As I understand it, Sinister is pretty correct. At 0 BBY Vader was the Emperor's apprentice and his "Hand", nothing more. That all changed when Tarkin and his Death Star got blown into itty-bitty pieces. I'm think there's something about how Tarkin was a check on Vader to keep him from doing anything too rash, but I'm not sure.
I don't recall any grand admirals in the movies, but that's just me... Comics; also Zaarin in TIE Fighter. Maybe the NEGC has pics of more Grand Admirals as well.
As I understand it, instead of having to connect to an official SOE server to play Galaxies, a person can set up this server emulator so they can do whatever they want, play with whomever they want, stuff like that. Like an N64 emulator or whatever.
Mara Jade (pre-NJO wussification) Grand Admiral Thrawn The fanfic version of myself Captain Needa Pellaeon The quintessential Rebel/Imperial pilot Few others I can't think of right now.
I just posted this minutes ago in another forum: You can beat the main quest of Morrowind in ~14 minutes. Which leaves an frickin' ton of faction quests... misc. side quests... and little "WTF?" quests. And that's not even counting the quests in Tribunal or Bloodmoon. So 7:30 can go jump off a cliff.
You block it with your own lightsaber, or you stay far away. If you're not a Jedi, you sure as hell don't want to get into a melee fight with a Jedi or a Sith. I'm leaning toward Dooku or Anakin. Why couldn't you have any cool characters on the list?
