Jm, I feel the same way. After the Yuuzhan Vong war, I started losing track of things, and I've basically given up. Some of the characters are pretty cool (Krayt, Lumiya), but the story is a bit odd. When I found out that there was a second galactic civil war is was like...why? I think that winning the war against the YV was a pretty good ending point, b/c a lot of the characters from the movies/galactic civil war were still alive and were heroes then too, and the YV are basically as evil as it gets (arguably, one could say Palps was more evil, but that's beside the point). After that, all the heroes from the movies start to die, and it got less exciting.
That's what I think. So I wouldn't be making a 'Sword of the Jedi' Jaina, but rather a Jaina around the time of the end of the YV War.

Okay. I read up on it on Wookiepedia, but after Luke dies, along with the rest of the team, I don't care...at all. Cade Skywalker isn't nearly as interesting as Luke, who's even less interesting than Anakin Skywalker, but then I think Anakin is a fascinating character. Luke is one-faceted, though.

Yeah, I don't really care either. I prefer my ancient Sith and galactic civil war. YV war's alright, but I'll always like the Sith.
Yeah, I agree, Anakin is more interesting than Luke. Anakin had some variety to him, and was more erratic, while Luke is more calm.

And boring. And who likes green lightsabers anyway?!?

Yeah, really. Green is probably the worst colour.

Blue all the way. And Anakin's second lightsaber is a pretty hilt, besides.

Lol. Yeah, some lightsabers are really nice (Mace's comes to mind).

Yeah. Have you ever heard of the Force FX Lightsaber line? By Master Replicas?

They used to make lightsaber replicas that were very close to the movie, and had a nice blade that lit up and everything. They were cool.

Lol. They sound really interesting. I seem to remember some form of model lightsabers, but they didn't have a light-up blade (I don't think) or anything.
Btw, I was wondering why Darth Bane's lightsaber is purple (on his mini). I'm just getting him (FINALLY!), and I was wondering if it was a WotC design flaw, or if he used different color lightsabers. I think I remeber you said that you read Rule of Two, so I thought you might know.
EDIT: Also, I've added the Clone Assassin, Clone Heavy Gunner, and Clone Blaze Trooper.

I see you've played Episode III.
Uh, actually, Bane canonically had a red lightsaber, but WotC managed to screw it up. Interestingly, because Bane turned out to be the next Vader JH, LucasArts actually changed canon, saying Bane switched between red and purple sabers, and the comics reflect that. It's interesting, to say the least, that such a major change to canon was made because of a minor mistake on a miniature. It's like the Imperial Knights with white lightsabers.

Yeah, it was a pretty good game, and I decided to make some of the more interesting clones from it.
Lol. Yeah, I thought WotC probably screwed it up. Looks pretty good tho (on the fig). That's interesting that Lucas changed it, I didn't know that.
