I know…
Nope, no joke Tam. Thanks to the folks here who pointed out the robotic stormtroopers connection in the first place. Like I said, the info came to me just in the nick of time. So if LFL approves the nod, you guys definitely earned it.

I’d actually be surprised if it doesn’t. It’s just a small reference, and LFL hardly bats an eye at those. The Droids and the Force article, for instance, had small refs to Ronyards and the Order of the Terrible Glare, both Devilworlds stories.

Hye Abel, do you tell us whatever happened to the Moldy Crow? Kyle's new ship just seemed to appear out of no where.
My theory is that he donated it to the Jedi Academy out of the goodness of his heart

Did he have it during MOTS? Maybe it got destroyed somewhere around that time, the events of Dark Empire were occurring then.

We know it was damaged and I would guess Jan and Kyle used it to escape the Valley of the Jedi.
Kyle's ship is never shown in MotS (he uses a captured Imperial shuttle) and Mara uses her own ship, the Shryke(sp?). The next thing we know, Kyle has the Raven's Claw in Jedi Outcast.
I miss the Crow.

The Crow is damaged when Kyle is on board a giant freighter and then Jerec decides that he doesn't really need such massive crate hauling capabilities, or Kyle, and uses Force Destruction. The ship starts crashing and Kyle must rush through the passages, disconnect the docking clamps, and get to the Crow. Its a hard level sometimes. He damages ol' Moldy on his way out of the exploding hangar bay. I think he even crashes if you are playing on the Dark Side.

All I have to say is you did again Abel. I liked this one as much as I like the Mandorlian one. I really liked all the vague refences to little know sources(like Kligson and his moon). Also I can not find where it gives people respounce to the Mandorlian article you did say the was on the website right?
edit:I love this little bit "(and even wild rumors about Jedi droids named Skippy" as it made me chuckle.

No problem. You’ll just have to wait a bit, though. I did up stats for the Crow, as well as a bio for the ship on Jason Fry’s suggestion, so that’s on the menu as well.

That’s wonderful to hear, Bootleg. Thanks! A lot of research went into the Droids and the Force piece, so it’s nice to hear that some folks have found it as enjoyable as the History of the Mandalorians, which is generally a more popular subject.
“I really liked all the vague refences to little know sources(like Kligson and his moon). Also I can not find where it gives people respounce to the Mandorlian article you did say the was on the website right?”
I don’t think they print letters to the editor on the online supplement to Insider. You’ll find comments on the Mando piece in the letters column of the print version of Insider #81.
“edit:I love this little bit "(and even wild rumors about Jedi droids named Skippy" as it made me chuckle.”
I like sneaky throwaways like that. My favorite though was probably paying homage to the Lando Calrissian Adventures by making reference to the actual Xendor. In those novels, Lando is found of exclaiming, “Minions of Xendor!” at critical moments. In the Emperor’s Pawns piece, I contextualized the reference by remarking by who exactly the historical Xendor and his minions were.
Take care folks!
Abel
