A&A The Official Jason Fry Discussion Thread

All of those got run by LFL and assessed for possible inclusion in the next update.

 

To quote Greedo in A Hunter's Fate: "Cthn rulyen stka wen! Wknuto."

 

What's ETA and FFG?

 

Google is your friend.

 

How condescending. If Google had been any help I wouldn't have said anything.

 

It's the first result. "ETA" is the second one. I know that Google prioritizes somewhat differently for different people but I'm fairly confident in those two.

 

FFG is Fantasy Flight Games (current roleplay publisher)...

oh wait, Cooper already linked to that... sorry, didn't see that.... Move along now, move along...

 

That reminds me, is the star charts considered "canon" by the story group? The ones that just show the systems, not the political eras.

 

As with a lot of things, I think it's too early to answer that, and the answer may not be a simple yes/no. We'll all find out. I for one was encouraged by LFL being OK with continuing the regional sector maps.

 

Sweet. I think Filoni and Lucas reading the Atlas among other things during production adds some credibility to the thought of continuing with the use of those systems/sectors. We had two blatant sector callouts in Revival and several of the regions were mentioned on-screen (the Expansion Region, Mid Rim, Outer Rim, Wild Space, Hutt Space).

 

Well, at the very least the FFG material is continuing to rely heavily on the Atlas.

 

Just out of curiosity Jason, are the remaining Warfare cut content articles going to be published on the main Star Wars site now that the Blog seems to redirect there?

 

Don't know how the new system works. But will send the July installment to LFL tomorrow, so we'll see!

 

Thanks for the info- I'm looking forward to seeing it, hopefully!

 

What? They deleted the blog?

Pff....

 

It's just sort of been folded into the news section. All the content is still there.

 

Comic-Con!

If you'll be in San Diego, come say hi!

Here's my sked:

Fri 7/25
1p-2p DK Star Wars Booth 2913G

Sat 7/26
11a-12p DK Star Wars Booth 2913G

Or tweet at me via the link below. We'll talk Star Wars (as NDAs allow), I will soothe your canon anxieties, etc.

 

I bet "soothe your canon anxieties" is a euphemism for "hand out shots".

 

Not sure whether it would be more appropriate to post this in the Rebels thread, but Jason Fry's junior novel, Servants of the Empire: Edge of the Galaxy, has a cover:



Apparently it stars Zare Leonis, the young Imperial cadet turned rebel spy.

 

Man, you sleep late on mini-vacation up in Maine and all sorts of stuff happens.

Yep, that's Zare. He's a really interesting character to figure out, with an evolution I think readers will enjoy seeing play out. And it's been fun navigating how the series intersects with the show -- that was a new writing/storytelling challenge that I found intriguing.

Love that cover!

Other news: Next installment in Warfare Author's Cut should hit late this month, with the delay entirely on my side. But you'll get No. 11 in short order after that. Some cool classic-era stuff in these next couple of installments that I hope we'll have fun talking about.

And come visit me at SDCC!

 

Is Zare cross-eyed?

 

Another great one, Jason, though what class of ship is the Attaintor?
