I think that the EU is even starting to go down the sh*tter the Dark Nest Trilogy had such possibilities. Jag and Jaina, Jacen finding a new nest of Sith Lords while going around the galaxy. I mean what the F*ck is with this Ang Tii Flow Walking and all this stuff about Coruscant being repopulated!!! Lucas obviously wants the EU to get even more f.ed up so that people can look at other stuff he's done. SW may go the way of ST!!! I don't care if it does. Kirk is still the best Captain.
Like President Bush?? Stop blaming the Muslims. Its the former Empire's fault!! We are the ones who split the continents into retarded country boundaries. If Bush wants to stop terrorism he should learn what they hate and try to change it.
Adding to the entry fro Jek Porkins. Jek Porkins was a Y-wing Ace. He trained with Wes Janson in the Tierfon Aces Training Squadron. He was picked over Wes to fill in a role in the X-wing Red Squad. He always kept his Inertial Compensater at 100% as he was so large. That is why he didn't realise that during the Death Star Trench Run he wasn't pulling away from the surface.
So did Corran Horn and loads of other people but the fact is that there isn't going to be loads of SW characters in my opinion. Ackbar may be one of them but there are more important characters like Bail Organa, Mon Mothma and Especially Garm Bel-Iblis who created the Rebellion with the signing of the Corellian Treaty. Uniting 3 of the most powerfull Pirate Factions against the Empire.
It wasn't hard. I held Most of the Outer Rim and had 5 Shipyards with 12 Advanced Shipyards. I had loads and I mean Loads of Planets with nothing but resources on them, all my fighters were in that fleet. Then I took it to battle and thrashed a fleet of 3 SSDs with Supporting craft. Vader was the only character who I didn't capture. I don't know how but I managed to win the game and only capture Palpatine and Hold Coruscant, Wierd No?
