I think a great part of the Imperial fleet survived Endor and regrouped at Annaj and other nearby systems. Among the survivors were Teradoc and Pellaeon... Teradoc left from there with a considerable fleet of Star Destroyers...

I'm worrying how far your interest in Twi'Lek's goes, my friend....

Interstellar Studies and General Alliance Studies... That's be hard... Hi, I'm Elvis Miggell Interstellar Lawyer and Rebel General, I know over 6 million codes of laws. The use of the SWR Forums was declared illegal on Isht after Article 896 Paragraph 7....

Some of us more crazy than others...

A long and tasty breakfast... I would think that Palpy would have kept the nonhuman armies, watching over their nonhuman conflicts. Diamal troops watching over Diamal interests, etc... Human troops is another case entirely. We know from cases like Baron Fel, Tycho Celchu, Han Solo, Pash Cracken that they became part of the armies and came to have assignments everywhere. If the recruited and conscripted soldiers came to serve in the same unit with clones is unknown , although Stackpole may have hinted at it. In one of the X-Wing books, Wedge's gamble, I think, Tycho says that he got to talk to his family on Alderaan on his birthday, an event celebrated for its rarity among TIE pilots... Although Stackpole could have simply meant that most TIE pilots didn't get to live long enough to celebrate their birthdays, we can also interpret that clones wouldn't have any need to celebrate their "birthdays".... By the time of the Thrawn Crisis, clones were a rarity, they weren't as common. Not even in Imperial Circles. Mara Jade knows little of clones, for someone who has been in the upper echelons of the Imperial Court at its zenith, not knowing of clones, or cloning centers, suggests that they weren't manufactured that much at the time. Clones and the Force: An interesting topic. We know of cases like Joruus C'Baoth, and Dorsk 81 or Palpy's clone(s), and Luuke. We know also that Spaarti clones need to be cut off from the Force, to be grown rapidly (2 weeks) , that implies the use of Ysalamiri. Or they need about 1 year to be fully grown. Otherwise they'll get crazy. The mental unstability is a result from a shared connection to the Force. Does that imply that clones are, on a subconscious level, aware of the Force? We do not know much about how C'Baoth's clone came to be. How long his maturing period was, etc. We know that he was crazy and that he did not know he was a clone. He was Force-sensitive, but did not know that there was someone else with the same connection to Force as he, the original C'Baoth, we sadly do not know if both C'Baoths were alive at the same time. We know that clones from Force-sensitives are Force-sensitives, and that with non-sensitives, there is at least an awareness, an existence within the Force that makes them mentally unstable if exposed to fast to the galaxy. We know that Thrawn's Wayland clones felt "strange" in the Force, we got that comment from Luke on numerous occasions, that means that there is some paricularity in them as a result of A) being clones and their common presence in the Force, or B) that as a result of being cut off from the Force during their growth a loss of their "Force-connection", not in a Vong-style, but still not as strong as in other people. I'll leave it for the next to continue discussing...

Interesting concept indeed. There's not much on Imperial ground Forces on oceanplanets, like Calamari, Bestine, (Kamino?). There's even an AT-AT swimmer...

WinXP, Outlook Express, IE 6.0... But it also didn't work in my old computer: WinMe, Outlook XP, IE 6.0

The Republic did not have a standing army, but its members worlds did have their own armies. One would expect that after Palpy selfdeclarated himself Emperor, then all armies of the member worlds and the clone army of the Republic would be turned into a single huge Imperial Army. WE know that Carida and other Academy Worlds functiones already before Palpy's rise. As for Force-Sensitives... hm... I'll go and have braeakfast and then I'll answer that issue...

