Author	Topic: Guide to the Grand Army (Insider #84)

	"At the risk of having this taken down and used against me in evidence one day, that deployment would make most sense to me. However, I reserve the right to throw the occasional clone crew in where I feel they would be most effective, which could be anywhere, because this is simply maritime...er, space/air capability. This is consistent with my estimate planning." Well that kind of thing can be easily justified by how much of a mess the Republic military was in the early months of the war, during that time the Clones seemed to do pretty much everything, so its perfectly believable that you'd find clones in seemingly unorthodox roles later in the war. -----signature----- "Perhaps George Lucas should have copied the methods of Peter Jackson in order to make the otherworldly corruption of Anakin's soul more obvious to those who can't fill in the lines without slow-motion close-ups and pounding heart-beat sound effects"

	D'ye hear there!* I'm told that the UK Star Wars mag will be running the GAR feature, because their contract is to take the entire content from the US edition. I don't know when. But it's supposed to be coming. That is all.* (*If we're going to accommodate Fleet Junkies here, then I want proper RN pipe procedure observed...) -----signature----- Website: http://www.karentraviss.com Blog: http://www.livejournal.com/users/karentraviss/ "Karen, put that stormie down at once!"

	Wow, my Insider actually arrived on time for once in the past few years, and here's my initial reaction to the GGAR: The GGAR is awesome and the most in-depth article I've ever seen on a military facet of Star Wars. There's a lot of great new information in here, including exactly who the Null ARCs are (finally!). It's nice to have a Command Structure breakdown for the GAR instead of leaving it to speculation like the Imperial and New Republic militaries have been. The article is bursting at the seams with continuity fixes that cover most of the major issues that I can think of. I throughly enjoyed the article. With this and an expanded HoloNet news article, Insider 84 is one of the best in recent memory. -----signature----- Republic Commando: Triple Zero The only Star Wars novel to have a 123 page discussion topic six months before its release.

Come my friend share this great amount of COOL information with us. Also is the General Grevious article in this issue? -----signature----- "Infidel defilers. They shall all drown in lakes of blood.

My lovely Null boys were a prototype batch before the Alpha batch. The Kaminoans tried to get clever and enhance the Jango genome, and it didn't go quite as planned. Of the initial batch of 12, only six clone foetuses survived to full term. Those six were trained by that ol' sweetheart Sergeant Kal Skirata. Two of them, N-10 (Jaing) and N-6 (Kom'rk) were the Clone Intelligence Units who located General Grievous. The lads were the best black ops men this side of the Black Stump, but completely off the wall and loyal only to Kal. Damn, I'm proud of those boys!

	No, the Grevious article isn't in this one. And while I don't feel like writing a summary of the entire article, I will mention a small detail I found facinating: EDIT: Bah, look up. -----signature----- Republic Commando: Triple Zero The only Star Wars novel to have a 123 page discussion topic six months before its release.

Does he have a "Mando skull" on his shoulder or so, in honor of his name-giver Master Jaing? (again, I have in one of my fanfics an ARC-Trooper named Jaing as well, lol) And Kom'rk, the Gauntlet is nice as well g -----signature----- The other side of the NJO, featuring Mandalorians, Vong, and Peace Brigaders in a thrillride full of betrayal and intrigue...

With regards to the "clone intelligence units" part, I remember guessing as much in either this thread or the TZ one months ago. -----signature----- "Perhaps George Lucas should have copied the methods of Peter Jackson in order to make the otherworldly corruption of Anakin's soul more obvious to those who can't fill in the lines without slow-motion close-ups and pounding heart-beat sound effects"

	As much as I love NARCs already I have to post some critique: it seems the NARCs just copied their story from the ARCs. ARCs were a special batch before the regulars. now we have the NARCs before the ARCs with the same excuse as the ARCs had compared to the regulars. I hope there is more speciality about them than just this, otherwise they, though cool, seem to be just a copy of ARCs before the ARCs were made in universe. -----signature----- www.njoe.com (Govsec Author) "Less is more!"

	DarthMane2 posted: There is more right? And we have two Clones named after Great Mandalorians. Ordo and Jaing, yeah... I guess all Null-ARCs have a bigger relation to Mandos than usual ARCs, especially since they are trained under Kal. And I don't think there is more about the Null-ARCs. But we will get to know more when TZ comes out -----signature----- The other side of the NJO, featuring Mandalorians, Vong, and Peace Brigaders in a thrillride full of betrayal and intrigue...
