Though I think the contents themselves are a red herring and it's more linked in with the final scene than with you know who. Voldemort? Sorry, couldn't help it...

Billion Year Old Carbon 81 Posted November 21 I really hope we still get some Death Troopers in this season, though. I would imagine there would still be a place for them, but I also could see the show keeping them out of this season to avoid confusion between Death Troopers and Dark Troopers. I don't even play Imperials, but I picked up a box of Death Troopers to paint during this season. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KommanderKeldoth 3,141 Posted November 21 Poor Kyle Katarn and Jan Ors. First they lose out on getting credit for stealing the death star plans, now they are about to lose credit for taking down the Dark Trooper project! 2 buckero0 and thestag reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Unless... they're going to re-introduce them It wouldn't be above this show's ability to reach into Legend's lore. Like perhaps just mention the republic's operatives that are working on this project 1 Paladin Ignatius reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
buckero0 1,956 Posted November 22 I hope that transport speeder gets released since we have rules for it now. Dark troopers with dark sabers vs bo+katan in 2 episodes! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Billion Year Old Carbon 81 Posted November 22 What is that, two units of dark troopers? How many points is Gideon about to spend on these guys? Not even getting into upgrades... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not even getting into upgrades... I think it's more than just 2 units of Dark Troopers (DTs). I looked at this photo of the scene. I counted 9 DTs on one wall. There were 2 walls. That give Moff Gideon 18 DTs. Figure 2-3 per unit so we're looking at 6 or 9 units of DTs. Is it Friday yet?

I hope not, especially with her being probably one of the most, if not THE most, popular character in the Star Wars franchise, particularly with the female fan base. I don't think Disney would let a cash cow like that go away. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Different times, man. Also the Ahsoka character is still in her prime. It would be rather different to kill her off now than after, say 40 years of her being a central character to the fan base.

I thought it felt almost like an old testament set up, with nods towards samurai stuff too.

I'm giving them benefit of the doubt for this season assuming rushed shooting/editing due to covid and the rumored on set drama with pedro (whatever it was). That said, if we get a s3 it really needs to move a bit beyond standard video game quest storytelling with a bunch of easter eggs and cameo's smattered in.

It’s like looking for Clone Wars to have an overarching plot, or Rebels to get beyond the Ghost family. 2 ninclouse2000 and Paladin Ignatius reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But the love is mostly fan service. A lot of people won't have a clue who Asoka is. Kind of glad she's made her debut though, as all the hype was about her or other cartoon characters. It's Mando's show though and we've had loads of curveballs, which is great Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Weikel 68 Posted November 28 Season 2 is following a similar format to season 1. He goes on side quests, meets a bunch of people, then they all come together at the end of the season to confront Gideon. Give all the characters one more go around by season's end, maybe Sabine to tie in Bo-Katan and Ahsoka with a little Ezra reference. Then in the next couple months we'll get announcements for spin off series for Ahsoka chasing down Thrawn and maybe a separate one for Bo-Katan trying to re-establish Mandalore.
