It's a little old now (As Cain pointed out) but it hadn't yet been identified clearly. it's important because there are some issues it brought to my attention that I was unsure about. If anyone wishes to discuss anything brought up by it, this is the place.

I was interested in particular by the implications that a ground based Vader has the ability to enter craft on the surface. I could be reading too much into it here, but that's what it sounds like. I wouldn't mind seeing him behind the controls of an AT-AT that's for sure.

That'd be pretty cool, not only does it give him some protection but maybe he can still use the force crush ability. So anything in the atat's way is destroyed! Well, anyway thatd be cool if you could put him into an atat, maybe it increases stats like speed, attack, def. etc.

Not only would that be handy, but what if vader sustains a large amount of damage on the battlefied, it'd be a good place to put him, while he heals, especially if the rebels had it in for him.

The Heroes can die? That's good news, if it's been confirmed. I haven't heard much about the Heroes, but I'm happy to hear that at least they can die.

Well a Lightsaber blade isn't exactly a hair razor!!! What else would it do if you get hit on the neck??
