Star Wars Discussion Thread Canon/Legends- Episode V Attack of the Fanons

How accurate is this video guys?

Very accurate.

Ngl, the Xyston-class would be a great Star Destroyer if they just used those kyber crystals to boost their turbolasers, like the First Order did with the Finalizer, and channelled the full might of its enhanced hypermatter reactor.

Even without the superlaser and reactor power, its conventional armament is among the best in the galaxy.

The combined heavy turbolaser barrage wouldn't be as powerful as the superlaser because of how kyber crystals work, but they could definitely sterilize a planet pretty quickly.

How I would fix the Xyston:
1. Don't make them 1.5 times the size of the old ISDs. Keeping them the same size makes more sense, especially given the in-universe lore from the Aftermath trilogy regarding thousands of missing ISDs.
2. Keep the super-laser, but don't make it a planet-buster.
3. Keep the super-laser Khyber-powered and at most a crust-buster, not outright planet-buster.

The power jump from the Mandator IV's main cannons to the Xyston super-laser doesn't make sense (the Xyston superlaser is said to be a further evolution of the Mandator IV's cannons). The former destroyed an area two-thirds the size of India with four shots, while the latter busted a small planet with a sustained several second shot from its superlaser. Keeping it at only the level of the Conqueror from Legends would have made way more sense.

Speaking of the Mandator, I did a recalc, but Idk what went wrong.

I am curious. What would this yield if it was melting?

 

[ByAsura]

Assuming 600 degrees C and 0.6 kj/kg kelvin (the lowest I found for common bedrock) gets 3.9880302e+23 J.

That's a little over 95 teratons, or Country level+.

question.

if i joined the empire, what's the coolest stormtrooper variant to be? (Snowtrooper, scout trooper, sand trooper, etc) which one would it be?

Storm Commando

Storm Commandos were the special forces of the Galactic Empire's Stormtrooper Corps and trained to deal with extreme combat situations. They were equipped with black armor and carried E-11 medium blaster rifles. The specialized stormtroopers were also known to utilize any weapons they liked if...

Storm commando

The Storm Commandos, also known as Imperial Commandos or Shadow Scouts, were the special forces of the Imperial Military. One task for storm commandos was to instigate uprisings on enemy systems or to subdue insurrections on Imperial-held worlds. They also served as second-wave attackers in the...

In addition, these guys were also trained to fly TIE Interceptors (also TIE Hunters in Legends). They were equally deadly in close quarters ground combat (also at range, because they were good sharp-shooters) and in their TIEs. They also sometimes did undercover work, as evidenced by the Battlefront: Twilight Company novel. And these guys were so good they were sometimes trusted by Vader himself to carry out certain missions.

you know i think the reason why many would join the dark side is simply because dark side powers are cooler.

light side is boring

does anyone agree

Dark side corruption gives you erectile dysfunction and male pattern baldness so I disagree.

question would being an imperial royal guard be cool?

Dark side degradation also makes you look like a cow hemorrhoid.

Oh, sweet summer child... You DO NOT want to be one of those.

well storm commando it is then

 

[Artorimachi_Meteoraft]

question when i see a speeder bike how come i don't see the blaster cannon.

i know it's there but for some reason i can't see it

 

[Soldier_Blue]

well storm commando it is then

Royal Guard life is like the embodiment of physical and mental torture.

Being forced to kill your friends, combat tournaments where only the winners become final candidates, enduring broken fingers/toes as part of torture resistance training, regular subjection to electric shocks, being outright brutally executed for the slightest mistake, armour that is a literal pain to wear, Dark Side brainwashing, etc.

Same reason as with TIEs. They're just well integrated into the chassis.

I was watching some video of Vader and how he saw the soldiers and generals in the empire but below that in the following videos the Vader vs Starkiller fight appears and that reminds me.

shouldn't Legends Vader resist deconstruction by taking Starkiller's force Repulse in point-blank?