OOC: You might try to put your charming Supreme Overlord personality in action as well.... IC: The lamentable remains of the Rebel fleet had barely made it as far as Kothlis. After three hours of battle, the Rebel fleet had been unable to do much damage to the Yuuzhan Vong fleet; the Punisher, had acted up to its name and had punished the entire Rebel fleet. More than three quarters of the hundred starships gathered for the defense of Bothawui had been mercilessly destroyed. The rest had been seriously damaged, the crews of the twenty-odd ships completely demoralized. After seeing so many comrades and friends fall in a lost battle and see the full power of the Punisher in action, there was still more sufferment for them. The announced unpleasantries, Igoru spoke of, had arrived, three worldships, all of them loaded with coralskippers, and small frigates, and lots of plasma spitting creatures attached to them had come to finish of the Rebel fleet. The captain of one of the few remaining Mon Cal cruisers, a CRL40 (the biggest surviving vessel), had issued the order to withdraw. Through the open channel the Bothan leadership had screamed desperately, accusing the Rebels of traitors, and speaking a vengeance oath against the commander of the CRL 40, to the Yuuzhan Vong, and just after the REbel fleet entered hyperspace, the desperate Bothan extended their oath of revenge to each of the surviving members of the taskforce, from the captains down to the maintenance crews and even the droids. That alone had depressed the troops more. After they arrived on Kothlis they were quickly chased away by the defending Bothan ships. The Yuuzhan Vong, have won much with this battle, Elegaie thought for himself. They have put the Bothans against all. Great victory. Igoru mentally answered. You seem to forget Igoru, that the Bothans have allies, both in Imperial and Rebel space, and that they have their furry little hands all over Imperial and Rebel interests. "Your Alliance has started to break apart, just as the Republic did in its time." Igoru said. "What will become of the Empire then?" "The Empire is Evaders, should he die, then the galaxy is doomed. But he still is safe on Coruscant. Unlike your precious leaedership. The Bothans are gone for good. They either will become part of the genetic raw material for the Vong, or else they will remain enemies of the Alliance. The Mon Cals cannot do more for you. Bakura has been destroyed. Sullust, Sluis Van, Tatooine, Ryloth all of them have been erased from the map. What is still for you? Kashyyyk? Can the Wookiees stop them? I somehow don't believe that? Or would you rather have the Rebels plead the Hutts for help?" Igoru said. "Your Empire is not in a better position, the other Vong group that has been attacking the Core in the past months has strained Imperial resources. A lightning strike on Coruscant, Kuat and Esseles without their shipyards, and now the rumors of Carida. Bilbringi and Fondor will also be affected soon and then what. The Imperial warmachine will strain Ord Trasi and Wistril, and who knows what else. Have the Corellian Diktat serve the Empire?" Elegaie replied. Garth had waken up and listened to the conversation wiht interest. "Will Evaders take a shuttle to the Unknown Regions and rule from there?" Igoru smiled, "That's not a bad idea at all. The Unknown Regions." Elegaie was certain that his last comment had uncovered something else. Something that still had to do with the Unknown Regions. "The point is, the galaxy is in shambles, we're just trying to travel from one piece to another without falling in the hands of the Yuuzhan Vong." Garth said. "Where are we headed at all?" Igoru asked, obeying Rebel isntructions he had just send the ship into hyperspace without checking were he was headed at all. "Corewards along the Corellian Run." Garth said. "But I don't know where exactly. Elegaie?" "Not Corellia, that much I know. But still farther than the Expansion Region. Last rumors came that parallel to Bothawui the Yuuzhan Vong had executed assaults on Druckenwell, Kalarba, Falleen and surprisingly Tynna. There were some very faint references to losses at M'Haeli, Malastare and that scouts were sighted near Yag'Dhul." Elegaie said. "The Vong are gunning for Thyferra and Fondor then." "Not too mention a road to the Core along the Run, and the Trade Spine." "And then crush what remains of the civilized galaxy in the Core, between their Outer Rim Force and the ones that have been attacking the Core." Igoru finished. "Anyone wanting to guess what our next loss will be? Anyone? I'm betting Devaron!" Igoru laughed. Laughed diabocally as Elegaie shut his senses, and entered a peaceful Jedi trance. Peace in the middle of the storm...

None of the above, Jahled, sorry... I even hadn't heard of it until now, much less seen an episode...

For the sake of the Animated GIFs thread, I hope he doesn't...

If only knew what you are talking about...

You sure you haven't hit head to hard agaisnt the solid objects in your house...

The question should be if any clone made it to retirment... They are dispensable after all. And I don't think Palpy would care to create a retirement clone for his clones. As for reproduction, I suppose they are capable, at least the Thrawn's WAyland clones were. But I don't think they were motivated to reproduce. They had to serve Palpy not reproduce. I agree with Grand Moff Conway about the situation of clones within the Empire. I would say that before ANH clones were about 50% percent of the Imperial warmachine, recruits, conscripts, about 45% nonhumans and women 5%. During the Galactic Civil War, there must have been more clone losses than the production rate of clones, so Palpy needed more recruits and conscripts. From the EU we know that Palpy concripted soldiers from worlds. In TLC the Ukio representative talks to Thrawn about his fears of having the Empire conscript people from Ukio, in the X-Wing books, there if the reference that Garik Loran's acting in one of the Empire movies boosted Imperial recruiting about 5%. That'd be before ANH. And we know that there is a nonhuman branch and the women's service in the Imperial military. When Daala joined. We know from Pellaeon in SOTP that the Empire once possessed 25000 Star Destroyer, if each Impstar is crewwed by 37000 people. The Empire would have needed 925 000 000 clones, not too mention aditional troops. Wayland had the capacity for 20000 clones. At the point of its greatest glory Palpy had been sitting on the throne for about 20 years. Wayland could have produced at most 400 000 clones, not much... Palpy would have needed about 2300+ Wayland like facilities to produce enough clones to crew his Star Destroyer, that alone is exaggerated, so there must have been conscription and recruitment in the years of Imperial reign.

I just tried that number..., the line was dead apparently... That's because... well... the operator... He was not worthy enough for that job... Plus hewas showing some infidel tendencies... Interested in the job, Scath? The students did learn a lot, though...

Yes, the Reloaded TC talk and the secret pics of Carrie Fisher...

Well we have our little triumvirate: You, SOCL and myself... Our Emperors, Emperor Evaders, Emperor Elvis and Imperator of BEAK SOCL. And we have our little half-crazy community...

I tried... But how many infidels do actually consider themselves unworthy? That's why I came up with another ad... Support cast required for holofilms featuring Jabba's Harem... Please apply to 1-800-I-AM-DEAD... That had better results... Good Luck on your classes, Andy, if you ever need a contradictive materialization of the Force in an individual...I'll be glad to help you in return for the most unworthy students of you class....

It's hard to believe that they actually signed that...

Sigh... I never talked about parallel dimensions, I was talking about exactly the same thing as in the Guardian article. The discussion deformed to a parallel dimensions talk when I checked it...

I think the discussion was about old times... Those days... Back when Zoot had sent us all to the moon, and destroyed Elvis's body in the process...

That goes for SWR as well...

Yep, Every single time...

Where are you studying Mask? It strikes me odd that you should be having exams at the beginning of the Wintersemester....

Vong studies is easy. For shaper class, I'll just bring some unworthy infidel and experiment on him. For warrior class, I'll bring some unworthy infidel and practice combat movements. For the priest class, I'll bring some unworthy infidel and sacrifice it to the Gods. Practicing the perfect sacrifice. For the intendant caste, I'll bring some unworthy infidels and teach how to organaize an efficient slave camp. The only problem is getting that many unworthy infidels these days...
