the Brotherhood lasted 3 times longer than Revan's (Malak's) Sith Empire. I think this in a way speaks to the quantity of their respective arsenals and the stability within. I think Revan is the better strategist but the longer the war goes, the more it will favor Kaan.
  10. Yea the stand-alone movie talks have been out for a while, I think the plan was they are going to do the trilogy in 2015, 2017, and 2019 then two stand-alones in 2016 and 2018. Then repeat the cycle after 10ish+ years. Stand-alone movie would be a good opportunity to do some Old Republic Era!
  11. Neat that they're out there, but I don't think I'll pick up a pair. Maybe the cast and crew of Ep VII should wear them as good luck
  12. I know, but the temptation to troll was too great
  13. I got it as well and liked it. And to above posters, everything is better as a TV show/movie
  14. Very nice and well done analysis. This is will be my main argument for Ahsoka in the Underrated Force Users thread! I've always thought in terms of physical combat prowess she is undeniably above the level of Padawan and at the level of Knight
