Obviously Obi Wan and Yoda surviving is a given, I might even understand Eeth Koth since he got killed by Vader.

But Oppo and Coleman?!?!?!? What was the point of them surviving when we don't know what happened to them, and it just leaves Order 66 and the Empire as a whole as less of a threat.

Dave Filioni's original plan of having Plo Koon survive also just adds to that but luckily, he didn't go through with that.

I realize criticizing anything canon on this sub gives you the death penalty but I just find 5 council members running around during the reign of the Empire to be way too high.

I have to say Duel of Fates! Goosebumps every single time. (Toy Photo by me)

The Sith Code is incredibly nihilistic. The sole goal of its adherents is to constantly desire and actively strive for ever greater power, so that eventually, no limitations of this world can bind them, thus promising absolute freedom.

At the same time, however, as long as they remain faithful to it, they cannot be satisfied with anything less than this level.

Furthermore, they cannot care about anyone but themselves, because love or morality are also forms of limitation. It's a completely lonely path, ideally under the thumb of completely antisocial, selfish degenerates.

Which Sith Lords met these criteria? Or does being a True Sith not mean following the Code point for point for you?

Just a fun thought I had after watching the movie. I’d say they’d probably have mutual respect for each other. Boba probably would commend Rotta for not in following his father’s footsteps considering that Rotta now works for the New Republic at the end of the movie whereas Rotta probably would praise Boba for not letting that palace go to waste.

I’m working on a Star Wars poster showing 110 in-universe faction symbols and wanted to get a few more knowledgeable eyes on it before I consider it done.

For now, I chose to keep the selection canon-aligned, but with so many symbols coming from shows, games and reference material, I’m sure there might be a few edge cases.

Are there any symbols that seem out of place, named incorrectly, or worth reconsidering?

I’d really appreciate any thoughtful corrections or suggestions!

I heard that after becoming Emperor, Palpatine devoted considerable time to studying the resources there, which strengthened him greatly. Do we know of any specific artifacts or dark side holocrons?

Despite his hatred for Kenobi keeping him alive after his defeat at Naboo, the only person Maul seemed to have more hatred towards was Sidious. In a hypothetical scenario, if forming an alliance with Obi-Wan meant the downfall of the empire and the defeat of Palpatine once and for all, would Maul do it? Or do you think he would simply refuse to ever ally with Kenobi and only view him as a foe?

This is something that I do find interesting about the old EU. Originally, before the prequels, it was assumed that the Clone Wars happened much farther back in the timeline, years before the birth of the Empire and the fall of the Jedi Knights. The Clone Wars was not directly tied to either and was instead a separate event.
