  1. Minimally. Excited for Yavin because I like how it looks undecorated so I won't have to spend millions more on it. Few beds, couple statues, some chairs. Massassi all over. I also want it to be a temple so getting the training grounds/classrooms looking like such will be the hardest part. Severe lack of personnel options.
  2. It wasn't that only one of four had sith blood, it was that only one overseer had "red marks". Not of the four, either, since none of them did. He was talking about the whole of the Academy so I think you're supposed to conclude all of them were scanned, you just had to do four for the quest objective. There is only one pureblood overseer at the Academy. He did say there was little sith blood among them, though. But little isn't none.
  3. Let me be more clear about purity: it's not that they're lying about wanting purity, it's that their notion of purity is both biased(the minimum threshold conveniently includes them) and geared in another direction. That direction being sith. What mixed blood actually means is that the "sith blood" is getting mixed with non-sith blood and and becoming diluted. The status of purebloods is elite and exalted. You hear imperial humans talk of aliens as lesser and think they're including sith too, because to us they're aliens. But as far as they're concerned they're sith themselves, or as close as it gets. At least until a pureblood comes along. Or something even more pure than a pureblood: After the Exiles subjugated the sith they also came to respect their power and culture. That's why they bred with them. And the Exiles were few in number, humans or the hybrids didn't overtake the sith population until later. As recently as 300 years ago humans were still a minority on the Dark Council.
  4. You've misidentified what the master race is in the Empire. It's not humans. It's sith. Humans are only elevated above the other races because imperial humans have sith heritage. The more "sith blood" you have the better. So when they talk about "purity" they don't actually mean it. Vemrin, who was indicated to have come from Balmorra, would have almost certainly had no sith ancestry.
  5. Vemrin's problem was that he wasn't mixed blood. That he didn't have alien ancestry. Almost all Imperial humans had sith ancestry, but Vemrin wasn't an Imperial.
  6. Right. So if they're going to look like that either way, that's no reason to have them be holograms.
  7. Worth stating that it's not far-fetched at all for the Infinite Empire to crush the primitive sith. It's actually more unbelievable that they were repelled.
  8. But the hologram has different armor and customization too so it's not like that problem is avoided.
  9. http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Adas
  10. Because of Bane. It was by his design that the Brotherhood(and the Army of Light/Hoth) were destroyed, and it was also by his design that the sith wouldn't reveal themselves for all those years.
  11. Think you're a bit confused on the timeline for Hoth. He fought against the Brotherhood of Darkness during the New Sith Wars, almost 3000 years from "Return". A thousand year "peace" followed the Brotherhood's defeat but I wouldn't give Hoth the credit for it.
  12. What makes you say human is "canon" for the JK?
  13. Yes. Sith in TOR especially are always going on about fear. Choice quote:
  14. On female body type 1 the collar also clips with the back of the neck while running without a weapon/walking with one(guardian animations at least).
  15. Why do you think Naga Sadow is a greater leader than Marka Ragnos?
  16. Pyron contacted you before they started jamming. Ivress backs down because you appealed to his patriotism, caused doubt in his allies, or intimidated him. His change of heart was rather sudden, but the idea was that the two camps have friction between them and were harried by doubts. This wasn't conveyed at all I feel. Would have helped to have some hesitation or wavering in his initial defiance. It was a rather sloppily done scene overall really. Ivress will say he'll look into "your claims" about the Republic Revanites even if you never said anything of the sort. As far as Milinec goes, it sounds to me like you're mixing up what happened on your Republic character with your Imperial.
  17. I only mind that her lightsaber isn't the same color.
  18. That's not a goalpost. It's just an argument. If I said I wanted someone's pear because I didn't have one, and they pointed out to me I have two in my pocket, it's not changing the goalposts if I were to then say "Well, I want that one". The argument changed, not the goal. They're arguments, by the way, that he's since stopped making. As I said earlier: shouldn't you take that as a concession? It's a good thing, not a bad thing; as you acknowledged in the beginning of the thread. Why hold it against him now? Because you think he's going to "do it again". And this is why I said you refuse to acknowledge the goal. You said he wouldn't be happy if they put in these robes today, even though that's exactly what he's asked for in the OP and what's been asked for all along. When he said those things they weren't about these robes. There's a distinction between these robes and other jedi outfits. If you think he's moved the goalposts it's because you don't appreciate what's being asked for with the former(like saying Relnex is good enough), or because you don't understand that it's a different criteria when evaluating the latter(Humble Hero, Elegant Duelist, Juhani etc). An extremely subjective criteria that can't be agreed upon, unlike these robes. That might be what you and a handful of other people argue against, but it's certainly not the majority. I went and tallied this thread: Those in favor: 37 Those against: 10 Ambivalent: 5 Users who made arguments against it and the amount of posts they made: Sounders_Fan: 1 Tacheniko_Yuri: 2 Leihn: 1 MaximusRex: 1 Zoom_VI: 10 Lionflash: 1 Ghisallo*: 14 pax_orion: 1 Faraador: 2 Diefenbaker: 1 Reasons why: Anachronistic: 7* In-game already: 3 Other: 2 *Ghisallo made very sympathetic arguments for anachronism but he never quite flat out said they don't exist. As you see, "we're 3000 years away from these robes" is the most common argument. And that's now. After years of proving people wrong it's still the most repeated argument. When are they going to concede? And when are you going to help us argue against them? Also, I want to laugh particularly at someone who denigrated these robes by saying they were "contrived solely inside George Lucas's head".
  19. It disappoints me that The Ones escaped being purged from canon.
