Okay, I can see the circumstancial evidence and the way you drew your conclusions.

I got some questions.

In the previous version of this chapter, you had Tol Skorr have the Up the Walls feat. In the current update, he doesn't have it. Your decision, or was it an involuntary omission.

You didn't give Trenox a specific number of VP. Only an "x". You've also denoted an "x" a number of other times. Does each instance mean "to be determined at a future date"?

Vulpus should also have the Starship focus and Starfighter evasion special qualities.

Alright, I talked with Tron, and Trenox is fixed, his vitality should have been 68, that has been corrected, we also stuck in a picture for vulpus.

As for up the walls, turned out tol skorr was 1 feat heavy, so we had to omit one, and thats what we went with. As for Vulpus SQs, he is a Starfighter Ace, not a Jedi Ace, so his SQs are correct.

Thanks for giving it a once-over! at this point the dark side file should be as close to perfect as we will be able to get it.

Hope everyone else gave it a look and enjoyed the new piece of artwork and the vulpus stats! we are shooting for march 1st for our Republic Politician chapter, and then, because Tron and I are ready to jump off a bridge before we do more NPC stats, we might switch to something a bit more fun for me and tron, like weapons or something. Well see how it goes! Politicians are already basically done. I think tron has like 17 to do, and I have like 5 to do. The chapter has around 50 characters, so its mostly done.

Star Wars Gamer Issue 09 page 50 has stats and write ups for Wedge (and his R2 Gate), Wes Janson, Kell Tainer, Runt Ekwesh, Garik Face Loran, thakwaash species, Myn Donos, Voort Piggy, Tyria Sarkin, Cubber, squaky, dia passik, shalla nelprin, lara notsil, and elassar targon. That covers most of the wraiths right there.

Alright, so we are getting ready to post the republic politicians chapter (only sate pestage left to write up and stat, plus we have to compile the file). So its basically done. Next month we are taking a break from NPCs (mind numbing, really) and going to do a chapter on weapons, just to change it up a bit. I think we have about 80 weapons on our initial research list. Also, we are in talks with the fine folks at www.starwarsoutsider.com to do some RPG supplements for their quarterly magazine. I believe we are going to be looking at the legacy comic book era first! So expect some fun things there. In the mean time, we are continuing to trudge forward with the clone wars D20 fan sourcebook, as well as finding artists to draw various pinups for the project. Our goal is to have an image to accompany every stat block (which means finding artists to draw those items mentioned in novels, for the most part).

Anyway, just wanted to let you all know we are getting things back on track!

Well hello everyone! Just letting you all know that we put up our Republic Politicians chapter as the latest chapter in our ongoing Clone Wars D20 Fan Sourcebook at http://www.fandomcomics.com . The chapter has 43 NPCs, many of which use the various PRCs we have created in our PRC chapter for the same fan project.

The only hiccup I have caught thus far, is that we do have one piece of original artwork that, for whatever reason, didn't make it into the file. We have a gorgeous piece of original artwork by Darth Mikus for Crueya Vandron which can be viewed separately on our website in the sketchbook gallery. though I assure you, it will be reincorporated into the file with all possible due speed. Expect an announcement here when it is added into the actual file.

Also, we recently noticed that Senator Simon Greyshade, Senator Yarua, and Aide Sheltay Retrac were not included in this chapter, expect them all to be added when we do the Republic Military section (Non-clone).

Anyway, enjoy, and be sure to let us know what you think!

Reading up on the new chapter. As for Bail Organa's entry, I came across an omission - you didn't mention anything about his infiltration during which he freed Shaak Ti, who had been taken prisoner by the Separatists. This was in Volume 6 of the Clone Wars Adventures comics, I believe.

I've noted on a few occasions, you've referred to Chi Eekway as a Twi'lek when she's really a Wroonian.

As for Tarkin, I recall in the first supplement to the Hero's Guide, there's the prestige class Imperial Moff. If anyone deserves to have ranks in this prestige, it's Tarkin. And he has all the prerequisites necessary to gain ranks in this prestige.

Was Tagge ever involved with Sienar Fleet Systems? If so, then maybe he should have a rank or two in the Sienar Fleet Engineers prestige.

In Jos Vandar's stats, you have Gamble +4 (1-2). What does the "(1-2)" mean?

Thanks for the sharp eyes, ally! Tron wil have to answer some of these, but in regards to tarkin, the stats presented are all pre-empire. Tarkin would definately GET levels of imperial moff, but the stats he has are pre-empire. As for Tagge, he worked for TaggeCo, not Sienar Fleet Systems. Tron will have to comment on the rest. Either way, great eye! Your help is always appreciated!

Ally, I could've sworn I incorporated Bail's CWA6 exploits but it's definitely possible that I didn't. It's an oversight though, if they're not included I didn't omit them on purpose, and I'll correct that when we release the full chapter (with military personnel included) May 1st.

The Chi Eekway thing is all Nar. She was one of his characters. I'm sure it was just a mistake, most likely a typo. We both tend to work from templates and he probably just forgot to change "Twi'Lek" to "Wroonian" in the stat block.

As for Tarkin, you're absolutely right - he does deserve ranks in Imperial Moff and he does indeed qualify for it. The intention of all of these stat blocks is to represent these characters as of the end of the Clone Wars / rise of the Empire. At the time of that stat block, Tarkin couldn't possibly take levels in Imperial Moff because the Empire did not yet exist. However, you'll find that he is perfectly aligned so that his NEXT level after these stats could (and is in my mind) his first level in Imperial Moff. I imagine his Episode IV version to actually be a level 19 character with 5 levels of Imperial Moff.

As for the (1-2) thing in Jos Vondar's stats...that's a typo. It's remnants of my chicken scratch used during the stat writing process. Thanks for pointing it out. I'll make sure it's removed for the next release.

Hey everyone, just wanted to let you all know that we uploaded our weapons chapter on schedule, and it contains listings for over 75 weapons used during the clone wars era! More than most other chapters we do, the weapons chapter should provide equipment suitable for most era campaigns (clone wars and later). So give it a look-see and let us know what you think!

Also in Fandom Comics news, check out www.starwarsoutsider.com, where Fandom Comics co-founder Ryan "Tron" Brooks and Tales of the Chu'unthor artist TJ Colligan are featured as artists for their first issue, which should be releasing any day now!

Sheesh, a week and change and no comments at all on this chapter? Ill even take negative criticism at this point, just let me know its being read! Its had 300 downloads this week, so I know people are at least downloading it.

Also, for you fandomaniacs (oh, I like that), Fandom Comics has been added to the guest list at www.omegacon.us which is the site for a sci-fi convention in Birmingham, Alabama st patty's day weekend, 2008. So hopefully we can see some of you out there! There will definately be more on this as we get closer to the event next year.
