I certianly am no artist but I bet I could be one heck of a tard!

I never noticed the "gratitious sex scenes." I know the book is graphic and not "grandma" safe but they just didn't leap out at me as overly done or overly frequent - and part of aSoI&Fs charm (IMO) is the very base human emotions (revenge, lust, greed, fanatisism) that drive the whole series...

Holy moly Batman - you didn't just say that, did you?

Great stuff

I like it.

Do a google.... They seem to be an electronic gaming company with several employees. My guess is that neither Malhavok nor Iron Lore could survive the legal battle but if I had to guess which one had the deeper pockets, I would guess IL. Electronic game companies, even tiny, intsy, bintsy ones...

Big map fan - not such a big UD fan. However, those are some nice maps. Though simple visually they still come across with some style.

Ah, my religion-fu failed me. Guiltly of WASP-ism here.

What if she wasn't a virgin ? :p PS - d20 and D&D are interchangible to me. No difference. You may just be much more nuianced than I.

What other easily understandible term for being born without an father, asexual reproduction, or cloning would you recommend to us? Oh yeah, it should hint that you just might be a prophesied messianic figure :)

Whoops, it's right here. I don't really disagree with this train of thought. I still don't know if it is the opinion that I hold since I don't quite know what to make of Shimi's miracle birth. Myth is full of spawned children but usually there is a preface for that - one that we don't get in...

I don't want to put words in your mouth but what you appear to be saying is that we shouldn't talk about SW because we all take different things away from it? If true then why post in threads about speculation? I disagree with my inferred understanding of your post, which is why I post on...

I know we are gonna disagree on what equals balance which is why I phrased things the way I did :p We can meet somewhere near the middle ground with "but the Republic Jedi and the bulk of their teachings were destroyed, incidentially or not in the restoration of balance." It allows agreement...

But can the 10,000 jedi defeat the millions of trillions of dissenters? [trigger SW pet peeve] Sometimes SW numbers are freaky unrealistic (A Superstar Destroyer has how many crew members?).[/SW pet peeve]

He did things correctly by the Old Republic Jedi tenants which may or not be in sink with the light side of the force. No matter how you cut it "restoring balance" resulted in the utter destruction of the Old Jedi and nearly all of their teachings. :confused: The point of Shatterpoint and of...

You might give Shatterpoint a try - it is written by Matthew Stover an excellent up and coming author. I liked the Zhan books but most of the rest left me non-plussed.

I don't get the opinion that Mace was scared. Generally speaking, he just doesn't get scared especially when he is on his feet holding the only light sabre. Mace does train in a combat style that is deliberately leathal and flirts with the DS anyway (Too perform correctly you must lose yourself...

Contrary to being mind wiped, I understand character perspective opposed to "the truth." Shimi states that there was no father. From her POV that is probably true but still offers us no insight into his birth - did angels sing to her, was she bathed in white light, were roofies involved, or did...

I'd like to see the article if you can find it, with context to make sure what he is talking about. I could easily see him saying "Palpatine is a mask worn by Sidious" and meaning just that - Palpie is a persona created and tweaked to gain position in the senate and take over.

Who really believes Mace is dead? No body = didn't die. He is way too popular of a character to just off like that and judging by the fall, which we have seen other jedi survive, I suspect he will get his own comics, graphic novels, or books at some point in the future.
