That the Mandalorians are teh' bestest and most awesome ass-kickers in tha whole GFFA!!!!

In one of the LOTF novels... Revelation, I believe, Boba Fett leads a team with Jaina Solo to board Caedus' flagship, the Anakin Solo. They WTFpwn!!!1!111!!!!! Caedus and his apprentice, Tahiri-don't ask-and one of them even blows out one of Caedus' kneecap.

Fett actually restrains them from killing Caedus then and there.

Also, the Mandos are apparently salt of the earth, morally superior to the Jedi in every way. Which is bullshit, mind you...

Oh dear, you don't know about her obsession with Mandalorians?

Well, it's where the Clone-wanking stems from. You see, they're clones of a Mandalorian. Thus, they're the greatest and most uber warriors in the galaxy. Mandalorians may do no wrong. They are the ultimate soldiers, capable of killing a Jedi with their bare hands (seriously). But not only that, they're dedicated endlessly to those they love and honourable above all else and are incredibly moral.

And, of course, Boba Fett is a Mandalorian. So you know what that means! Yep, more Boba-wank than the entire EU put together. She's basicaly elevated him to the status where he's got Thrawn's genius and is completely unbeatable in combat. Oh, and he's now leader of the new Mandalorians, or something. And he's incredibly moral, honourable and righteous. Despite being a fucking mercenary criminal.
And then there was something about him helping Daala (who has become leader of the GFFA's military, or something) steal Pellaeon's corpse from some sort of supership. Or something.

Seriously, just stay away from the EU for your own sake. It's a gigantic fucking mess. Particularly since Travis has gotten involved, as she clearly doesn't give a shit about anything but making her own favourite characters out to be the greatest ever.

Oh, and Jedi are evil and corrupt and deliberately kept the Clone Wars going and knew Palpatine was a Sith.

I guess we're lucky that everything she does is only quasi-canon.

Holy shit. Sounds like she's a bad fanfic writer run amok.

She's worse, she's getting paid for what she does.

She is.

When you have a Mando-mook kneecapping the big bad Sith Caedus and Boba stopping him... yeah. But calling her a bad fanfic writer is an insult...

To bad fanfic writers.

True, I do have some pride in my demographic.

Still, they pay her? Do they read what she churns out?

A lot of it stems that Lucas TM doesn't care. Novels while higher then most things are still less then film on the canon ranking. Since GL only cares about his films and nothing else, he holds the rights to recon anything he wants. So, if there is a writer that he doesn't like. He can just pretend they don't exist on his next film.

As long as the EU is bringing in money, the guys in charge really don't give a shit about minor things like quality and consistancy.

Deepcrush · Post by **Deepcrush** » Tue Jun 30, 2009 7:43 pm

Thats pretty much it.

Tyyr · Post by **Tyyr** » Tue Jun 30, 2009 7:55 pm

That makes sense, though they'd likely make more if they took care of things. Sort of like Star Trek's EU. The whole reason I never got into it was that it was completely without any framework or continuity. Just a bunch of random stories.

Sionnach Glic · Post by **Sionnach Glic** » Tue Jun 30, 2009 7:57 pm

The Star Wars EU used to have good quality and continuity. And many writers now still aim for that. It's the small subset of writers, of which Travis is the most prominant, that have fucked it up.

The problem is no matter how good a runner you are, all the training, hard work, support from friends and family... if one dumb bitch breaks your leg... its all over.

KT is that to SW EU
