Just be happy with what you're getting, Kev. I could just as easily remove it and put in the TPMDF link. devil

You all are sheep, following the bandwagon. tongue I picked up and read LoE finally, I wasn't overly impressed. So far clone wars era books are lacking a bit IMO.

I agree to an extent. While there have been some utter gems, like Shatterpoint and Medstar I: Battle Surgeons, the rest of it has been just a little lacklustre. I felt that The Cestus Deception and Medstar II had something lacking. They didn't quite match up to the high standards of most post-ROTJ EU and their earlier breathren. happy

I'm also re-reading Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix in preparation for Half-Blood Prince in 10 days, and I'm only now realising just how masterful an author J.K. Rowling is, especially in the way she handles dialogue. Dammit, she can make it flow, unlike my dodgy creation for gothic English... tongue


Alright I'm not sure i can ask this here, but what is trolling considered on theforce.net? I need a definition for my cadet mission, and i have everything else...

Check out the JC Glossary - it's a very handy reference for a lot of JC terms and abbreviations. happy


EDIT: New Cadet Policy. All people wishing to join the EUDF should send a PM to me, instead of Jedi_Satimber. We have reworked slightly the Cadet system, and people should apply to me to join. I would appreciate it if other members of the EUDF would inform new Cadets of this change as they come along. happy

Now if only a few others would follow your example (hint hint)...

I did it, though it meant making a minor sacrifice.



I've been reading the posts about Batman Begins and I feel sooo good that I wasn't the only one who appreciated what I feel is a return to the comic's roots with this movie.

Yep. To me, Batman Begins is easily the best of the movies so far.

Thank you for adding the link to your sig, Emperor. You'll be surprised at how well that will help to put the word out about the EUDF.

I too loved Batman Begins. The best live-action Batman film by far.

I know I'm supposed to be working on a mission right now; I'd like to request an extension on it. My time online is limited right now because I'm on vacation with little internet access. I'll do what I can while I'm here, but it will all be limited. happy

You can't, I can start a security investigation against you tongue . However, which part were you shocked at? As for the Clone Wars area, it seemed rushed and pressured to get all these books out before RotS, which may have led to some of the lackluster writing.

If anyone needs to be demoted, it's those who haven't seen ROTS yet. wink

Nah, just those who havent seen RotS yet. Honestly, there's really no excuse for it at this point.