 

[Artorimachi_Meteoraft]

I remember in another video. he said that the reason why humans are xenophobic in star wars is because humanity itself believed that they were responsible for many of the technologies and inventions that were in star wars and that they believe humans are the ones that can bring peace to the galaxy and not any other species.

basically humans contributed to the galaxy the most so they are superior and because many leaders and other stuff were humans, so only humans can bring peace and etc to the galaxy (this especially applies to homo sapiens in the core worlds)

 

[Oliver_de_jesus]

like Warhammer but very less xenophobic

 

[Artorimachi_Meteoraft]

like Warhammer but very less xenophobic

still the reason why the empire can get away with this

or

this

 

[Oliver_de_jesus]

y

 

[Artorimachi_Meteoraft]

y

because since genosians and wookiees act like animals/can’t speak basic/don’t look human despite them being sentient.

you can get away with either genocide or enslavement.

It also helps that they heavily suppressed actual news or controlled narratives on events that became known in the galaxy at large.

is there a reason why Coruscant is the core?

i mean why core worlds? Why this area should be the core and not other areas?

This area of the galaxy is known as the Core Worlds because they are on the outer edge of the galactic core.

Going from the centre of the galaxy outward, you have the following:
Deep Core
Core Worlds
Colonies
Inner Rim
Expansion Region
Mid Rim
Outer Rim
Wild Space

Then you have the Unknown Regions towards the Galactic West.

Guardians of the Galaxy vs Darth Vader

 

[ByAsura]

Just found something in Legends.

Two FCVS, which can be escorted by corvettes and frigates, slapped together (only a single engine outputting, as they're facing each other) with cargo similar in bulk volume and size to a large Super Star Destroyer need 35 hours and 600,000,000 km to accelerate to cruising speed due to most of their power being utilised on forcefields.

Using the space travel calculator gets a maximum speed of over 3.17% SoL and over 15.4 gs of acceleration at less than 1/4th of an individual ship's true output.

An ISD has an acceleration of over 2,300 Gs, while an Executor is 1,230 Gs. Executors are noted as being fast for their size due to their insanely overpowered engines, but slow and unwieldy compared to ISDs, which often outpace their mid-sized (like corvette or frigate) escorts. TIEs are even faster than ISDs and have an acceleration of 4,100Gs.

So, basically, A) starship engines are insanely overpowered, and B) TIEs can reach a cruising speed equal to that in less than 8 minutes.

They say a lot of times in Legends that ships can reach respectable fractions of the speed of light during combat, and I'm fully inclined to believe that.

 

[Oliver_de_jesus]

So I'm interested in repairing the profile of Starkiller and Galen Marek (I'll split it in two) that will have multiple keys since they both increase in power according to the comics and novels, but what I'm wondering is, should I make the Sith apprentice key part of Starkiller's profile (Clone)? since basically the events in hoth are mentioned but it is not specified if they happened in the same way

 

[ByAsura]

We're planning on something like that in the new Legends revision.

 

[Oliver_de_jesus]

What do you mean exactly? Are you (team SW) going to repair the profile too or just the general ap and speed

 

[ByAsura]

Both.

 

[Oliver_de_jesus]

Both.

So I leave it up to you to repair the profile or should I do it?

 

[ByAsura]

You can join us, if you want.

 

[Oliver_de_jesus]

You can join us, if you want.

ok, where are we discussing the plan to be able to know?

 

[ByAsura]

I'll add you to the convo.

Just be a female darksider and it’s not a problem kek

 

[Artorimachi_Meteoraft]

Just be a female darksider and it’s not a problem kek

they say do not open a sith holocron.

also palpatine said that anyone who tried to study the darkside without falling to the darkside, they all fail in the end.


I guess that’s how bad the dark side really is

 

[Oliver_de_jesus]

funny thing, Vader trained his apprentice to not give the high ground to his enemies

 

[Oliver_de_jesus]

Is there a probability that the force lightning have the characteristic of a normal lightning? I have found some things that indicate that it has ozone and of course feats of melting things by heat in Legends.

But is there any actual canon evidence other than twitching muscles and the power to melt things?

It would be great to see how the Sith and some Jedi can cast lightning with the heat of 27000 ° C

 

[Artorimachi_Meteoraft]

do jedi kidnap babies?
